No.

oh, the "humor" tag, how you have failed me. Perhaps Vancian magic appeals more to gamers with a long-lasting sense of whimsy? Magic is magical, after all. I just want my Vance/Leiber/Howard/Tolkien/Lovecraft hybrid.

That's how it looks to me. Wizards prices their products to allow online AND brick/mortar stores to offer discounts. However, the brick/mortar stores rarely do this. That's why they're losing out on part of the market. Why pay full price, gas and parking (sometimes) to buy a book in a store...

Whenever my players complain about the Vancian style of magic, I bop them on the head with a plushie wand. Then I force them to wear a blue robe decorated with yellow moons and stars. Eventually, they learn. They all learn.

This link is better than pornography.

I love Vancian magic. Do you love Vancian magic? I love Vancian magic. Save Vancian magic.

I can buy most of the RPG books I want from Amazon.com at 25% to 34% off with free shipping. It's been this way for many years. My local game stores offer a discount of 0%. My local chain bookstores offer small discounts of 10%, but one usually has to pay to be a member of their discount club...

Does that include spell damage?

Is it... is it possible that Scott_Rouse is made of pure undiluted awesome? :) I agree with others that I'd like to see these maps (and the Delve maps) in the highest resolution possible in order to use them as battle maps. Those delve maps are so nice, but so small....

Hopefully I'll b running a one-shot of C&C this weekend. My desire to play more of it after that will depend completely on what my players think of it. I'll be using a house rule for skill checks that I saw somewhere on the net. Instead of having DC of 12 for primes and 18 for non-primes, I'll...

Thanks, grodog. I searched for "advertisement" on the Acaeum site and found the exact article I remember seeing before. http://www.acaeum.com/forum/post-81149.html

A few months ago (maybe sooner), someone here posted links to the old comic-strip style D&D ads that ran in the back of comic books. I lost the link and can't seem to find it here on the site. I'm also looking for good scans of any AD&D/D&D advertisements. Preferably from the period of the...

I thought about just switching to d20 Modern using Urban Arcana and the new Star Wars rules. While that would be nice, each member of my new groups owns the 3.5 PHB and not the Star Wars or d20 Modern books. But I imagine that if someone wants to see the future of D&D, it would be Urban...

I really like some of the new rules in the Star Wars SAGA edition. The new skill system and the damage threshold rule are especially nice. I would like to introduce these into my D&D 3.5 game, but I'm afraid something will "break." The damage threshold system will probably be OK, though I...

Cool, I was hoping they would release this as a $2 book.

Well, it really sucks that I have 4 game stores within a 30 mile radius and not one of them is participating. The nearest participating store is about two hours away. I had to balance the cost of gas and mileage on my car vs. what I'll have to play for this on eBay. Meh. In any case, I'm glad...

I downloaded mine around 3am and it took a long time to "process" the order then as well. But it eventually went through. I'm glad to have a copy of True20 to look at now.

I read something similar to this written on the Dungeoneer RPG message board (at Goodman Games): http://www.goodman-games.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1217

Hopefully they'll put up a direct link to the download. I really don't want to register to their site just to add a free .pdf to a virtual basket in order to download it.
