I think this is exactly true. When you see a really funny movie like...Tropic Thunder, do you think "Well, I guess it was funny. But not as funny as the stuff we say at Game Night" and mean it? Then this is the movie for you. If, on the other hand, you think "I am not a writer and certainly not...

Gosh, let's see. DUNE is my all-time favorite board game, been playing it regularly for 25 years. We play with one house rule; you may only ally with one other player, and together you must control 4 strongholds to win. We use all the optional rules except the one that requires you to pay spice...

How did you find the process of getting on the Nook, compared to getting on the Kindle? Easier? Harder? Basically the same?

It's getting bad reviews, even from people who really liked Pineapple Express, which says something. I saw it alone, sans game group, but in a theater. No one laughed. I laughed once, when James Franco aces a dude and then shouts "FACE!" at him, which means not only are these actors playing...

I would have liked a version/aspect to fight at lower levels, maybe like 16. But once it's in the monster builder I can do what I want with it. Muahaha!

Furthermore, it wasn't ever clear to new players that any of these things were possible. The universal refrain from the new player in his first turn was "what can I do?" The answer was usually "whatever you want!" Which is patently false and highly problematic and meant the GM would have to...

A friend of mine went and bought a big sheet of plywood, covered one side of it in green felt, and attached four metal feet to the other side, each about 6 inches long. The four feet are placed such that they'll sit on his dining room table, and the plywood is much larger than his table. So...

I think WotC already produces more high-quality player and monster options than any group of players could possibly exhaust in a lifetime of play. So I don't think there's any real need there. I think the only real need is for more adventure and setting content. Setting content, you don't...

Yeah I've got an Excel calendar right here. I sorta presumed someone at some point had done something on the web that let users create and share their own custom calendars. Somewhat surprised Obsidian Portal doesn't do it, but the dude says "It would be hard, yo." Someone on RPGnet suggested...

Thirty Dollars! *cough* *hack* *wheeze* Good God, man. What does it DO?

I'm looking for an online tool that would let me put my setting's calendar online, let the players see it, and let us all make notes on it. I'm speaking here about the fictional calendar of the world, not in any way our calendar. No tool that works only with our calendar would do the job, as...

Be great of we could get the Combat Manager on the iPad.

I'd like to be able to run Fantasy Grounds from the iPad. But that's never in a million years going to happen. Just the Encounter part would be enough though.

I mean like...where *are* the free ones? I couldn't find any free maps. You mean like...I subscribe to get some maps, and you throw other maps in free? I...you know, it's your business, yo. Run it how you want. I just want the digital maps and I'm happy to pay for them. I don't want to...

The maps looks great! Ah...I'm a mite confused by the "Free" term there and the cost. Are the maps free? Are there free ones and expensive ones? I'm specifically interested in the digital versions for use with VT.

I think Fields of Blood was a book more read than used, so I suspect you're not going to find much. Though, you never know! I'm working on a 4E Solution but right now it's more a framework. It absolutely works, and it's fun, but right now it requires me be there to build all the events and...

You are totally not a spammer!

Presentation is part of Design.

The *potential* for the iPad or something like it is pretty phenomenal. With a front-facing camera, which we'll see in the next rev, you could run the whole table using ARG. Though most of the ARG apps I've seen so far are pretty dodgey. If the Combat Manager ran on the iPad, that would be...

The notion that once you've used a special ability, here called a spell, you can't use it again for some period of time, in AD&D a day, is classic design. Nothing wrong with it. Reload times, opportunity costs, you find these everywhere and they're all just variations on the same idea. We...
