    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    George's Children I apologize for the interruption. I release this belongs in press releases, but I thought some of my WLD friends might want to read about this. http://georgeschildren.blogspot.com/ On a related note, I can never get the hyperlinks to work on here.

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    These are always my favorite posts.... trading out stuff for the rooms. There are over 1,600 locations. Plenty of room for changes. Twofalls did that entire post a long time ago about Region A and changing Longtail into a chain demon, I think.

    now that's a great way to impact PCs who don't recon before the fight :) at the TOP of REGION L, there's an anit-magic ward (dead center). i recommend adding a source of light there. (don't have the Encounter # handy)

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    That's what the advice is for... how to INCREASE the difficulty. But, I'm glad it was at least fun, if it sadly wasn't challenging. EDIT: These sorts of posts are most useful to new DMs, I think. You've already run it and perhaps someone can go into Region K knowing that Thorodin isn't a tough...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Region K is one of my favorite in the book. Patrick did an amazing job with it. I was very impressed when it was done. As always, things like lighting slipped through the cracks (no pun intended), but the intention was for the ceiling to be very high. An unnatural permanent shadowy light...

    If IKEA Made a Dedicated Gaming Table, Would You Buy It?

    Speaking of niches When I was at AEG, we had this table. http://www.worldslargestdungeon.com/pictures/wld_002.jpg It was the old WOTC table from their giant Seattle store. Round, plexi-glass top, room for 700 (or closer to 8). A DM chair with giant arms on each side. No drawers, but plenty...

    thanks, kafka... can i call you kafka? i wasn't posting to beg for praise... although i appreciate your kind words if i feel anything, it's pride over finishing an 840-page book in under 1 year. that in and of itself is beyond measure. i had a conversation on story-games.com recently about...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    hmm... i've done this several times before, but let me think on this perhaps, PCs start in H (PCs fall six miles and somehow survive... who knows) or the center of E... that could be awesome... waking up in E... or the maze of F after that they learn (somehow) of three great evils... the...

    ah. hussar. how you vex me. but seriously, map b was an absolute MESS when i got it from the writer. i won't go into it here, but the material was four months late on top of everything else. i've avoided on EVERY FRONT avoiding speaking negatively of anyone's efforts on this book. but region b...

    Interesting trend in comics (OOTS, etc.)

    i am well aware of my tendency to write terse, matter of fact paragraphs. followed by a carriage return instead of a period that's how i write. it's an effective tool for emphasis. however, the ellipses are purposely ironically

    Interesting trend in comics (OOTS, etc.)

    I recognize that I'm alone on this (or at least in the minority), but I don't say the word -- like -- for emphasis... or as a gap in my... like... thinking. I realize it's a trend about Gen-Y (yadda, yadda) and despite growing up in Southern California where "like" made it's earliest...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    the players aren't supposed to use the truesilver... the bad guys believe they can control the devils in the tomb if they extract enough of it as soon as a PC touches it, it becomes inert it's something from my home campaign that i snuck into the book... if you don't like it... ignore it...
