That's awesome! Someone give that guy an Ennie...

If they put out a crunch heavy book such as that now, after the beans have been spilled, who would buy it?

When GURPS 4e was announced, I sold my 3e stuff on eBay intending to upgrade as soon as the new books were released. It didn't work out that way; however, today I have four shiny GURPS 4e books sitting on my shelves (Characters, Campaigns, Magic, and Powers). With Mutants and Masterminds, I was...

They have probably been working on the new FRCS almost as long as 4th Edition, hence no supplements.

Quoted for truth.

Give them action points, and a list of things they can use their action points for. I'd suggest that 2 action points to stabilize a character a -1 hit points rather than dying is a good place to start.

None - but then, my players have not reached high enough level often enough to really delve into the Spell Compendium - most of their spells were drawn from the PHB. Although orb of force is a popular choice. The way I see it is: anything they can do, I can do more often. (If truly necessary...

The law vs. chaos conflict is present in a good deal of Monte cooks work - I'm thinking particularly of Chaositech and Ptolus, although there is certainly a bit of chaos=bad in there as well.

Or you can switch to a d20 Modern style wealth system, instead of gold pieces, characters have a "wealth bonus" and must make a check to purchase stuff. I've wanted to use it in play a few times, but never got around to trying it out.

Eberron is a good idea, it's a fun setting that puts a refreshing spin on a bunch of D&D stereotypes. I'd also like to suggest (although I'm not sure it will be available in time) the Pirate's Guide to Freeport, or possibly the Freeport Trilogy. While these adventures aren't wilderness based...

It looks like a nice set of guidelines. Do you find that point-buy is embraced by your players though?

I counter with, "Jack: Gwendolen, it is a terrible thing for a man to find out suddenly that all his life he has been speaking nothing but the truth. Can you forgive me? Gwendolen: I can. For I feel that you are sure to change." from The Importance of Being Earnest

Ignoring, of course, 3E's already published Draconomicon...

Just... awesome :p

Or just give them all a free level of cleric, then everyone can use cure wands. Edit: Parties of three have tended to be the number of players I can get into any one game at any given time. If you are running combat heavy adventures, then yes, you do need to either: a) make some encounters...

I wonder if Banjo will supplant the 12 (or is it 9) gods?

They charge a monthly fee, and you get a break for committing to 3 or 6 months.

I'm thinking of starting a meetup group to try and find some gamers in Kelowna, but would like to know if anyone else has tried, and whether or not the experience was a positive one?
