I'm going to run my group through the 1st ed Tomb of Horrors, complete with the nameless (how fitting!) pregenerated NPCs in the back. I figure it won't take long for a TPK, and we can then proceed to the planned game of the evening. We were also considering making a drinking game out of it in...

I believe they have sold out of the first production run, and have released a second "wave" of the orcs and skeletons from that batch. While not new sculpts, this second wave has improved paintjobs. The next couple of series' master sculpts/paint jobs are up at the link Lord Tirian provided, and...

Not only that, but they released it about 6 weeks before the Expanded Psionics Handbook hit the shelves, making any crunch in the book almost instantly useless. I was really kinda disappointed that they went ahead and released it as opposed to pushing it back and making it compatible. Made it...

Back about 10 years ago I was into WHFB, and was also friends with someone in the distributorship business. They said that GW flat out admitted that this was their marketing strategy. Namely, produce a game like Blood Bowl, Battlefleet Gothic, Gorkamorka, etc etc, push it like hell in White...

Essentially, Strange Lands was a going away present to fans of the setting. They had entire setting books planned for each of these three continents and other books describing the monsters, spells, PrCs and feats all in the works when the line was canceled. So they threw it all into one last...

Advanced Dungeons and Savages should have everything you want. Also, the Savage Heroes website hosts tons of conversions and files like you are looking for. I believe they have a spell list for D&D to SW spells, except I think that one is specifically OD&D spells. Either way, it'll point you in...

Regarding Reaper's Legendary Encounters line, the first wave has been re-released, including 3 packs of orcs and skelies, and some have revamped paint jobs. Specifically, the skeletal swordsmen have red shields with a black chevron. Their upcoming releases look pretty darn good. Not sure how...

Veewwyy intewesting..... I guess the question now is, what scale are the figs? D&D compatible?

I've heard the hue and cry over the deficiencies of this PrC, now I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for taking the suck out of this class. Would better spell progression alone do it?

Savage Worlds has several fan-created PA settings, mostly conversions of other settings. Savage Gamma World, Savage Redline (from the d20 version by FFG), a zombie adventure (Zombie Run! which starts off a month after the "Night of the Living Dead" and the world is pretty much PA), and also a...

The Savage Worlds version is Deadlands: Reloaded. It is not clunky at all, and it still retains the fiddly bits; the poker chips, the dice (only not so many at once) and the poker hands. I have not run this version, but did run and play the Classic version, and I feel the streamlined new version...

War in Tethyr was the only book I have ever failed to complete. I not only failed to finish it, I was rather successful in literally throwing it across the room, where it lay in utter shame for about a week before being picked up and filed away on the bookshelf. That book was the crown jewel of...

Go to Flickr.com and do a search for "Dragon*Con" (or "Dragoncon" or "Dragon Con") and you'll get an idea of what the (non-gaming) hubub is about. About 10 years ago, it WAS a big gaming con, but it's gotten less and less gaming (save for what was an excellent open gaming hall) and more and...

The Scarred Lands has more than one Lawful Evil nation, and not conincidentally it is loosely based on ancient Rome. Highly efficient, with roads and laws and a highly organized military, but with decadent leaders, slavery, and oppression. Now Neutral Evil is a little harder to draw up without...

A recap (or complete reprinting, I forget) of the Psychic's Handbook appears in the appendix of their Advanced Player's Manual.

I can't believe you just used the words "chunky" and "fluff" in a thread about adult themed gaming material!

The Mithril Knight from S&SS's (that's a lot of s's!) Player's Guide to Monks and Paladins is exactly what you want, even if you might have to wiggle the campaign specific stuff a little bit. They get a personalized sword that increases in power with them, and one of the first benefits is...

Dromites = little grey aliens.

I just finished the original Tower of Deception for my Scarred Lands game (heavily modified, of course). The party got a misjump while extricating half the group from a nasty situation. Out of the frying pan and into the fire for those 4! I may have to create an account specifically to get this...

To avoid signing up to look at this one adventure, can someone tell me if this is essentially the same adventure as the "Tower of Deception" by Monte Cook that used to be a free PDF download?
