    "Dawn of the Dead" remake!

    Spoken like a true Pennsylvanian! :D The Creature Corner review was posted in the sci-fi news section, for those who may be interested: http://www.creature-corner.com/reviews/dawnofthedead04.php3 I'll probably go see this. It sounds like it'll be better than the 80s Night remake, which I...

    Military base dungeon crawl: Need help with game idea

    Speaking of the devil... News on the front page says that the Weekend Warriors base map is available as a free download, here: http://www.12tomidnight.com/Menu/downloads.htm I've only looked through it briefly- the package is huge. A lot of the buildings look to be above ground, but could...

    Military base dungeon crawl: Need help with game idea

    1. The military lacks the correct knowledge to deal with the problem, specifically as relates to whatever FX you want to introduce. The PCs are with some sort of group that finds out about the base, suspects what's in it, and send them to finish what the military couldn't. The details will have...

    Undersea Adventure Modules?

    A couple of Penumbra modules could help: Tide of Years has the players trying to save a dying underwater empire (I think it involves time travel or something), while Maiden Voyage is pretty much just that- a first trip out gone horribly wrong. Each one should have a write-up in the reviews...

    Domain registration- DIY, or through web host?

    I'm currently shopping for web hosts and getting ready to set up a few different sites (online resume, a couple of game related pages, etc). I'm also wanting to register some domain names to point to the different sites. My question- am I better off letting the host register the names for me, or...

    Weapons Locker info

    I happened across the Weapons Locker info page and thought I'd post a link here, since I hadn't seen much on the boards about it. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/d20m/881570000 Who's going to be getting this? I'm not all that interested in a firearms book, myself. Unless it's...

    CSI: Waterdeep

    I actually remember seeing this in the FAQ, because similar situations have occurred in my game. The most current FAQ has a question on p. 50 about scy spells detecting people who have polymorphed. The FAQ basically says that scry tunes into a person's identity, not their appearance. Scrying an...

    Can I do with out Cleric Class

    Though it sounds like you've about got things worked out, you may want to go down to your local store and flip through a copy of AEG's "Swashbuckling Adventures". It's got an inquisitor base class like you described, and also an alchemist base class for your science/magic (the other spellcaster...

    Spy music

    If you're thinking of the lobby fight-scene music from the Matrix, that was "Spybreak" by the Proppellerheads. It's on their "Decks, Drums, and Rock n Roll" CD which also happens to have a Bond-theme remix called "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". The CD is quite good. The anime show "Cowboy...

    AIM/AOL Chatroom Game

    So what year are we in now? :p

    AIM/AOL Chatroom Game

    I've about got my character done, a Capasian fighter/swashbuckler. His fencing school sided with the Queen during the civil war and was more or less destroyed; he came to Kroftland with other Capasian refugees. Since then, he's been wandering the countryside as an adventurer and mercenary. I...

    AIM/AOL Chatroom Game

    A few questions on character creation: How should we calculate the ability scores? Should we take the standard starting equipment for seventh level? Are you using prestige classes or any particular sourcebooks?

    AIM/AOL Chatroom Game

    Not sure on class yet. I'll have to take a closer look at the journals and stuff. So far it seems you have a paladin, wizard, and bard, am I correct? Oh, and is this 3.0 or 3.5? As for the world, it's kind of hard to say. The general impression that I got was of active dieties, approaching...

    Wanted: solid info on new WoD

    Record heard. :p Like I said, those were just my initial impressions. I've never been that well-informed on industry happenings, and I could make a career out of missing press releases (if it paid anything, that is). Thanks for the info, everyone!

    Wanted: solid info on new WoD

    Rather than hijack Mouse's much-deserved congratulatory thread, I thought I'd post a new one. Long story short, I'm with a group that's run a WoD LARP for several years now, and we're in the process of changing things around for once the WoD is no more. However, the more time goes by, the more...

    AIM/AOL Chatroom Game

    I've been looking to get into a chat game to get into, and this sounds like something I'd be interested in. Let me know when you get ready to let people in. Also, I'm not on AOL- is there some sort of basic client I can install without having to go through all their registration, and junk mail...

    Oh YES! *geek happy dance*

    I've been told that the Apex brand, which is often found at Wal-Mart, doesn't have the regional encoding. I haven't seen it for myself, though.

    Oh YES! *geek happy dance*

    Sweet. I've only gotten to see one or two Dilbert episodes. You also reminded me to check on one of my other favorites, which is coming out shortly: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00008EY6Q/qid%3D1074019516/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-6647033-1760940 Man, between these two and...

    "Well, that's two hours of my life I'll never get back..."

    New Rose Hotel, with Willem Dafoe & Christopher Walken. Until I saw this, I didn't think an adaptation of a Gibson story could be worse than Johnny Mnemonic. But I was so, so wrong. Someone mentioned The Watcher, which was pretty terrible. Along a similar vein, Strangeland was quite possibly...
