The names in the Troll Lord Games Aihrde (formerly Erde) setting are easy enough to explain. Both the Chenault's who run Troll Lord Games were in the military and spent a number of years stationed, and as I recall, educated in, Germany. All that rich history in the german landscape is bound to...
No they don't. "Only those activities that have a significant chance of failure, as determined by the Castle Keeper, should be resolved by a dice roll."
Thats a direct quote. ^_^
Some time next year.
As to the rest of the commentary, repeating the same old tired arguments doesn't make them any more true now, than they were 3 years ago. ^_~`
And it was pointed out that this was incorrect. Gary is paid for the work he produces. Having someone 'paid' for their...
This is also incorrect.
Gary is working directly with one, I repeat one, co author on the Castle Zagyg dungeon material. His name is already quite clearly and prominently displayed on the CZ Eastmark Folio.
The further development of the Yggsburgh city modules, overseen by Gary at his...
I recall the review myself. And in answer to that critique thats been mentioned a time or two, I can say with assurance that there is only one target number, 18. Perhaps it might have been easier to phrase it as "Primes give you a +6 to your roll when factoring against the target number of 18"...
I actually tend to like Trampier's work on the DM screen much more than the original 1E cover. The figures are much cleaner and more detailed, and there is a real sense of mood and drama that the AD&D book cover doesn't quite capture. All IMHO of course. :)
Well, content wise, not yet. But style wise a fair bit more black and white ink work. Mainly since it seems to show up so much better. I have a few things in mind, but I am not fully cognizant enough of the interior contents to devise appropriate pieces.
Well of course he's being paid for his own work. Rather presumptuous to ask someone to work for free. I just pointed out that its not the only reason why he works with TLG.
Gary obviously disagrees on what the 'game deserves', as noted by his association and often mentioned approval of said...
Quite true, my argument would have been what I mentioned earlier in this thread. 'Thats awesome' or "thats horrible" is no good to me. I'm sure its going to come off wrong, in this text media, when I say I've been receiving 'attaboys' most of my life when it comes to my art. And while I can...
Well, since you said 'compare to another artist like Larry Elmore' I thought I already answered that. :) Sorry if I was unclear. This is never the best form of communication in which to express my often wandering rambles. :lol:
But, to me, a familiar style of characterization. I thought the pedantic nature of the aforementioned critique sounded familiar. Another person on another forum, known for highly illogical statements in regard to both game and art makes similar remarks. :lol:
*chuckles* Absolutely. Compare me to my friend Larry, and I will concede the mastery to him in all cases. Course, having had this discussion with him before, I doubt he'd agree on all points. ^_^
Both of these statements are incorrect and incomplete.
Gary works with TLG because he and Steve are good friends. That, first and foremost centers the core of the relationship between the two.
As for the second broad critique, this is also incorrect. It states quite clearly in the C&C rules...
Having done a thing, one is better informed of the process, than one who hasn't, yes or no? :)
Were this true, I wouldn't be looking for people more capable than myself, and there are many, to use as guides for self improvement, now would I? :)
