    Stargate campaign

    If you want to replicate the TV show, start PC's at about 5th level. Especially if you're throwing them up against Jaffa with armor. Combat between low-level PC's and Jaffa is tedious at best, deadly at worst.

    Challenging my high-lvl group (NPCs and monsters; my players shouldn't read this!)

    If there's a war brewing of the real estate of mechanus (and you're willing to play with planar cosmology a little) you could start having the various factions start stealing highly lawful areas from various prime planes to use as a base camp while making inroads into mechanus. A small group...

    Where are your non-MM monsters from?

    Setting specific sources, monsters of Faerun (not counter previously because I don't run the realms), Dragon, The Book of Fiends, and a hell of a lot of Homebrew

    X-PATH 2 : The Forge of F.U. (Completed 15 April 2005)

    Once or twice, yeah. He actually has a surprisingly high Perform (Dither) check.

    Valus d20 setting: ever heard of it?

    I'm one of the folks that went from the Valus discussion when the sourcebook was released, to reading Destan's storyhour. It's still on my to-buy list, once I start back at full-time work next month.

    SYDNEY: FLGS and 2nd Hand or OOP RPG source recommendations?

    I usually check out Goulds when I'm in town (32 King St, Newtown). It's RPG collection is pretty small, but I've found a bunch of old games there in really good condition (I'm an accumulator of out-of-date systems). Of course, if you're looking for something other than gaming books then Goulds...

    Rookie DM and crazy player char monster worries

    Depending on what it is about the doppleganger that appeals to him, it may be worth trying to search out the stats for Shifter race from Eberron (They're the descendents of doppleganger-human unions). It's got much the same style as the doppleganger without the ECL.

    Copperheads: Betrayal and Strange Runes and Burning Dead, oh my (short update 02/12)

    Yep, go ahead. You'll just catch the tail end of what I had planned when I asked for people to send them through (I'll leave it up to others to say whether it was worth it or not) :)

    [Conan] Unchained! - your experiences?

    The continuity in the adventure was all over the place - I never really liked the transfer from the Khan's camp to the evil wizards island. I never ran the game, but I used bits and pieces of it librally in a dozen campaigns. The Manotor, the basic layout and feel of the camp, and the concept...

    Levelling up

    Varies depending on the kind of game I want to run. In my pulpiest, heroic games level advancement just happens at the end of a session (or, in some extremely rare cases, in the middle of a sessoin). It's in keeping with the chaotic, frenetic pace I want the game to have. In other campaigns...

    Favorite Dungeon Modules

    Depths of Rage from #83. Although I can't say I share your opinion of it. It's a great idea, but the execution didn't really work for me.

    Core concept or rule that just bugs you beyond your ability to put up with it?

    The Lost Books Primer contains a few options to get around this, depending on how easy you want to make it in your campaign. And it's a free download.

    Monster reccomendations?

    Bulette - Burrowing makes it difficult for everyone, and the 3.5 leap ability makes for a devestating series of ambushes that can potentially riders and mounts combined.
