Yes, I would go in a heartbeat. However, have you ever been to rotten.com? Be prepared if you do, because there are several pictures of a mid-level decaying human being there (I forget the name of the link). Don't say I didn't warn you! My point is that after having seen those pictures...

I gotta come clean on this. I am a rules-lawyer, always working every possible advantage that I can. I love to roleplay, but sometimes I do joke around a little too much during the game. If a DM knows more than I do about the 3e rules (I have yet to play with one, however), then I'll...

The art in the ELH is over-the-top. Just like the rules. That's what I expected, and I'm not disappointed with it at all, really. Is it as good as the art in the core 3? Probably not, but it's better than that in the Psi-handbook, IMO.

Oh man, there should be more of us!!! Manowar - the most underrated (and possibly best) Heavy Metal Band of the 80's! I really appreciate good metal; I'm a huge Tool fan, was big into Metallica, Maiden, Crue, etc.... And I can appreciate good glam rock like anyone else: Guns 'n Roses, Skid...

First of all, Son of Thunder, very interesting name; I'm guessing (based on your name) we probably come from the same "angle" (if my interpretation is correct). I will still probably buy the book, because as other posters have mentioned, it details things like drug addiction, soul-selling, and...

Just from what I own, here they are in order of my preference for D&D only, not d20 in general (the PHB/DMG/MM come in at # 0 and thus don't count): 1.) Scarred Lands Campaign Sourcebook 3.) Creature Collection II 4.) Traps & Treachery II 5.) Traps & Treachery I 6.) Relics & Rituals 7.) Dungeon...

I have to agree that 3e requires a lot of bookkeeping and supposedly "quick" calculations. It's especially bad for DM's who run for novice players, and have to help them make characters, run every combat, remember every modifier, etc... it's a huge chore. Even something as simple as the dodge...

I don't think anyone did it this way! Common practice was to use a d30. They are not that hard to find, are they?? [EDIT: Orco beat me to it :p ]

For the 3-man group, I would go: 1.) Human (optionally halfling or dwarf) Wizard 2.) Human (optionally dwarf or half-orc) Cleric 3.) Human Ranger (optionally ranger/fighter) That way you have arcane magic, healing, stealth, and two capable tanks.

I agree completely. The art is definitely below the level of MM1. They probably figured people will buy it no matter what. Well guess what? As far as the art, goes, I'm not as impressed as I want to be.:(

The one thing I do like about players playing 2 characters is that one of them can die and it's not that big of a deal. In fact, I wouldn't mind playing (or DM'ing) two characters who were sort of a hero_and_sidekick type of thing. The paladin and rogue is a bit much, but I could see a...

Well I am in the process of designing a very specific random encounter table suitable for 5th level characters travelling through a plains landscape, and from what I can tell, the CR's in that range are not that good. Take for example, a barghest (I think?) which has a CR of 4; yet it has DR...

I don't think I would necessarily prefer that, but if the material were good, I would definitely be indifferent about it being more generic (than crunchy). I'm a pretty die-hard Scarred Lands fan though, so I like all their setting information; but that doesn't prevent me from liking all the...

I own a GameCube also, and I've played Madden '02 on the Ps2. It was cool, but I found it slightly bland. Plus, I do not play video-games that much (still waiting for the *great* GC games to come out), and I don't have abig problem with less than stellar (Maddening) AI, especially on a...

I guess I would say I'm just the opposite; I prefer books with very little focus on rules (because I feel there are plenty of crunchy bits out there already). I'm much more interested in flavor, plot ideas, interesting NPC's and their organizations, and other creative concepts.

As for me, I find reviews supremely useful. I'm not going to stand at the game shop and try to read an entire book, or figure out if the rules make sense (but don't get me wrong, I knew immediately that Rings of Power, among other d20 books, were not for me). Thus I read reviews. I'd dare to...

C-C... Carrot Top? I-Is that you?:p

That would be so great. Some other ideas I'd like to see published: Conan Late Rennaissance fantasy (with magic, of course) Dinotopia "The Fantastic World of Anna Nicole Smith"

I have to admit that, were it not for all the people here on this thread, I never would have known this was even a joke. I mean, the demonic-looking pastor did look a little satan-ish, but seriously, the whole comic was not that far-removed from the Jack Chick crap. The references to the...
