    What would you have done?

    I've been running a 3.0 FR game now for just over 3 years (the characters are now 13th level), and a year ago I had a situation that really bothered me and nearly broke up a game group that has been strong for over 8 years. I handled it poorly, and it's water under the bridge now, but I wonder...

    What RPG books/manuals do you really regret buying?

    Wow. I don't know if I'm just more forgiving than many of you who are posting in this thread or if I just have really bad taste. If it's the latter then somehow I've managed to get 13 other gamers in my two game groups to join my bad taste club for over 8 years. Creature Collection did had a...

    Scarred Lands Question: Aethis of Vesh

    This text is listed under PEOPLE on page 107 of the hardback Ghelspad book, last paragraph. "Dwarves are most often found in southern Aethis and Dalane. In Dalane, they actually outnumber humans. Though humans rule the province, Dalane is dominated by dwarven interests, but the Dwarves...

    Best RPG Books to Read

    And yet another vote for Planescape. The Midnight books and the Fantasy Flight Legends and Lairs books are enjoyable, the entire Scarred Lands line is filled with wonderful text descriptions and character flavor, The Worlds Largest Dungeon is filled with fun ideas, Shadowrun books are fun to...

    Ratio of Spending to Gaming

    I run two games, each twice a month that average 6 hours per session. So over 6 months thats 144 hours of gaming. I probably average $150.00 in game purchases a month, so over 6 months that is $900. That means I spent about $6.25 an hour gaming in the past six months, or $37.50 a session. Is...

    Ah! Tarrasque!

    Here is what I would do. Contact the two most influential nobles in the land, or depending upon the government other officials. You are going to have gather some intelligence before this, and I strongly suggest involving the most powerful church in the nation as well. The leader and protector...

    Anybody Use just the Core Rulebooks? Why? Why not?

    There seems to be a general flavor to the posts on this thread that suggest that there is something of an advantage or superiority to playing with "Core" material only. I have hundreds of D20 books in my library, many of them purchased specifically for my players (examples: the Fantasy Flight...

    Real Men Don't Play GURPS

    I just made a cheese, spinnich, and garlic quiche today and it's lovely aroma is filling my kitchen and game room. I think I'll serve it on my copies of GURPS 4th Edition and World of Darkness books. Anyone care for a slice?

    Self Bump, not a single person can answer this question? No Scarred Land gurus out there?!?

    Scarred Lands Question: Aethis of Vesh

    I've just purchased all the Scarred Lands books and am reading the material both for enjoyment and familiarization for a campaign. On pg. 107 of Ghelspad, under the "People" header it talks of the Aethis as though it is both a location and a people. I'm unable to locate a mark on the Ghelspad...

    Discontinuity: 3e and D&D

    Akrasia, I apologize for asking an off topic question, but its about your avatar. That face is hauntingly familiar but I just can't place her. Celebrity?

    TPK : And you think you know whose fault it is...

    Over the years I've discovered many things that work to help small groups get along. I don't mean to hijack your threat by explaining them, but rather to demonstrate how I've managed to minimize personality conflicts in the games I run. I started my current primary game club with three of my...

    Is anyone elses tax return going to spur a gaming buying spree?

    I completed my collection of all the new FR books. But as many have said here, I don't need a tax return to spur a game book shopping spree. Just finished picking up all 30 of the Scarred Lands books. Damn well written material.

    Seperate Forum for April Fool's Jokes?

    Thanks for the switch to the different forum. I'm not trying to be a stick in the mud, I just don't know folks here that well and ended up flaming a poor guy over a misunderstanding. And I don't ever flame anyone... (guess I can't say that anymore though).

    Discontinuity: 3e and D&D

    While I realize that I have only been playing this game for slightly over 26 years, and I have something like 28,000+ postes fewer than Crothian, please allow me to add my 2 cents.... Why the heck does it matter??? What difference does it make? If you want to view the game as "fundamentally"...

    I've just been hired by White Wolf!

    Ah, you know it didn't occur to me that this was April Fools day, and it wouldn't have occured to me even it if I had that this was a joke. I was ticked off that someone would attack someone else like that, particuarly in a forum that has always seemed so polite. Ah well, my apologies Patryn if...
