Re: Visual Aides, Counter Collections vs. Minis. So what does everyone think about these two visual gaming devices? I have to admit I'm probably more keen on mini's, but I like the fact that counters (I'm talking about the counters produced by Fiery Dragon, for instance) are more travel...

Yea we are pretty much screwed until Q1 2004. I've also scoured the FR message boards and the response is that there will be a new 3.5 FRCS book released sometime next year. It will have updated domains and additional information about Faerun. I don't have any additional information beyond that...

Thanks FJ, the two stores near me don't seem to have it yet. I will check out the ENworld shop.

Does anyone have any idea when these products are going to be released, or where one can get them now? It looks like everyone here bought them at GenCon or got advance copies....and I don't see any news on release dates ANYWHERE. Any news would be appreciated.

I've always thought that song that was the theme song for The Wonder Years would be good. The song that goes like... What would you do if I sang out of tune? Would you get up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song I will try not to sing out of key.... Unfortunately I...

There are a number of alternatives to limes. Theres.... 1) The Subway diet. As annoying as that Subway guy is, it worked for him. 2) Eat whatever you want, but stop eating at 4pm. This means you cannot eat or drink anything but water until you wake up in the morning. You will not become a...

It's hard to respond to your post, really. Sometimes I think long-time players (I'm quite new to the game) hate new versions because it questions the old dogmas they had established in previous versions. My short response: For every problem, there is a solution. Focus on finding the solution.

Yea, you just need a change of scenery. For those interested, I probably won't run an AU game until the Diamond Throne comes out - and as DonAdam knows I'll be playing a one-shot AU game in September at a meetup, so I can get a feeling of the setting there. I don't mean to turn this into an...

Well it's too bad you don't live near Dallas, Flexor. I'm gearing up to run an AU game and I'm looking for attentive, focused players. Maybe you could move!

I don't think he needs a break. Just a new group. And probably a bigger table, so people don't hit the mini's with their dice. :p Best friends don't necessarily make the best gaming group - if you've reached a point where you want to play with focused, knowledgeable gamers that are on the...

Talon- I think the 3.5 ads were also meant to sway the people that were sitting on the fence about updating to the newest version. Essentially Dragon is saying, "update to 3.5 or else". The "or else" being that if you don't update, Dragon will become useless (or irrelevant) to you.

Hey Thrommel, thanks for all the great stuff! Not to be picky, but you might want to double check some of the character's stats you guys have. I noticed that in some cases, you guys forgot to add in the ability modifiers to the saves. For instance Sheri Willowand's Fort and Ref saves should be...

That is very cool, also because AU is such a cool setting in general. Hopefully you guys will be adventuring in that setting soon!

I think Zerakon picked up all his toys and went home.

Geez ArthurQ, you have the worst luck. Anyway, I get why RPGA would be concerned - though I think they should strive to open up the "living" settings to include more worlds, assuming they have the time, money and people to do so. But that's just my 2-cents.

Thanks Nightfall. I understand the idea behind "living" campaigns (obviously never played in one), I just don't understand why Adso sounds so upset that there might be new ones popping up. Should there only be one living game setting - Greyhawk - or is it that RPGA has no intention of sponsering...

Uh, I'm not really familiar with "living" type games, but it sounds like you are pretty angry about the implication that there would or could be other "living" game settings in the future, Adso. What's up with that?

Fine. :rolleyes: Simple explanation: the river lies between two plate tectonics. With time (ie., millions of years) the river will widen and the northern portion of the continent will begin to separate from the southern portion. Eventually the river will become a sea and look similar to the...

I don't understand why 1) you think Monte even CAN do this (licensing issues). 2) you think Monte would WANT to do this. and 3) you can't do this yourself. I understand there is a legitimate group of people that want to merge 3.5 and AU - and though I'm not one of them - but nobody has ever...
