Welp, pogie, I heeded your advice (and the advice of my editor). Repositioned the statblocks from an appendix to be included with the actual encounters themselves. I'd imagine the publisher will also offer a pdf version for download with all the stats in one handy area, as well. Salacious D

Dagnabbit pogre, I wish I would have seen this poll a few weeks ago. I just finished writing a module to be published for GenCon, and I wrestled with this very issue (among others, such as how much a gelugon's carapace weighs - but that's a topic for a different poll). I ended up sided with...

I'm in - may have others; will update the moment I know.

I'll save him the trouble - Greyhawk said it was fine to upload the files to the boards, so you'll find them under the very first post of this thread. I had to break the archive into three parts due to EN World's size constraints. I must say, Grey did an excellent job - makes it easier for...

Great idea, Double O. (1) I am willing to DM/GM. I would prefer to run D&D 3.5. (2) I have no preference on morning/afternoon. (3) I am willing to help organize/schedule/coordinate the game day (but may be unable - Phil, uncertain about the new job and what it will entail). (4) I think the...

I don't think Pemm knows, nor does Baden. Ahh, the joys of DMing. Tellerve: Would have loved to roll a few bones with you, as well. Always interested in meeting other folks that share this eccentric passion for gaming. Edit: Removed playtester request - got enough of 'em. :)

It will be called, quite simply, "Valus". We drifted away from the original name - Valusia - because such a region can be found in Robert E. Howard's works. I think it'll be on shelves in June, before GenCon, if all goes well. It's already at the printers, I know, but I'm unfamiliar with the...

Chapter IV Baden worried Ironfist would be crowded with dark faces and bitter eyes upon his departure. The walk from his den to the Cloudgate was a long one – it would feel infinitely longer should he march forward under such acrimony. Baden could face orc and troll – he had done so, many...

I would expect nothing less from the boards' resident Geezer. :) WFRP = Warhammer, right? I always was interested in Warhammer, but never got a chance to play it regularly. Maladrac (John of Pell's player) loved and played WFRP quite a bit back in the day, if I recall correctly. Glad to...

Greetings fellow bullywogs! I'm in the processing of settling into our new house in Northern Virginia and things are hectic. I've got kids crawling all over me and spend 63% of my day on hold with various utility companies. That said, I do have 'net access once again, and have blown the dust...

You're 1 for 2. :) I think he meant Vath's player, who rejoins us after a couple sessions. Actually, quite a long time passes before Vath/Brandon comes back into the fray, unfortunately. I'm still with very intermittent net access, but things should get back to normal within a couple weeks...

Sorry about that. It's really just a simple word convention. Planoth means "plane of" so Shadu Planoth is the "Plane of Shadows." Brilliant, no? The Plane of Shadows, in Ostia Prim, is coterminous with the other planes. All colors and hues are muted, of course, and the sky is streaked with...

Chapter III Moril Karrisbane, courtier of Valudia, followed the Oghmite priest down spiraling stone stairs. They passed a number of landings - each leading to vast, subterranean floors crammed with shelves holding all manner of books. Moril glanced about in a world gone black and white - he...

Should Baden have remained, he probably would have perished along with the others under Dwarfking Droggi. Note that Josh introduced Baden "after the fact" - that is, Baden had already left Axemarch under "less than good" reasons. Now, that being said, Baden's "problem" is not that he would...

You know - that's a darned tootin' good point. And I think it's one easily overlooked by many DM's, irrespective of their 'rustiness'. Kudos to Scorch for nailing it. With regard to encounters, especially random ones, I've always been a fan of: [1] Where did they (the bad guys) come from? and...

Chapter II Baden took stock of the situation: seventeen dwarves, seven serviceable crossbows – all of them of the dwarven kind*, eight hauberks, nine shields, two maces, twelve axes, and perhaps three score of unshattered bolts. Nearly the whole lot of it was bloodied, of course, but...

Senor Whitey, I'm trying to keep track which reader sent which critters. You were the minotaur man, weren't you? If so, they fared, but they did not fare well. The party pretty much chewed them up, though a couple did get in decent charge attacks before dying. Don't want to get into the...

Chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin? You nailed it. (That movie, incidentally, still scares the absolute hell out of me.) D

Remember the end of the Ferris Bueller movie? The credits are rolling and suddenly there's Ferris, taking a shower, asking you why you're still watching? He says, "It's over. Go home!" or something like that? It's sorta the same thing here - this thread is dead, Ned. If you've reached this...

Chapter I “I would rather have noise and thunder and storm-curses than this cautious, uncertain feline repose; and among all my minions, I hate most of all soft-walkers and half-and-halfers and thinking, hesitating puppets. Steal, I say, only when you cannot plunder! Revel in warfare as a...
