minis galore Heck yes. Bought two packs of Underdark and one pack of Archfiends minis for myself with some holiday cash at the store, then recieved a pack of Armor Wars (go Executioner!), and then a slew of Warhammer minis. I will be painting orks for months to come... :) ho ho ho

What dot.com were you at?!? I have three long gone dot.com's to my name, and the whole notion of pink slip parties and severance packages from companies that never had any viable capital to begin with stinks of myth to me. ;) Then again we did have that air hockey table... good times...

I smell a hippie-commune-style business plan. ;) "But, man, I thought it was your turn to create monsters, this week." Joke aside, so long as D&D remains open-license, can't we all just focus on D20 products while WotC figures out how to market the core game, now that they've let go...

Keep in mind, PR and Marketing are pretty different arms of business. WotC hiring two PR firms may be unrelated. The business 101 explanation is this: PR is the process of announcing your business' accomplishments to the public at large through media channels; Marketing is the process of...

Hear hear. I've been at two companies that did massive cuts before the holidays, and the whole thing smacks of Ebeneezer Scrooge. If from a business perspective they're looking for a whole End the Fourth Quarter / start a new year thing, they can do this after Christmas, when folks actually...

Touche' Just would be nice if there was a map or something generically sword-and-sorcery to get the ball rolling for players and dm's alike. Heck, even the old blue-box Expert set had a town map and some adventure seeds to get the ball rolling... (here I go again, crotchety older gamer...

Not disputing you, Belen - especially since you're a delegate and probably spend more times in games shops than I do - but anecdotally speaking (As I think almost all of us are in this thread), of the 3 tables that I ran on D&D Game Day this year, the ages spread from about 10-60. Kids are...

Who wants to bet that the trade paperback Player's Handbook in the starter set has dramatically less spell content (maybe levels 1-4 or something?) and trimmed equipment to account for the 160 pp. page count?

I don't know - check out the wizards boards - I've seen a lot of folks in Australia, Europe, and Asia talking about playing today (or last night in many of their cases). Anyway, I'm headed to TimeWarp Comics in NJ to DM a game or three. Hope to see some of y'all there.

Can anyone who has this elaborate a bit more on the "Added content" that I'd heard about? It's little beefier than the existing DMG, no?

This mod's had quite a comeback, lately. The NWN adaptation about 2 years ago, the Goodman Games revamp of it (smuggler's caves or something) and the DMGII usage of the town of Saltmarsh. It's a classic. The sequels are less brainy as I recall, but they still made a classic arc that helped...

Just an FYI, the following message just appeared when I tried to load the site, again: Oops. There may be an issue with the URL Forwarding service for this domain, in which case our technical staff is currently working the situation. Otherwise, this domain is currently under construction and...

Yeah, I started that other thread, but since this one's bumped up, I'll post here. I checked a DNS registry site and it says that their site is active, but I too have been getting this error. I think there's a DNS registry error somewhere. If someone has the ability to PM or email the Admins...

Anybody else having issues loading this site today? I'm getting redirected to a domain name renewal page hosted by: revenuedirect.com. Even trying to load subpages or subdomains (E.g. srd.dndonlinegames.com) is causing troubles. If any of the admins are checking this board, please contact...

Savage Species... Man, I was jazzed for Savage Species...still haven't had a PC that was even a kobold, though...

age of worms. I'm running a campaign of Age of Worms - Whispering Cairn over on the dndonlinegames.com boards. It's going pretty well. These are awesome mods in this series, with a strong 1st Edition feel. Oh, and I ran Dragonfiend pact - it's pretty dern good. Another 1e chameleon. Gives...

well, the good ones, anyway... I gotta say, for us attention deficit disorder easy to read gen-x-ers (and gen-y-ers, I assume) there's nothing better than Dragonlance or Forgotten Realms. The Eberron books ain't bad neither. I've tried the Farseer books and some George Martins, but eeeeh...

Evocation Must have been all the magic missles and fire balls while playing the old Gold Box games... :lol:

Cthulhu by Gaslight and Ravenloft: Masque of the Red Death are both excellent takes on this sort of thing; ones which dovetail nicely, I might add. Victorian gaming rules. Saw someone mentioned Space: 1889...wow...flash to the past...

Great stuff; great cause! I helped proofread this, and yeah, I was blown away. Generally, I'm not too big a fan of monster supplements, but a lot of these are very imaginitavely done. And hey, it's for charity, so do a good deed and get it, folks.
