    Which of these books are you buying?

    Expanded Psionics Handbook: Probably; decision based on the SRD update. D&D Map Folio I: Nope. Useless to me. Complete Divine: Nope. Not OGC. Eberron Campaign Setting: Nope. Too cheesed. Planar Handbook: Nope. Not OGC. Races of Stone: Nope. Not OGC. D&D Map Folio II: Nope. Useless to me...

    Do you think Eberron will go the way of Ghostwalk?

    Peanut butter, bananas, and mellow-fluff is the only true sandwiche. Everything else is a poor imitation... OMG... I'm sounding like Diaglo...

    [Cosmology] Law vs. Chaos main planar conflict?

    May want to check out some of the Elric books (and, if you can get your hands on it, Chaosium's d20 book Dragonlords of Melniboné) for a classic example of a mythos based on Law vs Chaos (or we can wait for Diaglo to show up so he can tell us all about how Good and Evil weren't part of the...

    Praise for Necromancer Games

    By far my favorite Necromancer product right there... Probably never run it, but lots of interesting encounter set ups along with an incredible critter section. Love it!

    No problem! And welcome to the wonderful world of Open Gaming.

    How do you use pre-made campaign settings?

    Read it for inspiration, strip it for parts...

    Is the Unearthed Arcana SRD online?

    www.opengamingfoundation.org There's about 4+ years of email archives discussing, debating, analyzing, and disecting the topic. Open Content is defined in Section 1D: "Open Game Content" means the game mechanic and includes the methods, procedures, processes and routines to the extent...

    Which Edition Do You Use?

    Unstoppable Hybrid, which is mostly 3.5 minus the few changes I didn't like (i.e., Face instead of Space, Ambidexterity and TWF remain seperate Feats, etc.) plus 3.0 stuff from 3rd Party sources as well as my own creations updated as I saw fit to update them.

    Do you think Eberron will go the way of Ghostwalk?

    With any luck... Unfortunately, Eberron will likely set a new trend for Third Edition: Even more magic with even bigger slices of pungeant, stinky cheese...

    [DM Topic] What is "Lazy DMing"?

    I don't think "winging it" is lazy GMing... Heck, you can prepare all you want, but if the PCs go left instead of right, you'll be wingin' it anyway. As Jericho indicates, though, it's a question of efficiency (and, of course, fairness), as well as the fun-factor for you and the player. And...

    Players choice of magic items

    Group survey says... My group prefers the "always on" items; magic weapons, circlets of mental defense, etc., unless playing spellcasters (and there's only one of them); although herbal healing salves are a common favorite (no divine casters in the group and the psychic's healing ability isn't...

    Is the Unearthed Arcana SRD online?

    I'm not under the impression that Unearthed Arcana is going to be added to the SRD. Unlike the other products that have had material added (MotP, Epic), UA actually has an OGL in it. Also, unlike the Epic and MotP materials which expand the "coverage" of the d20 System, UA is really only...

    Scene setting music?

    Lord of the Rings Soundtracks... Between 3 albums there is a wide variety of musical "mood". Gladiator is simply excellent. Dune (Dave Lynch's version), but avoid Tracks 10 and the last Track (to much Toto comes through...), and Children of Dune (Sci-Fi Channel's version)... Both are...

    When the walls come tumbling down...

    Alright, a combination it's going to be... Primary will be a Global Shifting of Tectonic Plates. This will cause a major world-wide earthquake, with the following effects: Several major population centers will be devestated, including the "target city". Seas will drain and mountains will fall...

    Roleplaying from a character's perspective?

    A friendly bump just before everyone's game time... (Everyone in the Americas, at least, no offense to the other continents...)

    When creating adventures, do you "fudge" the rules?

    Yes and no... That is to say, I will often create rules or adapt rules/items/features from another source in order to provide an encounter or adventure with a unique condition. For instance, I wanted to establish an adventure where a sub-villain (read: occupant of a mountain fortress under...

    How do your Gods get Power?

    I always thought that was a silly question... The egg predates the chicken by several million years (some 200 or so, IIRC). I can see that being the perception, but short of posting the entire mythology of the campaign, it's a little hard to clarify that. To put it into simple terms (for...
