Man I just bought the big box of Carcassonne and it it something I have absolutely no regrets doing. I had bought the Hunter & Gatherer edition before the original and really enjoyed that. I was going through my FLGS and saw Carcassonne and was going to buy it with the first expansion. Then...

Hear, hear! *Golf Clap*

I'm a C&C convert, but still have all my AD&D books and really have no reason to get OSRIC other than the somewhat positive things I hear about it. Really though the D&D Rules Cyclopedia is on my to buy list before anything like OSRIC.

Well you could always go the dollhouse route. The cons are they are usually a little more expensive than your average dungeon sets, but the pros are the detail you get. If the price turns you off then at least mine it for carpeting and rugs. Here is a link to ½ inch stuff. I think it is close...

I think he was doing a comparison, not showing you *what else* the artist has done. By in large XKCD is filled with awesome and is even more rudimentary than Order of the Stick.

I really like it. I mean 99% of all the D&D art is what the OP likes anyway, having this 1% should be OK for those who like it. It is a very refreshing and nice change from all the muscled heroes and supercool pictures that is becoming commonplace.

It has been surprisingly difficult to find a decent game to get into. It isn't that there aren't any, it is just the groups I am not enamored with. I'm of the train of thought that no gaming is better than bad gaming. If I am not enjoying my hobby then what is the point?

Yeah I don't really like the chosen cover, but there is some time before the books release and plenty of time to come up with another cover.

Unless they are gearheads it is difficult to get anyone to try Car Wars. I mean Star Fleet Battles edge towards this area, but it isn't in the same league as Car Wars. I think it is hard to sell anyone on games like Car Wars because, the last few years, you have games just as good but much...

Hmmmm... with the renewed interest of Ogre that SJgames have had (And, potential release of a new game.) I wonder if this is to see the interest level for Car Wars? I know Steve Jackson has said that both Ogre and Car Wars are close to his heart and they will both see a re-imaging sometime in...

Pretty much this. Plus if your a Dresden fan, the RPG is tentatively scheduled for summer of 2010.

Well there was a fairly cool comic in the 80's called Zot! It was by Scott McCloud for those who ever picked up or heard of the book, "Understanding Comics" he wrote that. I really, really enjoyed Zot! and highly recommend hunting down the back issues. But before you do that, you can get a...

I am not a number, I am a free man!

I guess I should add "Hard" to "Dark", "Blood" & "Strong". ;)

Suffice to say, but I have gamed for a very long time and one of the constants are the way people name their characters. You know, it usually has "blood" or "dark" or "strong", pretty much anything that could be construed as cool I guess. I to have been guilty of looking for that cool name, not...

When I heard about this news I was totally stoked, I have all the FATE rpg's to date, but this is the book I've been mostly waiting for. :)

Well no. But for two reasons... I don't have a group to play with. And, even if I did, I had to work. Though I can't complain, I DJed a Hallowe'en party and dressed up as a Montreal Canadiens hockey player. 500 people and a really fun night more than made up for any gaming session or home party. ;)

Risking the wrath of old posters to a brand new poster, with is first post being kind'a forthright... really just do the highlighted part for awhile. Write everyday, because your a self admitted amateur writer, which no professional writer- even unpublished -would call themselves. So, write...
