    Even if it were, I'd be spending the same amount. ;)

    The Great d20 sell off begins with GRR

    My house? ;) I've been hitting these sales and eBay like crazy. I've gotten more books the past 4 months than I have the past 4 years. Kenzer & Co and Green Ronin have both dipped into my wallet. Fantasy Flight Games is having a one week sale, but I think it is almost over now. I'll have to...

    Will you buy the preview books?

    As the saying goes, "There's an exception to every rule." That was all speculation anyway. :D

    What's With Paying for Previews???

    I stand corrected. OTOH, $20 of my subscription at the time got me about 7 or 8 magazines with those articles. (That's a very rough guess.) The countdown articles had previews of the actual rules themselves. ON top of the previews, I had lots of material for my 2e games at the time. This time...

    What's With Paying for Previews???

    I considered the previews free. I paid for the content I was able to use at the gaming table. The ads and previews in the magazines by other companies were paid for by those companies, not me. WotC ads and previews were no different. For me, the preview book would be a waste of money since...

    What's With Paying for Previews???

    The comments were long lost when a hard drive crashed. All I'm willing to add is that the comments were ignored enough that I , and a few others, were left off the play test credits of that particular book and one other. After that (and some personal issues at the time), I quit play testing. I...

    What's With Paying for Previews???

    Unless it has been changed since I had mine, we could let people know we were play testers; but we weren't allowed to discuss anything we were working on.

    What's With Paying for Previews???

    and are probably the same people handpicked from the message boards for play testing. speculation, they only want the 4e fans to play test for them so they can be told how wonderful it is. I've not heard of ANYONE that has spoken anything negative at all about 4e become a play tester. I know...

    Will you buy the preview books?

    and writers. I'm convinced the only reason 4e is coming out so soon is the current writers want their names on the game. Hell, from what I've heard, one of WotC's main writers (not going to mention who) was a Jr editor before the layoffs and wasn't "allowed" to write. That was a good choice as...

    My google-fu has been weak lately. Has the Foxwoman from 1e MM2 been converted?

    D&D 4E Does anyone agree with me about 4E?

    But...but... I liked that movie.

    D&D 4E What has you excited about 4e?

    Have you not played the "Master of the Desert Nomads (X4,X5,X10) series? or the Bloodstone (H1-4) series? AMEN The stuff they've posted about 4e has been about a 50/50 hit/miss with me. On the plus side: I like the new cosmology. I never really liked the Great Wheel but accepted it as I...

    Tell me of Kingdoms of Kalamar

    I had the original orange box set before Kalamar jumped into D&D 3e. I bought the 3e campaign book as soon aa it hit the shelves. My players had never heard of Kalamar before I started my first campaign there. All of them LOVED it! As a DM, I've abandoned other published settings. I might snag...

    Gruumsh killed Corellon Larethian - replacements?

    I'm interested as to how well this plays out as I'm planning to have a god killed in my upcoming campaign.

    Jazz, like opera and classical, are also on my list but not listened to frequently. All of the CDs of these types in my collection are "best of" and other compilations. Someting I forgot to mention was a bit of ragtime. My Scott Joplin disc goes through cycles of being in my player for weeks at...

    Welcome back! Check out Savatage: Dead Winter Dead, great riffs and vocals. With the exception of some of Manowar's tunes, the stuff I listed is pretty much scream-free. I'm definitely with you on that. John Norum's solo stuff has seen a lot of play on my winamp lately as well. Check out his...
