    Chicago Gameday XV is Oct 21st: Planning thread

    Great! Thanks for doing that (now I just hope I can make that date!!!) Though... I'm not so sure its a good thing for us not to have the 'We are locking the door now' time limit. You may have the first Morning session game that runs late till closing time. :)

    Chicago Gameday XV is Oct 21st: Planning thread

    Wohoo! I MUST make the Serenity game this time though the lure of Kobold/Halfling Cooks is hard to pass up. :) rv

    The Joys of Online Play - NO NOT MMORPGS!

    Yeah, I'm using the 4 'I' maps. I had to shrink them down to 800k or so. Actually its not the size in k thats the issue but the size of the image itself that causes a problem. Once I shrunk it down a bit FG handles it with no problem. There is a delay when I first share the map as it has to...

    Which rules do you NOT use?

    Flat Footed. 'Fire and Forget' spell rules. You only have to memorize Magic Missle once and then cast it as many times as you have spells available.

    The Joys of Online Play - NO NOT MMORPGS!

    Smiteworks (the makers of Fantasy Grounds) have said there will be no charge for upgrading to version 2.0 of the software. As a comparision... I have had FG crash on my host side 3 times in the past year. All those were on the same night... I was trying to use Fog of War on a large map (from...

    The Joys of Online Play - NO NOT MMORPGS!

    I'm another Fantasy Grounds user. We've been playing once a week using FG and voice software for about a year now. We usually use Team Speak but have found that Skype has better voice quality but can't use it all the time due to its 5 person at a time limit. We've had no issues due to using...

    From Stone to Steel. WOW!!!!!

    I saw it at Games Plus in Mount Prospect IL at one of the Game Days they host. Maybe 5-6 months ago. Granted it could be gone by now. :) rv

    Mongoose's Runequest, Anyone have it?

    Did they define if they are humanoids cursed to be like ducks or ducks cursed with intelligence and hands? I always liked that line from the old RQ. rv

    Best Value for Money RPG Purchase

    Fantasy Grounds software. It has allowed me to play about 3 times a month for the last year. Without it all my game books would be collecting even more dust. WLD. The game I'm running in FG. Been running it for a year and we are about 1/3 of the way done. Since I didn't even buy it (one of the...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    It wasn't what the Darkness did that throws me, its that they do Darkness but have the Illusion of light. So you think they light up the room but they don't. You think you are able to see things but can't? Maybe I'll just drop that part and go with what you guys are saying... the WLD disco...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Ok, how have people handled the 'lighting effects' in room I34? When the party gets to the room there is blocked text that descibes the room. Including these balls of light that are bouncing around the room. The rest of the text says "The balls of arcane light that illuminate the room are...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Thanks erucsbo! My players had their first game in I last week. When I described the living walls oozing fluids onto the floor there was stunned silence and then "Are you kidding me!?" To my surprise the party kept going though. They fought the small group of Gricks in that collapsed room. The...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    I don't do either and just bump them up 3 levels per region. Except region A where I started them at 2nd level. I suspect this will bite me when they get to spells that cost exp to cast. rv

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Per the book I was reading the rule was, in part, to stop incorpreal creatures from just traveling though the 'earth' willy-nilly. As erucsbo says, medium sized incorpreal creatures can go though doors, thin walls, into creatures larger then themselves and though smaller ones. They can go into...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Ok, this is what I was thinking of: Libris Mortis Page 141 "Any equiment worn or carried byu an incorporeal creature is also incorporeal as long as it remains in the creature's possession. An object that the creature relinquishes loses its incorporeal quality (and the creature loses the ability...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Per www.d20srd.org "An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to...

    Shoot, I meant to check on this last night. Wouldn't any equipment they had on them when they turned incorpreal go with them?
