    [OT; PICTURE HEAVY] New addition to Djeta and MojoGMs household...

    That could explain the whole, "pirates of the Carribbean in the moonlight" thing he has goin' on. :p Actually, he's neurotic, epilieptic, and totally adorable. Heck, he even grew on Zoe! Sadly, the cats he once lived with did not fare so well. :(

    [OT; PICTURE HEAVY] New addition to Djeta and MojoGMs household...

    Djeta, it's good to hear that you're little one is improving. And as I can't let this thread pass without showing off my own little zoo, I present: Zoe, our 5 or so year old terrirer-ish SPCA dog (2 years with us) Tristan, another SPCA rescue, they think he's 3. We've had him 4 months, since...

    Disturbed Individual With Sword(OT)

    So, for those here who are from the UK, how would police there respond? Would firearms officers be allowed to shoot the individual, or would some other method be used?

    Testament from Green Ronin!!!

    But not much more, considering the successive waves of invaders and cultures that have come through Egypt since the time period covered by Testament. While the rural life patterns of Egyptian peasants have changed rather less over time, the overall culture of the place has been altered...

    [OT] What is the most "wasted" money spent on a gaming item.

    Oh yes, I had that one. Our group read it, blinked audibly, and put it down, never to pick it up again. A friend summed it up best as "All the characters try really, really hard, and in the end, Indy wins."

    Ever wonder what a cumber-jung might look like?

    Just to note, the pamphlet type books are reprints of the originals, which were gathered together into the Compendium, along with some new material. If I remember correctly, there are some things in the smaller books that did not make it into the Compendium. For example, I recollect that the...

    Ever wonder what a cumber-jung might look like?

    Sadly, there isn't any acknowledgement of the source of the images (at least not that I coukld find). On a related note to the thread title, I highly recommend Monkey God's "From Stone to Steel" sourcebook for all your historically based d20 weapoons needs. Though I don't think it has a cumber...

    Race

    In 23 years of gaming (God, do I feel old), I can remember only two members of visible minorities in my groups. One was an East Indian guy when I was in High School and the other was a Black/Dutch mixed-race fellow from Curacao during university. Having said that, St. John's was far less...

    SRD Spinoff Possibility?

    Re: Re: SRD Spinoff Possibility? Have no fear. Although Hasbro/WotC could terminate the d20 Trademark license, the OGL is basically forwver. The SRDs were released under the OGL and that cat is out of the bag for good. :)

    Why no FR-style campaign books for the World of Greyhawk

    I have also found it odd in the past that Greyhawk fans said on the one hand that the strength of the setting was the lack of confining "official" detail while at the same time clamouring for more detail and supplements. I can only assume that either: a) this represents two distinct camps...

    Testament from Green Ronin!!!

    Looks like this will be a good purchase after all. As to the "facts" of Israel and Egypt, may I suggest Israel Finkelstein and Neil Silberman's "The Bible Unearthed", expecially Chapter 2: "Did the Exodus Happen?" If nothing else, the existence of this train of thought, from within Israel even...

    Testament from Green Ronin!!!

    About Egypt A question for those who have this book. Is the information on Egypt more or less historical (with added magical goodness), or is it heavily coloured by the biblical accounts? In other words, are they painted as the bad guys, enslaving Israel, yadda, yadda, yadda. I am very...

    Breaking my Monster Manual NDA? Gotta share my joy...

    I too believe that what was actually promised was clearer presentation and an effort to keep stat blocks from being split up. One monster per page is nice and all, but I would rather have more monsters per book with the same page count than have "one per page" set in stone. I find that some...

    Mongoose's Cyberpunk? Details anyone?

    What excatly do they need to clarify? Its an OGL-only, full RPG using the d20 system (but without the d20 logo) to allow play in a cyberpunk genre world. If there are issues over the tradmark of cyberpunk by R. Talsorian, they are between the two companies. It has nothing to do with us. If the...

    Mongoose's Cyberpunk? Details anyone?

    Actually, that book predates the change to the d20 Trademark License that prohibits the use of the term Core Rulebook. In fact, it was because of books like this one that Wizards changed the d20STL to prohibit the use of the term. Wizards felt that there might be confusion over what actually...

    Mongoose's Cyberpunk? Details anyone?

    The book is obviously not being released under the d20STL, only the OGL. That much is plain from the fact that it says you only need the one book to play. Therefore they can call it a Core Rulebook and not claim the need for a WotC book. What is less clear is whether they can use "d20". Wizards...
