    Whats happening with Dark Quest Games

    Many people have asked us recently whats up with the release schedule for Dark Quest Games. Release times have been really slow, and there haven't been any notices recently. The reason for this is that we've been working on releasing products in print. Your local retail store will be able to...

    Secret Doors: Elves vs. Rogues

    Yes. the whole 2 minutes standing in a 5 foot sqaure looking for a secret door well tends to irk the rest of the party... especially if they turn around and say, "Nope, nothing to see here." Of course it explains why party rogues end up getting lost of extra treasure... the rest of the party...

    Necromancer Q&A: Let's ask Orcus some questions!

    Oh yeah.. Return to the Vault of Larin Karr would be a great one. The group I play with just finished VoLK, after almost 7 months of playing. Figure 120 or so hours of game time. Definitely got a thumbs up from all the players.

    Top Fashion Games Now Selling Products (New Company)

    I originally suggested that Dave should call the company on rpgnow something like BDAMF (Buy Dave a Motorcyle Fund), but I guess Top Fashion Games will work. Please take a look at what Dave has created when he isn't working as a staff writer for Dark Quest. The ideas a mental hospital put in...

    What Empowered value gets multiplied?

    The answer to the various questions... will it really affect game play that much on either ruling... no. So if you chose to accept the Customer service ruling then it makes it easier for game play than to continue arguing over it. Do I believe that the magic missile example should stay...

    FLGS- Old Inventory and Organization UPDATE!!

    For me, it just means almost unlikely to buy it at the store. The only times I even go to a GS (none exactly local to me, and not very friendly) is to browse the book to see if it is really what I want to get. I can buy unseen and cheaper online, so I only go to the gaming store if I am...

    Familiars in the campaign

    Considering you mentioned one of my products I know I can point to various things in it to utilize. First of all, you'll want to consider which aspect of a familiar you will want to use in your campaign. To introduce a familiar into the game without necessarily forcing it upon the spellcaster...

    What Empowered value gets multiplied?

    My justification is a WOTC customer service responce. Not the best justification, but the only one, since the magic missile example seems to contradict it. If it involves caster level, that is not part of the variable. But if it is a specific number, then that is part of the variable.

    What Empowered value gets multiplied?

    Seems like it still hasn't been agreed upon. The caster level comes in after the multiplier has been added, making those numbers considerably lower.

    Can flying creatures tumble?

    The official answer from WOTC was that yes, you can tumble while flying. They only suggest additional penalties as assigned by the situational means the DM has applied. Personally I would suggest utilizing the maneuverabilty class and using it to replace the normal Dex Modifier for tumbling...

    Wishing Health to Bastion Press's Steve Creech

    While Steve Creech is currently heavily medicated, we at Dark Quest would just like to wish him a fast recovery from his surgery. And I promise not to forward you all the spam I get for Vicodin ads. Heres to good health from now on. (I'll drink your share of alcohol until you are fit to carry...

    Have you bought any books because they won an ENnie?

    Well, certain categories like that sell the artist. Not to the buyers of the book, but the buyers of the art. Aka, the artist gets a good selling point to the publishers.

    Staff reviews of EN P's books

    I am a firm believe that scores are always biased. If a new company comes out an releases a product with the quality of Monte's work... with errors, then they still deserve that 5. If they still have the same errors 4 or more products later then they don't deserve that number anymore. But it...

    Staff reviews of EN P's books

    Yes, that splitting between print and PDF does segment the number of reviews... which makes it hard to hit the number necessary to get it on the top 20 chart.

    Yet another sneak attack question

    While I don't see it as unbalances either way you chose to rule it. I personally would not allow the Seeking to allow the sneak attack. Skeeing isn't making someone non-concealed. It is just veering towards the target. Sneak Attack requires really good aiming and picking vital areas. You...

    Have the third-party d20 publishers failed?

    Actually I think that 20% of the market has been disproven. It might have been valid for WOTC. 4 players/1 DM model. That assumes that every player and the DM has a Player's Handbook. It just isn't true for most suppliments. The buying market is heavily swayed to the DM. Rarely is the...

    Is there anyway to publish without using a fulfillment house?

    We've been contacting distributors directly for the past few months. My experience. Of the ones that gave me a detailed responce. My highest priority one notified us that they wouldn't even look at our products without fufillment, and then gave a recommended list of who to contact for...

    ENnies V - and beyond...

    When you make the change of this sort.. you change it from being an award for a company... (one artist/one product in particular with the direction of the company's art director) to an award for an artist.
