Re: A Simple Request I'll get that sorted out in time for the next update.

As I understand it, the way the full text search on vbulletin works is that everytime you post each word over 3 letters and not in its noise (common) list is added to the search engines Word List, along with info to say where in a particular post the word occurs. When you run a search something...

Just to let you know that the latest version of the Errata and QA files are available for downlaod from my website in TXT, PDF or HTML format (http://www.otherniceman.net/archives/downloads.html) As per peoples requests I have cut down on whitespace in the files, reducing the combined Errata +...

To bring it back on topic slightly. We haven't been infected, but we spent about 1 x techie day checking every single machine in the office.

2 days before my first (Paper) wedding aniversary. Must try to drop some hints :D

Morrus - Can't Hidden Fortress get copies in for you?

I am slightly confused, what extra do I have to invest to Man In Black. I have Spycraft MRB and d20 Modern MRB. Men in Black is easy to do with either of the books without breaking a sweat.

GeneTech was the setting that was removed from the Main Rule book for space reasons. Poly then printed those pages. These is about the same amount of info as the rest of the campaigns at the back of the book. At the moment I am trying to find my copy of Kromozone (Amazing Engine) to use as...

From what I remember from a thread on RPG.net should be available at the end of August. The copies they had at GenCon were a limited print run that they managed to put together specifically for the event.

Urban Arcana (for d20 Modern) has incantations. These are similar to Epic Spell Seeds. To cast you must make Knowledge (Arcana) checks with a certain number of sucesses required. Each check takes a minimum of 10 minutes (some checks take a minimum of 1 hour). It was a replacement for high level...

In D&D you have threshold (it maybe an optional rule, I can't remember), the threshold is set at 50hp, this came in 2e (IIRC). The threshold is a good way of tailoring the deadlyness of the game. In CoC it is 10, in d20 Modern it is Con D&D 50, giving a nice spread between 'gritty' and...

No, not changed over and no one in the group has brought any of the 3.5 books. Truth is we are just lazy, we are in the middle of a campaign and see no need to change over. Maybe I just getting too picky in my old age, but the only d&d thing I can see me buying in the next 12 months is...

Most of the classics are available free to download at Project Guttenberg http://gutenberg.net/index.html including all the above. If work sends me on a long train / plane journey I tend to print off just a few chapters at a time to help pass the time.

ENworld has been unavailable to me (from Home, Work, My Brother house) since Monday lunchtime (12:00 GMT) until this Morning (Thursday) 10:00 GMT. I've tried all sorts of hours from 06:00 - 00:00 GMT

From The FAQ: Q: How do you determine starting action points for a high-level character? The system on page 204 doesn't seem right. A: The action point formula given on page 204 is for NPCs. For high-level player characters, the character gets the number of action points granted by his last...

Re: Beat out Midnight??? Wow, to urban legends in one post :D As other people have point out, Midnight was never submited to the Search and Keith Baker is no releation to Rich Baker.

Keith has already put that accusation to bed. He is no realtion to Rich Baker.

In the UK there was a 'Golden Age' of the RPGA back in the mid-late 90's. We had demo groups that would go to shops and run demo games for various settings, even did some Dragon Dice and Spellfure demos. There were a few shops that had regular gaming groups, we used to put up a notice asking...
