Brilliant! Always wanted to try it.

One problem I encountered with the Ptolus Counter Collection is that I had to "reduce to fit print margins" so the images wouldn't be cut off at the bottom. The result is the tokens are slightly smaller than they should be. Although that hasn't been too much of a problem at the table, it does...

I'll make my decision when it is actually released. Until then, I play.

detect magic is a possible (but not very efficient) way to detect invisible creatures. You can't dicern the location of a magical aura (faint Illusion, in this case) until the 3rd round, and a creature could have moved by then, possibly away from the area you're concentrating on.

I'm there with the lot of ya. I ceded the DM seat to a player that wanted to try his hand at DMing and now I'm regretting it. I just tell myself I need to cut him some slack since he's making the same mistakes I did when I started DMing almost 17 years ago and instead focus on my own faults as...

I admit it was the D&D idiosyncracy-related humor at first, but now I find myself caring about the characters and story as if it was a favorite novel series :)

Frankly, I don't look at it in terms of "3rd party" and "non 3rd party". They are all stuff I can use for my favorite game. Then again, I've never been a brand name kind of person. Seriously, EyeontheMountain, you owe it to yourself to check out some stuff outside WotC. If you're worried...

Well, if we're talking strict adherence to the rules, the paladin could not have accidentally killed the person in question with non-lethal damage. Otherwise, what Halivar said. Reminds me of the scene in The Gamers where something similar to this happens :D

A. The player whose excuse for game-disruptive behavior is: "I'm playing my character." B. The GM whose excuse for running a disaster-prone campaign is: "I'm all about the story." How are they similar? How are the different? Discuss :)

I'm surprised nobody has likened him to a d20 Modern version of Nale from Order of the Stick

Lidda, she's the spunky halfling next door.

CATACLYSMS! Blackmoor (in Mystara) blew themselves up, The Anauroch desert (Forgotten Realms) was once green, THE Cataclysm (Dragonlance), the Mournland (Eberron), the ENTIRE Dark Sun world. These are some examples that come to mind. Cataclysms seem to shape D&D history too.

Well, if you are running Shackled City in the Greyhawk setting, the City of Greyhawk is a bit far for the player's needs. Many, many miles north and across the Azure Sea, to be exact. If the players need something that Cauldron itself cannot provide, there is the large city of Sasserine to the...

Dragon Half has my vote, even though it's a parody of RPGs. Note: watch it subtitled instead of dubbed, the translation is funnier, in my opinion.
