Another in-game tactic I suggest is that you basically dare the npc to kill off the group. The group says, "No, we won't do what you want. You tell us what the deal is or kill us. You obviously need us for something or you would have done it yourself. So choose: kill us, tell us what you...

If he's beyond your characters ability to handle, it doesn't matter if he has the "chain gun," I mean combo-wand. The NPC can still take the group out. Your DM has created a hammer to beat your group. Is the npc showing up and wasting PCs willy-nilly or is he threatening you with the chain...

I use some flexibility. If an attempted action should use a different attribute than the rules require, I will allow substitutions. (ie leg sweep using dex). However, I will allow the choice of attribute used to defend as well, such as countering the leg sweep with dex (hops over legsweep) or...

First off, who cares about the "rule" that says it can't be done. It's there, stop meta-game thinking, and think in game how to beat it. It can be done under the rules. Munchie? Yes. Unbeatable? No. How? Check the following ideas. Shield spells counter magic missiles. Silence spells...

PJ Farmer's World of Tiers would be a great rpg setting also...

I always try to use something appropriate for the setting I'm running. Deadlands uses poker chips. I thought people might become a little concerned or upset if I brought ammunition to use as bennies for Weird Wars. :) Shell casings next time? Glass beads for fish tanks/aquariums for fantasy...

With no healer in the group, brains and stealth were the order of the day. And thanks for the goodie!

I can't tell you the number of times that has been uttered by the previous group I used to game with. :D Maybe I'm doing something wrong? :)

That's what came to mind when I thought about the After-Action Report. Hopefully HQ will be able to round up some troopers to fill out the LT's squad to full patrol status. Previous mission: D+3 (Fire in the Hole) Next mission: D+6 (The 1000 Year Reich Will Not Live)

I agree it was a fun day too. I look forward to participating again. I had fun running Weird Wars. I consider it a success if the players are groaning in agony and shouting in triumph during the course of the game. The following is the official After-Action Report of CPT Hensley, Cdr of...

He can't be tried for AWOL while imprisoned by civilian authorities. He would be dishonorably discharged upon conviction by the civilian authorities. The incident you are referring to creates an international incident. Not only will the PC committing the assaults face punishment, but his...

Seeing that there are two D&D 3E games going to be run in the morning, I decided to run something different for slot A. GM Victory Weird Wars (d20) type: RPG 6 players Although, if anyone has any suggestions for something else, I'd consider it.

Re: Re: Fevre Dream I thought they played Superworld. I could be misremembering though...

More name calling Stuntie (not original, I know) Gopher Mole Gravelbrain Dirt Farmer Rock Polisher Chip Pebble Crackhead Rubble

What? No name calling? Treehugger Weedeater Keeb Termite Stick Twig Orcbait Kindling Dutch Elm Black Thumb

Unless an emergency occurs, work won't need me, so I can definitely be there. Also, put me down for GMVictory D&D 3e Type: RPG 6 players I can run slot A and slot C. Not that I wouldn't want to participate in the convention discussion, someone will just have to fill me in later.

The Witchfire Trilogy (adventure modules), The Monsternomicon, and Lock and Load: The IK Character Primer are all excellent books. As soon as I can find/start a group locally, it will probably be the first thing I run. The company site isn't too bad and have downloads of character sheets...

I have moved into the area and am looking for a gaming group to join or start. I'm glad I checked out the boards. If I don't get called in to cover a shift, I should be able to go to the game day. I've been gaming for a long time and I'm gettin' the DTs to run/play something. :)
