Hi Everyone, In our campaign, our party rogue (level 2) has aquired a new friend in the form of an attack dog as a companion. I know this is a feature normally reserved for druids and rangers, but I worked it into the story anyway. Anyway, my question is how do I figure the dog into the...

Hi Everyone, I'm in the process of preparing the battle scenarios for tonight's session and I was wondering: does anyone know of a character generator that generates the character's items (armor, weapons, etc.) as well? I've been using E-Tools, but it applies the same items to the characters...

These look pretty cool. Has anyone tried using a strong tape instead of glue for these models? Are there any disadvantages/advantages to it?

In my last session about a week ago, one of our PCs was very near death (I believe -7 hit points or so). At the time of the wounding blow, two of his companions showed up and helped him, one of which forced a healing potion down his throat. I ruled (more for the sake of the great chemistry...

Hi Everyone, Has anyone written their own Palm programs to assist them with in-game play? I am interested in finding out what pieces of software would allow me to do somehting like this. Thanks in advance!

I'd be interested in a Palm program to run my game with as well. Unfortunately, I only have an m100, which is the lowest of the line, but I'd be curious to know what programs anyone uses to run their games.

That answered my question exactly, and now for one final one: are the gloss and matte coats a spray, or are they generally painted on?

Thanks for the info. :) I used a spray primer before I painted the mini. When you suggested that I put a layer of gloss and then matt on the mini, could I use another layer of primer as the gloss layer?

Hi Everyone, I just got done painting my first miniature, and it actually turned out half-way decent! Anyway, I painted it in acrylics, and I was wondering if I should put some type of protectant on it now. For those of you that paint your minis, do you put a final layer of coating on it, or...

As far as cutting the foam, it seems that the Hot Wire is the tool of choice. Are there any alternatives? I haven't been to Home Depot yet, so I wasn;t sure on the consistency of the foam. Will a normal knife do the trick?

Or at least restrict alignments to one end of the spectrum or the other. Granted, an entire evil party will have different reasons for banding together, most likely selfish, but it can still work. A paladin and a necromancer....I just don't see that ever being feasible, especially if they are...

Thanks for the great info everyone. Mark (or anyone else that may know), what is a good base to put on the styrofoam before spray painting it? Basilisk mentoned "gesso" but I've never heard of it.

Wow, there's something I never wouldn have imagined. Does that apply to all spray paints? The reason I ask is because I was interested in using this craft spray (same design as a typical spray-paint can) that gives the subject a rocky finish, almost as if it were grainy.

Hi Everyone, I stopped by a local Warhammer shop on my lunch hour the other day and was admiring these great landscape models that were displayed. I especially like the rock formations that gave a nice depth and bit of realism to the scene on the table. Anyway, I asked the employee about...

Shalewind, I agree with you, but on the same token critical threats are increased with more die rolls as well. However, you are correct in saying that it is not balanced in respect to the experience of the character. I guess one could make the arguement that the challenges will ineveitably...

Do you use them? Have you found any that enhance gameplay? I was just curious as to how elaborate other groups get with their natural 1's and 20's. :)

Hi Everyone, I don't have my DMG or PH handy, but could anyone tell me the starting gold amount for a first level character? Thanks in advance!

Two questions actually, and an answer to either would be great. 1. Do you know where I can get pre-painted minis? Or 2. Do you know of a website that has step-by-step instructions on how to paint your minis half-way decent. (I'm not experienced at all in painting minis, but it would be nice...

Sounds interesting, although not something I'd want to try outside of experimental purposes. I think that a DM provides a certain structure, no matter how thin (or how thin they'd like they're players to believe :) ). It sounds like what you're describing are friends who co-DMed a two man...

I found it at a site called Halls of Creation. It is a collection of art by two brothers from Brazil (if I remember correctly). They did some of the artwork for Warcraft. Amazing artists.... I picked out one of their pieces and superimposed my screename over it. Not much to it, really...
