    Firearms Preview

    I like the preview. There are some definite plusses to having a gun, without overshadowing other weapons. Basically shoot 'em then draw your real weapon. Good job of balancing.

    D&D 4E Do you mix'n'match Essentials with standard 4e?

    In the game I'm currently playing in we have a Swordmage, a Wizard, a Thief, and a Warlord/Ranger Hybrid. We also had a Warpriest though the player had to drop out for personal reasons. I have not seen any compatability problems.

    Flattening & Simplifying Defences

    I could see rolling reflex into AC, but I think fortitude and will still have a use. Reflex is definitely redundant.

    D&D 4E The "We Can't Roleplay" in 4E Argument

    First a qualifier: I love 4th edition. It is currently my game of choice. I have tons of fun with it. However... One of the things that I don't like about 4th edition is the extremely light skill system. The skills are combat oriented, even the knowledge skills. I liked the non combat...

    Review of Break & Enter: Stealth Encounters by Emerald Press

    Thanks for the review. and I'm sure Emerald Press thanks you too. ;) Based on your review I bought the pdf and it reeks of awesomeness. If I can get my DM to use this it will change how we do certain encounters in the future. Can't wait for the next two!

    Your gaming experience...

    1. How long have you been playing RPGs? Since November of 1978. I remember this because it was close to my birthday. (Guess what I asked for?) 2. What systems, editions, and different campaigns did you play in? Wow. Lets just do the highlights: AD&D 1e AD&D 2e D&D 3e AD&D 4e Champions (The...

    Treasure in adventure paths

    I like it. It's similar to the d20 modern version of how wealth was handled.(If I remember correctly. It's been a while.) I like the fact that it changes the focus to adventure, duty and heroics rather than simply accumulating gold and toys. Though there is still that element too, it seems more...

    Good players, bad schedules

    Actually, in my case at least, its not my wife that tells me I can't play on weekends. It's my choice not to do so. We have soooo much going on during the weekend (much like Umbran says) that we can't do during the weeknights. My gaming group are not the only people I hang with in my life. I...

    Virtual Rubbernecking

    All the time. I like to see who crossed the line. It's like watching an accident. It's disturbing, but at the same time you can't stop looking.

    XP Levels Revealed!

    I like the new level titles. Brings back memories. I guess we're been to civil. I agree with Dice4Hire, Lets start an edition war. :p I guess WotBS, Zeitgeist, and Santiago aren't enough to keep Morrus and the other admins and mods busy. Ok here goes *ahem*: 4th edition rocks! All other game...

    4 Hours w/ RSD: Realtime

    I agree. I once had a Dm who liked to end every game (if possible) with a cliffhanger. Once in a while he stretched things a little too much, but for the most part it had us talking about it until next game, where we were anxious and ready to go. ;)

    [REDACTED]

    I think the moderators do a good job in a difficult situation. Moderation can be very subjective sometimes, but the mods here (IMHO) seem pretty consistant. And while I've seen the +5 ban hammer wielded with authority on this site, it seems to be the last resort rather than the first (as I've...

    Player's Primer Preview

    I think I really like the feel of this setting. This intro is a great teaser. It draws you in and makes you want more.

    Best Gaming Blogs

    Probably my two favorites would be Ctitical_Hits and Greywulfs_Lair . They're just very insiteful and just plain helpful. And they write in a way that is entertaining. I've seen some blogs that put me to sleep. :p

    Comics Gone Wild?

    It was a dinosaur. It served it's purpose once upon a time, but no one paid attention to it anymore. And if I remeber correctly, the publishers actually had to pay a fee to have that little stamp on the cover.

    I Want More Nentir Vale!

    What I think would be cool is if some creative person would compile the currently known information into an article (or series of articles) so that we have a coherant reference. This would still leave room for exploration and homebrew development while giving us a cool setting. A timeline would...

    Awful Green Things from Outer Space is back!

    According to wikipedia he did quite a few games for Dragon. But best of all he drew the original beholder for the 1e AD&D monster manual! Tom Wham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
