There is a detailed tutorial somewhere on this site showing you how to do it. I can now wait for the said tile set to in out of print and i...

    Arcane Power: How long before the pirated copy appears

    i wish i was. I think its very likely that Hasbro will be going after any one uploading or even seeding Arcane Power if only to justify the Hasbro legal departments budgets in the next round of corporate cuts. It wont take much for a hasbro legal intern to track the IP's of early seeders. Then...

    Well the pirates are faster than amazon uk in getting out arcane power.I'm still waiting for my pre order. I wonder when we will see stage two of hasbro's legal strategy? Perhaps they will ask for a few account details and IP Addresses from the admins of enworld

    Does piracy offer anything good? (aside from the bad)

    File sharing does allow those want to get preview copies for free and all the advantages other posters have mentioned. It even has advantages for gamers who prefer to pay for their pdf's. They get cheaper and better updated products in the long run as publishers have try harder to keep their...

    PDFS--Of the WotC Court Case

    I think that rpg publishers should see pdf file sharing not as lost income but as free viral advertising. WOTC have got and continue to via the DDI a lot of money of me thanks to me seeing the prerelease copies of the core books. I buy a lot of actual books most months and i cant remember the...

    Monte Cook's new Dungeonaday.com?

    Dming the return to the temple of elemental evil put me of running dnd for years. It is a boring dungeon crawl with a paper thin plot. The only good thing about was being able to resell the module for empty quid so i guess someone likes it

    speeding up combat by halfing hit points

    I finally got to try some of the suggestions in my game last night; I reduced monsters hit points by a third and used the exploding dice mechanic. The 1/3 hit points reduction certainly speed combat up especially when the players met their first solo monster (the blue slime in KOTS). The...

    speeding up combat by halfing hit points

    the exploding dice mechanic is where if you roll the maximum damage dice say a 6 on d6 you roll again and add to the damage score and you keep on rolling to you don't roll a six. Hackmaster calls the mechanic "penertration dice" and suntracts one from any additonal damage dice. It makes fire...

    speeding up combat by halfing hit points

    thanks for all the advice guys, food for thought. I think we may be on to some by way of increasing the damage players do in combat. One of the players in my campaign has suggested using the exploding dice mechanic from Savage worlds and Hack master.
