    Download the JMS/Zabel Star Trek treatment

    I don't think I'd want a dark distopian Star Trek. Not to be insulting but anybody can write a horrible future where everything's broken and sucks. It's been classic to talk about past glories of the "Golden Age" for about ten thousand years. It's much, much harder to write about a bright...

    "But you have to admit it's a good theory. It fits all the facts right?" I'd just like to comment that I'm well aware of the idiocy of Skitha's comments. She doesn't believe it either as any halfway decent sense motive will show, she's just bored and making things up to amuse herself.

    Forgotten Heroes IC

    "I wonder. . . have any of your considered that maybe we were trying to summon this Ziffy guy ourselves? Maybe we used to all be evil. Or maybe Ziffy's really a good guy and we needed him to save the world. That would explain why I'm hanging around people like you, I was the demon's drinking...

    World at war IC

    Jaceth rides Assira towards the stables, keeping the rest of the animals in like with little more than an occaisional cluck of his tongue. Unfortunately the horses the soldiers use don't seem perfectly at ease with a predator weighing a ton and a half at close range so he ties the dinosaur up...

    "Metadesign Principles of D&D"

    In general a penalty seems to be worth about half an equivalent bonus. For instance a penalty of -4 is considered equal in value to a bonus of +2. This is because it's assumed that players will put bonuses where they are most useful, and penalties where they will have the least impact.

    World at War OOC

    I'm sort of back. However this connection is so horribly slow it takes me 20 minutes to navigate to a thread and post. Still waiting on where the stables are to put the troupe's animals. . .

    "Stuff just gets worse every place we go. First we're paying for funerals, then bandits, now evil demon overlords. It's enough to drive a girl to drinking. I hope the mages are more hospitable than those priests, not a drop of wine in the place."

    I'm afraid I'm out of the loop for a while, no more internet connection aside from visits to the library. Sorry.

    Forgotten Heroes - DnD [Back to DnD]

    Well, yeah. Hearing about medieval people's pasts? "And here's another morning where you swept the floor, then milked a goat!" Also I've lost my internet connection due to moving to where there's no DSL. I'll try to get dialup soon but for the moment I can only get online at the library once...

    D&D Political Systems

    I wonder if DnD mechanics would lead to a leadership system similar to Mortal Kombat? The big bad guy is obviously the highest level (And toughest fighter) while he's got a handful of generals who are almost as high a level to back him up. Leadership is determined by stylized duals. And in...

    Sounds like this will be interesting.

    "I don't suppose one of you gentlemen could guide me to the stable? I'm the handler of our little troop's animals."

    World at war IC

    Jaceth reins in Asirra towards the back of the group, so as to keep the dinosaur from seeming looming and menacing at close range.

    "Yeah, everybody else seems to think forgetting is a problem. I can't tell you how many drunks would consider this a blessing. I'm not sure if I do or not because I can't remember if there was anything to forget." Skitha thinks a moment. "Oh yeah, I noticed that my bag can hold more booze on...

    Should the Paladin pay for Evil Magic Items he wants / has destroyed?

    Did Gandalf start demanding that Frodo pay him his share of the value of the One Ring after he destroyed it?

    You are in charge of what WOTC puts out for DnD.

    Hmm, obviously my strategy is different from everybody else's. I'd just give the fans what they want. For instance if I want to revamp fighters, I'd just put an ENworld topic called "How would you revamp fighters?" And then after the 150 page discussion I'd copy and past it all into a book...

    World at war IC

    "Looks like this'll be where you shine first Orb." Jaceth says while still out-of-earshot of the guards. "Listen, if you think we need to cut out losses and run, drop a scarf of kercheif on the ground. That'll be our signal that we should fight our way away from here if you think they're not...
