Dear OP, how would you feel if we would openly discuss your current employment and the probable chance that you get a kick in the rear end within the next few weeks? Your thread is tasteless, non-constructive and insulting to those that work at the company in question.

As a "get down there, killit, survivit, getdaloot" player that got stuck in the 1e era (now playing C&C) consider me one happy customer for this comic. If I find a channel that ships it over the pond at a reasonable price, that is. You guys can continue to roleplay your bard clipping his...

I could easily imagine a DM using that D20 with the words "Through the mists of the ages, from the days at the dawn of time, this die will make you tremble in fear and horror....The little kobold attacks with his vicious blade....*rolls d20*....BEHOLD! The Ancient Natural 20! *players flee the...

AFAIK you only are required to link a CC if you want to have a "Verified PayPal Account". Sometimes this is a requirement for some online transactions via Paypal and I know that some Ebay sellers request it if the item in question has a high value (i.e. D&D woodies)

Long time since I read the 2e material but from what I can remember is is more or less impossible to escape the Maze if the Lady wants it so. The fluff text explained something along the lines that everyone that gets thrown in to the maze has the chance to escape it again IF he is able to find...

Since I already have a CS until 2011 I've just send 100 bucks into Morrus' general direction :) Oh, and just as a tip: Why dont't you add a "donation bar" to the site like like they did at mythtvtalk.com. I think it makes it quite transparent for everyone how much money is needed to keep the...

I certainly would subscribe to it. I go to work with public transport and that gives me 40 min daily to either read crappy newspapers or intelligent RPG related podcasts :) There aren't many good rpg or D&D podcasts around so another one would be welcomed for sure. Re-listening those old Penny...

PC's all the way here, it's just not Windows that is running on them :)

Interesting enough I just had the same question about a week ago. I've used Dundjinni before but the software was not really powerful enough for my tastes and it uses too many system resources for the relatively small maps I tried to do with it. I also wanted to make battlemaps for our next...

My vote would go for Lord Tirians "Zeitboot" . It is accurate and, ahem, timeless, as a name. But yes, Germans just love(d) to have abbreviations for more or less complex names. So stuff like SdKfz (Sonderkraftfahrzeug = Special Vehicle) or PaK (Panzerabwehrkanone = Anti Tank Cannon) are still...

Yep, we play once a month since 15 years It works perfectly for us. And we do not do anything special when it comes to campaigns and plots. All we do is to assign a player each session to write a diary for the others so we are all up to date when the next session starts. We've ran campaigns...

First I would be on the lookout for another rules system that does not put that much pressure on you. Go rules-light and instead of using mechanics for the resolution of a situation just use narration with the occasional throw of the dice in it. It is always better to be able to concentrate on...

Great moment there. I had a similar thing happen to me in my last session. I am pretty new to DMing as well but our group plays since more than 15 years now. Now our old DM is a player in my group. Currently the group is trying to survive "Kill Bargle!" from Dungeon 150 under the C&C ruleset...

My recommendations would be: Civilization 4 (Sid Meier, looks like it would be easy as pie, but it's hard as hell to play it well) Europa Universalis III (hardcore strategy game) The Operational Art of War, Volume III (even more hardcore :) ) Aside from those you should at least have a short...

Actually I am buying many more minis at the moment compared to the months and years past. But this is mainly because currently the dollar is even lower than the Swiss francs

I thought the Economist was the last thing where I would see an obituary for Gary Gygax so I was even happier to see this when I bought it on Friday.

I would recommend "Entombed with the Pharaos" from Paizo's Game Mastery Line. I've read through it and really plan to run it in the future. If you want something bigger I'd look out for EGGs Necropolis hardcover monster adventure. Alot of the places and scenarios in there you can rip out and...

The boxed set is the fleshed out and enhanced version of the folio. It is by the same author and has been created after the initial first success of the folio. You have more content in the boxed set than in the folio so, except for a collector, there is no real sense in buying the folio when you...

Our gaming group will miss you Gary. You gave me 20 years of fun, excitment and adventure. And this is so much more than I could ask for from someone I never met in my live. If a person is making others laugh and makes them having fun and being excited for over 30 years, then that person...

When our group decided to create a second campaign there was the question whether we would go 3E, 2e, 1e or C&C. Given the fact that C&C is an in-print product that is readily available without having to hunt on Ebay the choice was pretty clear after a short time. C&C gives us the rules-light...
