    Do You Prefer to Play One of the Four Primary Base Classes (Clr, Ftr, Rog, Wiz)?

    I tend to play fighters (when I have the chance to be a player instead of DM that is), but even then I like to try out some of the new classes. Variety is the spice of life, but I've always been the kind of guy that likes to wade into the frontlines of combat and kick ass.

    Is 3.x Your Favorite Version of D&D?

    Another ditto. The is the first edition of D&D that was set-up so that I didn't have to shoehorn the system to get it to do what I wanted.

    Ever had an RPG bring a tear to your player's eyes (or your own)?

    The only time any other emotion other than amusement has been exhibited at any of my games was one time one of my players got really ticked at me for pulling a really low "bastard GM" stunt. We were playing the old Seige on the Citadel Mutant Chronicles boardgame. One of the event cards allows...

    Is D&D Your Favorite RPG?

    It doesn't surprise me too much. After all, you can be a fan of a game without it being your favorite.

    Vanguard and an unrelated question

    That's a shame. Vanguard looked promising.

    MONSTER MANUAL 4: More Monsters/Less Fluff or Vice Versa?

    I'm firmly in the give me good fluff camp for my monsters. Monsternomicon was the first monster book for 3.5 that really made the monsters feel like something more than a collection of stats. I like the treasure outlines, especially if it lists items that can be harvested from the creatures...

    [June] What are you playing?

    I didn't know about that one. Thanks for the info. However, if I got a PS2, I would also have access to that huge library of RPG's... This one will take some thought...

    ENWorld, what is best in d20 modern?

    It's hands-down the best PA book I've ever picked up. The fact that it can meld with D20 Modern material easily is just another huge plus in my book. It's great and a gem that I'll readily recommend to anyone.

    ENWorld, what is best in d20 modern?

    In no particular order: Darwin's World 2: This is everything that Gamma World D20 should have been. Dawning Star: The best D20 Modern/Future setting on the market. Menance Manual: One of the best creature/villain books out there. Sidewinder Recoiled: Western gaming done right. Year of the...

    Is D&D Your Favorite RPG?

    Nope. D20 Modern takes the cake there. M&M 2E tops D&D on my favorites list as well. D&D is my favorite fantasy RPG though.

    Is D&D Your Primary RPG?

    D20 Modern is my primary RPG. D&D is my primary *fantasy* RPG though.

    Ever had an RPG bring a tear to your player's eyes (or your own)?

    You can have a campaign full of complex plots, character interaction, drama out the wazoo without a tear being shed. I suspect there have a been a few tears shed at the various gaming tables of "hack n' slash" games throughout the years as well. It's not an instance where no tears = hack n slash.

    Ever had an RPG bring a tear to your player's eyes (or your own)?

    Just FYI, our games haven't been simple "kill, loot, level, repeat" games for a long time. We have thrilling plotlines, intrigue, drama, and roleplaying. It's just that none of us get that attached. PC's and NPC's die all the time. It's part of the game. :shrug: Some people just don't get...

    What are the biggest real-life hinderances to your gaming?

    Amen, brother! I live about an hour and a half away from my group, so the price of gas is a big hurdle. Other factors that hinder my playing time is my job and my unwillingness to game with strangers. My job keeps me on the road sometimes for weeks on end, so that shoots any regular play...

    Ever had an RPG bring a tear to your player's eyes (or your own)?

    Eh. I don't like it when people cry at movies either. How do you console someone that does that? "There there now, it was only a movie." :\ I'm not trying to rail on anyone that does, but for me, I just can't understand how someone can get that emotionally involved in a game or a movie...

    Vanguard and an unrelated question

    I'm interested in Vanguard, but my interest level in MMORPG's in general has waned. Not sure if I'll pick it up or not. I'm having fun rediscovering the Final Fantasy series from it's beginnings. :D

    [June] What are you playing?

    MVP 2005: Running through the 05 season as the Royals (complete re-draft of all the teams thankfully) in Owner Mode. Started playing Final Fantasy 1 (again after many years), but my copy won't save so I guess I'm off to track down a PS2 and a copy of the FF Anthology. :( Playing various SNES...
