    Not With a Bang, II: Life and Undeath Situation

    Grunlor Grunlor moves over to the door and stands by the side opposite the hinges. He will wait until the party decides a course of action, but is prepared to attack (with great ferocity [ooc: power attack for full]) whatever undead await on the other side.

    [PLOTS] The classic body-swap episode (and other wacky ideas)

    Just played in a Living Greyhawk module that used this.... What really made things difficult was that nobody's character sheets / spell lists were in the best form. A whole lot of "what does that say" and "what ability does that give you"... Same mod also had a form of the tesseract cube that...

    Fargo FLGS?

    Continuing my mission of visiting a FLGS in every city I visit for business, can someone point me to a good FLGS in Fargo, ND? I figure that a city with a large college population should have a decent selection of gaming stores. I'm also going to Bismark, though won't have much time there...

    Anybody have Masterscreen Quad from Citizen Games

    I've got the Masterscreen Quad. Works great, takes some repeated abuse. I'm still tweaking the inserts for the inside of the screen. Nice to be able to change the artwork on the outside of the screen too. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a DM screen. Much better and more durable...

    Not With a Bang, II: Life and Undeath Situation

    Grunlor Grunlor takes a pin from Calemon though puts into the inside pocket of his cape. "I'm not ready to say I'm joining you yet, but I am very interested in stopping these undead attacks. Which way is the graveyard where the clerics who are behind this are hiding?"

    Not With a Bang OOC

    I'm here and ready to go, though I'm about to go on a business trip. Don't think I'll have access to the internet until Friday. I'll try to scoot on over to the IC thread and see if there's something for Grunlor to do before I leave.

    [Feb] What are you reading?

    Just finished The Da Vinci Code. Man, what a good book. Started it yesterday afternoon, put it down to go to bed and finished it on the train on the way to work this morning. Fast read. A real "Page Turner". Highly recommended. Now, just to figure out how much of the story is actual...

    [EN World Book Club] Eragon [February 2004 Selection]

    I would. I enjoyed the book. I think it was better than "all right" but not quite "great". :) The storyline has promise and it was a fast read. It was much better than most books that I've read recently. It's also a book that I woudn't hesitate to recommend to people who don't generally...

    D&D Basic Set info

    As always, Your Milage May Vary.... :) As Merric points out, there are a few target audiences here. You (and I) were part of the target audience that bought a game (in my case [and sounds like yours too] it was the Red Box Basic Set) and read the game cover to cover before sitting down to...

    [EN World Book Club] Eragon [February 2004 Selection]

    I'm surprised about the lack of interest in discussing Eragon. Especially given the response when the book was selected. Perhaps it's as JoeBlank said in another thread, that the good books don't get as much talk as the poor ones. (If that doesn't start any discussion, I don't know what...

    D&D Basic Set info

    I think WotC had it right with the 3.0 Adventure Game (Gold Box). It was/is a great way to introduce people who have never played pen & paper RPGs. I used it to get my children & wife playing, then with some friends who have played CRPGs. In either case, if I had sat down and started going...

    Sorry, read it too fast. Wasn't sure if it was joking or if it was a comment on the selection. My bad. Thanks for clarifying though.

    I've only got a few minutes right now, but wanted to get the discussion started. I'll post more later. I finished reading Eragon just a few days ago and found that I really enjoyed the story. Its even more impressive when you take into consderation that Paolini only 15 or 16 years old when...

    Not sure where the comment is directed, but if it's regarding the date, then its no joke. The discussion period for Ergaon is slated for roughly 2 weeks, which gives partipcants one month to read the next selection.
