    DDI Monster Builder

    I keep trying to be positive about WoTC's recent moves but they keep disappointing me time and again. Its more a monster viewer than a monster builder at the moment. Honestly, its just a front end to a database application with a bit of attached game logic - its not rocket science and its a far...

    D&D 4E What If?: Greyhawk 4e in 2012

    That would be my favoured option, I loved that era.

    How old is your gaming group?

    My current group (4e) is a little over 2 years old but I have been gaming with two of its members since 2e (15 years and 20 years respectively). The latter of the two is now my wife. :)

    Ampersand: 2011 releases officially gutted

    Yes folks, the sky is officially falling. I had just expected the products to be pushed back, which may yet turn out to be the case but it does look like WoTC are slowing 4e support to a trickle.

    Get a role in the new D&D movie!

    If only it had the budget of the first one. I actually quite like the 2nd D&D film, sure it's no Lord of the Rings but it was entertaining.

    City tiles master set printing problems?

    Thanks for the feedback. Having worked as a printer technician for a while I was well aware of the cause but had not seen it on any of the previous tile sets. I've resorted to using a black permanent marker on some of the more faded tiles. Not something I wanted to do but I'd rather have tiles...

    City tiles master set printing problems?

    Well the first lot went back to Amazon and as they would only refund and not replace the item I got a replacement set from another seller in the hopes that I would get a good batch. Sadly my new set has many of the same faults as the last lot. Here is a comparison between two tiles from the...

    ? for all those that use a VTT program currently

    Until recently I used Maptool for my F2F games. We all sat in the same room and hooked up one of the laptops to the TV.

    Wow, looks like a prettier version of Maptool*. (* insert VTT of your choice)

    Plot Hook Problems?

    Reminds me of an adventure I ran where I expected to be able to role play a captured bandit through several encounters in the second half of an adventure. Instead the party tied him up and gagged him leaving me with a rather dull series of encounters to run through. What I had hoped would be a...

    City tiles master set printing problems?

    Has anyone else been disappointed at the printing quality of the city tiles master set? I received mine today and its going straight back to Amazon for a replacement. Roughly a half to a third of the tiles have very washed out colours and the black areas are speckled. None of my other tile sets...

    My "Dungeon Master's Book" Is Falling Apart

    Have any pages actually fallen out yet? There was a thread somewhere saying that the binding was different to allow it to lay down flat on the tabletop and not close itself. People have reported that the book looks like its almost going to fall apart but I don't actually recall anyone saying...

    Monster vault: I has it

    Still waiting for them to be in print again and available on this side of the Atlantic ocean. Are there any monsters which have not been modified or is the all new or revised content?

    Cutting up dungeon tiles

    Yes, I already have a bunch of PDFs, mostly the copper dragon range. I used to use the images from them in Maptool. I have some printed and laminated but the results aren't quite as nice as the tiles. Back to my original post - I decided in the end to get a set of the Blue Panther tiles and I'm...

    Crayola Dry Erase Crayons FTW!

    And a single application seems to have lasted about 25 years in the case of some of my dice. :) I think I'll look out for some of those dry erase crayons, if they don't work out well on my battlemat then I'm sure my youngest daughter will find a use for them ... and we might even be able to get...

    Cutting up dungeon tiles

    One criticism I have of the Dungeon Tiles Mater set is that it has a limited range of room and corridor sizes. I was considering getting a set of these :- BP3_Dungeon Terrain ( http://www.bluepantherllc.com/images/DungTerr1.JPG ) But then it stuck me, with a second master set and a scalpel I...
