    Reaches of Hanadel -- A First Edition PbP Campaign

    Greetings, I really like the look of Unseen Servant's PbP forum site, so I've decided to run a game over there. I just PM'ed the admin for a forum, so I'll update here with the details of the site. The campaign forum is located here: The Unseen Servant forums • View forum - The Reaches of...

    T1-4 Temple of Elemental Evil 3.5 Conversion Complete!

    How timely. We're starting a ToEE campaign this weekend. Can you shoot one to me as well? ragboy *no spam* @ gmail dot com I'd be more interested in Scourge than Tomb.

    Never Played 1st Edition

    As others have said, ignore most of it. Players handbook, "To hit" tables, saves, treasure, and MM are pretty much the meat. If you've played 2nd edition, you've played the best of 1st edition -- though the kits and proficiencies only exist in the much later stuff (Oriental Adventures, and the...

    Need a military term

    Here's what the wikipedia says: AC-130H Spectre[29] (Prior to circa 2003) 2× 20 mm M61 Vulcan cannon 1× 40 mm (1.58 in) L/60 Bofors cannon 1× 105 mm (4.13 in) M102 howitzer (Current Armament) 1× 40 mm (1.58 in) L/60 Bofors cannon 1× 105 mm (4.13 in) M102 howitzer I watched these in...

    Well, the good news is that one's free.

    pulp adventure, train encounter

    New adventure from TAG might help; it's Savage Worlds...but the title should give you an idea of how applicable it might be to your needs: http://www.tripleacegames.com/ccount/click.php?id=21 Rocket Nazis on the Orient Express!

    Avatar game?

    Well... they made it slightly easier to stat everything up here: direhorse [Pandorapedia] Looks like a monster manual entry without the stats... :) Oh -- And I'd go Savage Worlds. This is "Princess of Mars" territory. Very pulp...very fast -- light on detail high on action.

    Need Minis for a Half-Life Con Game

    Hey, I'm running a Savaged Half-Life (as in the video game) scenario at MillenniumCon in November, but I need ideas on where to get good minis for it. Looking for: - Headcrabs - Zombies I can figure out - General alien-y type figures - Scientists and security guards - Bio-hazard suited...

    Savage Worlds

    Welcome to the fun! It's all in the trappings. You may have two guys that have the "Slugger" edge, but one of them is a boxer and the other one is a martial artist. If the players are cynical about it ("but it's the same effect, so the characters are the same!") then they're playing a different...

    [Savage Worlds] Fantasy Adventure

    Just finished a high-powered fantasy adventure as my inauguration to the Fantasy Companion: mysticbull / devastator Deep in the Brushnab wilderness, the heroes find Fort Durgin destroyed, its inhabitants slain, and a giant hold burned through the living rock revealing the plundered tomb of an...

    Savage Worlds

    Blam! Savage World's Card Dealer Also, Odds and Evens dice roller has a Savage Worlds option with card deck: --unfortunately, doesn't look like Odds and Evens is still out there. Great dice roller if you can find it.

    Savage Worlds

    My experience with the game has been completely different. If you start your character at the Novice level, then you're a...novice... not sure what else to say about it. If you want to play a high-level campaign, then you play a game where you start your character at a higher rank. Fairly...

    Weather -- when does fog appear?

    In the context of an adventure, fog appears when the story calls for it. i.e. when you decide. Unless your players are more into accurate simulation... No disrespect intended, but it's easy to get mired in details at the expense of the game. YMMV.

    Forked Thread: Bought Savage Worlds, what should I know about it?

    I *think* they're releasing them as books, but you'll have to check the peg site. If you're not into PDF's, then that might be a problem, but it's a lot of great suggestions, examples and more content that you don't have to build yourself in various genres. Really, it's redundancy of both...

    Forked Thread: Bought Savage Worlds, what should I know about it?

    Though you have to spend money for these, I'd recommend the following: - Fantasy Toolkit(s) - Sci-Fi Toolkit(s) - Pulp Toolkit I didn't find the Horror one all that useful. Also, I have a bunch of free junk on my website... mysticbull.pbwiki.com

    Saltmarsh and the U-Series to 4e

    When I converted it for 3.5, I made Ned a werewolf, in the classic sense. He was actually a good guy that didn't know he was part of the problem. It was fun, but like someone earlier said, veteran players see that stuff coming a mile away.

    Rocketship Empires: Temple of the Fire God - Episode 3

    The world is my own design...though it's essentially just the Gran Chaco area of Bolivia/Paraguay turned into a world. I would caution that the owner/lead designer of RSE has been AWOL for a while. Might be a dead system...though technically it's system-less :) The forums are kept just above...

    Savage Worlds: Rocketship Empires 1936

    I've done it several different ways, but I found that building web pages only gets in the way of what I want to do, which is actually develop the content. The least intrusive "web page builder" I've found is pbwiki. If you go to their site, they give you free space, an editor (wysiwig or wiki --...
