    What would D&D look like without the emphasis on minis & maps?

    After playing D&D for 15 years without maps and figs, I think that using figs is a huge improvement. Without them, combat usually consists of something like this: Player: I swing. 22. I hit. 12 points of damage. DM: Ok the orc swings. 12. He misses. P: Ok, I swing. 19. I hit for 10 more. Is...

    Is this an evil act, or not?

    I didn't read this whole thread, so if someone already said this, forgive me. I don't think killing defenseless creatures is evil if those creatures are evil. You see in D&D, good and evil are ontological realities, existent entities, and not just viewpoints. This is attested to by all the...

    Burning out on best campaign I ever played in

    Detailed DMing As a detail-oriented DM, I can say that railroading is very bad, but obviously most DMs work better with time to plan in advance. Of course some of the most fun times are those times when things are winged completely, but I think on average a little planning increases the fun of...

    Silliest thing you've seen in a serious campaign...

    One time in an old serious campaign, as a little side vignette I made my group go up against a BBEG called "Echo" who commanded a whole tribe of wererabbits. That's right, they had to fight Echo and the Bunnymen.

    Point me towards a good adventure

    I need a free online drow-related adventure for 3rd level characters. Know of anything that might be passably good? I have a pick-up game to run tomorrow and I don't feel like putting a couple of hours into designing my own. I need it soon. It's alot to ask for, I know. :)

    Greetings all! After a missed month (sorry, I was overseas), the August update to the Farland website has arrived. It consists of: 1. A spinning globe map of the planet Nurion, on which Farland is located. 2. A 3-D map of the Spur Fortress complex. This is a must-see. 3. A write-up on the...

    [3.5] Narrative instead of Miniature based games

    As someone who played using narrative combat in 2e, I have to say that the precision of mini combat is a 100% improvement. Personally, I would never go back. Of course that's just me.

    Your review of 3.5 after play-testing

    So I just got back from a month abroad, and 3.5 came out in my absence. I haven't had a chance to look it over yet. What I need to know is, how is it, now that you've had a chance to play test it? Is it an improvement or not, and why?

    WotC boards (slighty ranty...)

    Simply not true. It takes alot for the mods at the WOTC boards to ban anyone, and complaining about them or WOTC is not enough to get them to ban you. In any case, except in very extreme cases everyone gets three warnings before banning.

    WotC boards (slighty ranty...)

    Actually I hang out there a bit, and the mods don't tend to lock threads that criticize WOTC. They lock threads where the people who are doing the criticizing have violated the COC in some other egregious way.
