Huh, I know I read another ecology of the stirge much, much later in the magazine's run. Well, I can't be shocked if they re-used some of the popular monsters in some 300+ issues. You should track to see the first time it happens, though.

Wow, Xanth. Man, does that take me back to when I was a fan of the series and not so much embarrassed by it. Was that the first reference so far? I wonder if it wil be the last. Similarly, I noticed that Discworld hasn't entered the magazine's interest yet. Of course, at this point, only...

Phew...FINALLY caught up on my Christmas vacation backlog! Good to see this thread is still going strong. My most pleasant surprise, though, was seeing Snarfquest already. That's my second favorite of the "classic" comics (classic being anything that started before I started my subscription...

Heh, the first ecology article's on the PIERCER? How appropriate that it's the April issue. :) In a way, though, it fits. The first ecology's on the stupidest monster in the game (except for maybe the wolf in sheep's clothing,) and the last is on the Tarrasque. Nice.

Heh, I'm surprised we're not getting more posts chronicling our lives like this. I was born in July 1979, so I'm not that much older guy! I like imagining what I'm doing when an issue came out. Going to preschool and finishing up toilet training, I guess, in this case.

Personally, I'm just amazed Wizardry was THAT old.

Speaking of the senior members, I just now got Luther's last name's reference. So I feel a bit dumb, especially since I even made a character named Asclepius in one of my video game ideas.

You know, at times like this I'm curious about how exactly Belkar pulls this sort of thing off. I know, I know; the stats don't matter. But still. We know his wisdom, intelligence, and charisma are pretty awful (well, I'm not positive about int, but come on.) So his Strength and Constitution...

I have to admit, your constant praise of the Minarian Legends series is making me interested in finding that game some time. If not to play it, at least to study it.

Oh, Dream Park! Finally a book reviewed that I actually read.

In my defense, it was a short sentence. I tried confirming by searching for "what's new," so maybe my inability to find it wasn't my fault? :)

Huh, no What's New? this issue? I'm surprised they missed one so soon. And on an unrelated note...beysycx? Really? That's the worst fantasy realm name I've ever heard. What, was the creator hoping to get an easy out on Scrabble games?

Here's a question. What's Luther up to in all this? Didn't he return to Sandpoint?

I'm almost afraid to ask but...wingfic?

Okay, you have to stop doing that. :) "This issue had an awesome cover. No, you can't see it."

Leadership? How does that factor in mechanically? Does your cohort ever adventure with the group?

I think if the cleric wants to survive this fight, he better get over his policy of not giving his name away, and fast!

Any suggestions on Pathfinderizing psionics? I have the expanded psionic handbook (nothing after that,) and was thinking of playing an elan psion in my next game. Save for dropping the -2 penalty for the race, I'm not sure what changes I can or should make. Obviously, the DM must approve any...

This would be my first Tome of Magic PC, and I'm considering it and (to a lesser degree,) the other two classes introduced in that book. Does that one or the other two come recommended to anyone? Are there any recommendations about what spells (mysteries, whatever,) and feats to focus on? I'm...

So what are the new guys, class-wise? You seem to have formed a really cleric-heavy party. Also, have any of your guys considered getting raised? You're nearing that point where you can afford to, and Pathfinder's much nicer about the consequences compared to 3.5.
