I'd be quite interested, and being in Guelph, only a little over an hour from London, that'd have my vote. On a semi-off-topic note, I grew up in London, and I'm wondering which are the three gaming stores there? It's been about 15 years since I went hunting for gaming books there, and I'm...

In a game I play in, we had a mass combat such as you describe last week. It was the 6 or so PCs of about 6-7th level against about 10 goat-men (don't ask), 20 gnolls, 15 human warriors, a winged elven archer, a couple of Gnoll heroes, 6 scorpion-dogs, and a wizard. I'm probably missing some...

Note: None of the Feat requirements for the Forsaker are fighter bonus feats. The earliest you can qualify is as a 3rd level Human or a 6th level anything else. This may throw your math off. --Seule

I'm running an off-the-cuff game with an Ogre-Mage, and Ogre, a Medusa, a Raksasha, and a Treant. They are on their way through the Dungeon Magazine Adventure Path, but have only reached 2nd level. So far none of them seem unbalanced. --Seule

I don't swear, ever. Not only does it keep me out of trouble with parents of various kids, but it also means that if I ever become extremely annoyed, I can swear and it's really satisfying. Nothing like the shock value, when most of my friends have never heard me swear. In highschool, one...

The regional is, in my opinion, the best reason to play the game. For example, the region I am in, Ket, is loosely based on ancient Persia. You find a lot of Humans and Dwarves and a few Halflings, and nobody but the Dwarves wears heavy armour. Clerics tend to be of Al'Akbar, and the culture...

Monks, in my experience playing one to 7th level and playing with another to 18th, benefit from three things: Being an Elf, and having a Druid in the party, and having a Rogue in the party. The Elf race is tailor made for Monks, with high Dex and medium size maximizing the benefits of dex...

Both. --Seule

My prime advice: Find out everything you can about your region (the Yeomanry for you). I come from Ket, and it's a pretty different region from most, so the actual race/class info I could give you would be all wrong. There is no doubt a yahoogroup for the Yeomanry, get on it and ask there...

The only problem with the old HP laserjet printers is that there are no XP drivers for anything Laserjet III or older. I have a LJ4 at home, and am very happy with it. Old laser printers (particularly HPs from what I've seen) will work forever, at a tiny cost per page. Inkjet printers can be...

Slight correction: In Spycraft, you stop being flat-footed when your initiative comes up, or when you are successfully attacked. This new Whack feat would therefore be useful.

I'm going with my wife. How do I identify myself as an ENWorld reader in case anyone cares? --Seule

I easily qualify as one of the peasants. I spend more time listening than talking, I'm usually somewhere around, but rarely does anyone actually notice me. I've got my own little carpentry shop where I make furniture and implements, not of particularly good quality but cheap. --Seule

I just started playing Sergei "Rims" Korsakov in a Spycraft game. In a D&D game I play in, there's General Electric and the Lamps of Pelor: Four knights named Sir Kull, Sir Loin, Sir Cumference and Sir Prise. Their four squires are named Flint, Steel, Wick and Tallow, for without them the...

Game I run (on hiatus): 21st (from 1st) Game I run (current): 7th (from 1st) (see storyhour link) Game I played in (ended): 17th (from 1st) Game I play in: 6th (from 3rd) Game I play in: 20th (from 1st) Game I run (about to start): 1st (duh) I think that's it. --Seule

Just give them the Arcane Spell Failure on their divine spells for all metal armor worn. Fixes the problem. --Seule

It all depends on the character and the party composition. A character heavily specialized on one stat (say a wizard) can afford to sacrifice the other stats for power if the party is large enough to protect him. A Paladin can't really afford to specialize, as they need to be good at 4 of the...

I'm LG, and famous for it among my friends. I don't even jaywalk without a good reason. --Seule
