Yes indeed! I used to buy my D&D books at Comic King in the Mall (Which was *THE* best place to buy, since the guy running the shop was terribly cool about discounts). I now buy at Chapter's as well, since Warp have lost what little minds they seem to have had. I was also unimpressed walking...

Well, I'm disappointed in that they are going with the company who makes the MK miniatures, meaning it will be very cheap, bendy, and un-correctable matereal, but for that cheap a price, I can put up with under detailed vinyl. I was, however, impressed that the paint jobs, while lacking any...

Well, After the initial coronary at seeing the 40mm to 65mm mistake, I have a couple thoughts on the new line. First, I believe they are doing the right thing from a business standpoint. While I detest the crappy pre-painted, gooey vinyl miniatures that I've seen from MK and the like, it has...

Wow.. Odd that I live here, and havent heard about *this* one. We have a lot of screwed up people in Edmonton (like anywhere else really), and when the cold weather hits, we get bored, put pots on our heads, scream, and run into the closet to sulk. ..Well, ok, we don't. However I'd wish that...

I have 2: One was in a homebrew D&D game I run. Two of the party were to meet up with a corrupted farmer's son who found a bleak tome that allowed him to tear the living force from nearby people and use it to fuel spells with. They came across him, exchanged words, and the madman started to...

No worries! I equally messed up anyway, so part of the blame lies on me.

I made a rather bad mistake setting up a gallery on ENWorld. If you do create an album, make SURE that you do not post pictures to it until you set yourself having sole permissions on it. Like a dofus I posted art, and couldn't figrue out how to get my name added to the 'permissions' list, as...

I'm currently in the West end myself, around 97th and 152nd street. I used to go to work roughly in the area that you are, or at least pass by there on the way. The world has indeed grown smaller!

I haven't got a clue what I bought that was new, yet old school, but the oldest rpg stuff I have are the old hardbound player's handbook, which I also picked up, strangely enough, at Whyte Knight (small world). I probably have a set that might be older. I know I have a red box of basic D&D...

Oh, and for folks hoping that they will indeed be the hard platic type of miniatures: Hard plastic models, If I'm correct, are die-cast. The process to make the moulds for such models is in the 'insane' region (Costing tens of thousands I believe), and is also pretty slow. This is why I worry...

I'll admit that I'm biased. Both in the fact that I have hideous amounts of the little bank account draining models, and the fact that I rather enjoy painting them. I had to put my vote of disgust down. However, I do believe figures should be offered to those who have been an 'outside...

For those who are stating that the pre-painted plastic will be both high quality material, and high quality paint, I personally don't share your enthusiasm. While, yes, for a LOT of people who play D&D, pre-painted would be a god send, it leaves the other end of the crowd out in the cold. I...

I'll paste my concerns here that I had posted on Wizards boards. Also, let me state that while a pre-painted plastic line is a good thing for a lot of folks who play D&D, and that I support *that* side of things, I don't like 'collectable' miniatures lines. I'd probably be less disenchanted of...

Greetings all. I haven't been around in what is likely a dog's age now, but I've been lurking for quite some time. I've been creating walls and flooring as a cheap substitute for the Dwarven forge style dungeons. I tend to create them for a homebrew that I'm running, and realized that there...

Interesting! And certainly, the tale of the Stormbringer campaign is along the same vein, since it surely sounds as if the character was acting within his mindset. Even evil acts as that are still considered true RP. I'm certainly giving a good deal of leeway to the player's next character as...

No, this isn't a thread about some bizarre frog creature of a player who's mere presence makes you stagger a few feet back and go 'whoa'. I'm just curious if anyone else out there lucks out on players who truly play characters as if they themselves had souls. In our last session, the group was...

Certainly! It's where I picked up my first Red box set of D&D! Kites and other Delights furnished (and started) my miniatures habit after that.

Holy hell. I didn't realize there were that many gaming Edmontonians.. But then again, I rarely get to play in any games myself (Well, when I was working anyway.. Now my spare time is taken up with job searches). I'll have to open my eyes a little more often it seems. I'm 28, and live not 5...

All is death. All is potato. Fear the potato. From the blackest fist of the earth stirs creatures so wracked with anger and hatred at not being harvested, that all life before them must be snuffed out like a flickering candle. Fear the potato. Farmers beware, lock your doors, keep your...

Seeing that I'm once again out of work in the illustration field (Or at least I think I am.. Is it normal for a publisher to take 4 months to get back to you? ;) ). I decided to pull up an old sketch of one of the NPC's in my campaign named Pallayne Gallowe and do a quick color job on him...
