It was kind of frustrating when you see - first, the Dark One's touch is causing winter to be unusually long... then, you have an unusually hot and long summer, also caused by the Dark one... then, you have food going bad too soon because of the Dark one. It's a bit too repetitive. That said...

Maybe I should check out the Mistborn trilogy next...

True, most gaming worlds tend to start small and build out from that first small village or hamlet. I've had this idea in my head for years, though, so wanted to see where it leads me down the road.

You can't go wrong with geek icons like them. I'd see it just for that.

Definitely a big help - not sure how lazy I want to be in terms of learning a new software.

Many years ago, I started creating my own gaming world for use with D&D. It was based on Earth, but had some changes to it - maybe lower sea levels or similar to account for a land bridge linking Canada to Greenland to continental Europe, Alaska to Siberia, and similarly linking southeast Asia...

Many years ago - some time in the early 90s, I'd guess - I started reading the Wheel of Time. I really enjoyed The Eye of the World, and the subsequent books were good as well. I'd never read such a massive series of books, and it was fantasy as well. And, I liked the main characters - Rand...

I think it's supposed to be prequel, concurrent event and sequel rolled into one - so, some backstory on the rise of the Persian Empire, the Battle of Marathon and death of Darius, Xerxes coming to power, the battle of Salamis, and the aftermath of both Salamis and Thermopylae.

My experience is different. I was all excited to be a playtester, then my wife got a job offer where we had to move... and, by the time I got settled into the new home a few months later, a few iterations of the playtest were already out there, so I felt I was behind and would not be able to...

the so-called

The new Reign of Winter AP seems pretty good so far, but it does not start in Varisia. It's on the eastern portion of the Inner Sea in Taldor, which is a long ways away. (It then quickly travels to the frozen north...) I agree with Sandpoint, as it's a starting point of both the original...

If they make Batman a similar age to Superman, Cavill is in his early 30s, maybe Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye in the Avengers)? I think he's in that same age range?

does that include a West Coast hurricane and tornadoes as well?

What kind of training, son? Army training, sir! http://youtu.be/FOzub_ghAbM

Some good stuff here... looks pretty brutal at times. http://youtu.be/FSi2fJALDyQ

In regards to Khan being exiled, due to Furman v Georgia, the United States temporarily did not have an execution from 1967 through 1976, and most western nations still do not. At the time, I'm sure the writers figured that the death penalty would not be around as a punishment in the future...

I watched all of DS9 and B5 when they were aired back in the dark ages. I think I cared more for the main characters on DS9 more than I did on B5, but I think both were excellent shows at their peaks. I'd even say that at its best, DS9 was the best Trek show. However, I don't think DS9 had...

and, I should have qualified that by saying that "peanuts" to one person is a good living to another. However, 50k in Renton, Washington is not a huge salary by any stretch, as the cost of living is 10% above the national average there. Now, if he were in Bentonville, Arkansas, where the cost...

highest paid people in RPG design and being paid peanuts are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
