I like the resistance to poisons and disease idea myself. But is there such a thing as a cockroach WITH a disease? Maybe throw in the ability to act with partial actions up to -9hp. That's some good incentive to take it, even if it is a cockroach. ---------- On further thought, I would make...

I was in the desert many years ago, in the Mideast no less, and I saw the most amazing daylight, nearly cloudless, rain and lightning storm. The bolts ran across the sky for MILES and MILES. It was incredible. Lasted all of 15 or 20 minutes and then it was back to normal. Talk about freaky...

Thanks to all of my players. I am disappointed that we did not quite reach the second incarnation of Flame, the dragon. But all in all, it was a good fight all the way to the end, the first ending anyway. I look forward to offering a very cool Savage Species adventure for the next game day...

Can I get a complementary copy of that for my wizard's library? I'd hate to think he's falling behind on his knowledge of modern cosmologies and stuff.

Now that I finally have some players, I wonder if I can glean any nasty DM goodness from watching the Hulk tonight! MWAHAHAHAHA! :)

For my Slot 2 "Old Embers" game, I'll have a small handful of pregenerated characters ready. There will be time to outfit characters with gear, magic items, and spells once we're all at the table. Drop-in players are welcome. In the event that your PC gets eaten by a dragon, a second course...

Don't forget their great auction where twice a year you can buy all those impossible-to-find and out-of-print items you thought you would never see again! Personally, I think I'm addicted to the figs. They even have Rackham's Confrontation minis!

It's not too late to join my game! High-level characters! Slay a dragon! Not just regular treasure, DRAGON treasure! And all that is just the warm-up! I'll have pre-made characters ready to pass out by Thursday morning, so leave an email address posted if it isn't in your profile and you...

Copy editors do proofreading for grammar. They are usually separate from a peer review, which is usually how it it done in academic journals. I certainly hope that they will have had enough peer review to catch any mistakes before they go to print. If you ever get a chance to proofread...

I think you need to get out more if you don't have hobbies other than gaming. If a backpacker wants to find a backpacker girlfriend, they should go and hang out where ever backpackers gather. If a jogger wants to meet a jogger girlfriend, they should hang out where joggers go to do jogger...

I think it is more than just the repeat of the art that bothers me. The new PHB still has those annoying lines in the background. Poor design IMO. It seems more and more that the 3.5 books are just a glorified reprinting. I still hope that the MM layout will be MUCH better though, even...

that whiteboard would have helped to keep the height of creatures in perspective. Oh well. I guess I can manage without it.

NEW GAME! Yeah, yeah, I know it's late. Well, here goes... It’s a late entry, but I’d like to offer a game in the second slot (in the now vacant private room) for between 4-7 players. It will be D&D core rules only, and made for 14th-level characters. It will be very loosely based on Andy...

As a DM, I cannot see it happening, even with a wish spell. You would have to "unmake" the unholy quality first, and then make it into a holy weapon. Why go through the trouble? It like trying to make a flaming weapon into a frost weapon. You are asking to change something from one extreme...

I use a screen, but almost never for the info on them. Rather, I use it as a kind of display board where I clip important notes, both for the players (on the outside), and for myself. NPCs, maps, and important random encounters are often on my side of the DM screen, while pictures of NPCs...

WotC has just stepped in their own minis this time. I think they deserve whatever success or failure they get from their new figures. :) Let the buyer beware! And let the rest of us look on with laughter!

I was gonna try to post something good about the new WotC figure line, but it totally escapes me at the moment. :)

Only one of their figs has eye pupils (the elf pyromancer). No shading No highlighting They have no "individual" appeal whatsoever. Before you know it, somebody might charge $40 for a super limited edition elite figure that tries ever so hard to look as good as a $4 Reaper metal...

Congratulations, Eridanis! Hope things go well for you up in New England. A pity about the timing though. Enjoy the nice weather up there while you can! There are a lot of great sights up that way when you find time to escape the cities.
