    how to convince people that D&D is not evil

    I've been playing D&D since the early 80s (back when it was really evil), and the parents of my group complained that shouldn't be wasting our money on this "devil junk". I countered with "OK, I'll just waste my money on drugs and booze." After being told that was stupid, I brought up the point...

    What Would You Want In Future 3.5 Products?

    My bad. The first couple of posts were pretty much the answers I was looking for, then things went off on a tangent about the creation of minis. When things started returning to the main topic, the answers suddenly began to focus mostly on WotC stuff. Therefore, I shall try to reword my...

    Let's Write a Bad Module

    I'm still reading through this, but did anybody remember to add the rule that on a natural 20, everyone at the table must move 2 seats to the right unless they are seated on the opposite side of the table? If they did and I have missed it, I apologize.

    What Would You Want In Future 3.5 Products?

    Since I asked the question of who would continue to support 3d party publishers who carried 3.5 products, it made me wonder what you would have to see in these products to make you want to buy them. New spells, races, prestige classes, what?

    Best Value for Money RPG Purchase

    I would have to say, for me and a couple others in my group, Heroes Unlimited. Vampire the Masquerade would probably be a close second.

    Your dream DM

    Cool choice. Can't beat that logic. My choices? 1. John Woo--talk about Oriental Adventures action 2. Stephen King--we'd all end up dead or turn out to be aliens 3. Didn't Jessica Alba once mention playing D&D in an interview? If so, I could enjoy an adventure with her.

    No 4th Edition

    Well, my motto is "If the glove doesn't fit, try a different glove." :]

    Oh Yeah.. Gnomes...

    Gnomes can be awesome in the right hands. It is unusual for one of our adventuring parties to be completely gnomeless. I had a tinker gnome once that was arrested on many occasions for doing xorn impersonations (think about it). He was totally convinced that the magical effects he created were...

    But What About 3.5?

    After reading most of the comments concerning the eventual appearance of 4E, I was wondering who all would still purchase 3.5 stuff from 3rd party publishers if they continued to support this older edition?

    No 4th Edition

    If my group decides to switch to the eventual 4E, then they will have to find somewhere else to play. Based on the various rumors (and, I admit that that is exactly what they are for now), I want nothing to do with 4E. I will probably just say screw it and spend even more time letting the...

    Total Freeform Character Generation

    Several years ago, the group that I adventured with actually did characters based on ourselves. We picked the class, then figured out what our real life stats were. Once we put down what we thought we deserved, the group reviewed each character sheet and made adjustments. We ran these characters...

    Help Twinking Out a 12th Level Monk

    When it comes time to buy you spend your gold, you might want to check out Arms and Armor from Bastion Press, Inc. It is available in both 3E and 3.5, and contains weapons and armor designed specifically for monks. They are a bit pricy, but an example of each is Sash of the Master (adds both a...

    Where can i find info on Necromancers?

    I know these are 3E instead of 3.5 products, but, with the information available, upgrading shouldn't be too much of a problem. Necromancer's Legacy--Mystic Eye Games Encyclopedia Arcane: Necromancy--Mongoose Publishing Secret College of Necromancy--Green Ronin Publishing The last book...

    a quick question

    Think low magic, or, better yet, no magic. When my party goes adventuring, we always make sure to carry a bag of flour. Whenever we are attacked by something unseen, we throw down a bag of flour to coat everything in the immediate area. Hard to stay invisible when you've got a white coating all...

    Looking For A Monster

    I've come to the conclusion that I'm crazy, and that there never was a 3E version of the Clockwork Swordsman. Now, the big question is--am I crazy enough to attempt a conversion from 2E to 3.5E. Thanks to everyone who offered their assistance.

    Looking For A Monster

    I've checked the first three, but my group never really got into the Arcanis setting. I might have to fall back on the clockwork template and design one myself. Now that you mention it, I think someone actually did bring an Arcanis book to the game one night. Thanks for you help. Sykopup

    Looking For A Monster

    I believe that is the one. Somewhere, there is a 3e version because it had been made into a sentient creature that had an ECL of +1. It's possible that the stats were accompanied by a color picture of the swordsman. It is also possible that there were a couple more clockworks on the same page. I...

    Looking For A Monster

    Not the creature I was looking for, but that was in the book I thought I was looking for. Thanks for helping me narrow the search.

    Looking For A Monster

    I need some help. Sometime in the past, in a book that I can no longer remember the name of, there was a Clockwork Swordsman. If this monster sounds familiar to anyone, and you know the book it was in, please let me know. For some reason, I am thinking it was in a Forgotten Realms book. Thanks...
