I played a gnome sorcerer who made great use of Disappear from Relics & Rituals. A 1st level spell with a duration of 2 rounds, makes the caster invisible on the round in which it is cast and the following round, and grants a +4 to concentration check to complete casting the spell. Perfect for a...

That's cool. Thanks for the offer. I just run the WLD for my online group when we can't get anything else together for our regular campaign. Hope you get your site problems worked out.

His tastes in sports teams and music could not be farther from my own. But beggers can't be choosers. How many gamers do we get on shows like this? I hope it comes up on the show. D&D would be easy to play on the island, just number some rocks 1-20 and you have your random numbers. But now I...

Thanks for the heads-up, Treebore. The site looks interesting.

Hussar, the room descriptions would be very helpful for my online WLD game using Fantasy Grounds. Can you send them to me: jwblankenshipjr AT gmail Thanks!

Nice work. This is the first I have heard of the Gaming with Kids seminar. I'd love to hear more about it. I game with my sons, ages 8, 6, and 4. As you might expect, things are even more simplified than your ideas. For starters, we are using a C&C/D&D hybrid, basically the simplest parts of...

Once I realized what kind of baseball season the Braves were going to have, I decided that I would be satisfied if they would just hang on to a prayer of a chance at least until college and NFL football started. So college football is under way, and the NFL starts today. And the Braves lost...

My first PC in 3d edition was a gnome bard. He died in a TPK at level 2. My longest-played PC in 3.x was a gnome sorcerer. Made it to level 14 before the campaign ended. As others have mentioned, small size and CON bonus works well for arcane casters. After a level or two, most sorcerers will...

My son got the HeroScape set for his birthday, and has picked up a few expansions since then. The only use I see for d20 is to do a conversion, or just use the figures and the terrain. HeroScape somehow hits the sweet spot for bridging the gap between board games and RPGs. After showing no...

I coach my sons' little league baseball team. How is the relevant? In more ways than one. First: I used to coach with my Brother-in-law, who is a fantastic guy and knows more about baseball, and teaching it to kids, than anyone I know. He eats, sleeps and breaths it. And he is so good at...

This is a great adventure. I have had a lot of fun with it. Grab it for free while you still can.

Actually, I thought we had already made a permanent change to the name of the off topic forum: Circvs Maximvs

September: The month of WifeBlank's birthday! I suggested something similar last year. Don't know why it was not selected.

I too was concerned over the lack of love for Streets of Silver. The product info page has a preview pdf too: http://www.livingimagination.com/products_streetsofsilver.asp Of those I have read, I also like Endhome (from Barakus) and Bluffside.

I think I see your motivation here. I missed the first 2 sessions of howandwhy99's Age of Worms campaign due to my sons' baseball games. He figures if he can merge my two interests then he can get me to game more often. The idea is fun as an exercise, but of course ends up demonstrating why D&D...

Many of us are doing this over at Circvs Maximvs. That may be the reason for the low response here. Several of the participants from last year are over there. Come on over: http://www.circvsmaximvs.com/showthread.php?t=6313&highlight=pickem and for pro ball...

No tips on playing a kobold, but the stats should be easy enough to find, since the entire SRD is posted in multiple places. I like this one: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/kobold.htm Bookmark the site, there you can find just about everything from the Player's Handbook and Monster...

We just finished a campaign in Faerun that was not so high-powered. The DM stated from the beginning that all of the big name NPCs, like Elminster and such, were fables and legends that had little basis in fact. There might be a mage named Elminster, but he would not be nearly so powerful. All...

Dang, my email must have been blocked by spam filters or something. I was certain I was going to win. Congrats, pogre.
