    Would you give your 2nd level party 30 thousand gold?

    30k gp? Sure, why not? I'd presume each member gets himself some stuff, so it means 6k gp for 5 players. With six thousand gp they can't go for anything killing the plot IMO. I'd rather guess that they each go for three magic items, two for 1k and one for 4k. But maybe that's just me. Dougal

    What to read, what to read...

    Try "Fool on the Hill" by Matt Ruff. It's brilliant.

    Do you have a player like this in your group?

    Would you prefer to be described as the mysterious robed guy oder rather something Vaderesque? Or mayby something mindflayery? I am still undecided...

    Nostalgia!

    Hi there! For anyone who wants to relive the splendor of nostalgia, google for abandonia - they have tons of good old games for free download usable with dosbox. There are some interesting old RPGs there. Dougal, who dumped Diablo II in favor of UFO Enemy Unknown

    Your character does WHAT?!!!

    OD&D: The BBEG of the Campaign is introduced so that we know whom we are after for the next couple of months. While he starts giving his speech, the player with the fighter says "I throw my Bola at him, rolls a nat twenty and the BBEG fails his save. After that we had to chase his twin brother...

    Another "Have You Ever Had This Player?" Discussion

    Hi Zweihänder, there is always the chance you are gaming with someone who wants to be in the spotlight of the groups attention. Believe it or not, the longer this habit is ignored by the other players, the more drastical the ways of drawing attention will become. Take a look at an older thread...

    Public service announcement to Windows users

    I don't think that this is a step to improve things for a customer. When i wanted to patch something last week and was asked to let MS verify my license (which i did), MS told me that my license was not valid and threw me out. Next thing i did was to enquire what the hell is going on, since i...

    Do you drink?

    In germany beer counts as food, not as alcoholic drink. It's legal at age 16 - which actually lessens the "coolness" of being drunk IME. I rarely DM without beer. DMing and being sober don't mix. Plus it makes it easier for the players - so i set up TPKs and thanx to my beers the players...

    For those that drink, what's your poison of choice?

    Any german beer that still is produced after it's original recipe and not changed by some big beer company "to fit to most peoples taste". Luckily that reduced my choice of breweries to only a couple of thousand :cool: Especially "Fattigauer Schlossbräu Doppelhopfen". Although their Pils is...

    Do you have a player like this in your group?

    Sniffles, i know just a player like the one you describe. He played a barbarian, almost never spoke a word with anyone and simply rolled when it was his turn. However he seemed to have a lot of fun with it - he partook for two years. Ask Darklone about it, it was one of his campaigns. (Sadly...

    Do you have a player like this in your group?

    I made up the Charsheets myself - on Top of the first sheet are the Words "Spacemaster <Profession>" (in Arial 16 and bold). I handle _all_ tables on my own. I _do_ point every player to the line on the skill-sheet that is needed for the roll. I can not make it any easier, i'm afraid. I am...

    Great Villain Showdown [5th Round Results Posted]

    1. Wile E. Coyote - Hannibal doesn't use ACME-stuff 2. Emperor Palpatine - Vader was my favourite char in Starwars, but that stumbling scene in Episode3 (all that was missing was Annie moaning "Braaaiiinnns" when he stood up in his suit...well, that ruined him for me. George, i hate you for...

    RANT: My sister thinks you're all losers

    Mine! I want! Arbiter, sisters just get jealous about anything their brother has fun with that they can't/won't have. So since they can't have it, they try to lessen your fun. And in my experience that's true even for adult females. Example: My sister thinks that roleplaying is only done by...

    Do you have a player like this in your group?

    That sounds suspiciously like Frank who is carried to our group by someone else...but you are not playing in germany, i guess?!? Hmm, when i was a teen I played Palladium and actually liked it more than D&D? Is that it? I repent! Oh...hmm...i think you solved my problem with this. I do have...

    Do you have a player like this in your group?

    This comes exactly from the mouth of Frank. All his characters are named Frank, since he never bothers to think of a name. He rarely gets what system is being played (although we only play D&D3E, SW D20, AU and Spacemaster), he never knows, what skills his char has (he always plays either a tech...

    I like a little more science in my science fiction

    Yep, the oxidants are included and function underwater, too. But i think that WayneLigon wanted to stress that he likes that someone behind firefly obviously _thinks_ about such details, which i like, too. Thinking people are so hard to find... :] Who does a fantastic job at such details is...
