Dark, creepy music I'd definitely invest in the LOTR soundtrack ( I have it and its AWESOME), and the gregorian chant is good (from what i've heard, the CD called "CHANT" is really good). In addition, if you're lookin for some modern stuff that can work, check these out: -Rammstein (for that...

Covert OPs? Although I agree that the term "strike force" conjures up images of Rambo and whatnot, there were these types of groups during the medieval/renaissance period. Take the Musketeers for example....if they weren't "strike-force-ish" than I don't know what is. Another group was the...

I have only one thing to add...I think only the One ring allowed the wearer to become invisible...I can distinctly remember that was THE trait of the One ring. Galadriel's ring allowed her to communicate telepathically( i think) and the other rings each had their own traits....you might want to...

A tad OT.... This is a tad off topic, but I was looking online and I found a rather interesting essay on Tolkien. It was written by some college guy who had to analyze Tolkien's LOTR for a course. In it, he "discovered" that Lord of the Rings is a representation of WW2. It was very interesting...

Does anyone have/know about D&D 3e/d20 rules governing swashbuckling types of adventures? I, for one, would like to try them out because they look fun. In addition, one of my PCs was trying to do this, and as I had no other rules, I had to use the D&D rules. Needless to say, after rolling many...

Thanks for the info on Gen Cons in the MA area. Hopefully I will be able to go. I do have some questions however: what exactly is it like? As I've never been to one, I'm not sure what to expect. My group plays D&D 3E and thats it. Are there fun-filled gaming sessions and informative "help"...

Hey I was wondering about Gen Con....I know its in like Milwaukee or something (someplace ridiculously far from me I might add!) and theres no way in heck I can get there for Gen Con..so I was wondering...is there a Gen Con for Boston? Or any RPG conventions? Boston I can do, Milwaukee I can't...

Website Hey guys I'm having some trouble getting onto those "official" unofficial Middle Earth conversion sites you posted.....i keep getting a 404 message of some sort or another? Is it still under construction or something?

Start playing "Bodies" by drowning pool....LOL THAT will certainly freak them out. DM: You enter a large room with dark shadows flitting about (Music) "Let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the..." LOL

Website Ok, I have a question: what's the "official" website going to be for this Middle Earth conversion? I saw like 9 sites through this thread, and I'm a tad confused as to which is the one you'll be updating and so forth. If you could put the link in a reply, that would be great. Also, has...

What to do with Silly PowerMongering PCs Alas, everyone always quotes how there is "always someone bigger and tougher than you" but I have a different viewing of this. I say "there are always surprises around every corner". Can't take care of this problem because there would be too many...

Long gaming sessions ...dontcha need to, well, you know, sleep...eat maybe? LOL how do you DO a 26-40 hour gaming session? U must have blown through like 9 quests! Thats what i call fun!!!

Hey I was wondering if anyone had The Sheens from Dragon Magazine converted to 3rd Edition or if anyone knows where I can find them. Thanks Strider

LOL just thought of another one At a gaming night a week ago, the PCs were tromping through a dungeon looking for the bodies of three wizards the Wizard Council had sent to destroy a cult. As they storm from room to room, they suddenly see a gnomish ghost come out. Here's how it played: DM...

Funny names LOL this, unfortunately, is an area where we excel! After a LONG tangent of "Your momma" jokes, a player named his halfling barbarian JaMam After whining and complaining about how much he wants to have a Roman or Greek styled campaign, a player names his fighter Testicles...

Ah, memories... In an AD&D 2nd Edition campaign, I played Terrance the Magificent, a bard, amongst a group of tough fighters. Well, the time came when our nemesi (is that even a word?) came upon us, and we started a brawl. The fighters start hackin away at the baddies, dishing out the heavy...

Well, I tend to think it will be over in one more book. From what I understand about Jordan, and from what I gather from history (i'll explain in a sec) it lends credibility to ending at a tenth book. From the historical perspective, no composer has ever made it past his 9th opus, work, whatever...

Another LOTR-inspired feat I think those two Legolas-styled feats you had were pretty balanced. The prereq's seem to make it even. I had an idea for another feat though. You know the scene where Lurtz pulls the dagger out of his leg and whips it at Strider? Well I had an idea for that.... New...

Fencing I've looked over your whole thing, and I cannot yet find any flaws with it. The whole thing seems very well balanced in my opinion. Very well done!:)
