    Pay for this, pay for that? ...

    I agree. I recently looked at all the MMORPG (????) sites, and was stunned at the prices... I won't pay for any subscription based online services. The way I see it, the companies (should) make enough by selling the product to cover the cost of people using it. If not, add advertisements...

    D&D Class Survivor -- Round 1

    I'm with you on this one. Why is there ONE Asian Core Class? Why are they so powerful? I think somebody at wizards watches too much Kung-Fu.

    Just got Netflix. Name some great old movies.

    The Third Man, The General (silent), "La Jetee" (the inspiration for 12 Monkeys - be sure to get the English voice over unless you speak French: the film's visuals are key, so reading the subtitles will take away from the experience), "Hairy Knuckles" (seriously - I saw it at a film festival, so...

    D&D Race Survivor -- Round 3

    Totally agree. I think it's funny we are down to the races (sans monsters) that were in The Hobbit. Er, I mean we don't have hobbits, we have halflings... If we had hobbits someone might have to pay royalties...

    Killing things or taking their stuff?

    When I see a nest of Kobolds, I say to myself, "'tis Christmas in July! That's where it's at; I got two round shields and a great sword!" I also get up and dance like a freak. God bless Beck... (sniff).

    What's the best way to handle PC hit points/hit dice?

    If a player asks, I'll almost always allow them to reroll their hid die. That said, in the campaign I'm starting I'm considering either making all rolls that fall in the bottom 25% have one point added (i.e. d4, all 1s are 2s; d12 all 1s, 2s, and 3s are 4s) or giving max points for the first...

    Highest level reached from level 1?

    I'm one of those DMs that players (including myself, if I had two bodies that is) dread: I start a campaign with the plan that the players will level every third or fourth session, then, after (at most) six months, I get a new idea, and start over. Compounding the problem is the fact I only...

    Do you train your players?

    After reading some of the other posts, I suppose I do train players. I'd never really considered it 'training', though. I reward players more if they outwit their opponents, rather than overrun them. That said, I make it difficult for them to do either. By that, I mean I encourage party...

    NPC stats in PDF books - waste of space or useful DM's aid?

    Would like to here more about this. I voted NPCs are good. This is assuming you give said NPCs sufficiently generic backgrounds so the DM can insert them into any world he/she pleases with little effort. If they are just stat blocks, I still think it's a good idea, just follow Crothian's...

    No Cleric in my Group

    I clicked the first option, but the truth is my gaming group is half Clerics. The reason I chose option number one is this is the first group I've ever been in with any Clerics. It's kind of fun, though, because there are three of us from different religions.... A priest of the sun, an evil...
