    Have you played these boardgames?

    I own Puerto Rico and El Grande. I've only played Puerto Rico a few times, but I have already decided that I don't like it. With no dice and no cards, theres ZERO random chance, and the order of play doesn't switch to accomodate. Therefore, the player who sits next to the player who makes the...

    So, I have words for TicketMaster...

    I just did this on Cicrvs Maximvs and I'll do it here too. You made a mistake. Why the heck are you blaming them? They completed their part of the transaction. Sure, it would be nice if they helped you out and fixed your mistake, but they're under no obligation to do so. Almost every...

    Goblin Warrior's Mobile Ranged Attack

    Okay. Fine. That sounds right. Thank you Mengu. :) I did pick up on (but neglected to mention in my post) the fact that they specifically didn't use the word SHIFT. What I didn't do was add 2+2 and realize that the 3 box move is part of a standard action, and that therefore you could use...

    Goblin Warrior's Mobile Ranged Attack

    Mobile Ranged Attack (standard; at-will) The goblin warrior can move up to half its speed; at any point during that movement, it can make one ranged basic attack without provoking an opportunity attack. So, what exactly is not provoking the attack of opportunity? The move, the ranged...

    D&D 4E 4e style rules: General > Specific

    We played our first 4E session last night, and I feel that problem still exists... just in a different place. In 3E, there were certain types of monsters where each class had the chance to be the "star" or main damage dealers, usually because certain classes were weak or useless against those...

    How do I describe "being marked" to players?

    I finished my first run through of the PHB/DMG last night, and this was one of the threads I was going to start. The paladin's mark is a divine compulsion, the fighter's mark is just...dangerous? How often will an NPC/monster try to break against the mark and go after someone else instead...

    Multiplayer Gaming: What am I missing?

    SO I just got my 360 and i've been downloding tons of demos, and I've been playing Mass Effect and Bioshock, and I wouldn't mind trying an online "light" game in xbox arcade, or trying a FPS online. I put on the Lost Planet demo and it dumped me right onto a map with 15 other guys, no idea...

    February - What are you playing?

    Since you'd rather be playing WoW, I'll take them all off your hands for $200 ? You can rent yourself a gold farmer or something! As for my list, I've been hitting the games pretty good lately. Finishing up some older PS2 games on a borrowed PS2 and used GameCube games while I wait for SSBB...

    Which old Ninendo to buy?

    The N64 gets a lot of hate, because it was still cartridge when other systems went disk, a lot of people don't like the joystick and there weren't a lot of games...but the N64 has some of the greatest games ever made. possibly the 5 best gams of all time? Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time -...

    History Channel's "Cities of the Underworld" as inspiration

    My question is...does anyone know the title of the music track they play when they head underground? Its catchy and I'd like to use it for a dungeon delve :p

    360 or PS3?

    The DS has a lot of games, and at least one in every major genre. Its a great portable device and probably the best system right now. Even if I do have some control problems occasionally because I have problems holding it and reaching the buttons. The PSP looks pretty, but has had horrible...

    360 or PS3?

    thanks for the links... so I take that i'm looking for a box that says Falcon on it? and are the Falcons only going to be Elite at first? Now that they both have HDMI, the only difference seems to be the 100 GBs of space right? Is it still worth getting the elite? Im finally playing all the...

    360 or PS3?

    Just to jump into someone else's thread... when are the new 65nm 360s hitting shelves? Mass Effect is really really tempting me, and I'm gonna finally have a TV by then.

    Pitch me your ulitmate D&D movie

    I'm not a writer. I don't have a pitch of my own. However, as a television/movie viewer, related merchandise consumer and gamer I can tell you what I ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY DON'T WANT TO SEE... 1> Nothing that involves real world "players" and a their characters. ugh. Gamers was kinda funny...

    Screen names and first impressions

    Screen names can help with gender. Reading the names in this thread, I'd assume everyone is a guy except Jeysie and Pixie. (of course, pixie is a guy and a married one at that...but as he explained, the name comes from his wife.) Screen names from pop culture can give a clue as to the age. I...

    Second best death scene?

    I'm pretty sure any Firefly fans can add an obvious post-2004 great death. "I'm a leaf on the wind"

    Who is going to the New York Comic Con?

    If they werent sold out ONLY directly on the website (still avail at local retailers) on Feb 1, and the same for weekend passes sometime in the last 2 weeks, you'd have the same problem as last year... when people who bought tickets months in advance couldn't get in. You can still buy tickets...
