    Dice Mojo Rituals

    I think he wins. I just glare at my dice and switch out when they misbehave. My Gamescience d6s were banned from a Shadowrun 3e game after I rolled a total of 17 dice after pool dice and karma point to reroll when making a fairly important but not that difficult(TN 4) check and got a total of...

    Every go through your books and find extras?

    I don't have any RPG book multiples, but I've managed to wind up with three copies of the same Forgotten Realms novel, and two copies of two others. Whoops.

    Weird Dice

    I need those monster dice so bad. And those d17, d18 and d19s. My favourite weird dice I own are probably the 32-sized glass die and the gamescience d50, though the dTotal is also awesome. I dearly wish someone would make d48, d60 and d120s. (As well as more commonly available elongated...

    4e Extravaganza Seminar (with Cover Pics)

    Well, there's a Genasi in the most recent batch of "Player's Handbook Heros", so I wouldn't put it past them to do it eventually.

    Do you actually CARE about your PC?

    Generally yes. Some more so than others. Nai Calus was my first PC, a half-elven Bard in 3.5. He has entirely too much of a backstory in every incarnation of him I've done. The character made his first appearance as a Phantasy Star Online character of mine, reappeared with some alterations in...

    4e Extravaganza Seminar (with Cover Pics)

    If the third book isn't Eladrin I'll have to hurt someone. (And for the love of Corellon, can they put some *male* Eladrin art in it when they get there? I'm tired of having to photoshop glowing eyes into every picture I might want to use as a character portrait for a male Eladrin character)...

    D&D implicated as possible cause in assault case.

    Man would that be a boring show.

    It's Dark Sun

    Right, Dark Sun should stay just the way it is, lest we have a repeat of the godawfulness that was 4e FR. (Which is fit only to swipe the Swordmage class, Drow and Genasi from and not for using at all.) (Besides, if any kind of decent astral realm existed in the astral sea were it included, I...

    It's Dark Sun

    You'd make a lousy copywriter too, K_M. ;) Any time anything begins with going on about 'tired old fantasy cliches', I do the following things: 1. Stop reading 2. Figure the writers have no idea what they're doing because they feel the need to start with an attack rather than with why what...

    8-sided d4? (Or: "My Google Fu is weak") ...

    That settles it, I'm just plain going to have to figure out some way of going to GenCon next year so I can rifle through tubs of dice. (To be fair, I have my own tub of dice since I'm nearing 1000 at this point, but that's dice I already own, which are fun but not quite as fun as buying dice.)...

    It's Dark Sun

    I didn't forget that, I just didn't mention it because it's supposed to be a huge shock to the players when they find out. Especially with the requirement that at least one party member is one unknowingly.

    It's Dark Sun

    The new version's focus will be on the 50,000 survivors of Athas after the Warforged nuked the planet, as they search desperately for a mythical planet named Htrae in their fleet of spelljammer ships, while fighting off more Warforged attacks. :angel:

    Ok, so what's the 2011 setting...?

    You sure we're not clones of eachother? Probably new. If not, I want Greyhawk. It has the best human gods and it has the Seldarine, what more do you want. A small part of me wants Planescape just to see how badly they screw it up.

    It's Dark Sun

    Meh, figured, still disappointing. Two years in a row with campaign settings I don't like at all, and Dark Sun doesn't strike me as even being something to mine classes/races from for other stuff, so I'm very meh on this. Here's hoping for something better in 2011.

    Pathfinder 1E [Pathfinder] Well done, Paizo! (Pathfinder RPG)

    I've read the other bard abilities. Most of them do nothing at all for me, are largely variants, or are meh. Most of Pathfinder is meh to me honestly. The changes do not at all fix what I hate about 3.5, so it's already missing the boat for me. The 'derp' thing with my favourite class is kind...

    Pathfinder 1E [Pathfinder] Well done, Paizo! (Pathfinder RPG)

    Because the Bard class totally needed a nerf. *sigh* Yeah, Pathfinder is definitely not for me. (In every campaign I've been in, the rounds per day thing is a massive nerf. YMMV, but for me, ugh. We tend to drop quickly to 3 players + DM, fight multiple enemies at once and have drawn-out...

    D&D Insider Free Compendium Weekend

    Maybe it's just me, but the Compendium crashes Opera every time I try to go to something or search for something.

    So you find a portal to a game-verse - where do you go and what do you bring?

    Let's see. Setting, Planescape. If I get to pick a specific area in the setting, Arborea, preferably Arvandor. Taking my dice collection and my D&D books since those would be a bit hard to replace there. Also enough toilet paper to last me until I find a suitable substitute. Anything else, sod...

    Pathfinder 1E [Pathfinder] Well done, Paizo! (Pathfinder RPG)

    Do Bards still have the silly 'can't be lawful' restriction, and did they keep that stupid rounds per day thing on them singing?
