I'm interested.. but 1) I've only played M&M once and the GM took care of all the numbers for me. 2) I've never played by post before. However, I have been playing RPGs for... ever really. Plus, I have in mind the type of character I would like to play. But if you are looking for experienced...

From what I gathered from the rules, if Character A (a rogue) is attacking The Opponent with a melee weapon while Character B (also a rogue) is behind him, then Character A gets a flanking bonus and Character B gets Sneak Attack die. I would imagine if Character B is behind The Opponent, albeit...

Correct, IMO. The amount listed is the suggested wealth a character of that level might have for purposes of determining starting funds and equipping that character. It only applies if you are creating the character at that level. I use to think that this was the maximum amount of cash a...

Silly me... I almost forgot about Thief and Thief II. You actually need to make RL listen checks for Thief II. Heh.

Not sure if it counts as to what you were looking for, but American McGee's Alice is on my top five list of all time favorite games.

I would avoid Shadowdale altogether. Aside from it being the home of the "retired" mage Elminster (who is rarely home altogether) the only other notable feature is the twisted tower and the Old Skull Inn. Actually, I have a 1st level campaign that came from the 2e Forgotten Realms boxed set. It...

Looks like all my favorite choices are already represented. The Immortal - couldn't hold my interest long enough for me to stay awake when it came on late at night on Sci Fi. Dellamorte Dellamore - Very obscure, dark comedy/romance involving zombies Two Hands - Obscure but very good indie...

I'm surprised no one else mentioned Descent to Undermountain. Is it more obscure then I thought or am I just one of the few people that actually liked it?

Hmm... maybe I'm misreading this, if so please pardon my ignorance - but are you saying that a LG Paladin would be okay with using torture or threat of torture on a goblin to coerce him? Well, no of course not. That isn't even in the text you wrote. But, it does imply that a Paladin would be "in...

This is good stuff. I'm putting this in my notebook for future citation. Mehhehheh. I would imagine that with a Cha of 1, you might be so crippled that you are filled with self doubt, are indecisive, and apathetic. I think if that were flavored enough in presentation, that might be enough to...

Well I for one am looking forward to it.

Yay! I'm on it! :)

I agree with the majority of the posters here in that Tyr would recognize that justice, in all of its cold irony, would have been met. Both clerics make a valid point, but I don't think Tyr would have cared one way or the other. If the other players were enjoying the argument, I don't see a...

Descent to Undermountain!! I still have the game somewhere, but it won't play on any system I have. Also, the Ultima series games were great. Those of you who enjoyed Ultima 5 should look into the Ultima 5: Lazarus Project using the Dungeon Siege engine. I played it a little bit only though...

My opinion, take this poster's advice. It really sucks that this has happened, but the best course of action is to give a little lenience and take a whole load of caution. Anyway, happy anniversary, and at least now you know who your real friends are.

Perhaps the wisdom in having this device is to have at hand spells that he would otherwise have to prepare. Why bother preparing Create Undead when you have a device that does it for you 5 times a day. That leaves room to prepare other spells to enhance your undead creations or maybe some direct...

Cyclops is underrated throughout the film. It seems that his purpose in the movie is to be an antagonist in the love triangle between Jean and Wolverine. Wolverine couldn't lead the team - he is a loner. He is a maverick. He practically needed a leash just to stay in check. The other members of...

Congratulations! I will be rooting for her. I'm a little jealous too. I've been dying to tryout for that show myself and I think I'd make an excellent superhero. Its nice to know that us gamers are being represented at the tryouts and on the show. Again, congratulations and good luck!!

First point to make: Quinto as Spock = Good Move, IMO. He certaintly has the look and I don't doubt he has the skill to pull it off. I agree that with today's audience, a new Trek movie will likely be stylized to produce characters that are darker and grittier. I think that they are trying to...

Was that directed to me? Because if it was, I have not received an email yet. If not, then my apologies for butting into your conversation. :P
