    Order of the Stick, 390

    Guys, Elan probably scored a whole cheat sheet of catch-phrases from Cap'n Julio. I don't think he'll have to worry about making Nale see the point (Zing!) and forcing Name to deal with his rapier wit! (zing!) Of course, For mega-drama Hailey will break out of her jumble-speak to say "I love...

    101 ship wrecks

    Heh, i've got a bunch! Abandoned Shipwreck Washed high on a dune, evidently by a great wave, this shipwreck shows signs of life, possibly in the recent past. Someone strung up a canopy over the gaping hole in the side, and there's a organized pile of driftwood and shattered timber nearby...

    OOTS 388 is up

    Would have made more sense to me if Cid, Sid, or even Cyd had been the airship captain., since i'm only up to FFIII... That's FFIII for the Nintendo DS. I'm trying to play through the original Final fantasies before i get started in the modern 7-13 arena.

    Can you teach someone not to (bad) metagame - (or at least not be rude)

    easy answers to the hard question: 1. Get Exotic. Dump the standard Monster manual, go out and grab some expanded content stuff. MMII, MMIII, monsters of faerun, Deities and demigods... any of the hundreds of bestiaries created before the big 3.0 crash. A simple perusal should yield dozens...

    Race Balance

    *cough* I've actually never noticed a racial imbalance... I mean, sure, dwarves seem to get a grab-bag of goodies, but consider, how many of their thingies are actually useful? +2 con: Really useful. More hit points are allways better. -2 charisma: poor charisma, it's like the redheaded...

    Tolkien Killed My Homebrew

    I realized i couldn't escape the overshadowing fiction of the authors that I had read, so instead, I took it and RAN. Fallow, my homebrew world, Has Ziggurat-building dwarves (they don't live under mountains, they build new ones) who shave off all their body hair and worship the god of the sun...

    Hmmm... going by length, that's a Slit-past-the-navel lace up affair with a slit in the side... Half "Jessica Rabbit" half "Vampirella trying to look conservative." Congrats you just gave Haley a classic "Do me" dress.

    OotS 380

    Dear gods... "The Red knight is requesting Lodging". That's the SECOND time I've ever heard of a woman's cycle referred to in gaming terms. The first was when A dear friend of mine (let's just call her "Elf) told me that there was "a crimson horde at the gate"...

    D&D Miniatures and Heroclix together?

    Actually, most Mageknight humans are 1.2 inches tall (or roughly 6' tall in D&D terms) For best effect, snap them off their bases, and glue them to a bit of 1" posterboard. many of the early Mage Knight figures were Grossly out of proportion (the skeletons were nearly nine feet tall) but later...

    What about these? * Complete a combat against aggressive opponents that outnumber the party... Without killing anyone. +50xp*level for the player with the incentive card, +25xp*level for all other players in the party for not killing anyone. * Deliver a one minute monologue in-character...

    Perverse Incentives

    Okay, a few ideas: * Narrate an encounter with any NPC as if it was a Noir film and you were the seasoned private eye's internal monologue. +50 xp * character level +5 * level bonus for each improbably simile and metaphor you work into the narration. * Craft a bizarre item for a "ritual" for...
