    Tome of Horrors Complete Edition

    The order deadline for a hardcopy book is July 5th, 2011. The PDF will be included (you get a download link which will have the PDF when it ships). The price tag is 89.99$ for the physical book (shipping in the US is 4.00$). It looks like this will be the only print run of the book. (I say...

    Tome of Horrors News--Please Read

    I've ordered my PF version. Thank you ever so much for delaying the cut-off until July 5th. I'd have been a sad panda indeed had I missed this!

    Challenges for a Druid Farmer

    With an estate of that size, may haps his lands actually cross a boundary and straddle two, or more, differing kingdoms. Any differences in taxes, land rights, etc., would then come into play.

    Mearls' Chicken or the Egg: Should Fluff Control Crunch, or the Other Way Around?

    As you note, fluff and mechanics will show up in how the game "feels". To me, with the mechanics being forefront, 4e does not "feel" the same as 3.xe. And 3.xe, with more fluff, "feels" more like what I think of in D & D. And that's entirely subjective. If you go into design mode and say...

    Awesome D20 Lamp my wife found

    Yeah... You'd think I'd learn with as much HGTV as we watch.

    Spontaneous Monster Generation

    It's a neat idea, but as you ask there are a lot of questions that could come up. I think the relevance of the questions would have more to do with your group than anything else. If they are inquisitive and like plumbing the depths of the world behind the dungeons, then yeah, these could be...

    Awesome D20 Lamp my wife found

    Am I completely out of touch, or does it not seem extreme to charge from 400$ (small) to 700$ (large) for that lamp? I mean, sure, it's actually aesthetically pleasing, but there can't be that much material in there. Feh. May haps I'm being too budgetary. 'Tis a nice find!

    Dallas, TX: Game Chest gone from Valley View Mall

    My condolences for your (collective) loss. Loosing a good game store is like loosing a good friend, and these days it seems just as difficult to replace.

    Does the Gamer Seeking Gamer App work for anyone else?

    I just looked at this since I haven't tried it in a while. When using Firefox v3.6, the tables below do render, but the map does not show up. There's simply a large section of nothing between the search box and the tables below. Looking at the source, it looks like there should be a Google...

    Advice for Boosting a FLGS

    I think most things have been covered, but one other bit to mention is keep the shop clean. If the store is run in a professional manner, and the environment is well maintained and clean, people will want to be there. And the longer people are there, the more likely that they will buy...

    5E on the horizon?

    I've noticed that a lot of discussion is based on the fiscal needs of WotC. Rather than come out with 5e in the near term, and since they already own all the bits, there is a much more elegant solution: reprint all the core books from the prior editions. Imagine if you could go out and buy a...

    Disappearing Dice

    I love dice. The last time I was at GenCon I bought one of the pitcher's 'o dice from the Chaosium booth in the dealer's hall. I have dice that I use just as a player (and are not shared), and dice that I use just as a GM. The ones that I use as a GM can also be used by others who may have...
