    Fast Forward Furiously Fading For Fast Freefall?

    May-August WotC Product Catalogue

    I wrote a good portion of Races of Stone, and I think I can safely say that they are not simply a rehash. I agree, Hammer and Helm is a great book, and I was fortunate enough to get to work with Jesse Decker a bit on this project. He's an extremely good designer and writer, and I was quite...

    Song of ICe & Fire RPG?

    There will be a Tri-Stat, a D20, and a diceless, apparently. Happy ASoFaI fun for everyone. :)

    Gen Con indy next year date.

    Personally, if my child misses 2-3 days of school at the beginning of the year for a family trip (especially in Kindergarten or 1st grade), I don't think it's a huge issue. If you're worried about the material they'll be covering, you simply ask the teacher. If it's an unexcused absence then...

    [Dallas Gameday] Aftermath and Commentary starts on Page 10!

    I would be absolutely no help in organizing, but we can arrange to be in Dallas for whichever date it is, even if only David and his nephew end up attending.

    Gencon Road Trippers Needed!

    David and I might be interested, if a short detour on 121 to The Colony/Plano isn't a problem to pick us up (sis-in-law lives there and might be providing babysitting). We should know by Origins if she's available to take on the kids for a few days. Would that be soon enough for you? Michelle

    Traps & Treachery has a chapter on puzzles that's pretty good.

    How to approach d20 publishers about editing?

    My standard rate has been 1 cent a word or $20/hr. If I were new to the industry, I'd probably end up working with smaller publishers on a flat fee that was significantly less, at least for a little while. As it is, I started out at $18.50 an hour a couple years ago. I don't currently have a lot...

    [Dallas, TX] Book Signing May 3rd

    You're down in Dallas now? Hey, that's really cool. My husband and I go down around Plano & Dallas every month and a half or so to visit family. I can't make it to Arlington for the signing, but it would be fun to meet you and others sometime. I went to Scarborough Faire for the first time last...

    [Gamer's Bag] GenCon Products List Updated

    Do bring some with the KODT characters on them to GenCon. I have a feeling they would sell very well. You might even be able to put an example at the Kenzer table with directions to your booth, right next to the HackMaster stuff (or the cash register). In general, I'd suggest may finding a way...

    Shadowrun D20 Conversion

    Re: Re: re: shadowrun D20 *blink* Um, you have seen Classic Battletech, haven't you? http://www.classicbattletech.com/ Far be it from me to kill a pet gripe, but just thought I'd point that out.

    Shadowrun D20 Conversion

    Okay, to add a bit of fact into this thread.... WizKids bought the SR property. They have licensed it to FanPro, who publishes the RPG. www.srrpg.com There is no 4th edition planned at this time. There is no d20 conversion planned at this time. The core books by FASA are being reprinted as...

    Things Said At The Gaming Table - Share Yours!!

    From the mouth of a third level female bard, discussing how to disable the defeated foe without killing him as she walks toward the prone foe and starts tugging at his pants leg: "Look. I've traveled all around and I've dealt with this sort of thing a lot. In my experience, men without pants...

    Anyone else bringing their kids to GenCon?

    Actually, Origins had a childcare area. From everything I've heard, the kids who went enjoyed it greatly. Then again, Origins also had a non-gaming spouse entertainment track. Much coolness. T'would be a shame if GenCon never restarts their childcare area. I have two boys, ages 4 and 3, and I...

    Advice on hiring editing and layout people?

    Same edition, just that "Classic BattleTech" is a new line, technically, so there's a boxed set to ease players in. No huge rule changes, etc., just reformatted for ease of use (and by level of rule complexity). I believe it will have some of the traditional cardboard counters in the boxed set...
