    Happy Birthday Sagiro! Sagiro, Happy Birthday, and thanks once again for the hours of enjoyment you have given to all your readers over the years you've been documenting this campaign. I started reading not long after you first started posting, way back when, and love every minute of it...

    Eberron novels?

    Hi Keith, I was surprised to enjoy City of Towers. I've read a lot of FR and DL novels over the years, but had stopped because they had just seemed to become SOOO BAAAAD. So it was a pleasant surprise to really enjoy City of Towers. One things I noticed when I read it which caught me out a...

    I'm not your evil twin! I'm your alt, the one set up for you to argue with! :-) Anyway, hopefully I'll be finished RttToEE in about 3 weeks. Duncan

    Roll Call: calling all Australian Enworld members

    Another Canberran here. I've been playing D&D, mostly DMing, since 1983. I run a lot of Living Greyhawk games, and play in some RPGA games. Oh, and I'm soon to finish my Return To The Temple Of Elemental Evil campaign. Used to be one of many running a local convention, attended and written...

    Eberron Action Points question

    Hi, I recently got the Eberron Campaign Setting book, and I read the section about Action Points. My understanding is that you can choose to spend an action point to roll a D6 to add to your d20 roll after you make a roll (but before the result is announced). My questions - is a Natural 1...

    Why no index is new WotC books? *Update: Received "official" answer... kinda...*

    In my opinion the WotC product I know which most needs an index is the Greyhawk Gazeteer. Try to find a city if you don't know what country it's in...

    World of Warcraft rant

    I've been playing WoW since the day of it's release. I had nearly four weeks holiday in that time, during which I played a LOT. Anyway, I'm logging in from Australia. My typical time is about 500ms. I use broadband. I play mostly a horde character on a medium population server. I rarely have...

    Do you use NPC "voices"?

    I try to do some type of distinctive voice, especially if there is more than one NPC present at a time, but wouldn't be confident of carrying that same voice from one session to the next. I DM a lot of Living Greyhawk, which makes it more difficult, as an NPC could be DMed by different people...

    Object oriented adventure design

    Sounds interesteing. I started working a while ago on a program using XML to store world data. What I was aiming for mostly was an NPC database that would list from published material. Every lookup field is based on a table, so there is a list of alignments - if someone decided to include a...

    B5 The Memory of Shadows

    OK, just to clear up the discussion about B5 seasons 4 & 5, here is my understanding. I went to several conventions that had b5 cast members attending, and so I've heard this from several members of the cast. B5 was designed with a 5 year arc. The shadow war was meant to conclude at the end...

    [World of Warcraft] I've started an EN World Guild! (12-25-04)

    I would've replied sooner if I didn't spend all my time at home sleeping or playing WoW :-) I'll make a character on that server some time over the next few days and let you know what it is. Currently my main character is a level 22 Orc Warrior on a different server. Duncan

    Happy Holidays from The Gamer's Bag

    Glad to see things have turned a corner for you. Duncan Haldane (who gave the bags to his players recently, who were all very happy and surprised with them).

    New Dunjinii

    I purchased Dunjinni a couple of weeks ago. When I went to download the product it listed the number of times each version had been downloaded, and the Platinum was WAAAAAAAY higher than the gold or silver. Duncan

    I KNEW it!

    so, if our 'verse is shaped like a die, does that mean every time a barbarian gains a level another 'verse is rolled? Duncan

    Where can I find out more about the New Living Eberron campaign?

    Of course it does - I was just half asleep when I wrote it.

    Where can I find out more about the New Living Eberron campaign?

    It's not like Stamtaal is a real language. It's just a hybrid of Germanic terms - I wouldn't worry too much about it (although Schwartzenbruin does mean brown bear, as some found out too late in a recent module). I've run dozens of sessions of LG games, and I've found that the Perrenland...

    World Aids Day - remembering Angelsboi

    Well, today is December the 1st, World Aids Day (WAD). I used to be a volunteer for a local AIDS charity. I have collected money for WAD, and cared for people in the last stages of this terrible disease. But for a few years now the threat of AIDS has diminished significantly to those of us...

    [Scarred Lands] Got the Strange Lands book

    Hey Mouse, Since this is the final product planned for SL, would it be possible to offer up these dropped monsters as a web enhancement? It sounds like you already did most of the work with them, and that authours got their free copies of the book. Duncan

    Best FR Paperback Novel?

    Realms novels - the good, the bad, the terrible.... There are many, many books in the FR, as we all know, with dozens of different authors giving it a try. And the quality varies dramatically too, in my opinion. Some background - until about three years ago I bought all FR novels. I started...
