Hi Sorry for the following rant, but just had to get it out of my system. I just went to buy the 2nd edition of the Babylon 5 RPG and because it is fairly expensive, I decided to check out a few options before I made a decision where to buy it from. I looked at the postage costs pretty...

Hi Lorath This does not really answer your question directly, I know - but 0one Games have released a number of adventures and accessories for their Seven Avengers campaign setting, which bears a very close resemblance to the world of David Gemmell's Drenai novels. Although the adventures tend...

Here's a link which will give you (warlord) a brief flavour of a few tracks of the Clash's eponymous first album (IMO the best, but YMMV): http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00002MVQF/qid=1125076873/sr=8-4/ref=pd_ka_4/202-9264909-6518233 And, I agree with other posters, DK definitely...

Unless I missed it in my quick scan through this thread, I can't believe no-one has mentioned Stiff Little Fingers yet, AFAIC the best punk band of all time (at least from their first two albums anyway). Also some other bands I enjoyed in my mis-spent youth (that I don't think have been...

I use the DL campaign setting as my standard campaign setting (and have done for the past ten years or so). Reasons why? 1. I like the epic fantasy feel - the over-arcing plots, the good vs evil theme, the focus on character and story. 2. Ansalon (never mind the other continents) has a plethora...

I have a great book - "The Origins of Rhymes and Songs" by Jean Harroween - which details several different verses, including mud and clay, iron and steel, silver and gold, and stone so strong (but no salt and pepper!). There is also an (original?) variant from the Norse Sagas which begins...

To be honest, I can't remember for sure, but I'm pretty certain it was in dollars. Frankly, I was so glad to be finished with it all, I didn't care. Simon Collins

Hi I am torn as to whether to submit this postl, since Paizo's customer service was so good to me. However, for others' information I want to impart my experience here in the Republic of Ireland with Dragon & Dungeon magazine subscriptions over the last few years. After all the problems with...

Hi I'm a psychology graduate and I have to disagree that there is only one factor behind why people are good or bad at maths. I think it's a mixture of at least two major influences on the brain: 1. Nature/Genetics - people are born with a natural proclivity to make the most of certain areas of...

Though I'm not Irish (Welsh actually), I live in Ireland, so here's a raised hand for the Republic. And for all those who didn't realise, Ireland is not part of Britain, it's a separate country. Simon Collins

Well, it seems that there are already people here with good technical knowledge. I'm not a techie myself, but I'll reiterate the offer to run any solution past the technical manager in the IT company where I work (the biggest indigenous IT company in Ireland - which, admittedly, is fairly...

Just a quick question on the server? I work in IT myself and was wondering if the two server solution being talked about was a clustered solution? If so, it would be far cheaper to buy a second processor, extra RAM, and some other redundancy features, if speed and reliability are the issue...

Joe The blurb on the Troll Lord website says that Gary did not write it: "Professionally written by Dan Cross and edited by Gary Gygax..." Cheers Simon

Hi I've been considering buying Troll Lord's 'Gary Gygax's Insidiae' but have not seen a review anywhere on the 'net for it yet. Did anyone get it? If so, what do you think? Or if you know of a review, post the link maybe. Thanks Simon Collins

That is great news - I must've been on holidays and missed it, thanks for the catch-up. Hopefully those two supplements will be released soon - the game has been languishing for a good couple of years now. Like Aaron2, I'd like to see it remain in its current form AND a decent d20 conversion -...

Hi Does anyone have any further information regarding the selling of Pendragon RPG products by Arthaus? I'm particularly keen to learn if the long-delayed 'Holy Grail' and 'Faeries' supplements are finally going to be released? Also wondering if Arthaus will release a d20 (con)version of...

Katharine Kerr is now a (IMHO brilliant) novelist. There's a link to her homepage below. Her Deverry series would make a fantastic RPG but I read she won't let anyone else write anything about the setting - real shame. Katharine Kerr Homepage Simon Collins

So rumour has it, the armour as DR system you outlined above could be the same system the SWRPG uses for VP/WP. Simon Collins
