    Role/Roll Playing

    So good roleplayers just copy what ever hackneyed, trite, fantasy character their stats suggest? Weird.

    *looks over poll options* Hmmmm...no "I'll stab you in the eye if you use this terminology around me." choice? Poll Fail!

    Dungeons & Dragons TV show DVD set on sale for cheap at Amazon

    I own that version. be forewarned it is a very bare bones kind of set (3 DVDs, no commentary and the DVDs come in paper sleeves inside the plastic box). It is cheap though (and that was all I wanted when i picked it up for $8 about a year ago).

    CoC: Miniatures vs. No Miniatures

    Have to agree. Even though I have a dozen or so CoC miniatures they have never actually been used in a CoC game. It just doesn't lend itself to a battlemat style game. And every combat in CoC should be unfair. Fighting usually happens when every other option has been tried or ignored.

    I think I might be a creepy older gamer

    How do you support a hobby store when you don't buy products from the hobby?

    I couldn't agree more. The flip-mats are amazing being useable with both dry & wet erase markers. I've got tons of DTs and have decided that, sadly, they just are too much hassle to use beyond some 'window dressing' (chests, tables, statues, pits etc). Except for the outdoor ones - those are...

    Getting my head around the Bard

    One thing you could try (that i did with a Favoured Soul caster I played who took nothing but buff spells) is to be the party leader/quarterback. Your job is to make the rest of the party awesome and take a great deal of pride in that. It is also a big responsibility as the party will come to...

    Can a Lawful Good character be flexible and fun to play?

    The best advice I can give you is to talk to your DM and find out how he interprets the LG alignment. The examples you give are most often dictated by a DM's style and/or an overly strict interpretation of the LG alignment and the Paladin's code. Define what that code is if you must have hard...

    No, Hirst Arts. Just...no.

    IMO those chewed up ones look battle damaged. Which is awesome! Makes me want to experiment with some pock marked dungeon walls. My awesome wife got me 2 Hirst Arts molds (#60 Prison Tower and #260 Flagstone Floors) for my b-day!

    No just the ENWorlders with thick skins and a lot of anger.

    Circvs Maximvs down

    Awww, shucks! And that is still my favourite avatar, ever. With RH on the job though it didn't seem worth it to keep changing it back over on CM! All of life's lessons we learn from video games. The cake is a lie.

    LEGO red dragon

    I worked with a guy whose nephew wrote a book about Lego - Lego Builder Guide didn't go into the history of Lego but it was interesting seeing the different parts and pieces produced over the decades. Man, I really want some Lego!!

    Circvs Maximvs down

    Because it happening to me too. I'm a nobody over there - tachying me would be like stopping all footage about Canadian politics in the USA. No one would notice. See - this is a lie. I never got any d**m cake.

    LEGO red dragon

    Do you realize what this means? There is a job (or jobs!) at the Lego company just for assembling Lego constructions! I want to kill my high school guidance counselor...

    How do you deal with traveling in your games?

    I have tried letting the players tell me how they get from place to place. In a campaign i was running the PCs needed to get to a huge market/festival that was taking place deep within a nearby desert. They were in the last town before entering the desert and wanted to see what transportation...

    No, Hirst Arts. Just...no.

    Very nice! One question - why is there a black bar around the groin area of that Chaos Warrior in the photos? That seems...odd?

    Hasbro/WotC's movie problems

    [/b] So you never saw it? Saw it on TV? Just trying to figure out if you made a decision based on what the movie was and not what critics called it. For myself the Transformer movies were as good or better than that awful 80s cartoon.

    Multiple Dice Sets Anyone?

    Letting one player annoy the rest of the group is a surefire way to ensure the group implodes. The other players already, seemingly, resent the dice-rolling player, soon they will resent you for not doing what a DM is supposed to do and stop annoying behaviour. Tell die-rolling man it isn't...

    DDI Monster Builder

    No paying for a (barely) beta version of program is where I draw the line. I mean with the old MB, while it always said it was a 'beta' version I could, in theory, have unsubscribed and kept access to the MB (but no more updates). Now you have to pay and keep paying for as long as you want...

    Subscription up

    Yeah I got the same thing about a month before my sub was up. I read and reread it just to make sure it was still going to end on time and I was not going to be charged. Does show the faith i have in WotC not to screw people over I guess.
