    Randomized Mini's or Not?

    So would that translate into paying $32 for one 8 mini booster because that is appoximately what you would pay for pre-painted plastic miniatures singly. Somehow I don't think the market would bear that kind of price increase even with non-random packaging.

    When was the Golden Age of Dragon magazine?

    Wow. No truer words have been spoken err typed. I still fondly remember playing in a game with a Psionicist (issue #78 I think) and an Incantrix (#90?). Still have some of my oldest issues from around that time. Especially the 'Chessboard' covered ones. That being said I have to say the...

    RPG-ish Boardgames

    Descent and Runebound are tied imo for best fantasy boardgame I've played. I own both and get a lot of enjoyment out of them. What I found really cool is that the games use the the same characters and you could easily play a Runebound/Descent campaign with Runebound being the overland trek and...

    Sell me on creating new d20 fantasy PDFs . . .

    Honestly while I have bought a few pdfs in the past (well more than a few including about a dozen of philreed's Dozen...) I haven't bought any in about 8 or 9 months. Not because I have anything against them but mainly I wanted to fill out my hardback collection (that and the books that have...

    I wish D&D skeletons could dance like this [video]

    For real fun play the song and watch the video (with sound turned down) at the same time. Dam that's some funny stuff. :D

    Need opinion on Dragon/Dungeon

    My personal choice would be Dungeon - besisdes the adventures (which are good to fantastic - it is rare I encounter a poor adventure in Dungeon mag anymore) the DMing articles in the back are always interesting. I loved the Scroll Matrix that gave a large list of variations to the standard...

    A PC who wont kill

    Mental sickness? Uh, ok. Anyway a monk player in my game has a code against killing sentient life. He uses non-lethal damage to puthis opponents down (although occassionally other party members have killed an enemy he was fighting) but he has no compuctions about destroying undead, constructs...

    Best 3rd edition adventures

    Age of Worms Adventure Path - taken in its entirety this is one bad muther of an adventure. Can't wait from the hardcover release and I've already run 1/2 of the dang thing! Terror in Freeport (I think) the one with lizard/snake people trying to take over Freeport and the Sealord building a...

    Is mapping a lost art with adventurers?

    Mapping was one thing I absolutely detested in early D&D. I still hate it as both a player and DM and generally just map for my players to give them an idea what the dungeon/town etc layout looks like. I think I would actually quit a game that required me to make detailed maps of encounter areas.

    Do Personal Opinions Of Authors, Etc Dissuade You From Purchases?

    Wow. Almost 77% of responses say that personal opinions either have lost sales of are a contributing factor. I'm rather surprised at that as I don't think the pervious poll was quite so heavily weighted that way.

    Do you use miniatures/tokens in your D&D game?

    I am intrigued by your ideas and wish to subscribe to yuor newsletter. ;) I have always used miniatures in my games. Right from the Red Box Basic Rules set to 3.5 D&D. I started collecting and painting minis long before i even heard of RPGs. I don't paint much anymore but have 100's of the...

    NHL Playoffs 2006: Round II

    I have to say I think the Oilers chances have been crushed to near non-exsistance. Roloson is a top flight goal tender - neither of his back ups are near his level and the Oilers need that kind of support in the net. It is a shame really but I think this could be a short series with Carolina...

    Do You Often Get Beyond Mid-Level Play When RPGing?

    I'm frankly surprised at the poll results. With nearly 60% of people saying they never get past mid level no wonder we haven't seen a new Epic Level HB! I figured mid level was 10th, 4-7th is barely out of beginner levels, so nearly everyone of my games has gone beyond this (some very far...
