    Conan 2nd Edition

    Well, he's listed under "Additional Text" and "Playtester" in the 2nd edition. But again, not having the 1st edition (either printing) I can't really say if that's a major change.

    What Kind of D&D Character Would You Be?

    Maybe we can start a party of losers? Sounds like you could use a Chaotic Neutral Bard/Wizard (2nd/2nd Level) with a Charisma of 10. ;)

    Favorite 3.5 book

    I hate to sound like a broken record here, but Unearthed Arcana. It's the best thing that ever happened to 3.0/3.5e.

    Conan 2nd Edition

    I like B&W for Conan, honestly. All of the DelRey/Ballantine Books collections of Conan stories feature B&W interior art and that never bothered me. Heck, I tend to see Hyborea in shades of grey/sepia tones anyway. Conan just never screamed "color" to me. Especially as making 2nd edition color...

    What's wrong with Mini-Centric?

    Cost, limited use and the "never-enough" factor are the main issues for me regarding minis. When it comes down to either buying a new book or buying a handful of random miniatures (or paying more for individual minis via eBay or what have you) I always go with the books. I simply can't afford...

    Conan 2nd Edition

    I never owned the 1st edition, but I've heard the horror stories. From what I've read so far I think the folks at Mongoose have learned from their mistakes. I haven't seen any errors that stand out so far, but I've really only read through about a third of the book. If there's anything to be...

    Chaotic Neutral Human Bard/Wizard (2nd/2nd Level) Ability Scores: Strength- 11 Dexterity- 12 Constitution- 11 Intelligence- 13 Wisdom- 13 Charisma- 10 I'm glad my life isn't a D&D game or I'd be dead already...

    Advice on what Kingdom of Kalamar setting material to pick up

    Quite welcome. I only wish I'd come onboard earlier. Ach! Well, I'm glad to hear the sale will be around for a little while longer, at least. I really want that Player's Guide (as I'll probably need it to convince my players to give Kalamar its fair shake), but I may have to put it off to take...

    D&D 4E Merric's thoughts on 4e

    Exactly four minutes later Shroomy scoops the article's release...and it really is the best of Dragon #360 so far! First time I've ever quoted myself... :uhoh:

    D&D 4E Merric's thoughts on 4e

    Great post, Merric. I found myself nodding my head at nearly every point you brought up. I do disagree on the usefulness of affiliations in 3.0/3.5e, but that's really just a matter of gaming style and personal preference. The only other difference I have would be the releases for the online...

    How Would 3.75 Impact Your 4.0 Decision

    I have no intention of buying 4e based on what I know so far. I would buy 3.75e if it was done well and by the right people.

    Fiction in Dragon?

    I never cared for fiction in Dragon magazine. Most of it gave me little incentive to even bother reading it. Of what I did read much of it seemed pointless and unrewarding. I can only think back and remember two or three stories that really grabbed me. The vast majority just seemed like a waste...

    Conan 2nd Edition

    Finally got my copy of Conan 2nd edition. The binding in my book seems fine, but I can see why the problems might arise. This is not a book that opens flat. Because of the ornate border the writing near the spine of the book is somewhat difficult to read. It's not impossible, but it would make...

    Lulu hardcover paper weight question.

    I'm dredging this up because I'm considering making a purchase through Lulu in the near future for the hardcover version of the Kingdom of Kalamar: Player's Guide to the Sovereign Lands. Just wondering if the issue of lightweight paper in the hardcover books was every resolved for you...

    Advice on what Kingdom of Kalamar setting material to pick up

    Impressions of Kalamar; Question about Player's Guide to the Sovereign Lands Wow. I got my Kingdom of Kalamar books in a few days ago and despite a busy weekend I've had time to browse through most of them. Let me take this opportunity to apologize to Kenzer & Co. for not supporting this line...
