    Marvel Inc. rise the price

    5 cents is my limit for a cup of java or a funnybook. Why do they have to raise prices anyway? Okay, gotta go crank up the Model T and go home. --Tom, fatuously

    Lucas compares Revenge to Titanic?

    Considering his ham-fisted attempt to depict a blossoming romance in AotC, I don't have much hope that Lucas will jerk any tears. Not in the way he intends, anyway...some of those "love scenes" in AotC were downright hilarious. Whatever. I want more Star Wars, and it's coming soon. So...

    Dragon Tactics? Could use some brains to pick!

    I'll get on my old dragon-headed-hobby-horse and throw out my favorite "basic" tactics. They work fantastically well with the insane attack bonuses of a dragon, and they seem well-suited to a white dragon's bullying temperament. Trip (forces players to waste a move action getting up, and...

    Why No Street Dates?

    Huh, I didn't know that it costs extra. Not broken after all, I guess. :)

    TPK last night - 1st one (sniff)

    Yikes. Well, at least you warned them. ;) I'm fearing a TPK in the season premiere of my D20 Modern game next week. I've even told my players that the gloves come off this season. It's not the EL of the encounters (I'm using the Excel sheet for that), but rather the opportunities for missteps...

    The ultimate guide to D&D?

    Synonymous with "you got served." And...well...you kinda did. :uhoh: I like the idea of this book. Like many others, I don't personally have a use for it (and not considering myself a "dummy" or "idiot," I've never bought any other titles in the series), but I might like my wife to have a...

    Why No Street Dates?

    Okay, that's cool. I may not like the policy, but at least I know the release date now! :)

    Why No Street Dates?

    Hi all. I'm just sitting here after checking the d20 Past product page for the umpteenth time on amazon.com, to find that it is "not yet released." Moreover, if you scroll down a bit, amazon.com lists a publication date of April 16, 2005. The Wizards' web site lists the month of March as the...

    My meaty urologist needs a kick to the groin.

    Do you play Dragons in lair, right??

    When you said in your opening post, you made it seem like you had a problem with the outcome. If you didn't, well, that's far out man.

    Clockwork Orange

    Hoodlum/murderer/rapist grows up to be a police officer = happy ending? Ironic, satirical, yes...but I wouldn't call it "happy" of any sort. Great film, but the book by Anthony Burgess is simply amazing. Creates its very own language, some of which is used in the film. As to whether you...

    Is there nothing new under the sun?

    All I can think of (and your avatar is partly to blame) is: "MOLTAR!! RELEASE THE TACO!" I don't think everything has been done. These days "retro" is popular, and Hollywood is always recycling whatever idea made a lot of money. But trace those derivatives back to their sources, and you'll...

    Do you play Dragons in lair, right??

    Hoo boy! :D Thorncrest, here are some standard tactics that become uber- in the claws of a dragon. Trip Disarm Grapple Snatch 'em, fly way up the air (doing damage all the way), and drop 'em. Repeat. And I have to ask...do you even want any advice? Replying with one line of caps comes...
