    Living Greyhawk - Opinions?

    Last night I had the dubious "honor" of playing in my first Living Greyhawk session (Mysteries of Crystal Canyon part 1 or something like that) - and I have to say that it was one of the most dissapointing D&D experiences of my gaming career. Further - I really do not blame my DM or the group -...

    What was your first ever D&D product?

    1st Edition Monster Manual - bought it at the Lowry AFB BX. I was a big fan of Greek Myth at the time and saw a book that had numbers assosciated with them - nothing but goodness!!!!!

    the bard's broken ... in a good way

    I agree wholeheartedly with this - if your other class is anything that has a progression associated with it, it is just not worth it. However, if your other class is rogue or monk, it might be work it. doing the Bard1/RogueX has a couple of advantages to it - especially if you are creating a...

    the bard's broken ... in a good way

    Actually, I was planning on something very similar with my next character - getting 1 level of Bard and taking the Feat from Song and Silence that adds 4 additional bardic uses per day...... Also, perform is a class skill for rogues.

    If you needed to impress a god of destruction...?

    One thing that I can think of would be the destruction of a valuable piece of art or culture. Immagine the favor you could gain if you destroyed the Mona Lisa or David? - Perhaps breaking the leaning tower of Piza?

    [OT] Atkin's Diet

    Here is another vote for the "Body for Life" type excercise. As said above, fundamentally it revolves around 3 things: Eating healthy Buring Calories through Cardio Increasing Metabolism through resistance training While not overweight, I had a problem with my colesteral(sp) When I started...

    $1000 Where would you put yours?

    I have to agree with Number47 (to an extent - rather than a Charity it would go to my kids college fund - a charity of sorts) At this point, I have to say that I will only buy supplements on a very selective case by case basis. Now that d20 has been out for 2 years, I feel that most of the...

    [OT] What is the best selling beer in your country?

    Personally, I find Beer to be less than tastefull (Vodka is my favorite).... but what I do find funny is how people will look at regional beers from other parts of the country as being "good", but would never look at the stuff if it was "local" - I guess familiarity breeds contempt. Bud/Bud...

    any players of collectable or vintage games (OD&D, Etc.) here?

    Now that you mention it, I think that the Rules books came in a box with character sheets, dice and the rules book. The equipment book was softcover and each of the modules (which = a movie) came shrink wrapped.

    Has the Main Page gone Static?

    Ah, excellent. That makes all of my concerns go away. I was going to ask what you were envisioning the main page's function to be? (and probably should have at the get go) Typically those pages with lots of text get updated frequently - - while the more image centric ones are simply a...

    Common Commomers

    As mentioned in another thread, there seems to be some level of demand for "normal" commoners as opposed to polymorphed trolls forced into being street performers..... As an attempt to rectify this, I encourage each of us to create 1 or 2 of these "normal" folks that we could start plugging...

    [OT] Cyber-Begging; I shouldn't be surprised.

    Actually, I would suggest that our society is designed to coddle the clever and manipulative. I say congratulations to Karyn. I won't give her money - but I am not going to begrudge her right to solicit. In fact, if by donating to her the donater feels good about themselves who are we to...

    Bottom 5 D&D and D20 items

    Here is another vote for common commomers. I One of the things that has always bothered me about my campaigns and the campaigns that I play in is the seeming 2 layers of people in the worlds. You have the PCs and the major NPC who are sort of taped on top of the unwashed masses who make the...

    [OT] the advert at the top of this page

    Apoligies to Eric's Grandma....... First, "she" is laying on her side. Next, think of "her" bellybutton sitting right about where the "s" or "y" is in the D20 logo. Now follow a line up to about 2'oclock - See the Circle, with the bump. Well that is the start of the naughty bits. Almost as...

    Has the Main Page gone Static?

    Fair enough - although I humbly suggest in the future to move away from from so much text on the main page - especailly as we move away from the 24th of September. (of course this may have been your plan all along) Personally, I always start to suspect a site when the last date is 6 months...

    [OT] the advert at the top of this page

    First Optical Illusions and now this? For the record, I don't see it either..... The cloud looks like a deep-see fish instead. The circle above the Ship would be the eye and the mouth is right below the a in Aerial.

    Has the Main Page gone Static?

    Potentially stupid question........ With the News moving over to the new site,I have notices that the main enworld page to have become very static (i.e. it has not changed in over a week) While this does not present a large issue for me since I know where to go in ENWorld, it could appear to...

    Info on the USSR needed for my setting...

    One of the fundamental things that you will need to decide is did they invade the west? If they did, they you have lots of interesting things to play with - and I would encourage you to read such books as the Third World War and Red Storm Rising (both have the West winning, but you could change...
