I need this to nearly finish the best put together city... Quarter means 4 right; we need the merchants quarter to finish the whole thing out.

This is the town of Northrun, part of The Last Dominion setting for Hero System. I gotta give props to the stunning maps above. Holy smokes some of them are stunning. They give me lotsa good ideas for a map that I am woking on (when I can get off the net).

Great Read! LMCLAO! I was too poor to actually buy anything in them days. Instead I cracked a box open and looked through the rules after a friend suggested that we "run each other" in a D&D game. (Run each other meaning that we both played and GM'd at the same time). I knew that somehow I...

33 is one of the best stories - sci-fi or otherwise I have seen. Nail biting.

A "no, but... " answer for me. There are people out there who I refuse to support with my money BUT none of them work in RPGs. IMO, it is ok to have any reasonable opinion about anything; it is the rabid evangelizing of said opinion that turns me off to people/products.

Hero system games. I don't do much d20 other than using it to spawn ideas.

WOD books intrest me as I try to put everything together. I had buckets of Vampire books (40+ though I only played the game once or twice.) 7th Sea is the same - I own almost the entire line because it is darn fine reading but I dislike the system and swashbuckling is a plague to me (in RPGs)...

First, I think PC is spot on. Now to go a little further, I think a setting needs to know what it does and it needs to do that well. Plenty of settings have failed financially but continue to live on because they "hit the sweet spot" and continued to do so. Birthright, Planescape, Dark Sun...

I think Midnight pulls it off with style, not to mention it has a dozen or more supplements to flesh out the setting. It has more than enough resources and more coming out all the time. Conan, AGOT, and Black Company aren't that shabby either.

I threw book three in my back yard after ***The Shocker*** Mumbled around for half an hour then went and dusted the mud off the cover and started reading again. You either love or despise Martin round these parts; I fall firmly in the LUV category.

I'm an "Other," being a father and a husband is important work. It isn't that I can't find childcare or that my wife dislikes my hobby --- to be specific, I only want to spend a few "normal hours" out of each month away from my family in pursuit of roleplaying. I game once every two weeks from...

The are several types of editing - proof, copy, developmental, etc... Assuming that you want a proof reader who helps with grammar, dropped words, and spelling the following rates are my best ball park guess. I have seen prices quotes several ways so I will mimic them: Per Word: $0.005 to...

I started a thread on Hero Games that has links to hundreds of fantastic illustrations. I know there are a few dozen stunning mattes and digital paintings that you might find awe inspiring. There are other links but I usually try to indicate the nature to save time. Daily Art Findings

Gimmel has 2-3 "stories" but it is kinda like reading a John Wayne movie... They rock, he gets the girl and delivers a righteous beating/shooting to the bad guys. I love John Wayne stories and I love Gimmel books but the only one that is noticibly different is Troy Lord of the Silver Bow. There...

The third book of Cornwell's Alfred The Great Series... The 10th? book of Whyte's Camalaud Chronicles. The 2nd book of Gimmels Troy series... The Lord of the Silver Bow stands high above anything he has previously done.

I know I said I wasn't in a hurry but I figure a week-ish bump may be in order. :]

Hero or MM are the kings of the sandlot. I hear lots of good things about MM but have always been a Hero player and prefer it to just about anything.

1. LOTR series 2. 13th Warrior 3. Gladiator 4. Troy 5. Excalibur There are several other good ones but those are my favorites.

I read every book unless I buy it only to find out that it sucks. I may even read those books that suck if the topic is one that I am interested in. I don't read every article of Dungeon or Dragon.

I wondered who would be left holding the "ugly bag" at the end of the day. Best of luck.
