There is no way I could ever manage to eat a 15 pound burger all by myself . Now a 2 or 3 pound steak bring it on. It shall be consumed along with small salad a little bread and a veggie. The gross part of over eating is it doesn't all get digested properly. Take both your gands and curl them...

The Sample Orc army goes along with Heroes of battle. The exerpts from the previewed books are all grouped together.

I'll agree four seasons really isn't failure. What I'd love to see is a new Star Trek animated series, either original crew or set in the era between the original series and ST:TNG. Edit: Heck, I'd even like something like StarTrek: Cadets with a group of young starfleet cadets.

Amen. I run a "status-quo" style of campaign usually so PCs that don't look before they leap are prone for very long falls. In one campaing years ago there was a large valley where a clan of Stone Giants and a tribe of Trolls were feuding with each other, a very unhealthy place for the then...

Lots of different dungeons. That does it for me usually. The dungeons don't even all have to be freakishly different from the "average dungeon" but each should have somethign that is quickly recognizably different from other dungeons in the campaign. Give the dungeons names and don't be...

I studied Applied Mathematics and Computer Science a long time ago, not "punchcards" a long time ago but "pascal and fortran" a long time ago. The funny thing is I ended up becoming a proffesional artist.

Level: The term "Level" has multiple meanings within and beyond the dungeon. To some the multple definitions can be rather confusing but it is relatively easy to regard the relative power of certainly disitinct "things" through the use of the term "level". Commonly accepted usages of the term...

A $12.00 price tag circa 1980 is the equivalent in modern dollars of $27.95 A $4.50 price tag circa 1980 is the equivalnet in modern dollars of $10.48 So looking at it that way: 128 page book is slightly expensive but still worth it due its essential nature as it is the games PHB, while the 16...

Evil: The true nature and the very exsistence of evil has been questioned endlessly by a wide variety of philosophers. Are orcs evil? Is it evil to throw a loaf of bread into a crowd of starving peasants and place wagers on whom will remain to collect the crumbs? Is it evil to break the...

Progenitor, Progenis ...?

King Philips War My family cut ice on "Fresh pond" in the boston area. The Boston Tea Party The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere and others. The Battle of Lexington and Concord A couple of blocks from my boyhood home there is a plaque commerating the life and death of an elderly man to old and...

9-11 I drove to work without the radio on for a change that day and hadn't had cable news on the television that morning. I got to work and the publications department where I work was empty, very strange since I'm one of the last ones in usually. I wandered about and noticed a large crowd...

Yes, all the BRP games have Hit Points they just don't automatically keep climbing as a character develops.

These days levels 1-20 are fun to DM.

Firearms saw use in europe in the 13th century and dominated warfare by the 15th century. Even this domination of warfare didn't mean forces didn't clash with steel: German and Polish cavalry armed with sabres and lances as primary weapons clashed in a handful of engagements during the Polish...

England.

A dungeon crawl takes place in an enclosed environment, there are monsters and the threat of traps. There is no real explicit goal beyond killing monsters and finding treasure, sure sometimes it is a quest for the great mcguffin or a mission to slay the foozle but the real adventure is moving...

My regular campaign has gone from 1st to 14th in something like 4 years. Characters got to 5th level or so fairly quickly but it slowed down after that.

I never exp for that small amount of exp till next level "situation". I have and do slip a players active character couple of extra exp for helping a session run smoothly. If someone brings mood music, extra character sheets and sometimes even a snack to share they'll be getting an exp bonus...

Which isn't a class feature, the results of the leadership feat aren't specifically tied to a class and isn't explicitly tied to any other campaign activity. Characters aren't expected to settle down and become part of the ruling class. It isn't the same thing. And I'll warrant an experienced...
