    Editable Calendar with Notes?

    I guess you could get a bunch of Hershey chocolate bars and scratch notes on the backs of them (maybe divide each back into threes to save money. Candy is getting expensive!), which are flat. Then eat them when you're done.

    Curious about something: would you play in an AD&D campaign?

    Yes. In fact I am actively looking for first edition PHB, DMG and MM on eBay for a good deal right now!

    How Do YOU Envision 4th Edition?

    I envision it as real people... or live action if you will, and with relatively little special effects actually. Have you ever seen the movie Ladyhawke? Or Robin Hood? Stuff like that. Ladyhawke Trailer Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Trailer I especially do not envision Evanescence in the...

    [Dread] Jenga beat up my dice! My results from the indie horror RPG.

    About the dice rolling mechanic for Dread... I agree that physically pulling the blocks from the tower and all the stress that comes from it is all part of the game no doubt. It's really that 'prop' that makes the game. It's like if you played D&D with a deck of cards instead of rolling dice...

    Lame!

    ;) Oh yeah. Sometimes I throw in a little extra for Uncle Sam too. I know he needs it.

    Lame!

    Bummer. Can't you guys get the Govinator to like.. bash some skulls and fix that? I remember a month or so ago they tried to make us pay online tax here in NYS but we put our foot down... or just don't. Whichever. I forget the reason from what I recall it was some loop hole.

    List of what changed - especially spells?

    Is there a comprehensive list of what got changed - especially which spells - in the Beta version? I've got a Pathfinder game gearing up and I don't have time to cross reference every single spell for real minor stuff like what I found between the old and new mending spells. Thanks.

    Need some ideas for warm/hot savannah terrain encounters

    How about dire elephants and/or rhinos? Or a Dire Rhinophant. Or perhaps a Elephinos?

    Columbus Day adventure

    Well in that case... The characters could start in the 'old world'... someplace they are familiar with. The group is contacted by an associate who has discovered that the world they live on is actually spherical instead of flat. Or maybe the other way around, it is fantasy after all! :cool: The...

    Columbus Day adventure

    If you wanted a 'real' Columbus voyage I'd say mostly things that are not allowed do to Grandma rule and TOS.:blush: If you want a fantasized one, then perhaps a new type of humanoid. Such as finding 'elves' or 'dwarves' for the first time.

    Tell me about Burning Wheel

    Well... I think BW is a good read. Really makes you think about role-playing and choosing actions that a (your) character actually would do. And the very core task resolution system of the game without any strings attached is nice. But good golly when I did play the game it felt more like doing...

    Can you tell me more about Traveller? (Forked Thread: Space RPGs?)

    Ah that clears things up then, thanks RFisher. Maybe I'll use my D&D - Dungeon Tiles as templates and/or create my own and use them to help build custom ship schematics.

    Can you tell me more about Traveller? (Forked Thread: Space RPGs?)

    Just to update you all. So far myself an a few gaming buddies I have shown the book to are having a blast just making characters. I'm also having a blast rolling up random planets and comming up with reasons for all the parts to fit together. I've also been having fun making ships. But I was...

    Tell me about Savage Worlds

    Well to start out I'll point out that I am also a big fan of Savage Worlds. I'm even set up to run a game of Savage City Ransom (think River City Ransom) this Saturday at the Albany Gameday. Hmm... what can I say that the posters above me haven't already mentioned? I mean all the best points...

    Can you tell me more about Traveller? (Forked Thread: Space RPGs?)

    I actually am not too interested in the Third Imperium setting either. As someone who just a week ago never knew that Traveller existed, the amount of information is just too much for me. The combination of this huge established setting to sift through and my own inclinations for creations (I'll...

    Can you tell me more about Traveller? (Forked Thread: Space RPGs?)

    I have some speculative questions on combat. In some of my cruisers around the huge amount of Traveller resources I've found on web I have noted that combat (especially 'face to face' gun/melee combat) and just being hurt in general from mishaps during a characters life can rapidly becomea bad...
