Because Paizo can direct you back to the original source if you want more information on the content of the stat block, d20 Publisher's can't (unless they get permission from the original publisher). The OGL wont do it, because it's viral by nature - I can use one concept from the Complete Book...

I want to say no, really I do, but I suspect that'd just be me lying to myself. DnD is the only RPG I've used to run more than one campaign over the last twenty years (and I've only really run campaigns longer than six months in about four systems overall).

I like seeing fiction in Dragon, I've just rarely enjoyed the inclusion of Game Fiction in Dragon. I'd gladly welcome back stories along the lines of the Fool Wolf series or Ben Bova's Orion stories, both of which have given me ideas for new adventures or campaigns in the past. DnD fiction...

Most of the major PDF sites have electronic copies of the 1e/2e/ODnD rules. While I'm not sure if the enworld store is carrying them at present, I do know there's a fair range of books on RPGNow and Paizo.com

Jeez, how do your players get to dual-wield monkey-gripped greatswords then? Like most folks, I tend to focus on what's on the sheet, but I have an ambivalent relationship with encumberance. So many magic items exist just to bypass the rules (bags of holding, hewards handy haversack, portable...

The Big Weekend 2004, Brisbane's only local con at the time. Apart from a fleeting introduction to the woman who is now my fiance, I largely remember being enormously frustrated with the games during the first day and a half. It wasn't really until the final session on day two, when I was sleep...

Nope, never. I doubt I'm getting there in the foreseeable future either.

I'm about fifty-fifty between games simply running out of steam and campaigns that end with a big flourish. I don't normally mind either ending - running out of steam is usually a sign that no-one's having fun or these a major problem within the group, so I'm happy to shift onto something new...

3e got rid of Electrum peices?

The World Builders Guidebook. Easily one of the best 2e supplements I've ever come accross on putting together a campaign world, with so little rules content that I'm still using it as the basis for new worlds today.

A combination of ODnD's War Machine and a bunch of hand-waving.

CGW – Where We’re At If you’re reading this, it is possible that you’re one of the people that have noticed that the Clockwork Golem Workshop has been very quiet of late. We went from putting together a lot of products to virtually nothing in the space of a few short months. While there are a...

I think it would depend on the game and the group. I'm not big on the idea of ripping up the sheet of a dead PC, but if it's an established "in-joke" that's developed over time in the group I'd probably just go with the flow. If it's the DM doing it for reasons that I can't fathom, I'd probably...

- An academic or psychologist that does consulting work with the police department. Maybe a profiler. This gives them someone to bounce ideas off and work out how to seperate the improbably from the utterly illogical (and therefore supernatural). - The owner of a local occult store. While this...

I tend to the usual array of Player's Handbook races in my games, although there's one player who tends to play gnolls and kobolds whenever we're willing to let him do so. I tend to think that the non-human races are only as exotic as you (and the players) are willing to make them. AE...

That would be the one, thanks.

I'm in the process of moving house, so my access to books is currently hindered by a mountain of unpacked boxes. Since an hour of searchings has failed to unearth the relevant book, and the folks I'd ordinarily e-mail in this situation are galavanting around Europe this week: What level is the...

I've run a game that hit 19th level once. The next two campaigns both either ended badly or got put on hiatus around 8th level. I had a couple of games that simply didn't make it past 2nd level due to lack of interest. The current group is sitting at 9th level, with folks just starting to edge...

I'll put DMNPC's in for story purposes, or when players request them by hiring them for specific roles or taking the Leadership feat. I usually aim to keep them 2-3 levels below the average party level and make sure they can't do anything that overshadow one of the Schticks belonging to the main...

I've never had a problem with Milsims, but my interaction with them has primarily been via e-mail and online booking forms. Very rarely have I had any reason to speak to them in person. These days I primarily order through them because of the lack of human interaction. Most of the game stores...
