    10 years later: NOW is it time to use MTG IP with D&D?

    I would love to see WotC make setting books from MtG settings. I think the best way would be for them to create one setting book/series per block with organizations, cities, spells, magic items, and monsters. It should ignore the planeswalker, since IIRC, there aren't many, and they don't tend...

    What Supplement Monsters Deserve a Promotion to Core?

    I want to see a Tanuki in the MM... I don't expect it, but it'd be cool.

    Why are monkeys being given treasure?

    Sorry. Will have to rectify.

    Flail Snail, Grell, Giff, Myconids, Nightgaunts ( Call of Cthulhu d20 counts, right? )

    Dear WotC - You suck at names.

    Feywild bugs me. I think Shadowfell is ok, but would be better inverted. Entering the Fellshadow sounds more intimidating than the Shadowfell. The first sounds like 'evil darkness', the second sounds like 'burnt out bulbs'.

    Dragon fight

    Steak, a nice roast, BBQ Ribs, hamburger with the rest. A little chlorine is nothing that a purify food and drink won't fix. And if there's a barbarian in the party, definately eat its heart raw to gain its strength. Symbolically, even if there is no actual game-play effect.

    What is your favorite soup?

    Split Pea soup. Thick and green, with big chunks of ham and crumbled saltines. Mmmmm, mmmm good.

    Did you change your Forgotten Realms?

    I've never read the novels, don't care to, and even if I did, I wouldn't incorporate them into my game. I change/kill/erase NPCs as I see fit, all to drive a better story. And the PCs change the setting/kill or befriend NPCs even more than I do. And I changed/added features to make it even...

    Should there just be one sort of elf?

    Indeed there should. There should also be templates you can add for cultural differences. i.e. Jungle Born, for the Wood Elf, Jungle Dwarf, Arboreal Kobold, Jungle Humans, Rainforest Gnome ( damn, no gnomes. *weep* )

    Do you...

    You're thinking Count Duckula, a spinoff of Dangermouse. That quote is from Darkwing Duck, a Disney production. Just to be vaguely informative and stuff...

    Asian fantasy: Good, Bad, Impure

    It certainly helps to give the players a brain-dump of the cultural things their characters should know, as well as being forgiving during play about having to remind them. I'm technically running an 'Asian' fantasy game, though it is based on Vedic myth instead of Japanese or Chinese...

    Favorite Places to Eat

    Mmmm, getting towards lunch time. For Pizza, its hard to beat Pizza Chicago for Chicago-style pizzas around here. We have many good Sushi places around, too many to name. The Original Pancake House is my favorite for Dutch Babys and the vast array of other pancakes they offer. Bennigans used to...

    D&D 4E Will you buy 4e?

    I probably will wait a couple years, until everything I want to do in 3.5 is at least played, if not played out. Then if I like what I see in 4e, I'll pick it up, otherwise I've got many other games and systems to run.

    How were you first introduced to the roleplaying game genre?

    I saw some one of my neighbors working on his dungeon map somewhere around 82 or so, but was never allowed to play, being only 8 at the time. A couple years later I got a copy of The Sleeping Dragon, first of Joel Rosenberg's Guardians of the Flame series, and fell in love with the idea of...

    D&D 4E 4E's announcement left you in what condition? ;)

    Fatigued but Stable. Been lots of reading and following along of events. I'm also Dying to get all the 3.5 books I haven't picked up at massive discounts....

    Rules bits we already know

    While I have nothing to base it on aside from name, I suspect the Warlord will be closer to the Marshal class... And I hope the bard and gnome stay, at least in name, though I would prefer a vastly different bard and a David the Gnome style Gnome... Tom Bosley rocks.
