The currents will be what you envisage them to be. That said, the most realistic thing would be to put flotsam around a natural island, too wet to be settled or put it in a natural bay that is silting up. The island is the path of least conflict (unless your world has magic that can make it...

I like your map but current and wind would tear apart flotsam in a week. I think 1 you have to start with the dominant current and build a pattern that will resist it 2 you need regular reinforcements in the pattern to separate the boats and stop them from crushing each other 3 you really...

My guess is that if he was 'working' when he was attacked and then savaged with a spiked whip, and then quickly bundled out the door, he is more likely to have been wearing a bed sheet or curtain than anything else when he had to take the plunge. My guess is if he had any sort of garments he...

I recommend "Reality Deviants" Hobgoblins - Touch of Evil book. Nice write up of their possibility. Honestly, Hobgobs can be really scary powerful. Not so much individually as in their ability to work together and kill with a purpose. If you don't give them a chance to react intelligently to...

Thanks for this. I thought you guys weren't going to get me with your Victorian Line - just too many game systems to actually play. Not anymore. Your whole Imperial Age line and Northern Crown to boot! (Ya know I was always curious) So Step 1 - Thanks, thanks a lot! Step 2 - Read my brains...

How about the 'girls' of a multi race brothel? -- I mean just as an artistic exercise :) Or the line up(s) for a Goblin VS Halfling Baseball game. -sigurd

I'm reading your Fane Trilogy now. Looks good. Gotta love story arcs that begin at level 1! Sigurd

In a New York Minute! Thanks!

4 and a half map styles.... I still don't know how to remove the white spots but at least I think I've figured out how to not create them. This is a new model. Now I have to get the water right and play with the colours on the textures...

Four different maps all done with Photoshop CS2 - Cant afford upgrade :( Which would you like the most as a player or dm? Any constructive criticism (or unmarked bills) gratefully accepted.... Misty Coastline http://wm23.inbox.com/thumbs/b_9fabb_e3bef15b_oJ.jpg.thumb Modernish...

Good on FFG! Rather than being disappointed that GR didn't get it I'm very greatfull the FFG stepped up to the plate! They have made some great books in the past. I'm very curious to see what the do with it and what writers they hire. Sigurd

New spells are an adventure goal New spells should be a goal of every wizard. The 2 spells are sort of what a crappy mediocre wizard will develop\find with a minimum of effort. I would stay away from rules that discourage player-DM role play. My wizards never have any money because they are...

Thanks for the diplomatic overview Grump. Sigurd

Good Drow has a tactically easier but perhaps personally more difficult option. ASK FOR HELP Find some allies and prove their sincerity by including them early. If they are good Drow they are going to want to be seen in their good works to gain trust.

I want an option for... Unconvinced, entirely uncommitted. I'll probably get some 4e soon. Around the time my favourite PDF publishers start producing something independent. If there isn't an an independent publishing wave in 4e, I'll probably stick with 3.5. Sigurd

I think you have to step back from the obvious mechanical steps and look at the demands of setting. 365 tokens make 365 trees - not necessarily a forest. Why don't you build an Alter as the center of a ritual spell. The ritual spell will corrupt\convert the land to a forest fit for drow...

Option 2 I think its sort of encompassed in Option 2. "I've seen some setting stuff for it?" I think most of the people who have heard of it have run into the setting. Fair comment though, might have been a good option. Sigurd

I'm curious to see if Harn has any players on this board.

I like it. I played a Crypt Tracker. My take was that they were trading on their very mortal flesh to combat the undead. He was always cold, damp and miserable. He just hated Undead so much that he accepted it. Patience and huge stoicism got him into Ravenloft where he found a potent weapon...

I have been reading a lot of the Harn Material. I recommend it to anyone. I'm not convinced that I like the game mechanics much but I have decided that the relatively typical low magic setting makes for better stories. Hardships are widespread and not brushed away with a magic swoosh! This...
