    Enough webcomics don't seem to do this that I've reached three possible conclusions: a) Webcomics are harder than they look b) Webcomic artists/writers are inheriently disorganized c) I am smarter than every single webartist on the entire planet and parts of the Moon. I'm hoping the answer is...

    Older games you'd love to see an update for.

    My only reservation about Planescape: Torment, is that you would have to get the orignal voice cast. I'm sorry, but Sheena Easton is Annah. That's all there is to it. And can any true PT fan accept a different voice to utter the line: "There can not be two skies" ?

    Icewind Dale II -- any good?

    I liked it. Try this party: Fighter Fighter Cleric Cleric Rogue Wizard One of your two fighters should have a high INT to take advantage of social skills and have a decent CHA and that guy is going to be your party leader. Do not make him a paladin. I actually got by with a paladin...

    D&D over the internet

    Can anyone make a reccomendation of software that could do tabletop play over the internet? Requirements: 1) Under $25 2) Mapping and moving "minis" must be easy 3) Die rolling must be done on the DM side. Honor system is nice, but we have a player who tends to produce a lot of "heroic"...

    Union in your game

    Sigil was the City of Doors, the Cage, the place where all realties met. It was gritty and tough. You could have two Neutral Good elven wizards in Sigil and they'd still try to kill each other because they belonged to opposing factions. Sigil was mostly made up of underclass and the poor who...

    A gripe about sidequests and loot in CRPGs

    What really bugged me about that was everyone was supposed to be poor and oppressed and suffering from a horrible plauge at the start of the game. "Hey lady, why not check out that rainbarrel? It has more money in it than you'll see in a year." I know that the point of these things was to...

    Reflexive Will? Fortuitous Will?

    A friend of mine asks: ... I was stumped. Anyone hear of these things?

    Attack of the Clones DvD

    Let's get this out of the way: the documentaries are all about special effects. If that doesn't do it for you, you'll be unimpressed. No chats with the cast. No talks with the director about anything other than special effects. I have something of a deaf ear when it comes to the complaints...

    I love the internet

    Two reasons: 1) Microcultures. The ability for people of highly specific interests to meet and form bonds. It is truly magnificent that the communites we have created have brought billions of people together in a way unparalled in the entire history of humanity. The obstacles that once...

    Shackled City vs Age of Worms. FIGHT!

    Wow. Tough call. Assuming AoW continues in the level of quality I've seen so far? I'd go with AoW. Yes, it is railroady. But I fell in love with it after adventure 6 that gets tied into adventure 1. Honestly, I'd have preferred that Erik Mona would have removed his brain and inserted it...

    PC starts a buisness advice needed

    First and most important: the economics of D&D is crazy insane and makes no sense. This is critical to understand. The base unit of currency in the game is not the gold piece, it is the magic item. That's where everything flows from. Which makes running a buisness easy! Figure out the...

    Suggestions for vanilla campaign setting?

    Sure. There's a list of events with a numerical tracker going from 10 (hooray!) to -20 (whoops!) If the group advances a level or two game months pass. The tracker loses a point. You can hold it steady by killing orcs (or converting them in a peaceful/roleplay/talkie game) Give me your...

    Suggestions for vanilla campaign setting?

    Ceresco, I love you. Droopy, Vanillia - Yeah, we got that. If you ignore the metaplot you can chuck pretty much anything into ML. Maps - Check the site out, our maps are free as a gift to the children of the world. The cartography was done by Dr. Kulander who has a PhD in geophysics...
