Well, we're still waiting for our WoT GM to get off his butt and run a game, but I can tell you what I know. The GM seems impressed with the book, and I don't think it deviates too much from "standard" D20, with the possible exception of magic. (again, just my impression) One thing I'd be...

I hope Hollowfaust counts as "middle" because that's what I voted!

Well, I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but "back in the day", Expedition to barrier Peaks was a blast! :) As for introducing sci-fi into a fantasy game on multiple facets, I think that a little goes a long way, in terms of novelty. If you introduce too many sci-fi elements into...

Originally posted by dpmcalister: I beleive they mean "area" as described in the player's handbook. I don't have mine with me right now, but I'm pretty sure a 10 foot area is 2 squares, 5 feet each. It would blow up 2 squares, then, in every direction. (ouch) Originally posted by...

Actually, mixing Mecha Crusade in with Iron Lords of Jupiter sounds similar to an idea I was working on late last year. The idea is to run Mecha Crusade with the mechs powered by steam. Then introduce the Martians and their tripods from War of the Worlds in their "home turf" as bad guys...

Yay! Love your stuff! Now I really can't wait for this issue of Poly!!! (FanBoy Mode off) ;)

No Such Thing as a Coincidence? Hey Lizard, You listed Jack Vance as one of your inspirations for this mini-game. I can't help but wonder, are you the same Lizard that often writes for the Excellent Prismatic Spray? Just wondering.

Mixed Emotions! YES! YES! YES! This sounds really cool. I wonder how closely it will resemble the upcoming D20 Future (if at all)? John Carter of Mars? FLash Gordon? HG Wells? It's all good! NO! NO! NO! Another game I must run. I guess I'll add it to the other 4,563 I'm planning...

Well, I had to check "other" because there was no box for "none of these". That being said, I am looking forward to Arcana Unearthed. Oh, and the Hero book for Star Wars D20.

We play it! We love it! I've sculpted or converted over a dozen miniatures just for our campaign. Including monkeys. One of our "rotating GMs" has been running a campaign for some time now. It is really, really fun. The setting is sci-fi, but satire. The comics are pretty funny, at least...

TORG Books! (cheap) For anyone interested, I finally tracked down that site with the cheap TORG books: http://members.aol.com/asativa/resource/product.htm It's where I bought some books dirt cheap, and I reccomend it if you decide to not "go the D20 route". Good luck! :)

Sure, that clears things up a lot! Have you ever played TORG? It mixes all of the genres you mentioned, and does it really well. I ran a two-year campaign of it, and still get to play on occasion. And seeing as West End Games has gone bankrupt, and come back etc... I've found that you can...

Well, let's see... Doc Nuncheon introduced me to EnWorld, for which I am grateful. :) The poster formerly known as Fluffaderm is my wife. I have, in fact, met her in person! ;) Once a month or so, we play Pulp Heroes with Doc Midnight, Shadow64, Pirate Cat, Dave Lozzi and some other fine...

Well, last night was game night, and I think we did ok, health-wise. We cooked out on the grill (hot dogs, hamburgers) before the game, and when I got the urge to snack during the game, I busted out a bowl of grapes. One guy opted for Dorritos, but I was surprised how much everyone else liked...

Tecnodemon, What exactly are you asking for? Do you want a list of alternate settings? Do they all need to be D20? What are your requirements? You've named a bunch of good games already. Or, if you want feedback on this idea you mentioned, you'll have to tell us more about it. Steampunk...

It's in the Power of the Force sourcebook. An excellent book. Sorry, but I'm at work, so I don't have the pre-reqs handy. Have fun!

Mike, I am also in IT, and while my company is not currently hiring (lots of layoffs last year), I can tell you that the word in the Industry is that the "IT slump" is ending. Jobs should be progressively easier to get. (as opposed to last year, when it would have been pretty much...

I'll second that cheer for Paizo Publishing. The few times I've dealt with them on the phone, they've always been really polite and got things done right away. Their good attitude is one of the reasons I renewed my subscription to Dungeon. (well, that and Polyhedron rocks, but that's another...

Yeah, I went there about 10 years ago, and it was really cool. This past weekend, Gary Gygax was supposed to be there but I had to work. :( I think P-Cat may have attended, though.
