    Sandstorm

    Another bang-up job on listing errata for a book. Thank you! Do you have a website where you store all of these wonderous errata listings?

    gmail?

    Depends on how you do it. If you do a search to bring back all emails that match your filter criteria, hit the 'all' link, add the label - it's not that difficult. biggest problem might be if you're bringing back multiple pages of stuff for the search, and even then that's not too much work.

    Profit warning hits Games Workshop

    I'm not trying to be annoying here - but doesn't that mean that you're pretty not a customer of the company anymore, even though you do play their game? I didn't realize they were public either. Maybe I should see about picking up some shares, too.

    What RPG books are the Gems of your collection?

    The Adventures of Baron Munchausen Unearthed Arcana (for 3.5 - I'm very fond of all the options together) Most of my Call of Cthulhu books, but particulary the Cairo, Masks of Nyarlhotep, the two Gamemaster books, and whichever main volume's at hand. GURPS Illuminati GURPS IOU BESM 2nd edition...

    Hi folks! Been a GM since the 80's - love to join in on the fun.

    What RPG books/manuals do you really regret buying?

    I'll agree with others on Dragonlords of Melnibone - picked it up, tried to like it... set it aside. The original Psionics Handbook was a waste - picked it up, tried to get 'into it', set it aside. I've had a bad taste for Psionics in D&D ever since. Nothing else comes to mind right off...

    Anyone still running a 3.0 game ?

    I'm currently in two 3.0 campaigns, and one 3.5 one. One 3.0 has been in 'Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil' for over a year now (we play about once a month), and if I'd known of the nice 3.5 conversion that had been done, I might have used it. Instead, as late in the game as we are, I'm...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo to publish 2 books

    Wow. I'm going to be looking forward to the Shackled City compilation. It sounds like a great deal on a great deal of fun.

    Dragon magazine 330 April- Far Rælmy goodness

    I was actually rather disappointed with the issue. My wife and I agree that the cover is astonishingly ugly... and considering the Mind Flayer on the cover, why aren't there any in the issue? The look of the 'far realm' article was so off putting I haven't been able to actually read it yet...

    SG-1 First Steps: The Stargate Unexplored Worlds Sourcebook

    Not much of a review... Although I like the Stargate franchise and the rpg myself, this is more of a review (and eulogy) of the system as a whole than a review of the book itself. I would have preferred a more detailed review that said what the good and bad points of the supplement were.

    Girls (Females) in D&D/Roleplaying

    1. How many female roleplayers do you have presently in your campaign(s)? Which campaigns? In my weekly we have 2, in my bi-weekly I have 4, in my other weekly I don't know (anonymous, online), in my other bi-weekly I think we have three, and then in my monthly I only have one. 2...

    Wall of Force and Summon Spells?

    Hi. I had a situation come up the other day involving a wall of force. As you may remember, it says it blocks spells, but what does that mean exactly? I'm sure if I'm casting 'fireball' or 'magic missile', then yes it blocks the spell. But what if the effect of the spell basically starts in...

    Large US Game Conventions

    I suspect some of the decline could be posted to 9/11 - IIRC, GenghisCon 2002 was really hurt by that... not to mention Tacticon 2001. But although there could have been more vendors then, I think we've got some better ones now, especially with all of the companies showing, instead of just...

    Call of Cthulhu d20 Preservation Society

    I have been misunderstood. It is probably my fault. As I understood it, the problem is that they were not sold out. But sales suddenly stopped, because of the announcement. And if you're not able to sell the main book, why are you producing supplements? Coc D20 is hardly sold out - they had...

    Miyazaki's Nausicaa, Porco Rosso, and The Cat Returns on DVD

    When I discovered that the three were out, I rushed over to Best Buy and bought them - for a short while they're selling for only $17.99 there. (Normally $19.99) So far I've only watched 'The Cat Returns', which is a very interesting film. I'd never seen it in Japanese (unlike Laputa, which I...

    Call of Cthulhu d20 Preservation Society

    Well, that was the impression I got from talking to them last week at Genghis Con (Note: I may have misheard - I'm just representing what I thought I heard). In particular, they thought that they had just as much the right to publish a lovecraftean game as anyone else, and that they had created...

    Large US Game Conventions

    I'm quite fond of our local cons, particularly the big one: Genghis Con. It just wrapped up last weekend, and we had several manufacturers at the convention, as well as tons of different rpgs. I believe we had about 1400-1500 attendees this year.

    Is the Illusionist Dead?

    I've been having fun in my home campaign with a multiclass Monk/Illusionist, and it goes nicely. A little displacement on myself for that 50% miss chance, or some invisibility or otherwise... it works nicely. And Phantasmal Killer is an awesome spell - sure, they have to make two saves, but...
