    What do you find most useful to your gaming?

    Again, I have to agree with Rounser. Reading his posts, it seems to me like we think alike on a lot of issues. Anyhow, yes, modules (now called "adventures") not only provide a ready-made setting but give DM's examples on how an adventure can/should be run. But from a player's perspective...

    OT: This is very cute!

    Here's a funny pic of some dwarves: http://sp-lands.com/Castle-people/dwarves.htm Check out the giant they're fighting here: http://sp-lands.com/Add-pics/giant-dwarves.htm These pics are apparently from a Lego fan site. At first, I thought it was a cutesy joke or something, but there's...

    How big is your world?

    I thought Indonesia was only comprised of islands. Do you use the same topography? What about place names?

    How big is your world?

    Did you know that at its widest point going west to east, England is only 250 miles wide? If you're travelling on foot at 1.5 miles per hour for eight hours a day (12 miles/day), it will take you less than three weeks to get from one coast to another. By horse, it should take you less than...

    Counters for combat grids

    I have to say, Claudio, you did an excellent job here with Counter Collections I and II! Buying those two items saved me a lot of money, time, and space instead of buying miniatures. The drawings are fantastic, especially for the individual NPC's! It's hard to imagine how you can put so much...

    Necropolis

    I've bought Oriental Adventures and Manual of the Planes, but haven't been able to go through them yet. I wanted to buy Swashbuckling Adventures because it looks really good, too. I'll probably buy it later when I'm done reading the stuff I already have.

    3e XP: how fast is too fast?

    It just seems kind of crazy to me, for a party of adventurers to progress from say level 6 to level 14 at the end of a dungeon crawl. I don't want to spend half of my character's time in a single dungeon. That's just me though! I always thought you generally gain one level (IF THAT) after...

    3e XP: how fast is too fast?

    Does anyone here who DM's make adjustments for XP downward for players because you think they are progressing too fast in leveling? Just curious.

    Do you/have you played any non-D&D/d20 Fantasy RPGs?

    Where do you guys find all the time to play so many games? I've heard of some people playing five different kinds of rpgs on a regular basis. Don't you ever get confused and mix up the rules?

    1000 ways to freak out your DM

    Now why would you want to freak out your DM? DM's don't like to be freaked out, don't you know that???

    Chicago Gameday - 11/09/02 (now including the Castle Brawl photos link!)

    Sounds like fun. Wish I could go. How long has this been going on now?

    Church Structure for Clerics: Founding a Temple

    The priest should have to go out and seek donations. Perhaps even door to door. It all depends on how much time you want to spend on mundane issues like that.

    My wife won't let me play D&D.

    I don't know why you can't have separate interests. Have you kept her from doing anything she likes to do?

    D&D spellcasters in the modern world

    I wish I had a few cantrips. Then I wouldn't even have to do my dishes (prestidigitation) or switch on the lights (light).

    Gamers Slandered In NY Times

    I don't know how gamers can be put in the same paragraph along with drug dealers. Ridiculous!

    For those who took the Leadership feat: tell me about your cohorts!

    Cohorts seem to be too close in level with the PC's to me.

    What are YOU buying this year?

    What's the release date on that "Lord of the Rings" extended version DVD anyhow?

    Theme Sorcerers

    I like the weather sorcerer idea, but that may be more appropriate for a druid.
