    You missed my note about Psion's T20 game then as you were indeed mentioned. :) Jack

    How do I love GenCon? Let me count the ways!

    Well, I'm not as die hard as those who've posted their comments above as I thought I'd get a good night's rest before posting. But now that I have I just wanted to post some of my highlights: The Canadiana Suite: I want to give a big thank you to Dextra and Hellhound for hosting this. Above...

    Iron Heroes meets Eberron

    Ya, I don't think you're going to have a chocolate and peanut butter combination here. More likely something akin to chocolate and motor oil. If you really have your heart set on it I would suggest you use the conversion to D&D rules at the back of the book. That should go a long way in...

    Arthaus reverts rights to Ravenloft and Gamma World back to Wotc

    Well, This is hardly surprising. I can't speak for Ravenloft but Gamma World was obviously a dismall failure. That the rights would be allowed to revert to WotC is just a natural conclusion. As has been noted previously Darwin's World 2 just totally blew D20 GW out of the water. When I read GW...

    What monster killed your first PC?

    I hate Chaotic Neutral

    Well, You can try a little experiment. Don't let the players pick their alignments. Observe their actions throughout the first adventure and then assign an alignment to them that best suits the way the character acted. You can take this even further and not tell the players what you decided. If...

    Eberron - things to watch out for?

    Master all the special combat actions. They happen a LOT more often in Eberron. Bull rushes in particular and not just in Sharn. I've bull rushed people off bridges, moving carriages, flying airships, and even seaside quays. The pulp action nature of Eberron makes taking these actions much more...

    ENnies for miniatures?

    I think this will be a giant can of worms given the restriction you have to dance around. For example take Rackham, they will be releasing miniatures to support their upcoming Cadwallen RPG. Do doubt these miniatures, while released for the rpg, will also have stat cards for Confrontation (and...

    Tomorrow Knights RPG

    Hee hee, I just want to throw a plug in here for the new Tomorrow Knights RPG (http://www.spectrum-games.com/tk/index.html) I was exstatic when I saw this was coming out because I thought I was the only person to read this comic during its brief run. I think I still have all the issues tucked...

    Superhero games...

    Rated from most favorite to least favorite: Mutants and Masterminds - Great support, fast play and all the elements. Silver Age Sentinels - Almost as good as M&M but the support isn't as robust. Champions - Great character creation but combats take much too long. Living Legends - Haven't...

    Favorite 1st level module?

    Ne'Moran's Vault Hands down. Has nothing to do with the fact a good friend of mine wrote it either. Really. It doesn't. Jack

    Let's run a module: The Whispering Cairns (spoiler discussion)

    Well, I'll be running this adventure in about a year's time. :) I've only just gotten my party through the halfway point (Test of the Smoking Eye) in the Shackled City campaign and it's taken a full year to do that. Jack P.S. This is not to say I'm not really jonesing to do Age of Wurms.

    Shackled City: In My Hands

    Big NO, There is very little plane hopping but there is a planar related BBEG. Most of the story is centred around the local BBEG lieutenants and the like and you don't even deal directly with them until after halfway through the campaign. SC is definately mainline D&D. The great thing about it...

    The World is coming to an end - help me make it happen.

    Sheesh... You people think so small. There's only one answer to this... Nerull. No ones better at mass doom than the god of death himself. Besides you can get some use out of Dieties and Demigods. Jack
