    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    GONE MISSING Chapter 9 Ross and Stephen parked their car a half-block away from the storage garage. There were even some trick-or-treaters out here, moving from store to store. Ross shrugged, showed his shotgun. "What are you DOING?" hissed Stephen. "It's part of my costume." The two of...

    Dark*Matter The Killing Jar

    Never ran Killing Jar, although it is on my bookshelf. I'll take a look at it this weekend. By the way, did you email me for the "Cattle Mutilatons" notes? Someone did, and I carelessly lost the email.

    Swashbuckling Adventures

    Gotta throw in for Savage Adventures here, but be aware you're basically building from the ground up until 50 Fathoms shows up. But hell, on a day's notice I threw together a Neo-Tokyo game with a vampire, a robot, a mecha-girl, Speed Racer and a forty year old Guy with the powers (and...

    More wiggle room in dying rules?

    Two suggestions, more for simplification than improvement -- I do have to ask though, what the HELL are you doing to your poor PC's to drive them to -20 on a regular basis? :) First, just lower the spontaneous stabilization FORT SAVE DC. Unless their opponents are in the habit of walkin gup...

    WOTC D20 Modern vs AEG Spycraft

    Ranger REG, you like iterative attacks? Darn, and I usually think you're so dreamy. We may have to break up. I don't think "support" means the suicidal 10 splatbooks a month TSR-doom ramp you immediately jump to, either. Spycraft averages a splatbook every four-six months or so. I'm sure...

    Story Hour Trailers

    Carnage, thousands of men SLAMMING into beasts, titanspawn. QUICK CUTS of heads flying, viscera spattering. DEAFENING NOISE of metal on metal and bone, all in the pouring, drenching rain. Corpses fly away from an exploding series of FIREBALLS. The opening of Gladiator, but bigger --...

    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    She'll be tickled that her misery brought pleasure to others. I'm ramping up a new Dark*Matter adventure, so I'm hardpressed to come up with something else that'll spook her. Unless I lift from The Ring. And then she'll never, ever come back.

    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    Oh, I'm fine. The group came by last night and broke yet another module in their quest to burn down everything in the Scarred Lands. Just been stacked trying to finish scripts before the end of July. Either I spend the time prepping my games or writing updates, and you don't want to see Jo...

    DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls with Guns ... UPDATED - 8/18/05!

    GONE MISSING Chapter 8 “What the hell is Majestic 12?” asked Jo. “You missed my lecture on Major Power Conspiracy Networks back at the Insititute?” Denis asked, disappointed. Jo frowned, thoughtful. “Hmm, I don’t know, maybe that was when I was STARK RAVING MAD LOCKED IN A STRAIGHTJACKET...

    Scarred Lands: None Dare Call Them Heroes (updated 12/07/03)

    CH. 8: "Wherein our heroes receive the blessings of Meepo, and discover said blessings are precisely as useless as one might first assume." A short time later, Kirby waved the rest of the group toward him. They approached suspiciously. Meepo the Kobold looked them up and down. “Meepo does...

    I saw THE CORE! [not completely OT]

    Ah, inside joke about the friendly (and sometimes not-so) rivalry between stand-ups and improv troupes. I'm pleasantly stunned that people are still posting here. Glad to know some folks are enjoying it. And that gaming website is coming up. Just got to clear out my summer's worth of drafts...

    No. Just mutated dogs, a massive seething proto-baby-mass, Agents from the Matrix, a running gun battle/car chase, a cop in a robot suit, and a 40 year old man in a little girl sailor suit wielding magical powers. You know, the usual.

    D&D 3.x [3.5] - Hewards Handy Haversack to be toned down.

    Ah, agreed HHH is rendered somewhat less useful by all those nifty FR bandoliers and belts. As a matter of fact, the rogue in my campaign has all sorts of oils and potions and alchemist's fires hanging off of him. However ... the first time an opponent smashes one (soon, very soon), I'll bet...

    Scarred Lands: None Dare Call Them Heroes (updated 12/07/03)

    The website waits until after June -- I'm travelling for about a month, so I'll try to do some updates, but I can't do any real detail work. So far I've got the "Budget & Gadget points for D20Modern" article done, and a fair chunk of using Gadget Points as the basis for a balanced pulp system...

    Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! (update 4/03 and 4/06)

    "Heh, I'm going to have my PC's interrupt a ritual, that'll be INCREDIBLE, an epic moment -- hey, Piratecat just updated! Let's take a look!" *reads* "... ah." I don't know what fills me with more rage -- trying to top that sequence, or that PKitty has players who know how long it takes to...

    I like Mandy. It's Angel's favorite song. Thing's have been a bit nuts, trying to finish my usual horrible workload before I take off with the lovely wife for our anniversary trip. I'll try to dash one off before we go, and then definitely do one when we're up visiting her family in Ottawa...
