    WH40K Dark Heresy

    OK. So I waited a couple months too long on this one. I thought the news of FFG buying the game line would have kept it in circulation a bit longer. But now I can't find a copy anywhere. Does anyone know of an online source with any copies new in stock for no more than retail? Thanks. C

    Horror List

    Hey everyone. I apologize in advance, because I'm sure my request has been done before. We are continuing with 3.5, and our newest campaign setting is a hilly, subarctic region filled with undead. I am trying to run something of a horror game, with the only change to the genre being that the...

    Whatever happened to Spycraft?

    At the end of this month, my wife and I will wrap up our three-year campaign for our group. We played a hybrid version of basically Spycraft 1, with the errata, and some stuff from d20 Modern and Spycraft 2 thrown in. I love the genre and love the game, but I could be critical of lots of parts...

    Coolest part of your homebrew?

    This is a fun thread. My game is big on cosmological issues and divine power. My gods do not gain their power from how many or how faithful their worshippers are; they're gods. Furthermore, my giant church of Pelor, not so loosely based on the Catholic Church, is NOT an inquisitorial...

    Prophecy and Tannhauser

    So I'm making a Christmas list... Does anyone have experience with either Z-Man Games' Prophecy and/or Fantasy Flight Games' Tannhauser? I realize that the two games are completely different, but I will probably only be able to get one. So I'm not looking for a comparison, but just...

    The Great d20 sell off begins with GRR

    OK, I have a request for the Green-Ronin-iphiles, now that this sale is easily accessible. I own Book of the Righteous, Unholy Warriors, and Avatars'. I like them all a lot, but I don't use them in my campaign. I also have Testament, which I also really appreciate (though I've yet to get a...

    Warcraft and World of Warcraft

    Thanks. This is very helpful. It does seem like I made the right choice because I did not want a variant PHB. Now I can try to hunt down the OOP original Warcraft books!

    Warcraft and World of Warcraft

    Hello all. I just picked up a copy of the Warcraft campaign setting because it was a good deal and it had the Dungeons and Dragons label on it. It didn't dawn on me until later that this is not necessarily the same thing as the later-published World of Warcraft campaign setting. Have I been...

    Advice on what Kingdom of Kalamar setting material to pick up

    I'm actually interested in this sale, but I'm actually NOT interested in fluff; I'm interested in crunch. One of the reasons I've steered clear of KoK so far is the lack of crunch in most of the books. Is there any crunch-heavy books that someone could steer me to? Thanks! C

    Tell me about your Superheroes game!

    Absolutely! It worked really well for us.

    Tell me about your Superheroes game!

    My friend and I ran a Champions campaign for just about 5 years non-stop, with the same core group of players and characters. It was set in my Champions world, which I have been running on and off for 20 years. Superhero games can definitely be long-term. Our approach was to just go heavy...

    Goliath

    Does anyone know if height, weight, and age tables exist for Goliaths? I've been looking. In the meantime, I've used the info for the feral gargun in Races of Stone.

    Cinematic Climax or Sound Strategy?

    Advice sought on the Battle of Brindol in RHoD (spoilers) Tomorrow night, my party will be fighting the general and his friends. I've already set up the scene as the cliffhanger of last session, so they've had a few weeks to think about the battle (which they realize is very much against them...

    Web

    I feel like I'm being complete obtuse about this. My party is using web spells for battlefield control, stretching them between buildings to prevent their opponents' forward movement and to funnel them into choke points. The spell description says that fire destroys them, but its reasonable...

    City of Peril and RHoD

    Could anyone tell me if any or all of the city maps in City of Peril would work for the Brindol section of RHoD? I'm especially wondering about the scene with the waves of attackers storming the street barricade. [I know the map included with the adventure has a battlemap for that very scene...

    RHOD part 4 help!

    Thanks, Eric. I never noticed that map, because I never take those things out of the book! Does anyone know if there is an image of it online somewhere so I can make my own?

    RHOD part 4 help!

    Hello all. I apologize if this has been asked and answered; if so, please send me where I need to be. For the final battle in Brindol, does anyone have a good source for battle maps? I need them for all five of the major encounters. For the 3rd encounter, RHOD implies there is some generic...

    Final 11 besides Eberron

    In WotC's setting competition from several years back, have any of the other finalists been published? Obviously, I know about Eberron, and I also have FFG's Dawnforged. Are there others out there? Based on those two alone, I'd like to see others. C

    LGS in Arlington

    Hey all. Just got back. I wrote a much longer review a few moments ago and then accidentally erased it. I don't feel like re-typing it all. I went down to Chantilly. My wife and I were very pleased with the store there. My two very minor complaints: 1) The shrinkwrapping thing. Someone...
