    Playing Apparent Losers

    Journalism student for an All Flesh Must Be Eaten game. Almost everyone else had at least some toughness or survival ability going for them. I had a camera, the Reckless trait/flaw, and a dangerous disconnect with the real world whenever I was behind the camera. Which was most of the game. I...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Sneak Peeks (Old thread)

    So how about that water naga? Coolest naga I've seen in a while. Wonder how its poison rates among the revised toxins in terms of lethality, considering how poison and disease are apparently getting boosted.

    Pathfinder 1E PDF Rules Prices Forked Thread: Pathfinder RPG PDF at $9.99!!!!!

    Oh wow, those Conan books. There's no way I could justify getting the pdf over the print copy at that price.(which is a moot point by now anyway...) I think the pre-3.x D&D pdfs really spoiled me for prices. I just can't imagine spending more than twenty dollars on something that is...

    Return of the Edition War

    I'm long past tired of people trying to get their digs in on each others gaming choices and knowingly stirring the pot. They know who they are. On Topic: Diablo 2 was the superior edition. Diablo 3 is all rainbows and cartoony OH MY GOD IT'S RUINED FOREVER.

    A Hard Question

    Huh! What sorcery is this?

    Pathfinder 1E HP Error? Forked Thread: Pathfinder Sneak Peeks

    Sounds like that "or" got upgraded to "and". Checking the others to see if that holds for all of them. Edit-Gah, just remembered: Humans get +1 skill points every level as well. Valeros has five skills maxed out. Two from the standard Fighter skiill points, one from his INT bonus of +1, one...

    Pathfinder 1E HP Error? Forked Thread: Pathfinder Sneak Peeks

    In the Beta, a character gets either an extra hitpoint or an extra skill point for each level they take in their favored class. I'm fairly certain that made it into the final rules. So just add their level to what they would normally get from their CON, and you get the current totals.

    One Man's Trash is Another Man's Treasure --on 3pp product "glut" 4e / 3e

    This has been my experience as well. I've been cleaning up with all these clearance sales and have come across more gems than I had expected, many of which I had never even heard of. I'd rather have an industry where Hamunaptra or Fantasy Bestiary can see print than one where they can't.

    What's Mystara's Hook?

    Those settings allowed for a great number of things, but they still had more internal logic than Mystara, Eberron even moreso. Mystara took it Beyond The Impossible. You had Spanish elves, an albino werewolf king who wears his sunglasses at night, Jello warforged, magocracy Venice, Hollow...

    What's Mystara's Hook?

    I don't get the "no hook" statement either. "Anything goes" is one hell of a hook for a lot of people, and I know that's what set it apart from the other campaign settings for me. Trivia: It was also the only D&D setting to get two arcade games.

    Planescape modules - which are any good?

    I didn't even know The Vecna, The touched on Planescape until 3E rolled around. One bullet dodged, I suppose. I've got a soft spot for Harbinger House, and one of the aftermath possibilities wound up permanently in my homebrew. I wish I had been able to run Hellbound and the Modron March...

    In Praise of Stuff that Doesn't Get Praised Enough

    Even-handed folks who realize the difference between their tastes and objective quality. Tony DiTerlizzi. I miss him. A lot. Hell, all RPG artists in general, whether I like their styles or not. I appreciate every one of them for giving people who are looking for inspiration what they're...

    Emerald Sword Saga in FR. How?

    Oh God. In all seriousness, I think the single most important thing you're going to need is for every player to be a Large Ham. No silent gamers lurking in the background in that campaign. Heck, recommend that they try to turn a phrase improperly or even throw in a complete non-sequitor once...

    Best 3.5 Adventure Path to convert to 4e?

    Council of Thieves won't be hitting until around August. All we really know for sure is that it's set in Cheliax(nation ruled by a regime of devil-worshippers) and that it's an urban campaign that will stay in or around its city for the entirety of the AP. Legacy of Fire has two more...

    Evony Ad

    Good gravy I hate that ad. It's hard not to feel awkward when people see "RACE WAR" advertised on your monitor. And sword guy is still doing it! :erm: :eek: EDIT-Huh. What a difference a weekend makes. Last week. This week.

    Goodman Games 3.5 Revival

    They've also published adventures by Doug "Doug Doug" Douglason.(NSFW) I know I certainly did. I went from owning 10 Goodman items to almost their entire inventory of d20 products in the course of one night. I'm probably not even ever going to run Broncosaurus Rex, but I couldn't stop...
