    Mythic India?

    well, multiple arms and faces tend to be limited to gods and really high ranking demons, and Elephant people should actually be person, since there is only one...

    Mythic India?

    well then, i advise you to remember that demons, ghosts, and spirits are all great bad guys, and the government should have administrators, teachers, clerics and mages on top, followed by a strong warrior system in charge, etc. very very stratified society. Your party should be treated by...

    Mythic India?

    Hey look, my favorite topic =) The question i have before i can even start to approach this is what type of game are you running? Is it D&D with dwarves and elves and things, or are you entering 'real' mythic india? Cause there are ways to approach it from either angle. Mindshadows and...

    Ask me about Egyptian Adventures: Hamunaptra

    i've got more of a conceptual question- Why Egypt? and How did you get the opportunity to write this for GR? ( i ask because i love the mythic vistas line, and am always curious on how getting gigs works, as it were)

    International Game Day Was Fun

    Me and my pal RKanodia went to Neutral Ground here in Mountain View/Palo Alto, and had an enjoyable game with a good GM. i'll be honest, i only went for the swag, but it was a good time to be had by all four of us. He started in the premade newbie dungeon, but then slipped us into his own...

    Yeah! I'm in Dragon (again). Want to argue?

    so i went back and looked at all the mystical art people spoke so highly of, ie Erol Otus and friends. Dude, if i saw a book with a cover like that on the shelf today, it would stay there while i found something better to do with my time. It really looks terrible. Like a cartoon a 6th...

    What are the differences between 1e and 2e?

    Dragonlance War of the Lance Discussion, Questions, and Comments

    This book is the single greatest Dragonlance resource ever published, if for no other reason than the eberron inspired geography section, which finally allows the rest of ansalon to shine as brightly as Solace, Palanthas, and Sanction.

    What are the differences between 1e and 2e?

    well, for one, your 1e half-orc barbarian was gonna be in for a world of pain upon conversion... And that 18th level bard you worked so hard on isn't quite the guy you thought he was =)

    Dragonlance

    Gnomes get no respect. They have the potential to be amazing, but authors and designers have pigeonholed them into comic roles only. The Gnomoi Company of the Dead is a great example of how they can be used for cool dramatic effect. The novel _Seige of Mt. Nevermind_ offers a lot more depth...

    Dragonlance

    wow, talk about a loaded statement. For the sake of avoiding a flame war, i'll respectfully point you to Chris Pierson and Mary Herbert as examples of people who 'know what the setting is about and can carry that feel across."

    NFL week 5...upset time!!

    I was at the niners game yesterday, and it was awesome. We were totally gonna leave when the cards got to 28, but that comeback was really exciting. The stadium was practically empty though. I've never really been to a football game before, and it's a totally different experience than...

    Dragonlance

    Taladas is the best dragonlance product ever released. the only thing that even comes close is the new War of the Lance sourcebook, which is excellent in its own right.

    Dragonlance

    The setting is blending the two, and moving on to a totally new story arc, which is kinda like 5.5 age. A lot of the things that were contentious about the fifth age are slowly being phased out, which in itself is causing more contention, but if you've ever harbored the thought of getting back...
