I miss rolling every round for inititive. ""Oh No! If we don't go first next round, that wizard will launch a fireball and kill us all." Ahhh. Epic struggles.

Yes! I agree 100%. This system takes mass combat out of the war gaming arena an moves it to the role playing one. It rewards players for dedicating training and gold on troops while fairly reducing a multitude of random fantasy factors into a simple ratio. It is also flexible enough to...

Waldo books should not be in schools because THERE ARE NO WORDS! It contains no educational value what so ever. The reason that books like waldo are challenged is because an individual school library has a very small budget. There is no committee dedicated to deciding what books will be...

Elf? People on this board didn't know what it was! I will grant you Dr. Seuss though. But even Matchstick Men, No one heard of this movie before the summer. This is how I define "mainstream"; if I asked my mom about it, would she know it? Would my in-laws go see it? They LOVED pirates...

Yes...yes. Very Good. :D

hmmm. There was this movie with Steve Martin who played a character who grew up with a black family, so he thought he was black. It was called The Jerk.

X2 and Pirates were not on the list. If they were (and they would not be due to the fact that they have already come out) I would have voted for them. Come on man! Nothing on that list is "mainstream". Joe Nobody has no clue about "Kill Bill" or "Bubba Ho-Tep". The only reason I do is...

How about an option for "none! These movies are awful piles of dreck!!!" I mean, the only movies I am looking forward to are the ones you did not list.

I never, NEVER prepare an encounter that my players are unable to handle. But, sometimes a tough encounter can go horribly wrong due to bad rolls, poor judgment or a combination of both. Now, my players know that I will not hesitate to kill some one off in a tough fight. So they will run from...

This is funny. I was putting together a dungeon today and thought to myself "you know what I need? Green Slime!" And Ocher Jelly.

3.5 is more then just a bunch of new rules. The more I read it, them more I am impressed. Example why 3.5 is important. I JUST found out the Sorcerers and Bards can not use the quicken spell feat. I didn’t realize that applying a meta magic feat to any of their spells would make it a full...

I have never played any of them. My group can hardly find the time to play D&D, let alone some fluffy one off. That said, I have looked at some of the mini games and had ideas. There is a WW2 mini game that I could throw together a night or two of games. But that is about it. Maybe if I was...

I haven't got over the fact that Dragon no longer has "The Marvel-Phile". I subscribe on the off chance it might make a return. ;)

Let's not forget the best chess themed cover of dragon:http://www.rpgunited.com/mag/dm118.html issue 118 has a special place in my heart for two reasons. One is that it is my favorite cover. The scond is that it is the FIRST dragon mag I bought, due largly to the fact that the cover is so...

I loved this issue of Dragon. I found it very useful. A lot of my campaigns use war as a backdrop I can use a lot of this for flavor. The combat spells may be a quest item for the PC’s to help turn the tide. The History of Warfare is very interesting to me. Made me want to load up a game...

Sleep is for the weak! (I want to be weak)

I'm not entirely happy with the current state of the magazine. BUT...I think is heads and tales better then past incarnations. The magazine will continue to change and grow, it always has. While I may not care for the Poly side of the mag, I still feel I am getting my dollar wort every month...

D&D2: Snail's Revenge GAAA! That's the last thing that should happen. Producer: "So, you want to gain control of this movie and have the final say throughout the entire process. And what makes you think you are qualified to do this?" Hasbro: "We make 'My Little Pony' and 'Twister'."...
