As the manager of our local comic/game store I've seen the exact opposite. I've seen more sales before/during/after the release of the comic related movie. I'll grant you the sales might not have been sustained but there definitely has been an increase in interest. DC keeps dropped the ball in...

these are the games i own and would recommend based on your criteria. lunch money - fast, brutal, easy to learn card game. cold war cia vs kgb - 2 player only, but fun easy game. i wrote a mini review on it in this board somewhere. nodwick - fantastic easy to learn card game where everyone...

There is also an early Dragon Magazine issue #68 that dealt with Ice Age adventuring.

Monte's Book of Experimental Might w/ some OGL Conan, but chomping at the bit for Fantasy Craft and will more than likely jettison BoXM for it when it hits.

Make that 4 for Ptolus. A well thought out detailed city w/ adventure hooks scattered into a vast majority of descriptions. Underground labyrinth of an old dwarven city, dungeons, crypts. A 3000 foot evil tower in the middle of the city full of more dungeons. A Necropolis full of undead, and...

we got to play with it for a short time, or at least the first half of it when it came out in pdf. my players that used it really liked it, 2 clerics, and a paladin, they enjoyed the disciplines that gave them a little more flexibility with the characters they were running. we switched over to...

So we played our first game last night. We only got through the 1st Age screwed, screwed lots of things up, but it was a learning experience but towards the end we all were starting to get the hang of things. I think the next time we play we'll enjoy it more, but my initial impressions are that...

I picked this up the other day, and will be playing our first game either this coming week or the week after so I don't have any complaints about it or a lot of praise other than it's Conan, and I'm a Conan fanatic so I'm hoping for good things :) Has anyone else picked the game up and if so...

Iron Lords of Jupiter and V for Victory were my two favorites.

I voted no. I played some D20 Modern and while I liked D20 Modern initially and really liked the D20 mini games that were in Dungeon/Polyhedron I had the good fortune to pick up read and play Spycraft and thought why wasn't D20 Modern this good. So I promptly got rid of all the Modern stuff I...

That is exactly what the issue I'm having with them. I put things like that in my game where the wizard could really use knock or shadow bridge for what ever the situation might call for and the current power scheme is lacking in that and which is in turn having us look at the game so we can...

Rituals you either love them or hate them, at least my group seems to and mostly they just hate them, not all of them mind you, but almost all of the 77 10 minute or less rituals (I found 11 that I couldn't see being used in a combat round environment) used to have in combat round applications...

let me know what you think of it when you try it out.

that works just as well, and it's not the one i had come acrosss earlier.... thanks.

I'm looking for a good ritual index, one that is current would be great and in a spreadsheet format. I don't need descriptions, just name, level, source, and maybe time would be good for my purposes. The one in the compendium would be great except you can't easily print it. I seen one that was...

I love my BattleTech as well, but a friend of mine was part of Reaper Minis Black Lightning Demo Teams, and used to host demo games of Reaper's CAV mech game at my store. Great and fast little mech game. Doesn't quite have the same crunch or stuff as BT, but for something fast and fun it would...

I would recommend the assassin base class from the d20 Freeport Companion by Green Ronin. It should fit the bill nicely.

There's been some good suggestions already. I can also recommend Federation Commander as an easy to learn space combat game. I also like the Babylon 5 A Call to Arms box set, no minis just a bunch of cardboard counters. For WWII I like Tide of Iron and it fits as your request for everything...

A smattering of board games in no particular order that I own and our gaming group enjoys. Arkham Horror + expansions Tide of Iron The Great Space Race Robo Rally Sanctuary (based on the Thieves World novels) Kill Dr. Lucky Last Night on Earth + expansion Tomb Tannhauser Same thing for card...

yea i would agree it's not good shadowrun but i like those touchstones that games have, and those seem to be missing in a lot of RPGs now. by touchstone i mean things that when you meet other gamers not from your group and you start talking say Shadowrun (since that's what the thread is about)...
