Thanks Gary! Gray Mouser

Hey Coloonel, another question from The Lost Caverns... for ya :) The module contains several new spells that make their appearance in the Demonomicon of Iggwilv, both Clerical and Magic-User spells. As far as I can tell all of these spells made their way into Unearthed Arcana except for the...

Howdy, Colonel. I have a question regarding The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth for you. I know it's been quite some time since you wrote this module but I was hoping you could clarify a few things for me. Booklet #2 contains several new monsters (which later made their way into the MM II), among...

Heh, showing "the better part of valor" to be sure! It always amazes me the number of gamers who haven't learned one of the most basic rules of survival when faced with a tougher opponent: Run away!!! Gray Mouser

Hey Gary, I was just curious about your experience with Illusionist characters (I know you have a Gnome Illusionist/Thief PC). Do you (or any of the players you have DM'ed) have any memorable/unexpected/ingenious uses of illusions? I've always been attracted to Illusionists but have never had a...

OK, Colonel, a statement like that just begs for the question: What have you faced that was tougher than the (in)famous iron golem??? Gray Mouser

Heh, have I mentioned I wish I lived in Wisconsin? ;) Gray Mouser

Heh, my thanks to the Mad Archmage himself :) My attitude was, of course, fostered by doing the very thing I suggested in the first place. Seeing as how your PC's are adventurers it seems they'd be more interested in actually adventuring than sitting around waiting for their wizards...

What's the point of creating a slew of magic items in order to go on a quest in order to find magic items???? I can see scribing a scroll or two or brewing a potion before an unusually tough adventure, but come on people! Gray Mouser

Hey Gary I was recently reading through the Monster Manual and MM II, specifically regarding Demons and Devils. Under the entry for Demons the table lists them as receiving full damage from iron weapons, whereas Devils are immune to such weapons. I've noticed this before, but don't recall having...

Heh, anotehr weapon-type question, Gary. In the original Monster Manual (as well as the FF and MM II) you list the various humanoids as having a specific damage per attack (for example, 1-8 for hobgoblins) "or by weapon." I was wondering if you meant the given die-value for damage as an amount...

Colonel, I was wondering if you could shed some light on exactly what a jedberg axe is. Is it some weapon that takes its name from the Jedburgh area of Scotland or some implement of your own design. Gray Mouser

:) :) :) Gray Mouser

Yeah, but you could argue that those Greyhawk products weren't support so much as the last nail in the coffin of a once-great campaign setting. Gray Mouser

Exactly. One of the great things about Greyhawk is (was) that it had just enough information to make it interesting but was basically left in the hands of the DM and players. It cold actually become your campaign! Gray Mouser

Thanks for the info, Colonel. The new game/setting sounds great! Gray Mouser

Hey Colonel, I was wondering about the setting for the Lejendary AsteRogues RPG. Is earth going to be involved in anyway or is it set "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away"? Gray Mouser

UH, oh! Shades of the mentat from Dune! Darn you, Colonel, just when I thought C&C would be the only new game I would be buying! Gray Mouser

Yikes! Well, at least their priorities are correct ;) Man, I remember having a comic book that had a similar setting waaaaay back when I was a kid. Can't remember the title but it was by Mike Grell (of Warlord fame) and the ships had "solar sales" and the characters had not only lasers but...

:heh: Uh, nope. Ah, from the old "slide down to China" room in Castle Greyhawk, right? I'll tell you, I've already stolen that idea for my main dungeon and am waiting for my PC's to discover it :] That is too bad about the Tennessee group. I think it owuld be great fun to go on a "walking...
