I think you have to compare it to the other activities to really perhaps divine why rpg gaming is less popular than it could be - compared with videogames, some ideas of the top of my head: * Videogames require you have a console/pc/etc - up front cost, and continuing costs to play subscription...

I suppose that's really my question - does the 24 hours have to be continuous in other people's views, or can it be broken into sections, and if so, what have you allowed / what haven't you allowed?

At about the end of hour one (or earlier), I would have asked the GM: "What's your intent with this puzzle?" and discussed, out of character, the frustration I was feeling since I had no idea what to do, nor any idea where to begin.

Per the SRD, "Writing a New Spell into a Spellbook Once a wizard understands a new spell, she can record it into her spellbook. Time: The process takes 24 hours, regardless of the spell’s level." I have a player whose character wants to write some spells off scrolls into their spellbook...

At times I wish the group I'm playing D&D with would go in that direction. Any suggestions on how to do that?

A case of Underdark. It was supposed to be unopened/sealed - if it was, then it wasn't packed correctly, as there was a duplicate rare, and I'm missing two uncommons :( On the good side, there's lots more infantry to scare the players with, and some of the rares are quite nifty (even if others...

Uneven equipment levels? In discussion with another member of the group I've postulated the following two examples - the result being that it looks Item Creators who charge other party members full market price can end up better equipped - resulting in perhaps uneven equipment levels - have...

Thanks for the answers folks - if I wanted to add a poll to this topic, is that something I can do by editing the first post or would I need to start a new topic?

In 3.0 I seem to recall there was a limitation that followers should have classes only in NPC classes - in 3.5 I don't recall that limitation being specified - do people use that limitation at all?

One of my players (I'm currently DM'ing in my D&D group) asked this morning about the number of followers he should have after gaining a new level - given that the character's followers and the cohort seem to mostly do things like looking after the party's horses or looking after the party's...

[Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong forum] When players in your D&D group get (or look to get) magic items made for their characters by other characters (PCs) in the party - do the players expect and get discounted prices for those items or do they pay full market price? One of my...

If there's been a previous discussion about this (where the text was declared a holdover perhaps?) could someone point me at that?

During treasure divisions, in determining equal shares of the total share - do you use the book value of magic items (etc) or the sale value (typically half in D&D)?

I think that was what was niggling at me ... Hrm...

Thanks for the prompt answers folks!

Golems have Immunity to Magic: and when my players' characters encountered a clay golem recently, their initial spell volley bounced off - leading to questions like 'what do we know about golems' and given the party composition a few I felt should know that spells tend to bounce off golems...

Any chance of a link to the thread about the list of plots NOT to use?

I actually prefer the Lucas directed versions over Jackson's hack job. Lucas Jnr has proven that he (if anyone) can direct/write the fourth Star Wars trilogy inmsho. Any news on the Star Wars(TM) rpg licensing? My group still plays the Mongoose version, but I prefer the GR version myself...

There are several errors in the review - for example, I don't believe that the Magic book has yet been published for the 2E of WFRP, yet the review implies that it's available - there's also several comments like: The current edition of WFRP is the 2nd edition. There are arguably only two...

To you perhaps, but to a lot of people who enjoyed WFRP1 and are now enjoying WFRP2, WFRP is so tightly integrated into the game world, that it's as much 'playing in the Warhammer Fantasy world' as playing 'the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay' system. The Warhammer Fantasy world is one where combat...
