I would suggest going to Beltway Liquers on Loch Raven Blvd (just off the exit from 695). They have a huge selection (it's the size of a normal supermarket) and typically have a free wine/spirits guide at the doorway that will give you ratings from various magazines which may lead you to a good...

Done right is strictly persepective, but I get what you're aiming at. I see Post Apoc as being depressing and amazing all at the same time. Everything is new again, so every corner is a new adventure. However, it's all over the bones of the old, which is sad. A very strange balance. I'm a huge...

I picked up the 20 Players Handbook for a few reasons: - I miss the original Gamma World. - I'm a big fan of post apoc. type genres. This includes, in my mind, Cyberpunk 2020. - I'm a huge fan of Fallout and this is the closest thing to a polished project that can be used for Fallout-esque...

My bookmark to Enworld takes me right to the Control Panel for my log-on. At the top of my subscribed threads, it shows which ones have new posts since last I came in. The thread name column and the Last Post made by column are switched in their "how much width they take up of the screen...

I've ran a number of games where all of the players were ladies (max of 6 at the table at once). I was the only man for miles, as the GM. Crazy stuff. I know my wife alone is probably one of the bloodiest, violent gamers I've seen sometimes. :) She has made characters that are nothing but a...

Not true... I would like to call my first witness to the stand in defense of this statement: http://www.roleplayingtips.com/ I have subscribed to this newsletter for many years. It almost always has a good article or two, plus (as the title mentions) a good number of tips and handy advice for...

How does this stack up to the bundled speaking tools in the Microsoft Office Suite? I assume it is better, but if anyone has tried both and has an opinion, I'd be very interested.

I kid, I kid... Yea, but being over the internet keeps the crazy gamers who don't bathe from knowing where you live! ;)

Tongue firmly planted in cheek here I prefer the Tentamort. Check it out in the original Fiend Folio. That monster is simply made to kill PCs. No other reason. If sucking softened PC innards through a 12" bone needle is not the coolest, I don't know what is!

I have a related question to this as well: I started learning C# and ASP.NET lately, and PHP is a great way to compliment that in my opinion (marketability AND covering the commonly used bases on the net). To that end, I picked up this PHP Pocket Reference. It's from O'Reilly, which I...

I dig it. You're going to get a lot of different opinions on what you need and don't need from that list from anyone who posts here. Some groups micromanage and like working economies, however many do not and every store has what is in the PHB. There is nothing wrong with that, but you have to...

Speaking of getting on hot streaks... Old One tends to do that to us in his Fading Glory campaign. He drops his dice in view for combat, and I have seen multiple crits or at least always above 16. :\ The ability for the players to roll fumbles at any save or skill check known to man is...

Exactly. The process of stating and equipping every NPC you make would be a headache and VERY time consuming, even with a stat generator... and I assure you that once you do all of that ahead of time, less than 5% of those NPC will EVER be encountered or sought out by the players... they will...

Nice setup for a travel capable. This is something I've been working towards myself. Right now I have a huge train layout table I got for 10 bucks that can seat 10 around it pretty easily if need be. I installed a surround sound system (5.1) around the table. Hooking that up to a sound blaster...

Important NPCs, equipment shops, local authorities, and other people in the world are all NPCs that I make index cards for and pull when I need them. When I start out, I make up a quick blurb to have pre-generated starting points for various people/professions that the players may run in to...

The extra stuff will become background info after a short while. Let your brain become accustomed to them and they will fade just like Advertisements. Being from the "would like back plots and places" group, I am estatic that I can find plot/story type posts in the bulging mass that is the...

Then I can only conclude that your browser is magical. :/ I tested it again before I posted that, and I got the same results. However, I am using Firefox, which shouldn't matter but may in the end. Edit: Did you have it also set to any date, all sections of the site, any size, in child forums...

Unless I do not follow my home-made guidelines above, it does it any time of the day (having insomnia lately has allowed me to actually try that). For example: Searching for "Fighters" in Search Entire Posts has always gotten me a white screen. Searching for "Fighters" in Search Titles Only...

I found the 1st edition books in a thrift store for a dollar each when I was 10 years old. The place in question had a habit of simply labeling books either 66 cents or 99 cents in wax pen so it was easy to wipe off after you got it home. I have so many DragonLance books from that store as...
