    Amazon Orphans unite!

    My gift set is due to be shipped today. Still no e-mail from Amazon but I'll give them till COB today. Tomorrow I'll try to contact them if there is still no sign of a shipped package.

    Now that 4e is out, are you into it or sticking with a prior edition?

    I don't have a whole lot of prep time anymore so I'm gladly switching to 4E. However, my 3.XE books will have a place of honor right next to my 1e and 2e books on my bookshelf. :)

    Amazon Orphans unite!

    Mine still shows a June 10th ship date so we'll see what happens tomorrow. It is pretty much a bunch of crap. For the folks who pre-ordered they knew how many sets they needed to have on hand ahead of time to meet those orders. I don't have any pity for folks who ordered after the launch but...

    You don't like the new edition? Tell me about it!

    PLEASE!!! That was my key gripe about 3.X Edition. In 2E I had all of the Wizards and Priests spell compendiums. The number of spells that 2E had totally blew away 3.X. I loved that the compendiums has spells that were helpful in the campaign sense but not necessarily in combat. Example...

    Amazon shipped my books

    HEY!!! I'm 35 and still giddy about D&D as I was when I picked it up back in 1980! Mine is showing a ship date of June 10th. :(

    WotC Official PDF versions - would you buy them?

    Personally I think each hardcover book should have a download code in a sealed envelope on the inside cover that will allow a person who purchased a paper copy of the book to download the PDF for free. For those who don't want to purchase the paper copy but only want the PDF they could purchase...

    Looking for players in Dumfries VA

    How does something from 6pm to 10 or 11pm sound? I don't like to go too late myself as I'll be a zombie the next day. I'm not as young as I used to be and I've got a little guy who'll run me ragged if I am in zombie mode.

    Looking for players in Dumfries VA

    I'm trying to get a group together in Woodbridge on the 1st and 3rd Saturday nights of each month. Would that work for you?

    NWN 1 ideal charcter

    I beat the game playing a Human Fighter/Wizard/Cleric. I only took one level each of Wizard and Cleric so I could use all of the magic items in the game and still rock in melee. I'd suggest that combo to anyone.

    (Dark Heresy) Had a crazy idea for a Space Marine campaign.

    I like the idea of the Necrons as a polar opposite and arch enemy of the Tyranids. With the Tyranids everything they have/use is living... every ship, weapon, round of ammunition. That said, the Necrons would take it upon themselves to eradicate every piece of Tyranid equipment and technology.

    Worst role-playing experience?

    I was running a Mage the Ascension game and had a problem player. He wanted to play something but didn't really want to play Mage. The rest of the players were getting into the spirit of a sandbox style game... actually going out and finding the action. He had his Virtual Adept working at a...

    Who's the Biggest RPG Company?

    I think that is a strength of White Wolf. Don't worry so much about balance. If you want to play something... play it and don't worry about if some other PC is more powerful than you.

    (Dark Heresy) Had a crazy idea for a Space Marine campaign.

    I'd play it! :) If I were running it once the PCs have played a significant portion of the campaign and feel all nice and cozy in their new homeworld I'd have a force of sleeping Necrons awaken and begin to stage a campaign of eradicating the living from the planet. Nothing would announce...
