    Straight Dope on Eberron . . .

    Hello Keith, Thanks for clearing up that misconception about the orcs as Nazis. When i read the intro the image from some game art i picked up at a convention popped into my head. There was an orc wearing a WW2 Nazi helmet and uniform and grinning evilly. I assumed the worst and thought that...

    Straight Dope on Eberron . . .

    uhhhhh, the Orcs will be the Nazi equivalents, that much became obvious to me after three sentences into the whole pulp noir thing, at least IMHO the orcs will be Nazis i was kinda perked up about this setting after all the debate had settled down the first time, but now i am totally turned...

    Accountability

    When someone contributes money to an endeavour in a public fashion (i.e. soliciting donations) there should be some accounting as to where that money is going. The difference is that no one should assume Morrus has any bad intentions for that money. Morrus has a very good track record for...

    Fuzzy Knight Endoresment :D

    check 'em out! The man (G.G.) has way with words :) seriously, check out the Knights if you are looking for a good, gaming related web comic with a fun twist. Fuzzy animals just simply work for something like this; although it beats me as to why. The world of the fuzzies provides a twist to...

    (OT) Ohio Renaissance Festival!

    My gf (non-gamer but loves fantasy books and medieval stuff) and I went last year and had a blast. The two dueling comedic swordsmen are a riot. The guy doing the tightrope act was very good (over shark infested waters to boot!). The joust was a treat to watch, the guys teaching "proper English...

    What are you going to do with the map and tiles in your DMG 3.5?

    I hate things in rulebooks that you have to tear out. Those kind of things should only be in supplements, not core rule books. I ripped out a few of the card things that came with my old FASA Earthdawn book and have regretted it ever since, the cards have long since scattered to the four winds...

    RPG Web Comic: Fuzzy Knights!

    Violet is the funniest thing, I am working on a few non-gamers who like fuzzy animals, trying to get them to read FK. I know I want a banner for my sig file as soon as they are ready, Mossfoot... gotts love Dog's lines in the latest one, "Eat peasant now?" had me in stiches :)

    Ebberron - Dragon magazine preview

    I got my subscribers' copy of Dragon in the mail today with the preview of the Eberron development artwork. I remember something being said during 3ed development about how the artwork for D&D had changed the way an entire generation looks at fantasy. This is the impression I get from the...

    Local Games Stores Are Dead!

    Oh, very well said, to operate a FLGS you must have a passion for it, it is not a way to enrich yourself. I myself find the internet a very attractive medium for gaming because I am hard of hearing and the 'net does not care whether you can hear. But I love the feel of a book in my hands and do...

    Eberron -- What do you LIKE?

    I have nothing at all against dinos, or halflings for that matter :) The art looks very nice, WotC's art dept. has still got the magic touch... The game setting looks like a rip-off of Final Fantasy, I think because the "brand manager" at WotC wanted exactly that feel to the game since...

    GenCon-less Commiseration

    I live in Central Ohio so Origins has been my big convention every year. BUT... Gencon gets moved and I was thinking I could make out there for a day trip (Saturday only). Some family friends in the Indy area from our auto racing connections... but NOOOOO, our heat pump quit during Origins and...

    [OT] Any Tour de France Fans out there?

    This is because cycling has actually had people die from drugs while participating, not just in practise like American Football, or by accident as in auto racing. They say that the best selling shirt on the internet is a yellow jersey with a map of France colored like the Stars and Stripes and...
