Every Bad Idea has its Day I would dare to guess that every bad idea that has come out of WOTC has had its roots in WOTC and not with its rather large, well known and much maligned master. Its my understanding that Hasbro doesn't really take any more money out of the % profit and operating...

For My $$ For my money, its the straight classed Barbarian. Human or Dwarf. Toss out all the non-core races and really all the itenerant non-core crapola. Non core stuff is fun and all for some folks but really I guess I'm not one of them. To me choosing a monster race would be cheating...

Mostly Cool Ideas As I mentioned in a different thread. City of Brass is a 450+ page box set that is the last official release in our long standing partnership with White Wolf. Set for Gen Con Release... and yeah I'm waiting on the pre-order for that too. Shouldn't be too long now. Yes 12th...

Whizbang City of Brass is the last slated release through White Wolf and went to the printer early last week. For page counters amongst the hordes it is: Boxed Set 450(or so) pages (Bigger than RAR and bigger than Wilderlands Box page count wise... tho I would say Wilderlands has more "words"...

Jasin you hit the nail on the head there. Most often the campaigns are NOT crafted to account for such changes in the characters as they grow and develop. Many published adventures either take great pains not to address this (DCC's...no thats not a slam on DCC's) They give you the adventure...

Part 3: What to Doobee doo bee do? What can you do to make an enjoyable game of high level play? Its time to engage players in their campaign setting/world/universe. The story gets broader and grander at this point or should. I've felt since my first read thru of 3.0 phb and dmg that a good...

Part 2 5. It takes too long to get high level. Um.. we are talking 3ed D&D right? It may be considered rude to laugh here so I wont, because I don't know what sort of games people play, or the frequency that they play them. Playing regularly (1-2 times a week) we had a party make it to 11th...

The High Level Conundrum I run a pretty high level game, and my characters have piles of high level power and high level loot. I know I've mentioned before that I still have no problem challenging high level characters. (tho my under 100 posts in 5 years means few people recognize me as a...

Respectfully Snipped. I for one Role Play EVERY single indivdual transaction in my encounter laden local Wally World "Discount" store. Gm in my Mind: "After finding an item that was supposedly on sale locked in a "theft protection case" you notice 5 red-jacketed "Senior Sales ASSociates"...

Happens often enough to the group I run for that they refer to them as "Body Bags of Holding". Case

Defied! I'm soo going to run that encounter the weekend after next. The party is a juiced up bunch of selfish 20th+ level characters. It should be fun! I probably have enough painted metal reaper figs to fill the bill too. I go big tho. I have 3 of their fire giants and 3-4 frost giants from...

You Do know... You guys do know that Froggie is Bill Webb the other half of Necromancer Games's brain trust right folks? You know, the guy at Gen Con buying pitchers and chicken wings, and cackling as players get turned to ashes. It never fails to give me a chuckle when I see him post something...

Thats because most setting descriptors are written from a largely neutral good or chaotic good point of view my man! Oldschool D&D assumed that everyone wanted to be good guy hero types. For AD&D by example the ultimate of ultimates was to roll the perfect combo of 3d6 and score a paladin or...

Hey hey. Long time since I've posted here, been a busy slave of the Brazen Throne as it were, yet it still feels like too long. Course as you all probably notice by my slim post count I tend to spend more time busting my butt on products than I do talking about them. COB stuff... Art is being...

I've always been fond of the Hobgoblins riding Dire Boars. An 8-10th level hobgoblin fighter commander on a dire infernal boar makes mince meat out of a lot of parties of up to 11th-12th level with some of his bodyguards being 4th level fighters with composite bows (+2 str bonus) and all the...

A little ;-) Remember though... Most of us at Necro are hobbyists and gamers same as everyone else. I teach, Orcus practices law, Tsathogga engineers, Pat runs a household, Nate is in grad School, Scott does IT stuff and so on and so on. We are totally guilty of geeking out about stuff (like...

I'm happy for the folks who got a deal through Amazon, I really am. We had no way of knowing if Amazon would get copies or not. Amazon did not directly purchase any copies of RA, they were all sold to the normal distributor at the normal distributor rate. In other words the price Amazon is...

And sent. Now back to our regularly scheduled program. Case

At the risk of being overwhelmed by emailings or de-railing the thread any... For the folks who have Bards Gate there is info on the necro mssg boards on how to contact me and get even more supplemental materials if you have the product ID. Go check the threads under BG and you can find the...
