    Gold or Silver Standard?

    I will side with China Mieville on this one: Adventurers are in it for the money and the expereince.

    Gold or Silver Standard?

    Speaking of a Gold Standard in D&D makes me want to make a joke about a certain political figure being my DM, but this is politics and a no no. In truth I think silver is best. Vikings loved hacksilver. Silver is in all the best westerns (the movies not the hotels). The best betrayals always...

    Review of the Dragonlance DVD at Newsarama!

    A massive battle between cell and computer animation brought to life on DVD! You know, this begs to be redubbed and put on YouTube.

    In the Name of the King

    Yeah, just checked, looks like FASA Studios got shut down in Sept. I remember the interview I had with them. Looks like everything was riding on Shadowrun.

    In the Name of the King

    Yeah, I forgot to include the "Studios" these are parts of microsoft that operate like little companies. Like FASA interactive. They got bought by MS and now operate as a studio, unless the new Shadowrun game bombed, then they just don't operate...

    What exactly is the deal with the 4th Edition?

    The D&D Virtual Tabletop has more in common with Microsoft Live Meeting than it does with WoW or any MMO.

    In the Name of the King

    Lookiong around, I find myself sitting in building 26 on the MS Campus. MS makes its own games but also publishes other people's games. Sort of like the way Sword and Sorcery Studios published Necromancer Games stuff for several years. The box gets the microsoft logo, and MS offers help in...

    Neuromancer is finally getting made!

    Coolest opening descriptive line ever simply because the color of a TV tuned to a dead channel has since the novel was written changed from snowy grey to perfect blue.

    D&D 4E When will 4E break?

    Another thing- everyone is looking at bloodied as this point where you get a power boost, but it also seems that it is a point where you become more vulnerable. So when you are bloodied you get a special attack, but someone might have an attack that only works when their opponent (aka you) are...

    Green Dragon

    Might I suggest: http://voxpopnetwork.com/cinemagogue/2007/07/05/more-than-meets-the-eye/ You could forward him to that review... Unless you didn't like Transformers. Then I can't help you.

    Your First Character? (with crunch)

    I will probably run a human wizard (no faster way to learn a system than to learn the magic system first). Then I'm gonna ROLL my stats and work from there.

    Rich Baker on Paladin Mounts and Multiclassing

    You missed the bit I included about a hit die limitation. Say it only works on a creature with half a paladins hit dice or something like that. It would so work.

    D&D 4E Ioun as part of the 4E core pantheon? What about Jack Vance?

    Yeah, Jack gets two seats in the pantheon. Wikipedia currently has a fairly decent summary of the Lovecraft IP status:

    Rich Baker on Paladin Mounts and Multiclassing

    You know, they can totally fix the paladin mount problem by having the ability be that whatever the paladin decides to ride as a mount gets cool bonuses. So, the paladin has the ability to point at one creature and say "I want to ride THAT!" And THAT (whatever it is depending on hit dice and...

    What Metallic Dragons do you want?

    I voted Gold, Silver, Copper, Iron, and Steel. I think they should keep the copper dragons, but get rid of Bronze and Brass, as both of those are alloys of copper with Tin and Zinc respectively. I know that Steel is an alloy of Iron, but to me it seems differnt enough to warrent its own type...
