I haven't run a Con Game but have played in some at Gencon and local cons. Honestly, I think there's a lot of luck involved. I've played in NMC's games in 06 and 07 and he has it about perfect from the GM's perspective. Preparation: It's obvious he knows the material inside and out since he...

WOTC has made promises..or teases..in the past that never panned out. I am going to try to not get my hopes up for D20 Modern but be pleasantly surprised if anything comes of it. Really, I'd be happy with keeping the same core rules and get a new book every once in while. Campaign settings...

I like the idea of the adventure paths....and a lot of the adventures. But they start good..well, not a big fan of Age of Worms...but ST and SC start strong with good stories, cool adventures.....then degenerate into some extraplanar, superpowered, overblown farce. The big bad can't be...

No more Compendiums. Ack. They're not complete, and since items come out after they're published, they're never up to date. I didn't buy Spell Compendium and I wouldn't buy any other one. If you're going to make a compendium, make is modular, like the old Monstrous Compendium that was a three...

Hey folks. I am running a D&D 3.5 game that I'd like to switch into a more undead-hunting type. I want vampires to be the main enemy. But I don't like D&D style vampires. I'd actually prefer more down to earth vampires, without all the funky powers. More "Buffy/Angel-style" vampires (a la the...

According to this link, Foe Hunter hasn't been put in any 3.5 book, just 3.0's Masters of the Wild.

If I, as an alien evil overlord, wish to conquer another world, I will observe that planet and covertly send agents to gather samples of various substances....especially substances that comprise oh, 71% of my target planet's area, like...water. And test them to make sure they don't kill me on...

Honestly? I'd make it modular, based on taste and PCs. I'm not a huge expert on WoD, but I have played Mage and Vampire and know the basic assumptions and such. Mechanics-wise, I'd use MC WoD. I picked it up at Gencon and love the mechanics, especially magic. What I'd do is start off...

Nice. If I had beat anyone to it, my response would have been "Rad? hey, Bill and Ted called, they'd like their slang back."

Xander was the Zeppo.

I played D&D in early high school then quit for six years while in late high school and college. I was brought back into D&D by some friends. I was brought back into the hobby by Dragon and Dungeon. They helped me forge ahead into this world I like so much. They are the only magazines I...

Word up. I have to second this. At Gencon 2006 (my first Gencon), I met a bunch of Palladium folks (including Kevin Siembieda who contrary to what you may hear, is actually a really decent guy and made the time to introduce me to some of his writers and chat with me about various items), and...

Have you tried the Adventures forum at WOTC's messageboards? Click here to visit it. It's not Demonweb Pits-specific but there are some people talking about it.

Eh, downhill. There's been a few I've liked...UA, PHB2 because of some nifty feats, the environmentals because they have as much fluff as crunch...I hate endless PrCs, feats, base classes...and the environment books seem to be a lot more than that. But it seems they have quit doing them. I had...

You know what separates us from the close minded nutcases who post on threads like that? We, as a group, tend to be a little more open minded, know that there are multiple sides to every situation, and can think rationally. And one more thing separates us. We can appreciate a joke, we have a...

A while ago, there was a website where someone had made spreadsheets of spells, feats, prestige classes, etc for D&D 3.5. That site seems to have disappeared. Anyone know where I can find a spreadsheet of D&D 3.5 spells from a variety of sources?

I see RPGObjects has been seconded already as has Goodman Games and Paizo. I'll nominate a less popular choice: Palladium Books. Despite what everyone thinks of Mr Siembieda or the company's policies, it is a company who constantly publishes imaginative material for one of their keystone...

I wouldn't say losing. My PCs accepted a job working as troubleshooters/security/law enforcement in a small mining settlement in the mountains of a desert nation. They uncovered what was preventing the caravans from reaching the nearest city and ended it. They rescued someone who turned out...

Small update to this idea. I have done a lot of writing to the super module since coming up with the idea. Some background I converted, with original module stuff in quotes: Khalitharius is now a powerful ice demon prince, imprisoned by an Elder Magi (Martek) several hundred years ago...

My players aren't really the types to be conversant with modules from editions past to a great depth so I'm not really worried about it. Hey, folks who know about such things: Can horses be used in extremely cold environments? Are they a viable draft animal or mount in an area of...
