    The Chronicles of Amber

    I'm most of the way through Hand of Oberon right now and absolutely loving it. On top of the fact that I seem to have inadvertently stumbled upon what is undoubtedly one of the greatest fantasy series of all time, I can get them for UNDER A DOLLAR APIECE at Half-Price Books. All this great...

    The offical ENWorld Doom 3 reaction thread.

    Nope. If you choose not to do it, game takes over and makes the decision to do it. It was almost a way to play the game more than once, but I guess they ran out of time to develop it and made it cheesy instead. :(

    Celebrity D&D Sightings - Matthew Lillard

    Yup, good ole' Shaggy from the Scooby-Doo movies. You might also remember him from Scream, Thirteen Ghosts, Wing Commander, Hackers (my personal favorite), and the new Without a Paddle with co-stars Seth Green and Dax Shepard. I was reading an article in my friendly local newspaper, (the...

    Simplifying Treasure Drops - Spreadsheets?

    A friend of mine asked me to check around to see if anyone knew of an Excel spreadsheet or some similar program to help expidite the treasure dividing/selling process. For example: A sheet that lets you click what items you've looted, what percentage of the full value you're selling it for...

    Remnants of the Horde: In through the Back Way...

    OOC: Sorry, been in Europe since the 13th and forgot to tell y'all. Ok here goes! Durgo's Maul begins to shed an insidious purple glow as the Muragar lays eyes upon the Fiend. Unsure of what this means, he comes to the conclusion that Ravarg's ghost has come to bless his weapon. Being a...

    Remnants of the Horde: In through the Back Way...

    Still befuddled by the complexity before him, Durgo takes no small amount of time in making a connection: the hag-dwarf's room back at the outer keep and this place. Bubbling things, stuff moving up and down...but this was bigger. And more than a little different. But close enough for Durgo...

    Remnants of the Horde: In through the Back Way...

    The Gulgathan stares mystified at the wonder before him. Despite its seemingly earthly origins, it is still mojo to Durgo who understands battle and precious little else. He laments the untimely death of the useful mephit (laments, not mourns) but recalls its final squeaky words...

    Remnants of the Horde:Back to Myrach...

    What? 33 pages is too much? ;) Uriel, you da man!

    The Dark Tower: to Read or Not to Read

    I put the series on the whole in my Top 5 of all time. The first book, however, is very misleading. It's one of King's earlier works (after Salem's Lot, before the Stand) and is seemingly written in one fell swoop of inspiration. Later, he puts a lot more depth into the setting (including...

    Remnants of the Horde: In through the Back Way...

    Durgo, knowing nothing of venting or machinery, nods dumbly and indicates the mephit forward. But he understands BOOM and doesn't like the idea of finding shay-man big-big underneath a leveled mountain. Since he lacks any gobbies or Muragar to spare, and the issue seems time-senstitive, he...

    The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah: What did you think? (spoilers)

    I bought it on Tuesday, finished it Thursday. Like you, I didn't know it was even out until I saw an employee at B&N walking around with a stack on her cart. I flipped! DT has always been my favorite series of all time. Each book just makes it better and better in ways I can't explain...

    Remnants of the Horde: In through the Back Way...

    Durgo lowers his head, casting a menacing gaze over the surviving drow as a grin slowly splits his face. His body turns and he plants on foot squarely behind him, crouches slightly, and springs forward at a terrifying speed. Just the sound of his Maul swinging through the air is enough to...

    Top Five Anime Picks

    Based on some opinions in this thread, I went out last night and rented Berserk. I give it a 5/10 having watched the first 5 episodes. Does it get better? The animation was average and got very sloppy/simplistic in the fight scenes. The music is clunky. The characters are interesting but...

    PrC's for my cleric of Helm?

    Kewl! I don't have Complete Divine yet, so I havn't seen the new Inquisitor. But Divine Disciple is interesting enough. Thanks for all your suggestions so far everyone! Any others?

    PrC's for my cleric of Helm?

    I'm fairly well versed in the myriad books available out there but, in this instance I'm at a loss. My cleric of Helm has just attained 8th level and his actions thus far certainly warrant a certain measure of, shall we say, prestige. Yet there seems to be little out there in the way of this...

    [May] What are you playing?

    I'd dearly love to get in on the WoW beta, but for now I'm content with various multiplayer games: Far Cry (best SP game since Half-life IMO) UT2004 Enemy Territory (best free game out there, hands down)

    Quick Battle Mat question

    Darn, still no hex-tiles. I'd be all over it if it was hexes. :(

    Remnants of the Horde: In through the Back Way...

    Durgo sneers as a low growl makes its way slowly from his gullet and into the back of his throat. "Mojo..." His lip remains curled in disgust as he wraps both hands around his Maul and leads the way forward around the corner, ready to annihilate the first thing he comes to that looks at him...
