Cool! I'll drop you a line in December when I get up there.

Horizon, I believe he's talking about the 9th level spell Shapechange, not the druid's Wildshape ability. Shapechange lets you change into pretty much anything other than unique creatures like Pazuzu or the Tarrasque. And Vraister is correct - I mixed up the 3.0 and 3.5 versions. It's still a...

I loved Shapechange before it got nerfed in 3.5. My epic Druid was the Scourge of Evil (tm) with that spell. You can't go wrong with dragons, especially since you can shift to adapt to the situation at hand. My favorite was Gold, although I had some good moments with Brown. However, the very...

Adventurers: OH NOES! Our buddy has been slain by the wicked wizard! What shall we do? Cleric: Fear not, my friends! I shall raise him from the dead (for the seventh time...). Wait...why isn't this working? Wicked Wizard: Bwa ha ha! I read the latest sourcebook and learned how to eat...

It really is a shame that we'll probably never be able to get legal electronic copies of the old Dungeon issues. I'd certainly buy it.

The Golden Age, by James Robinson - one of my favorite super hero stories ever, not least because of the wonderful surprise villains. Any of the Astro City TPBs; self contained with great stories and art. I particularly recommend the one about The Confessor. If you enjoyed Dark Knight...

Whatever they do with Robin, I truly hope they skip the "classic" short pants outfit. Not the worst costume ever, but right up there despite its longevity. I'd go for the Tim Drake outfit but skip the yellow lining in the cape.

You should read the GN. It's really good, and you'll see why it would make a great TV show. Now that I think of it, it would make a good RPG campaign too. Gotta work on that...

I'm not surprised to see this; Warren Ellis has a pretty large following, and the show turned out remarkably well. If WB isn't going to be smart and reconsider picking the series up it would be a great fit for Sci-Fi or FX.

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to cancel the shift I was planning on covering. Events in my personal life have made it impossible for me to make GenCon this year. Sorry... :(

Thanks to some rather bizarre (but happy) events in my life it looks like I may by moving to Auburn at the end of this year. Any ENWorlders in the area, or with any knowledge of the local gaming scene??

The control van of a Patriot missile battery. Best part was when the Sergeant Major came in, saw them, and asked what kind of character I was running.

Darn Inspired Frenzy anyway. Took my Drizzt warband out like a pack of Kobolds at the Paladin convention...

Buttercup - I'd be glad to cover that Thursday noon-2 slot that seems to be empty at the moment.

Maybe I misunderstood the example, but it looks like the mechanical sacrifice involved would be the penalties associated with the weapon. Seems reasonable to me if that's correct.

Everyone should make plans right now to take a sick day from work when the time comes and sit at home voting for Meepo over and over. Meepo must win!

That cover for the Star Wars Ultimate Missions book is almost certainly a mockup; that's the cover art from the Revenge of the Siith starter box.

According to John Ringo's home page (www.johnringo.com) there may be as many as three more books in the series. It does not, however, say anything definate.

One of the early (ie very, very bad) Image superhero comics was about a team of "superheroes" (more like government black-ops killers) who were all scientifically created undead. The title was Blood(something), if I recall.

I've read quite a few Devil's Due comics, and I think they can pull this off. If they can make "G.I. Joe" worth reading they should be able to do good things with D&D.
