Encounter A2. Dungeon Arch leading into a dark corridor. Trapped. Teleportation. Nude. Back to Encounter A1. All equipment sent to the dungeon overlord. No. Save.

I usually game with friends, and we usually do stuff beyond the gaming table. I've only gamed at conventions a couple times--both, I felt, where fun experiences, but its nothing like gaming with friends. I've had my fair share of gaming with jerks over my 20 years of being in the hobby. (Heck...

Using the theories by a guy named Jurgen Habermas... Normal is what is acceptable in the public sphere and requires no further explanation in a discussion. At least in the United States, most normal and acceptable social activities have some kind of public sphere component. For example...

The Quest for the Silver Sword is kind of a neat module where the characters explore a dead wizard's keep to break a strange curse that has brought winter to the nearby village. Lot's of neat encounters with an assortment of monsters. I do, however, have a big problem with the ending... SPOILER...

Dear WotC, It's been a great 12-13 years. But now I want a divorce... ---- Something like that?

Maybe when the 4e cycle winds down WotC should just start all over with D&D, zero-hour everything, reset, and start anew with another 40 year cycle of D&D starting with a little brown box that's supposed to be a supplement for a miniature wargame... :hmm:

My homebrew campaign setting in print as the standard campaign setting for 5e! :lol:

The D&D community has always been splintered, right from 1974. I doubt Gygax and Arneson saw completely eye-to-eye (but that's neither here nor there). But the rules were open to interpretation. Each referee/DM had, and still has his or her own style of play. Each player has his or her own...

Did any module, after the Fiend Folio came out, had the players encounter the Flumph? Here's a better question: would the author of said module admit using the flumph in a published format? :p

WotC is trying to make money from the D&D brand. (well duh) Actually, I have no idea what WotC is up to. And frankly, I'm not sure if want to know. Perhaps we're all better off not knowing. I mean, seriously, why speculate? I've got to prep for my next game.

For me, edition fatigue sets in when I'm moving to a new place and have to carry all of my boxes of gaming books from each edition of D&D. ;)

No. It's time for 7e. Let's just skip a couple of editions and get to lucky number 7. :)

So Sears, Kmart, Borders, and Waldenbooks are all part of the same inbred corporation? Oh good lord.

Flumphs. Flumphs hate nymphs because nymphs overturn flumphs and then run away laughing...

WotC's recent insanity... hmmm... Who says WotC's actions have to make sense to any of us? Certainly, a lot of aging gamers are no longer part of WotC's target demographic, but does that really mean WotC is insane? Somebody else brought up a link about Games Workshop's business practices. GW...

I realized something: this thread touches upon the Great Paradox of RPG rules. Rules Lite RPG = "There's not enough rules/options for everything!" Rules heavy RPG = "AH! My creativity is constrained!" And so the cycle continues...

A little bit of column A, a little bit of column B. I, too, have noticed the acceleration of the production cycle: More splatbooks in less time, a new version ("essentials") released at a record speed, etc. But, I lean toward grognard. Let's face it: WotC did not target 4e toward older...

I felt constrained by 4e, which is one main reason I don't play it. Creating stat blocks for high level 3.5e main NPCs can certainly be a chore. My problem is that I like trying out all the options available for 3.5e. I feel like I haven't explored that system thoroughly enough. I would like...

Which means no possibility of Jar-Jar... er... Snails being resurrected! :p

It's a trap! :lol:
