But do you do it as straight game mechnic as in "trained horses from region x gain +2 hps" or do you say "trained horses from the region x are much tougher"? I usually will hide bits of information like what you suggested throughout what I give them along with many things that will help to...

EXACTLY!! You have to present the information in such a way that it doesn't seem like homework or a burden. This also helps me keep track of what each character knows.

Darn boards...

Slow Board...Sorry Double Post

I also do this. E-mail/instant messenging lets me talk with each player individually away from the game. But I give them such a large handout so most of these questions are on current events happening in the game or rumors that their characters just heard and not about basic knowledge about...

Which is why Buffy worked so well and also why it is a good guide to what a good campaign should feel like. While I'm not a fan of the episodic approach to running a gaming session I do see it can be usefull, especially for beginning DM's. A campaign should change and grow as it moves along...

I use what I give them as a framework so that I can work on making a better story. If the framework is setup I have to worry about the details less. If I know that X NPC acts in a certain way and has a certain relationship with a player then when the party runs into X NPC I know exactly how...

The party is based out of Silverymoon and the current part of the campaign is going to take place almost exclusively within the city. Now the party has spent much of the time earlier in other parts of The North. They've been hunting raiders along the Silver Marches various trade routes and...

I've never really liked the whole episodic idea for gaming sessions. If you plan a specific beginning and end to each session you may finish the session very early or you might have to stop in the middle of an important plot scene because your players took longer than expected to reach the end...

I think back/history is very important to the game. THe way I do it is that each of my players has a small three ring binder. I'm running a FR campaign in Silverymoon. I have an 8-10 page insert detailing what each of their characters know about Silverymoon; taverns, inns, shops, temples...

Started playing in 1983 when I was 11. Didn't get a regular group until 1988 though.

I look at it this way. 31-39: Are people that either started playing the game in the 70's around the time it came out or started it when they went to college. 26-30: Started playing the early 80's before the whole religious right attempted to stomp out the game. 22-25: Here I think you see...

That was hilarious, especially the replies. What a friggin idiot.

Dimensional Lock and Anti-Magic Shell

One of the closest things that I found for stuff like that is from Apocalyptica. Their covers of Metallica songs are really cool.

Take a look at this page. http://www.hplovecraft.com/popcult/music.htm

SNIKT.......SNIKT You Gotta Problem With That Bub?

I've always used combo of all spellcastinmg levels unless the PrC specificaly states that it does not give +1 cast level gor each level. Unless it specificly states that they don't count towards familiar levels, count em.

They have equipment that is much more powerful than characters of their level would normally have.

I thought the graphics were actually better than the X-Box version. But that may have something to do with being closer to the screen. The controls are much easier to use than with the X-Box. I'm running a Athlon XP 2200+, 512 MB PC2700 and a 128 MB FX 5200 videocard. I only had to turn off...
