    Isn't Success in D&D Dependent Upon Murder?

    Well...yeah? I mean, it is a game primarily about killing things and taking their stuff. If you're trying to suggest that the violent themes present in most D&D games is somehow morally questionable, I'll point to my first assertion that it's a game. I've only seen D&D be morally disturbing when...

    What do you think D&D is missing?

    Of course not...that's survival :)

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    I really hate I missed it :(. Trust me when I say that I would've rather been gaming than giving some slime-ball way too much money for a new car. Oh well, I'll be sure to put a fun-filled explosion-packed game down at the next available game day. Matt

    D&D 3.x Can I find a modifiable 3.5 Character sheet?

    I've always like mad irishman's sheets. They're form fillable PDFs, though, so you'll need a full version of acrobat to save them: http://www.unc.edu/~murphy/mad_irishman/pub_dnd.html#3e_sheets_20

    How do you like your gnomes best?

    Yeah, I always thought that they should be Size: tiny, just like the gnomes from germainc folklore. I guess that's not likely to happen since they'd be LA+1?

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    That confirms it. The cars are out to get KahunaCon. The little buggers are croaking left and right! Seriously though, sorry to hear it. Good luck on your new car quest. Matt

    Please correct my understanding of a feudal army

    IIRC, they had horn, recurve bows. Very few other cultures were quite as good at killing things with a bow as the Welsh. There's just something terrifying about a 120lb yew wood self bow. As to your OP, my admittedly limited, understanding of feudal armies is pretty much in synch with what you...

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    Well, things just got worse. I have 2 projects that I'm supposed to be completing (somehow) simultaneously at work. We're supposed to be picking up our new car from the dealership during KahunaCon and as a result of the new car we are now in "super money saver mode." In short life is sucky and...

    Just popping in to say that the transmission died on our car yesterday. As a result, I'm looking for a ride from Allston/Brighton on Saturday. Matt

    DM Preparation

    Well, I'm probably the last person to talk to about prep times, since most of my home brew adventures become 20+ page documents full of room descriptions and back story, but honestly it's the only way that I can think. Here are some things that I've used both at the table and beforehand: #1...

    Sure, but we're all giving our personal experiences and others beyond the OP may like the advice as well.

    How do you ease girlfriend into gaming?

    Gee, don't let my wife catch you saying that :). I think that different people approach the game differently, and if you want to get someone involved you have to appeal to their player type. My wife's last character was a screaming, blood soaked, barbarian whose last concern was fashion sense...

    How do you ease girlfriend into gaming?

    I can't stress this one enough. When my wife and I were first gaming together, there was a guy at the table who used to nitpick every decision that she made, and fly off the handle every time she forgot a rule. Thing is, he didn't do it to anyone else. I think this behavior is probably really...

    Stupidest things PCs/DMs have done

    Was a player in a game once where the party rogue, while invisible, snuck into the middle of a secret ceremony where a child was about to be sacrificed. Made all of his hide/ms checks. Slipped up onto the altar, grabbed the child, and I quote: Problem #1: The head priest was a Medusa, a fact...

    Campaign Wiki

    I host mine on one of these $6.00 a month deals where you get a nice chunk of space, bandwidth, php, mysql, and even tomcat 5 on linux. I use the space for other stuff, so its not really all that expensive. And, I've got 100% control. Edit: Sorry, should've mentioned. My host is...
