    Communal World Building

    The Great Puzzle Palace of Kehdribul lies nestled between the twin spires of Mt. White Top and The Sunless Peak far to the North. Kept in near constant shadow aside from a few weeks each Summer, the Great Puzzle Palace was constructed ages ago by the Wizard-Priest Kehdribul as an unassailable...

    Can't post

    I'm not trying to post anything, but every few minutes I get a pop up that looks like this: Running Chrome 23.0.1271.97 m (Up to Date Latest Version) on Windows Home Premium Seems to occur mostly when I am looking at the What's New? page. Possibly associated with the refreshing counts of new...

    Some things I've learned as a journeyman Dungeon Master.

    Don't be too hasty. There are always new GMs just getting into the swing of things. That's why so many GM books have sections on 'How to GM' after all. Even experienced GMs sometimes get into ruts or struggle to get players interested in their campaigns or worlds. It doesn't hurt to have the...

    Star Wars beginners box?

    You can if you want to but the system itself designed without minis in mind and, early reports are, that it works VERY well without them.

    Pathfinder 1E Questions about the Pathfinder Online MMO for Ryan Dancey, Mark Kalmes, or Lisa Stevens?

    Goblinworks just announced they are using the Unity Engine for the game. Why? Does this mean the game is going to browser based?

    Request for Gamma World Adventure Help

    Is anyone aware of a good, 1st level adventure for Gamma World 4e? Possibly a one-shot? We've all had the rule books for so long that the adventures provided there are pretty old hat and I haven't got enough time to really prep my own. I've googled, but keep getting outdated links or, worse...

    Pathfinder 1E Questions about the Pathfinder Online MMO for Ryan Dancey, Mark Kalmes, or Lisa Stevens?

    Yes, tell us about story. Will there be some and will it be sufficient to hold interest? How much of the questing will be really story driven and not just Collect 10 'x'. Get a 'y' and take it to 'z'. Will there be meaningful, story impacting choices? I'm not talking a morality meter, but...

    Pathfinder 1E Questions about the Pathfinder Online MMO for Ryan Dancey, Mark Kalmes, or Lisa Stevens?

    Avatar customization is always a biggy for MMOs. How customizable will a players avatar be? Dare we hope for City of Heroes levels of customization or are we talking more like 'pick one of these ten faces and go'?

    How to guard a teleportation circle

    So you aren't worried about a teleporting army, but rather random asshattery and the odd monster... Fair enough. Build a stone walled maze with only one exit and the teleporter in the center. A sufficiently complex maze will allow time to assess and prepare for the threat and the maze...

    Need ideas for 'super science' innovations in a fantasy setting

    Now that WOULD be cool. Or even jets of directed super-heated pressurized steam. Though that puts me more in mind of flight systems and potentially steam powered space flight, but again, we hit the oxygen problem. :) Everyone solves things differently. It's fun to toy with ideas. I wonder...

    Need ideas for 'super science' innovations in a fantasy setting

    I agree with all the submarine points above and I'm not really particular how it gets done, I just thought it would be an interesting idea from a 'magical engineering' standpoint. One thing to keep in mind though, once a society develops a technology that can do a given job, it is much less...

    40 Random Encounters

    Well done. Reminds me of those oddball encounters, items and NPCs from the Murphy's Rules books and articles from way back in the day. I'm especially partial to #15 for, as yet, unspecified reason. :)

    Need ideas for 'super science' innovations in a fantasy setting

    1. You need a B.I.G. gun. Ballisticaly Inserted Golems. It's a giant cannon into which you can insert a capsule containing one to three golems and their gear. The B.I.G. Gun fires the capsule deep behind enemy lines. Capsule then opens and releases the golems to wreak havoc on the enemy...

    Tell us about your favourite space RPG and why?

    And if the question had been what the best rules set was, I'd be right there with you. For that matter, you can strip the theme off of nearly any set of rules you enjoy and re-theme it for Space or any other genre. That might even be the best overall idea for satisfying a personal preference...
