    Tell me about famous wizards in your world!

    I'm quite proud of my notes. I did them when I was in full campaign design/thesis avoidence mode. I'll post them wen I get home from work. although mine is more about current wizards. I've done the same as you with the greyhawk standards, and a little with the FR ones as well. One dwarf that...

    The Sci-Fi Channel

    Sure, but how could QL be considered anything but sci-fi? Just cos you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't part of the genre. That would be like me saying the Wheel of Time isn't fantasy...

    Black Company RPG Info

    And how cool is this book looking? Personally I'm not even a huge fan of the books. But it's looking like a nice game.

    Most Missed Defunct Gaming Magazines?

    I don't really miss most of these cos I didn't buy them at the time, but of things I've seen in back issues, I really liked old White Dwarf and Poly (both as a stand alone and as part of Dungeon). It's a shame theres no general Gamer mags around. I'd buy something that covered d20 games, Ars...

    Ars Magic 5th edition

    There's something you don't see everyday - an RPG fan complaining that the new edition was too long in coming! So what's the need for the new edition, and what have they changed? I've always wanted to play this gamr, but I suspect it requires a group of people who are more dedicated gamers...

    OLG Forum

    No, it's a smaller forum to discuss OGL/D20 games. I spend a lot of time in OGL/D20 myself. It's a good forum. Put HARN and Arms MAgica aren't OLG/D20 games and theads about CoC D20 would get even more bloked up if all CoC threads went into OGL/D20.

    2005 WotC d20 Modern product: d20 Apocalypse

    I'm not sure people have read the whole blurb. It's a 96 page book people, with THREE campaign models. If you're all about hardcore post-apocolyptic gaming, this probably ain't gonna satisfy you. So I reckon there's gonna be some expanded stuff from D20 Future. A expanded upon scavenge rule...

    Traveller t20 and d20 Future

    I'm not going to get rid of D20 Future. I want to run a sci-fi game and I want to use the D20 Modern class system, which I think is the best class system I've ever see in it's conception. I am so completely sick of classes which define the archetypes. Given that T20 uses classes more or elss...

    Using Amazon in Australia [Australian input please]

    I'm not sure I agree with purchasing power actually, but whatever. Amazon are fine, once a book is in stock. Remember you need to take postage into consideration. Books can take around 2 weeks. Never had GST or whatever slapped on for any order and never ehard of anyone getting it put on, but...

    November Issue of D20 Filtered Released

    Don't suppose you want to expand on this description do you? Supplemental material for D20 Future writen by Moridin? Or his comments on 3rd party stuff?

    Traveller t20 and d20 Future

    Ugly detail is fine! Hmmm. How much background info etc is in the book? I might have to go buy the damn thing...

    2005 WotC d20 Modern product: d20 Apocalypse

    http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/d20m/880460000 Sounds cool. I wonder if the mutations are an expansion of the d20 Future ones.

    Traveller t20 and d20 Future

    So how hard would this be to port over to Modern/Future? What are the ship construction rules like?
