    Death of the LGS

    In my area, the FLGS (Dragon's Keep) is great. They are very friendly. Whenever I go in with my 5 and 7 year old, they usually give them free stuff. My kids also get an allowance and if the price is close enough, the owner will sometimes discount the stuff enough so that my sons can afford...

    Death of the LGS

    Sorry man, the remote parasite (walmart) in my city pays more taxes to my local city than most other businesses and all homeowners (property taxes) combined. Another remote parasite (stouffers) pays less than walmart but still pays a lot. That money goes to our schools and other community...

    Once per day non-magical effects destroy suspension of disbelief

    It was in response to the Movie analogy. Andor was talking about his character, you responded about all the characters.

    Once per day non-magical effects destroy suspension of disbelief

    He said character not characters. You changed what he meant and then answered him. This thread started out as a shining example of how one is treated if they don't fall down and worship at the alter of 4e.

    Huge Gold Dragon #061 - D&D Miniatures Minis DDM

    The only one I don't have is the Aspect of Bahamut. I only collect the dragons. I have all the other gargantuan or larger dragons.

    Huge Gold Dragon #061 - D&D Miniatures Minis DDM

    Ok, so it is truly huge as in bigger than large and smaller than gargantuan. Not huge as in "This things is soooo huge and awesome, we are going to charge $75" Thanks,

    Huge Gold Dragon #061 - D&D Miniatures Minis DDM

    Anyone have this? I just did a random search and found this. What's it like? How big is it compared to the colossal red dragon or a normal medium humanoid like the cleric of pelor? Thanks

    3.5 or what?

    Yet when I try to create a thread in general I'm given a choice of 4e or 2e/1e/OD&D, but sadly no 3e

    You don't like the new edition? Tell me about it!

    Arcana evolved has racial levels and evolved levels that seem to work well. I would like to see something for weapons so that a sword and shield fighter is different than a sword a axe fighter. Like maybe the axe fighter can attampt to destroy his opponents shield where as the sword fighter...

    You don't like the new edition? Tell me about it!

    I remember this as well and was looking forward to it. I remember that race was going to make a difference for all classes so that an orc wizard was different than a human wizard which would be different than a dwarven wizard, etc. etc. That's too bad it's not in there. It's just another...

    You don't like the new edition? Tell me about it!

    I've been using the great wheel since the 1ed Manual of the Planes. I love Planescape and use it a lot. I liked some of the things that were added to 4ed, the idea behind minions, skill challenges, and such. But the changes they made to demons, devils, and the outerplanes totally turned me...

    Excerpt: skill challenges

    :) Overt vs covert. Bluffing the duke into thinking the threat is worse is different that I'll slit your throat if you don't help. But you get a culture where the strongest are in charge, then you must intimidate them into helping, becase that is their culture. The duke, not so. He's the...

    Excerpt: skill challenges

    I know I'm late in responding to this, and I have not read the whole thread yet, so apologies if this has already been addressed. The absolute failure in this circumstance could be that no matter what you roll and no matter who you are, the Duke does not like to be bullied. You may scare him...

    A player with a problem: Death and level loss

    It also depends on the penalty. Did you give him normal penalty (level loss), double penalize him, or triple penalize him? Double penalty: Near the end of the session, pc dies. Ok, you all killed 10K xp worth of creatures, normally divide by four, each player gets 2500 xp, but since 1 player...

    Why do all Privateer Press Minis suck so much?

    Very interesting imagery. I would think that paint stinks and bubbles easily... but I may be wrong. :)

    Dead Again

    Oh boy... I was in a group where the DM had that rule. Much lower level. I made it to 5th, died and was set back to mid 4th. Got a few unlucky rolls and died again, assassin vine crit hit and choked, from 25 hp (psion) to -10 in suprise round. New level: 4th. Died yet again, stayed at...

    D&D 4E Not going to 4e

    Our group is not going to 4e. While several of the promised mechanics sound great, we hate the flavor. We all prefer the Great Wheel cosmology (Planescape) and spelljammer. I do not like the level 30 cap either. I've converted most of the dark eight to 3e and I have them pegged around CR...

    D&DI - Lead Developer needed.

    Too bad they didn't use Java. Oh well. I would have seriously considered applying if that's the language they were using.

    Preview for the Order of Eudeus.

    I had a chance to playtest several encounters using the new classes. Lots of fun. The War Cryer has a tough job. He needs to be close enough to provide his benefits, but far enough away to avoid getting mauled. I loved his ability to bolster the troops and his comrades. I had a lot of fun...
