I'll point out that Frodo didn't resist the Ring to the end. In the end, he gave in. It was his finger being bitten off by Gollum that removed its influence. It doesn't make Frodo any less a heroic figure, but it does his story more bittersweet.

Was the launch of Enworld 2 supposed to improve site performance and speed? If so, someone screwed the pooch. Still as slow as ever.

Forget M&M...it's clumsy and awkward. Definitely D20Modern plus RPGObjects' "Blood and Vigilance" hands down.

Maybe it's me, but the groups I've played with have never had this issue. Maybe the folks I've played with are fairly good at on-the-fly math or whatever (I certainly do NOT count myself amongst those..my math is okay, but I can't complicated stuff in my head without writing it down). Usually...

D20 Modern would certainly do the job as well. Cut out the FX aspects, find stats for appropriate era weapons and there you go.

Good god. I hope they don't use anything from 4e in any "new" D20 Modern. I could see something more revised in a D20 Modern, mvoing it from a 3.0/3.5 hybrid to be firmly in 3.5, maybe cleaning up some rules. With the crap that is 4e possibly encroaching on it though, I can see the destruction...

3.5 or Pathfinder or older stuff for me. No way will I touch 4e with a 10' pole. I guess I couldn't anyway since it's not on the pea sized equipment list in the PHB. I dry heave whenever thinking about playing 4e.

Sounds interesting. I assume the book itself is available only in French? It'd be cool to give it a read. My French is okay, but very slow. Not so bad for reading though it would take me a while. And I might have issues with game-related words.... But if I were to play/run it, it would have...

What I'm seeing in many campaign settings, to a greater or lesser degree, are points at which humankind could be poised on the brink of technological breakthrough but an event or series of events occurs in which mankind's attention is shoved into dealing with these events (war on a massive...

4e is pretty funny, but it really doesn't qualify as an RPG.....

1. Look, I'm sure the OP is not asking to served/waited on hand and foot. He wants a little customer service. As in: "Hi, " salesperson turns away from PC pausing WoW, "is there anything I can help you find?" "Just browsing? Cool, please let me know if I can do anything for you." Sales...

Besides being unreasonably slow, today, I'm getting these errors on a frequent basis: "Warning: mysql_pconnect() [function.mysql-pconnect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (11) in /shop/Connections/shopdb.php on line 13" Also, I am seeing just...

I know, heaven forbid we have open and frank discussion and it may lead to passionate responses on both sides. I understand about keeping things civil so as not the offend the Grandma, but do we need to shut down exchanges of ideas and valid complaints about and for the new edition?

It would be tough for me. I refuse to play the abomination that is 4e. And thankfully my group isn't inclined to switch. But if they chose to, I'd bow out gracefully with no hard feelings. One of the group is my very good friend and the other two are pals. I'm not going to stand in the way...

4e has not found that happy medium. Instead, it is a game that could be mistaken for a video game, where everyone has KEWL POWERZ and there are no consequences for anything (being turned to stone by a medua only lasts until combat is over, please.), everything has to be cool every single level...

Anyone hear about this? I didn't see any threads on it: http://www.palladiumbooks.com/press/erickwujcik.html Erick Wujcik passed away on Saturday. Wonderful, creative guy. I have very fond memories of "TMNT and Other Strangeness" from my early days in gaming.

Actually if I owned a game store, I wouldn't be selling 4th edition at all. Any way, in any store I've worked in, you get it from the distributor, you get it on the shelves and sell it. Period.

Don't be a snitch. Buy the books if you'd like, but don't be a tattle tale. It's just a book sale, not like there's any crime being committed. Geez.

Indeed. I handle a lot of rate shopping/shipping concerns for my department at the corp I work for. On May 12th, USPS increased all of their rates, domestic and international, across the board. UPS and DHL both have monthly fuel charges that have skyrocketed in recent months, I am talking...

You could say the same about all the "omg, 4e is the rox0rs!" threads. Go away.
