    DUNE: questions about a RPG game.

    There is also a d20 version, which is the one that goes for 200bux regularly on eBay. It's bizarre. Sadly, I don't have a copy anymore, twas lost in the Great Flood of '03. -TRRW

    Bo9S

    I've recently began replacing the Alertness feat on all Goblinoid creatures with Martial Study. This has improved their potency a bit, as well as making them much more memorable. No PC has levels in a martial adept class, but not for lack of me trying to persuade them to take levels. :p In...

    Race based off of Hadozee.

    Well, I believe the Hadozee were presented as a PC race in Stormwrack. +2 Dex, -2 Con Medium Gliding Balance and Climb bonuses FC: Rogue That's just a summary from memory. ----- Honest critique of your post below ----- Most races without a level adjustment (and indeed, most non 3.0 races)...

    D&D 4E In terms of theme, tone, and spirit, I hope 4e . . .

    5th level PCs vs 1st level Warriors? Yeah, it's pretty much mooks at that point. -TRRW

    Holy Crap! It's Almost here! I've got to PACK!!

    I think 104F is somewhere between 8C and -12C. I could be wrong, though, as my knowledge of the Moon System comes only from comic books and Canadian cheeseburger wrappers. Woo! Only 4 more days! -TRRW

    D&D 4E In terms of theme, tone, and spirit, I hope 4e . . .

    It was more to the exaggerated stylings that I was referring. I've seen "historically accurate" versions of the battle and they bored me to tears (The 300 Spartans, et al). That's pretty much my view on most historically accurate art, though. -TRRW

    D&D 4E In terms of theme, tone, and spirit, I hope 4e . . .

    I, on the other hand, want my D&D to be like the film 300. We're big damned heroes who only get beaten when we're outnumbered 300,000 to 1. Muscles everywhere and mookishly silly bad guys getting cut into ribbons by the truckload. I want to play Legends of an Age, not Legends of the Hamlet of...

    PC Races with Charisma Bonuses

    Sun Elves (maybe) from Forgotten Realms. I dunno, some kinda FR elf has a +2 Cha, -2 Con. They've got elves for every stat combination in that setting. -TRRW

    Holy Crap! It's Almost here! I've got to PACK!!

    So you'll be taking, what, like 5 pictures with that tiny little card, then? :p White Castle is an American Institution(tm), not unlike the LA/Oakland Raiders. People love to hate on em, but can't deny their greatness at 4am after a long night of drinking. After some research, the closest...

    Building Your Own Droid in SW Saga Edition

    Step 1) List all the things you want your droid to be able to do. Step 2) Out of those, find everything that is a listed component in the Droids section of the book. Step 3) Anything that can't be done is probably a reflavored talent or feat (for example, a web shooting droid would be using a...

    Pre-Gen Con WotC Press Conference

    You take that back. Here in south-eastern Indiana, Sweet-Tea is a familial secret. It's not totally unknown, but good luck finding it at a restaurant. I'll try to talk my girlfriend into whipping up a few mason jars worth to smuggle in for ya. -TRRW

    Yes, it's about two blocks from the main plaza square. South-East, I believe. -TRRW

    Star Wars Saga Edition, My House rules, looking for feedback!

    Having played SWSE since May in a weekly game, I can tell you that Jedi aren't overpowered. We have a Kel'Dor Jedi 7/Force Adept 1, a Trandoshan Soldier 7/Elite Trooper 1, an Ewok Scout 6/Soldier 1/Bounter Hunter 1, and a Duro Noble 7/Crime Lord 1. The Elite Trooper and Bounty Hunter steal the...

    To GenCon? I need advice.

    I have never heard of this Two-Day badge abomination. In fact, I see no such product listing on the registration page: http://www.gencon.com/2007/indy/registration/default.aspx Is this an on-site only badge or something? You're better off buying a 4-day badge, price-wise than two one day...

    WotC Setting Bible

    It's not a what now? Eberron books fly off the shelves 'round here. Sold way better than FR in the time I worked at a game store. The FLGS I go to orders twice as many copies of each Eberron book than they do any other book from WotC, and they still sell them out. *shrug* YMMV, I guess. -TRRW

    Holy Crap! It's Almost here! I've got to PACK!!

    And why aren't they married to gamers? Kids today with their lack of foresight. Anydangway, I'm getting packed as we speak; though I don't have very far to go (the drive's only like an hour and a half from here), I'm still rechecking my car every day. I'm as pumped as punch, assuming that my...

    Star Wars Saga Edition, My House rules, looking for feedback!

    I'm not too terribly fond of your Jedi class changes and changes to Force Sensitivity. I'm not saying they're bad, just not my cup of tea. Also, I'm not too fond of your HP rules (I'm more of a fixed number [either half or full] per level kinda guy), but that's minor. All in all, they seem...
