was inflicting subdual damage (hilt of the sword, gauntlet to the side of the head etc) somehow not an option? In my campaign, the party ran into a situation similar to this (a commoner was drunk and assaulting a female kender, and the paladin took him out), and i responded by forcing a light...

eva is great if you like religious psychology and judeo-christian mysticism. or at least, i liked it for those reasons =) the mechs i could do without, though. not a mecha fan, me.

i'm still holding out hope that the last episode will show that one vial of the virus is released in CTU, modified to only affect Chloe. She's seriously the most annoying person on that show, and every episode i am dissapointed that she managed to live another hour =)

ahh. ok, i can see the appeal for old timers then =)

i don't get it. whats so special about this issue? one module and an article from gary?

for a while, Dragonlance fifth age used the woefully ignored SAGA system, which used a cool card based system well suited for the storytelling style of DL.

well, my roommates and i use the miniatures side of the book on a daily basis, but i havent bothered with any of the rpg stuff yet.

I just saw it (free preview), and i'm gonna go back and see it again for real tomorrow =) damned good movie, worthy in all regards.

heh. i always thought rakshasas were cool, but then again, i'm an indian, and any reference to my culture in D&D is exciting =)

what kinds of categories are those? who plays games by mail these days, anyway? and historical minis? i think these awards need to update a bit.

dude, Insurance company of elemental evil. run by mind flayer lawyers and Zuggetmoy's door-to-door salesmen. Buy a claim, or watch your house get swept away by elemental floods, or burned, or earthquaked, or tornadoe'd =)

As a linguist, allow me to say that Hell yes, language matters in my game =)

god, i spend at least 10 times as much on minis as i do on wotc books. last year i bought the Dragonlance campaign setting, the mini handbook, complete warrior, draconomicon, vile darkness, and the 3.5 stuff. this upcoming year, i only see myself getting the other three completes, and maybe...

railroading is the derogatory way of defining second edition gaming. aka, you have a plot, and you want your players to do it, so most of what they do funnels into this plot, and if they're sidetracked, you gently (or forcibly, as it were) nudge them back to your main plot. First edition, otoh...

the novels and the modules came out roughly simultaniously. the first arc dictated book 1, but the second and third arcs were more based on the novel than the other way around. If your players have no idea, its not a big deal, but as a DM i hate running the war of the lance for folks who don't...

new games always start up in the fall, and there are always spaces for new players =)

i dunno, i'd replace sam-I-be with Sam Gamgee =)

thanks!

heya folks. scanning the forum shows me that there are a ton of map threads filled with all sorts of cool dungeons and stuff. Anyone know if one of them has a manor where a rich person might live, with perhaps a dungeon/prison area where he'd store people who arent in favor with him? I have...

frankly i adored the movie, but for completely different reasons than virtually everyone else. as a linguaphile, hearing spoken dialog in latin and aramaic filled me with such glee that i actually sat and watched the whole film twice, once with a notebook in hand to take down cool phrases...
