OK, I read that one completely the wrong way. American Standard beware, there's a new group of adventures after the porcelain throne. Jack

Amen, Maybe he's just saying it's not Greyhawk to throw everyone off the scent? Jack

Check out Talislanta. The Orgovians had a weapon called a Star Thrower. Essentially a crossbow but it fired spiked orbs the size of golfballs. Jack

I would also highly recommend seeing Terry Gilliam's Brazil. This will definately give you insight on how to run the mad bureaucracy of Alpha Complex. Beyond that kill the characters as often as you can while making it look like they did it to themselves. Jack P.S. So long as it makes you, as...

Hmmm.... Cyberpunk 203X - rumour was this would make Gencon. Oops. Lots of people have asphixiated holding their breath for this one. The New Mekton - I figure I should see this about the time I have grandchildren. Freedom City 2.0 An edition of Rifts with a ruleset that works - Call me a...

OK, A few people have missed the point. We're looking at sales here so adventures are pretty much right out. We know new settings aren't going to happen even though I agree that a new Greyhawk Campaign Setting book would sell very well. Not just because we grognards would buy it but if done...

Try "Box of Flumph" in Dungeon #118. You can order it at http://paizo.com/dungeon/products/issues/2005/118 Jack

I think an Unearthed Arcana II is inevitable. Jack

White Plume Mountain I say this mostly because it is my favorite adventure of all time but also because it wasn't a traditional adventure. It's probably too traditional dungeon crawl than what you're looking for. However it was really great because of the environments. Combat didn't happen in...

Here's an interesting question, Would Frostburn, Sandstorm, Stormwrack etc. sell more if their contents were added to the SRD? This would allow third parties to produce the support material you suggest is lacking. Jack

Heh, What on earth would you put in it? (Monsters, yes, shut up). Seriously what makes a Fiend Folio different from a Monster Manual? Jack

Hi Folks, This is a spin-off of Psion's "WotC's in a rough patch" thread. What roleplaying products do you think WotC should be producing over the next year or so from a business point of view? Note well that that this doesn't mean what you yourself want them to make nor does it mean 4.0 (not...

Well Psion, Usually you and I think a like. However, I actually liked WoL a lot. It did something for me that I fealt 3.X had been missing and that was that magic items didn't feel "special" anymore. All the items in Weapons of Legacy brought that back for me. Here I could have legendary items...

I have to agree with Psion here. I never owned the original Spycraft but I picked up 2.0 based on all the raves about the previous edition. I haven't managed to read through the entire rulebook yet but my take so far is Advanced D20 Modern. For doing modern agency-based games SC 2.0 wins out...

For the curious, The death ground for Mountain Dew is called the Canadian Border. We have this strange law up here that you can't cafeinate clear drinks (yes I know MD is yellow but the government says otherwise). So for those who'd really like to know what fruity cow urine tastes like, come on...

Well, This is second hand but from a pretty reliable source. Still, take it with a grain of salt. From what I heard the powers that be in Indy were trying to raise thier fees. Old Peter countered by telling them that that was OK as he wasn't certain Indy could handle the convention and that...

I can't speak for the RAW, But I tend to use Wee Jas fairly strongly in my campaigns. One of the conventions I picked up from raiding the net was the idea aof various sects of the faith. The Weetian sect tends toward darker aspects of the Stern Ladie's dominions while the Jassian sect tends to...

Hey, I'm curious about the technique you used to created the marble like effect on the obsidian sword? Jack

Hey There, I'm going to take a guess and say that you basecoat in white. If you want to improve the sense of depth try basecoating with black. Any bright colour areas will need to be painted white first with a heavy drybrushing (what I call a wetbrushing) with good coverage on the top and not...

Woot! It was the only song I could think of that would let me cram lots of people in. And I didn't even use half the names I had written down. Jack
