The fallacies in your logic aside, where are you getting 200 peers from? Only ~140 people agreed with your statement about Hasbro/WotC mismanaging D&D.

I see, with the multitude of deities option how do you make you deities different enough to avoid seeming like they are taken from the melting pot of gods that are found in settings such as Greyhawk, FR, and such? With the lack of distinction between animist spirits and deities, does this mean...

Hi Nathan :-) Who might the Kings of Woe be?

That is a logical way to go about it but what if your pantheon has entirely different origins such as the city gods mentioned by kenjib or all being created by some other sort of event. For example in the setting I have been pondering of late the world was originally a great, active egg-shaped...

Anyone else?

Damn you! You beat me to it. Oh well, it looks like when theCrimster starts writing logs for my Exalted game it will be the second Exalted storyhour on these boards ;) Anyway, I look forward to reading more of yours. :) May your campaign be favored by the Unconquerable Sun!

Once again, fair enough. Though I am not making light of Necromancer Game's work in any way, shape or form as I believe they do live up to a level of quality within the confines of their stated goals, I am not particularly a fan of 1st edition feel. I much prefer a 3rd edition feel with a spice...

Which is very important, I agree. However, I would also like to point out that most of the d20 companies do likewise. I really doubt that Green Ronin, Atlas, and Fantasy Flight put anything less then their undivided love and devotion to gaming in general and d20 in particular into their books.

Nightfall, Fair Enough. I had just noticed it a few times and was curious. Thanks for answering my question.

hmmmmmmmm I might have to check it out after all. How many of the new monsters are fiends of some sort?

Sounds cool. :) What is the nature of the reemerging gods? Are they the typical "Hi I am Thorax God of Insects and War" types or is there something more distinctive about them?

Actually that is quite interesting. Would you mind posting these finer details you mentioned? So would priests of the gods of the earth be just normal members of the various classes? How do wizards/sorcerers/psions and alternate forms of magic work into your cosmology?

Nightfall I have a question for you. While it is not the case here as your reply is topical and fairly relevant, why do you feel the need to post something related to the Scarred Lands in almost every thread in the General section of ENWorld even if it only barely has anything to do with the...

So what are you suggesting should be presented in this particular matter as a guide for characters who worship a particular god or collection of gods?

I would definitely be interested in taking a look at this. My e-mail is jessedn@yahoo.com if you want to send it my way. I also agree with you about Glorantha's faiths being an example of a polytheistic pantheon done right. Exalted has a similar example methinks (the recently released Games of...

Hey Scott, thanks for agreeing with me :) I have a question for you about the Tome of Horrors. What does it offer to someone who isn't neccessarily nostalgic about older editions of D&D? Anything in particular that would cause it to stand out as a book I should pick over any of the other...

As a spin-off of the recently started monotheism thread, what does everyone consider to be effective techniques for created a plausible, interesting, and innovative polytheistic religious system? What do you do to make it stand out from the grab-bag polytheistic faiths that seem to emerge from...

Well the main reason they are doing this is because the PCs are on a power level that they could basically destroy most metaplots within a few years after a campaign is started so they sort of have to keep the metaplot factor down. I think how they are handling it (by basically presenting a...

Yak Men are back! wooooo! :D
