    Dungeon #119 .. Arrived Today!

    It looks like an all new map to me. The map is lighter, more lively than the gloomy map in the Living Greyhawk Gazateer. (It's full of lite greens not the grays and browns of the LGG map. That said, much of this map is desert. The Dry Steppes cover the west 1/3, the Sea of Dust the south west...

    Christmas Day - Why are you at EnWorld?

    No I'm not addicted to EnWorld ;) Taking a break. Already assembled my first Chrismas Lego (I'm a lego maniac!) and my son has build one of his as well. Extended family is coming in a few hours. Warming up after clearing the drive ... it's 7 (F) outside, before the wind chill! Merry...

    Christmas Day - Why are you at EnWorld?

    So, It's Christmas day. Most of North America (and Europe?) are spending time with family. Why are you here? -Swiftbrook

    I think its time to run a rules awareness campaign.

    Hey! I must object to this generalization :mad: . I've been around for 2 1/2 + years and have don't have 300 posts! In fact, I think this is my 100th. Just because I'm not a frequent poster doesn't mean I'm a trouble maker. Don't turn off the newbies with over gereralizations. -Swiftbrook

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    :) YES! :) I think someone ;) wrote a couple nice of articles in Dragon about regional feats in Greyhawk. New Greyhawk material, new Greyhawk material and how about some new Greyhawk material. Knights of the _________, with background information, one prestige class, and maybe a few related...

    Castle Needed

    One of my favorite castles is Conway in England (Wales I think). Go to Google and type in Conway Castle, then hit images. Here is a link to the basic floor plan. The castle, IMO, is not too big and not too small. A perfect place for a medium to high level party to call home. -Swiftbrook

    What's your screenname mean?

    About ten years ago I was trying to think of a good name for my character. It of course had to fit my concept: Greyhawk, Gnarley Ranger, Elven, and an Archer. Just a single name, "Swiftbrook" fit my concept very well. To me the name creates a vision of a walk in the woods--back to nature...

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    I think this is the best option. Alternate sections that don't appeal to almost everyone. If someone knew they were going to get Polyhedron every other month, or every third month, that might be what gets them to subscribe. I and others have suggested rotating setting articles every 3rd or...

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    What to Change/Add From someone who doesn't subscribe and cherrypicks issues: Have Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Eberron as regular features. 1 every 3 months would be great, 1 every 4 months, with the 4th being 'other' settings would be ok as well. 1-3 is best -- 4 per year, but in addition...

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    Mine comes in 2 weeks :) This is exactly why I have subscribed for the first time to Dungeon magazine. The only times in the past few years that I have purchased a Dragon magazine was for Greyhawk spacific material. Mainly, the material in Dragon is very hit or miss. Usally, for me, big...

    how have you amassed your D&D mini collection?

    Amazon: I purchased my first WotC minis here. A Harbinger starter set for $8. Liked it. Later I purchased 2 GoL from them. Got a good price and junk for mini's (poor selection). Left a bad taste for Amazon and minis. I wont do that again. Walden Books I purchased one (1) GoL here. Huge...

    Do you miss the Turn?

    AD&D (1E & 2E) had a 1 minute combat round with 10 rounds = 1 Turn. I don't mind the time switch. What I don't like is not changing the missile weapon rules. In AD&D, a long bow could fire 2 arrows per round but crossbows only one bolt every round or every other round in the case of a heavy...

    Unearthed Arcana SRD - SCANNED

    Project Started Allright folks, I've started. I'm looking through UA for PI. First problem....What do we call this project? Unearthed Arcana is a trademark and PI. We can't call this the Unearthed Arcana SRD. Can we call it the UA SRD? PI The List (page, column, paragraph, word(s)) 4, L...

    Unearthed Arcana SRD - SCANNED

    I'm not a lawyer but .... Why is this illegal if I own a copy of UA? I don't think very much. 99% of the content of UA is OGL stuff. Only a few items were listed as closed. In my reading, even the side bars, house rules, etc are OGC. I've got some of this done.... the basic structure set...
