    When will PDFs be over?

    I had a brief foray into the publishing world. The short version is that's what people buy. * people don't buy print on demand. They just don't. In a lot of cases it works out cheaper than a regular book, but for whatever reason there's this big gap when it comes to print on demand. Its...

    The I'm not jealous of Gen Con attendees AT ALL thread

    I wonder how many of those guys will be keeping up with Gen Con on their blackberries......

    The I'm not jealous of Gen Con attendees AT ALL thread

    In this thread we shall post how totally non jealous we are of everyone going to Gen Con. I, for example, will be re-organizing my gaming bookshelf by publication date. I await the execution of this activity with great anticipation and I'm sure it will be much more fun than gaming with...

    Brilliant.

    Slightly over halfway through Savage Tide (some spoilers)

    Well, it does say he's halfway through in the thread title. @Merric We'll see. Remember at this point in 3e's development we only had previews of one or two prestige classes and not many examples of mid-to-high level multiclassing. But I'm guardedly optimistic.

    Any Open Settings?

    You can quote it provided you make mention of that in your Section 15. It's professional courtesy to ask first and/or make a mention of the original source elsewhere in the book, such as the credits page in the front cover (or internet equivalent). But strictly speaking you don't have to do...

    A mean way to lure your PCs to adventure

    "Help us! Our town is being overrun by nymphs!" Of course, as I'm sure everyone knows, a nymph is a young of an insect that undergoes incomplete metamorphosis. The PCs are tasked with defending the town against giant ants, perhaps with some abberant or ooze-like template applied. I'm sure...

    B2: Keep on the Borderlands tomorrow, advice?

    I think I will try the "fast forward" idea, since I really want to read the introductory text as they approach the keep.

    Amethyst RPG Cover Art Posted (even more images)

    I was thinking the same thing.

    B2: Keep on the Borderlands tomorrow, advice?

    Heh. No, I don't, but I have a feeling that the PCs won't be wanting for carnage. I'm making them roll 3d6 in order and they have to roll for hit points. So if the dwarf has 2hp and the magic-user has 5 ... well ... guess who's the arrow shield?

    B2: Keep on the Borderlands tomorrow, advice?

    We're having a Gygax tribute game tomorrow, playing oD&D, 3d6 in order, with module B2. I'm allowing the guys to use any meta-knowledge they might have. So if they can navigate the Caves of Chaos from memory, I'll let them do it. After all, it is a tribute. I've run B2 a dozen times, so I'm...

    The Elves and the Grimlocks

    I agree. Drow are easy. You shoot them full of dead. TheSkyFullOfDust's idea will make it tricker for the PCs.

    Nice one, Pozas

    I agree. Nice work. I mean, not as good as the art in The Strategic Review, but still not bad.

    Monte Cook at it again (Will this be his take on 4e fighters?)

    Sure, Monte. Sure. ;) I have this image in my mind of Monte waking up in a cold sweat at 3am whispering, "skill resolution tables ... must ... not ... write them down!"

    People using Gary's avatar

    Yeah, using real people is kind of weird. .... what?

    Our (as in ENWorld's) tribute to Gary

    Which I find oddly appropriate. Since the list presumably includes Angelsboi, Chairman Kaga, and others that are with us in spirit, I don't see anything wrong with it.

    How much do you love Gygax?

    Yeah, me too. A few of my buddies were shocked about how surprised they were as well.

    Your group's tributes to Gary

    No date yet, but my buddies and I are doing B2 using the OD&D rules and, yes, we're using 3d6 in order. Though what I think is really going to scare them is rolling for hit points at first level!
