    Dear Hasbro: about those minis

    I'd buy it in a heartbeat, and I don't really mind the D&D minis or the way they are sold! Allen

    Dear Hasbro: about those minis

    A small point of clarification: the "buttload of money" made by Magic the Gathering was largely made before Wizards was bought by Hasbro. Its still profitable, of course. Allen

    So what is your favorite module, ever?

    Favorite D&D module that I have run is probably 2nd editions version of "Against The Giants: The Liberation of Geoff" which I ran for 3rd edition at our local gaming club a few years back. One of my all-time favorite non-D&D modules was "A Doomsday Like Any Other" for the FASA Star Trek RPG...

    Curse of the Azure Bonds - your experiences?

    I ran it the module. Our group's paladin wound up being compelled to strangle someone to death with his bare hands and thus lost his paladinhood until he completed a quest, said quest being to destroy those who enslaved him. Trouble was, we were using those optional experience things in 2nd...

    So what is your favorite Dungeon adventure, ever?

    I can't remember the name, but one I really liked involved a library in the Forgotten Realms with rooms that shifted around and the place was filled with abishai; this was back in 2nd edition days. I also enjoy "Deadly Treasure" from issue #41, which I ran recently for Hackmaster and again using...

    What scale of changes and changes themselves would you find acceptable?

    Sad to say, this would probably not work too well...but it would be nice if they RE-RELEASED OD&D(1974) as D&D Classic so those who wish to could buy it. Allen

    What scale of changes and changes themselves would you find acceptable?

    QFT!! Also, monster stat blocks that don't take up huge amounts of space and reduced prep time for GMs. Allen

    Addicted to buying 1e AD&D Player's Handbooks!

    Hey! Leave some for me! I need about 3 to 4 more for my weekly AD&D 1st edition game; we're just starting ToEE. Allen

    WereWorg

    Can you use the Lycanthrope template to create a human who shapeshifts into a Magical Beast such as a Worg or Winter Wolf? Allen

    Eric Noah, post in this thread. Everyone else stay out.

    My question, of course, is what is the connection between Eric Noah and Eric the Half-a-Bee? Allen

    Cthulhu vs. the Tarrasque

    When did my silly little thread about two really huge monsters with D20 stats fighting each other turn into a quasi-serious literary discussion/flame war? Allen

    Is the AD&D 1E Revival here to stay?

    about the question of how to get today's gamer's to try AD&D...it was simple. I sent out an e-mail that went something like: "Guys, its the Saturday after Thanksgiving and I am bored to tears. I want to run a game. Problem is, the adventure that I want to run is not for D&D 3.5 and I don't have...

    Cthulhu vs. the Tarrasque

    Has anyone ever staged a battle between the d20 version of Great Cthulhu as given in the D20 CoC book and the Tarrasque? Allen

    roleplaying people are satanists ;)

    As a member of a mainline Christian denomination I can assure you that the segment of Christianity that is represented by hate-mongers like Jack Chick is NOT part of the mainline. Allen

    [EDITION WARZ] Selling Out D&D's Soul?

    Thank you! That is exactly how I feel! And that was the problem, I believe, with the last game I ran. One player, in particular, just didn't trust me, or from what he said, GMs in general. I just can't run in that environment. Allen

    [EDITION WARZ] Selling Out D&D's Soul?

    I agree with this statement...but I am not prepared tosay this is a bad thing. It just is. There are some design concepts of original D&D that carried through to AD&D. Some of these carried through into 2nd edition. Very few made it to 3rd. I do thinnk that 3rd edition is suffering from splat...

    Does 3/3.5E cause more "rule arguments" than earlier editions?

    My problem is not with DMS who run the rules as written. I actually do try to do this most of the time. It is easier, after all :) Sometimes I forget things and would rather not slow the game down looking something up. I want the freedom to make a ruling and get on with it. THAT seems to be what...

    Does 3/3.5E cause more "rule arguments" than earlier editions?

    In my game, if you tried to argue with me about a rule just because you didn't like the rule and thought it should be changed you would get one of two responses: 1.) Take it up with the WOTC design team, not me OR 2.) When you run a campaign, feel free to change any rules you want. In my...

    Does 3/3.5E cause more "rule arguments" than earlier editions?

    I recently ran 3.5 at our local gaming club. I will admit up front that I had not run the game in awhile and I own very little 3.5 beyond the core books. But I ran this game at the direct request of a friend of mine for he and two of his friends. One of those friends turned out to be one of the...
