I was kind of wondering what a rube was.

There was a 1st or 2nd ed module (I forget which). As a random encounter a dwarf with plate mail and a Dwarven Thrower hammer would just burrow from out of the ground, he would check the sun, check the wind and ask which way was east. He could not be bothered with introductions because he was...

I like playing rogues and I sympathise with players that do. I am a rogue friendly DM as long as the rogue doesn't make himself a nuissance. A while back I was regularly playing with a group of people (two campaigns, two different DMs, same people). I found out that in both of the games...

I am so glad that I was there to witness that whole thing. When the Paladin started rolling and that 6 came up as the first digit I thought I would burst. We now have an artillery piece that fits in our front pocket. As for the demon thing - I'm not sure Lady Milla (the Paladin) would stand...

I have been in a weekly campaign for about a year and a half. We started out at 1st level and are now just reaching 16th level. This is the highest level I have attained in a 3.x game. The campaign is winding down in the next couple of weeks and I will be sad to see it go. I was looking...

Thank you all for the great ideas. You have eased many of my concerns. I think that with your ideas I can run a good and entertaining 3.5 game, and still retain the same 1st ed feel.

Thanks for the quick reply. I browsed the website you listed. Although It looks like it is primarily for players of the Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil, I think I can get some good stuff off of it.

The game that I am playing in is starting to wind down and a new one needs to begin. The people I currently game with are in their early twenties and have little to no experience with 2nd or 1st ed. I thought that I would introduce them to some of the old school goodness. I asked them if...

Although I try to use the term game master, dungeon master still slip out more often than not.

Keep on the Borderlands has a special place in my heart. I will have to say that Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh is my favorite however. Bloodstone Pass has great memories for me too.

I used to play in a gaming group where most of the people in the group were "evil". Evil in a Dr. Evil or an Anne Rice Evil way. I guess what I am trying to say is that the evil that they played was either a little bit comic or just rather dramatic and goth. I never really liked playing...

I put the longbow in the same place I put my familiar.

I would like to introduce you to a little guy by the name of Miggins. He is a gnome about yeah high and he rocks. Every Sunday night he uses Snow Song, Elation, Haste, inspire competence and inspire greatness on the party. One right after the other, but not in that order. By the second or...

Helios Rising was my best purchase for this last year. I recommend it and Dawning Star to anyone who is interested in a d20 sci-fi game.

As I have said before, my first true love is sci fi. I would love to see someone come out with some starship combat and creation rules that are better than those found in d20 Future.

As much as I like fantasy, sci-fi is my true love. I bought Dawning Star late last year and the follow up product, Helios Rising, in August. I cannot say enough good things about those products.

All of the deities that I feel strong about (one way or the other) are gone. I guess I will vote Hextor off, even though his clerics are such great plot devices.

This happened recently. Party is in a dungeon and come accross a room full of orcs. The party is an underpowered fourth level. The fighter and paladin go rushing in and find more orcs hiding. They get to single diget or negative hps and are almost surrounded. The rest of the party panics...

Yep, the whole loser and satanist thing. While they sit around and watch NASCAR all day.

Get one of those "dogs playing poker" pictures and just photoshop a dmg and some dice in there. Fun stuff
