    Large Map: Getting It Printed

    I'm not an expert on this, but I think our local Kinko's also had an engineering plotter available. One of my buddies used it to make a ginormous Car Wars map for the local con.* He said it could do about 3 feet by however long you wanted it. I'm not sure if it's available in color or how...

    Jackson's King Kong: 3 Hours.

    Sometimes its hard to tell what's studio hype and what's genuine excitement. It really sounds like everyone with a job at stake really thinks they've got magic waiting to happen with this one.

    Are you a good Dungeon Master?

    I usually feel that way, too. There have been plenty of times I've closed up shop after a game thinking a dozen things never went right, only to have the players tell me they can't wait for the next game. That kind of analysis and desire to improve is what makes people good at whatever their...

    Druids are not Hippies!

    You're welcome to play any kind of Druid you like. If someone else wants to play a hippie or an avenger of nature, what's the big deal?

    Dumb D&D Questions

    I don't know, but I've got a guy that's been begging me to let him play a squaredance calling bard. "Flank with yer partner, flank with yer Rogue. Stab him real quick and do se do. Now promenade..." No. I'm not kidding.

    Are Fantasy RPGs always D&D spin-off's?

    I really don't see Warhammer as directly derivative of D&D. The whole tone of the world is pretty far from shining heroes saving the day and walking off with tons of cash that is usually associated with D&D. In Warhammer, you're lucky to survive with your sanity and a majority of your limbs...

    d20-ifying Sanity Checks

    I'd also recommend Darkness & Dread by Fantasy Flight Games. I think you can get it at DriveThruRPG now. Here's a link to my review. http://www.enworld.org/reviews.php?do=review&reviewid=2462387

    Anybody else here hunt?

    I wasn't really sure how to answer. I like shooting. I like meat. I'm just really not in to all the in-between steps, I guess. I think if I ate more of it, I'd like venison better. For now, I'm happier with beef. My motto: If an animal didn't die, it's not a meal.

    Review Project take two

    Crothian, do I need to post here to let you know a review is up or just email you? I know you've been busy, so I don't want to bombard you with messages.

    What would you do... (warning, touchy subject) - Updated

    Goverenment agencies suck, but keep going to the police. As others have suggested, try social workers and/or doctors as well. It's good that you want to help, but you won't be doing anybody any good sitting in a 8x10 box for assault and battery. Sooner or later your friend will have enough...

    Minorities & D&D/RPGs

    I'm not trying to be a jerk, but does it really matter? This is a hobby about pretending to be someone you're not in the first place. Also, you really can't base any kind of statistics (for anything) just based on personal experience. If I did, I'd have to assume all Native Americans were gamers.

    Unorthodox Knights

    Upfront I received Unorthodox Knights for free as part of the pdf review program. This is not a playtest review. Summary Unorthodox Knights is a 47 page pdf (in printer friendly mode) which contains about 43 pages of material. The rest is the cover, table of contents, and OGL. There are...

    D&D 4E Hasbro, Greyhawk, and 4E speculation

    And as I mentioned previously, Hasbro is a business. Therefore, everything is always for sale at the right price. They may not have any active plans to unload GI Joe either, but if you walked in with a check for $100 Million or so, they'd probably help you carry everything out to your car...

    D&D 4E Hasbro, Greyhawk, and 4E speculation

    But he does have sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads. :] Come on, if Charles Ryan doesn't know what's going on with D&D, nobody does.

    Foreign Exchange: Scam?

    I'd also check with the school counselor. They usually have info on programs like that, too.

    Erik Mona's WOTC project

    Has anybody guessed "Gnomish Kama Sutra" yet? That was my favorite from the Monte's Secret Project guessing thread.

    Legends & Lairs for $5 - any recommended?

    If you DM at all, get Monsters Hanbook. I also recommend Darkness & Dread.

    How not to run a Job Fair.

    Maybe you can get a job running career fairs. It sounds like they could stand for a switch in staffing. ;)

    D&D 4E Hasbro, Greyhawk, and 4E speculation

    But this has been true for several D&D settings. Dark Sun, Mystara, Red Steel, and most noticeably Planescape have essentially been gathering dust since 3e. Also, having no plans for new products in those lines is not the same as having no ANNOUNCED plans for new products in those lines...

    D&D 4th Edition Next Year?

    I'm working as fast as I can, but there's no way I'll have 4e finished for an '06 release.
