    What do you want to see in your Fantasy RPG miniatures?

    I don't know if a set like this would sell well, but I sure know I'd buy them up in a heartbeat.... Go through the list of pre-painted plastic D&D & Pathfinder minis, compare that to all of the D&D monster books from all editions & all campaign settings. Then make miniatures sets that contain...

    Talk to me about Planescape factions

    The game is known to be quite buggy. If you haven't already, search the web for a few of the Torment patches. There are also a few very good patches that do things like run Torment at a higher resolution and stack items in inventory that were not originally stackable. As for the factions, there...

    What Conversions Shall We Do Next?

    I think only the ones with "CREATE" are questionable. I'm pretty sure I used your index to locate 3.5 conversions for everything that I could not easily find conversions for. It was mostly the adventure & supplement books I have listed at the end that had monsters that don't appear on your...

    Converting monsters from Tales From The Infinite Staircase

    The Shad were converted in Denizens of the Inner Planes. Echohawk mentioned that the Shard are actually the Sliver that appears in Dragon Mag #353.

    What Conversions Shall We Do Next?

    Ah, ok that makes sense. So TftIS is using "Celestial Slivers" rather than actual "Shards". So the Shards are just Planetars with some class levels or something? "Shard" is the name of the group of Planetars and not the name of a type of creature?

    What Conversions Shall We Do Next?

    On page 68 of Dragon 353, under the Ecology section of the Celestial Sliver, it says, "Some have confused slivers with the shards......but they lack both the power and stature of those awesome beings.

    What Conversions Shall We Do Next?

    I would gladly help out with whatever I can. My only concern is that I am nowhere near as good at converting monsters as you guys are. My conversions usually only consist of adding class levels or a template to NPCs, or using a similar existing 3.5 monster and slightly tweaking it to represent...

    What Conversions Shall We Do Next?

    I asked about these conversions in the Planescape thread. Cleon suggested that I post my requests here. I'm preparing to run the Tales from the Infinite Staircase adventure and there are a few monsters in it that I have not found 3.5 conversions for yet. If anyone could convert these, that...

    Pathfinder 1E Player Dilemma: How to bow out of a campaign you don't like.

    The issues sound pretty small compared to the things you enjoy about this game/group. How do you know that once you quit and join a new game, that game won't be even worse? I say stick with it and make the most of it unless the game is simply boring. Sometimes I wonder if people latch on to the...

    Do your PCs have a designated leader?

    I tend to be one of the more outspoken & take charge players in the group. I have mostly DMed in my gaming career, but even before I was a DM, I was always looked at as the party leader among my friends. I eventually got tired of being forced into that role and I purposefully made PCs that...

    Presenting "Fluff""

    I miss seeing a brief description about what an NPCs personality is like. Even in some 2e settings, an NPC would include just a 1 sentence description of their personality within the stat block. In Planescape, the books contain a quote from an NPC. Some of these brief quotes have given me an...

    Converting Planescape monsters

    Hey guys, I hope it isn't annoying to put a request in for conversions. I'm preparing to run the Tales from the Infinite Staircase adventure and there are a few monsters in it that I have not found 3.5 conversions for yet. Any chance you guys could work on some of these? This is the order that...

    I Have Created the Most Detailed Game World!

    What about posting up the high res image as a jpg for people to use? I'd love to see that first town map in the original digital format. That would be great to use for when I need a quick generic section of a town. There are so many locations to choose from on a single map.

    Let's Talk Initiative, Shall We?

    "Let's Talk Initiative, Shall We?" Ok, so what I'm wondering is why people are using the term "nish". For one, there is no letter "s" in the word initiative. Secondly, there is no letter "h" either. Also when abbreviating a word, isn't it customary to start with the first letter of the word and...

    I Have Created the Most Detailed Game World!

    Thanks, now I don't feel so bad about the amount of work I've put into my own game. It is pretty amusing to see you mention several of the things I have done (even Spottle Dice). Do you have a gallery where we can view them (and steal them)? I have a huge collection of maps that I have grabbed...

    Hardest lesson to learn as a DM / GM?

    My biggest lesson would probably be to not DM for someone that I don't enjoy DMing. Other notable lessons that I learned would be: We're getting older. The way I ran a game as a young adult simply doesn't work later in life. More responsibilities means less time to game. Less time to game...

    D&D 3.x Converting old Modules to 3.5 help.

    In case you missed it, a lot of old modules have been converted to 3e and are posted on Enworld. I think a KotB conversion is here: 3e conversions I haven't checked it out, so I don't know if all of the encounters are converted.

    Would you ever watch other people play RPGs, as entertainment?

    This is the true story, of five strangers, picked to game in a house, roleplay and have their sessions taped, to find out what happens when gamers stop being antisocial, and start getting annoying. I'd totally watch it if they used the basic premise for what makes reality shows a hit (fill a...

    Lots of short games or one long game?

    My pet peeve is playing in a game that is short term or dies out quickly. It bugs me more when it is the DM that ends a game after only a few months because he wants something new. I like to develop a character beyond just what he gets as he levels up. I would be content playing the same...
