Odd that. A couple months ago, I lycanthroped wererats and Thri-Kreen. The look on the PCs' faces was cool when the Thri-Kreen they were facing sprouted fur, ears, long teeth, got a little bigger, and took on a very creepy look.

The question shouldn't just be "Is this going to attract new players?" There's also "what types of players do we want to attract?" I think perhaps that question is what concerns so called "grognards." I know it does me and I'm not even sure I fit the profile of a grognard. I don't think we...

V: Second Gen looks interesting. It's being written and directed by Ken Johnson who did the original V miniseries. He however had nothing to do with V The Final Battle and V the Series and pans them whenever possible. To his mind, they're not canon. And based on the plot description, it...

I never thought I'd be reading a post discussing how pretty Ricardo Montalban is compared to Bill Shatner. This is why I come here. "I don't believe in the no win scenario" Admiral Kirk, Star Trek 2

BAM! Hit the nail on the head, QFT.

EDIT: I'll remove my sarcastic comment for the sake of this discussion. I'll just raise my eyebrow in wonder.

War of the Worlds The Series is a good gamer-like tv series. Small band of eclectic characters fighting a hidden threat. By eclectic group I mean: a hard nosed American indian army colonel, a single mother biologist, a liberal nutcase scientist, and a disabled bo staff fighting computer geek...

That's actually crap. I work for employer A, I do a lot of work for them, nights, weekends, etc. I want to do my best for them. They make a rule/policy toward their employees that is not illegal but I don't like, rule 33b. It treats employees unfairly. I communicate my feelings to my...

Actually, I will "pray" that the lazy writers get off their sorry high horses and get back to work. They are not bosses, they work for someone else. When you work for someone else, they set the rules. If you don't like the rules, you are free to leave and find a different someone else to work...

Wow. No reponses. I win the obscure book search I think.

can I play at your table?

I think I am going to give myself a lobotomy. Through my eye socket.

Easily dealt with using a trick I learned on here. Characters cannot use 8 hours to recover until at least 8 hours have passed since their last 8 hour rest period. PCs go to bed at 11pm, get up at 7am, eat and adventure until 8:00am and decide to rest again because they haven't managed their...

I'm running a low magic game in the world of Magnamund (from the LW gamebooks and Mongoose Lone Wolf RPG) with D&D 3.5, here's what I did: 1. Magic is uncommon but not so uncommon that peasants run in mortal terror at seeing a light spell, but they may give that person depending on whether...

I figured maybe some abilities would be in this awful vein, but all of them? Per Encounter? What a miserable, terrible idea. I was so hoping to keep participating in RPGA events too in Living FR. :\

Wow, I haven't laughed that hard in a long long time. THAT is funny.

Whoa, talk about thread resurrection. Hey! There's always War of the Worlds the TV series for inspiration.

Preach on. Vigilance makes good stuff. I used Blood and Vigilance to run a D20Modern supers game months ago. Its rocks. And it's easy to integrate. It slaps right on top of the D20 Modern rules set. Plus Vigilance is usually around here or other boards to answer polite questions. Yeah...

Actually, I'd argue that every SWAT team should have at least one. The guy wearing the UAS (Urban Assault Suit) has as part of the frame a motorized battering ram. He's the first one on the door, he takes the door down and steps inside. Bad guy starts shooting, and sees this badass looking...

When I first heard about this, I didn't even know it was a "search for the next great module writer." (Oh and I put my period inside the quotes; it's the way I learned how to write, although putting it outside makes more sense to me. Why wouldn't you end the quoted text with the close...
