    Romance & Relationships

    While the stats for the rolling pin were listed, I found that the majority of the rules dealt with psychological attacks like "Pour Diet Coke in his Tape Deck" and "Kiss his/her Best Friend". I have to applaud the Make up matrix. The way it allows you to flow from the harsh insult through the...

    Allies & Adversaries

    The specifics let me know that it is character generation game mechanics that is the problem, and not poorly developed feats, spells or prestige classes. Do you need to list every problem in the book? No, but the example you provided above was what I'd want to know about, even if it was a bit...

    Allies & Adversaries

    I must say, the list of problems is exactly what I want to know about. This kind of specifics really lets me know if the company has an idea how D&D3ed works, or if they are trying to slop the 3ed logo on some poorly reworked 2ed notes like Fast Forward Games does. ASEO out

    Swords of Evil

    Simon, I have to ask...Did you buy this book, or was this a free copy. With the junk this company produces I can't believe they stay in business. Jim Ward must have a nice cash reserve that he is bleeding dry. Hell, I offered to proofread their products for free to keep them from publishing...

    Tome of Horrors

    Tome Of Horrors - 5 Superb - deserves a 6 on a 1-5 scale ~323 page Hardback $29.95, but I'll admit that I got mine at a 20% Discount at my local game store's Annual Holiday Sale. Let me start out by saying that I have been playing D&D since '79 and that I own every First Edition product...

    Necropolis

    Questions: Is the theme of this adventure Egyptian in as far as the characters are expected to have an Egyptian background, Egyptian equipment and the like? Since this adventure is for levels 10-18, do characters need to get into that level range by having prior egyptian adventures, or can...

    Red Or White

    Red or White: 4 Good Cost $4.99 32 Pages 6 1/2 X 10 1/4 layout I believe that this company's products are sadly overlooked because of their comic book looking format. This is to bad because these are wonderful modules. Levels 5-7 Spoilers Red or White revolves around the party's...

    Race to the Yellow Lotus

    Race to the Yellow Lotus: 4, Good Simon Collins gives a good review of the background of this adventure so I won't repeat it here. Cost: $11.95 is good for a product of this size. What I liked: The PC vs. an army concept - I have always enjoyed breaking the self contained party type of...

    Queen of Lies

    Queen of Lies: 5 Superb Please read Psion's review for a synopsis of the plot of this adventure. Cost/page count is fine I liked the art by Claudio Poza but agree that the Drow looked a bit too human. The cover art by Brian LeBlank is good as well and I thought better on this product than...

    Crystal Caste's Combat Mats

    Combat Mats: 5 Superb These mats are great especially now that D&D has become a miniatures game. I have found these mats to by my choice when I'm DMing away from my house. (At home I use a 6x4 chalkboard that has gridlines on it. It is great, but not very transportable) These mats are easy...

    Fortress of the Ogre Chieftain

    Well, don't say I didn't warn you. If you would rather, you can send me $6 and I'll send you a coupon for a kick in the mouth. Sure it will hurt, but you'll save $7 off the price of this product and have the same mind numbing pain to show for it.
