I thought about setting it in Sarlona, especially since Riedra is pretty much the ultimate evil empire. And Secrets of Sarlona was a damn cool book. But I've yet to run anything in Eberron at all, so I wanted to start with the main setting first. Thanks for the idea on the manifest zone! I'd...

Has anyone thought about adapting the Burning Sky campaign to Eberron? With the relase of Forge of War (which I've yet to purchase, unfortunately), it seems like a war-themed campaign could work pretty well during the Last War. My initial thoughts were to substitute Coaltongue's death for the...

The tortle could have grown up in Lyceum, brought there as a child (tortling?) by an explorer wizard who discovered the strange creature on a far-off island. This would give the party a nice connection to the town and a reason to go there after Gate Pass. Edit: couldn't remember the name of the...

I've got Esoterrorists, I might be able to field a few questions. Essentially, major clues are defined as things which lead to the next scene or allow the players to continue to play, not necessarily things which solve the plot. The interpretation of the clues is supposed to be where the...

Let me put it this way... I opened my last campaign by running X3, Castle Amber. I figured it would give the PCs a good idea of things to come. :p

I don't mind Humanity-style limits on cybernetics, but I was never that thrilled with restricting them just to cybernetics. If it's some sort of medical problem, like the viruses you mention, or something where the tech is unreliable, then I can see it as part of the setting. Mechanics wise...

Chicago sounds like an excellent choice for a sourcebook- especially since I already have Chaosium 1920s books for New York, San Francisco, and New Orleans. :p Looking forward to this!

Sounds pretty cool. How much of the period does the book cover? Does it get into WW2 at all?

I second Doug. Nine times out of ten, when a new PC joins the group, there's no reason for the group to take them, other than the magical PC metatag that is floating over their heads. This sort of plant can still work, I think, if you make sure to lay down strict terms with the player who's got...

I've been refreshing pages, loading new browsers, and trying to complete checkout since I got up this morning. No luck at all. :\ Personally, I count myself fortunate that I was actually able to load the books into my cart. Seriously, though, would just putting links to the PDFs on a page...

I would definately keep the order for Eyes Only (I ordered mine as soon as I heard I could). The chapbooks are nigh-impossible to find. However, I don't think the book is going to have and D20 content. As for Delta Green D20, I would only suggest it to people like me who didn't have the...

Slightly OT, but does this book have any info on pre-Mournland Cyre? The info in Five Nations and ECS are both kind of sparse, and I was hoping for some more in depth info...

This whole thread reminds me of the old MST episode with the "sampo". "Gleemax- ask for it by name!" "I think Gleemax can be found in the laughter of a small child." "Well, whatever Gleemax is, gamers want it more than anything- so it must be some kind of facial cream!" etc.

I just subscribed to a service called GameZnFlix which, as you might guess, has both movies and games. The selection of neither is all that great, but their prices start at half what Gamefly wants and they have more shipping centers. I've only gotten two days so far, but I'd say the turnaround...

Hm, I hadn't heard about that. I'll have to do some Googling and see what works and what doesn't. Thanks for the tip!

Given how wiggy some US DVD releases are (see: Twin Peaks, anything from the BBC), I've decided to pick up a region free DVD player and start importing. I've been checking around Amazon and other sites and was considering the Philips DVP5140, but I wanted to post here and see if anyone had any...

Yeah, they say there's a cafe on every corner in Baator...

Try to track down the old, gold-covered D&D Immortals set. It had rules on playing a god and, more importantly, how to become one. In plain D&D there were four different paths to immortality, and as characters raised in level their adventures were supposed to focus more and more on how they...

A group I was in did this for a player a while back. There was a computer with webcam on each end; the larger group had a microphone while the single player used a headset. Software wise, we got best results with MSN chat, which has a video streaming capability. Before that, we'd been using a...

Occasionally magainzes such as The Unspeakable Oath or Black Seal would put out Delta Green material, but those are going to be hard to track down. I think some Unspeakable Oath excerpts are available at the Pagan Publishing site, I don't remember if there's anything DG related or not. That...
