Second Sight adds psychic powers to nWOD. However, White Wolf is out of stock as is Amazon. I waited for an order from Amazon for two months before I finally canceled the order. I'd like to own it because I too want to run a game based on Supernatural. Even though the Yellow Eyed Demon is...

Check out World of Darkness 2e with the supplement books "Ghost Stories" and "Mysterious Places". I love Supernatural too and these books are the PERFECT combination for a game based on the series. Contrary to popular belief you can run a whole campaign/chronicle with Mortal characters. They...

I'd suggest the following: World of Darkness - For horror roleplaying (heavy on the roleplaying side). Also fairly easy to find players. Rules are easy to teach. D&D - Standard fare, easy to find players. Battletech - For off nights where the DM has writer's block. Twilight:2000 - Because...

That works if there is anyone else in the group who is interested in DM'ing. Often that is not the case.

I'm sorry but 3.5 isn't designed to be "Easy" to prep. Configurability breeds Complexity. The fact that improvement in the game depends on combinations of skills and feats requires that almost every NPC of note be created just like a PC. You haven't specifically stated what you spend the most...

Attila's "Sword of Mars" was supposedly discovered by a shepherd who noticed one of his flock limping for no apparant reason. I wonder who left that behind? :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attila

I agree though it is up to each DM to take the setting and make it into what they want. I once entertained the idea that Cthulhu was sleeping in the middle of the Sea of Peluria and that a group of freedom fighters had the crazy idea that rousing Cthulhu from his slumber might be the best way...

The standard Monk is not available in Midnight. The equivalent is the Defender. In Midnight the only standard classes available are the non-magical ones... Fighter, Barbarian, and Rogue. Most of the other classes have been replaced with non-magical Midnight classes (Wildlander, Channeller...

What in your educated opinion is the single best contemporary horror game ever published? Please include the reasons for your choice.

Totally disagree. I played one in an Epic Game and he totally rocked. The rest of the party began calling him "The Cannon". The fact that Eldritch Blast is a touch attack and that he could use greater invisibility made it so that he ignored his enemy's dex bonus AND armor bonus when blasting...

You know... I said the same thing about 2e and 3e but I ended up buying and playing them anyway. I guess it is the collector in me. :) At the very least I'll probably pick up the minimum needed to play. The only reason I see to buy 4e is so that I can play in the event that I can't find a...

This is one of the many reasons I like Arcana Evolved. I like the idea of the simple class of spells that every spellcaster knows, the complex list that dedicated casters know, then the exotic list that you have to take a feat to learn a spell from it. It prevents every spellcaster from being...

Bump!

I really like this idea. Based upon the descriptors you could easily decide upon saving throws. Area - Reflex Save Mind Affecting - Will Save Physiology Affecting - Fortitude Save Single Target - No Save (some previously listed effect always trumps this... example: Magic Missile only does...

Looking through my old 2e AD&D Wizard Spell Compendiums and at the new Spell Compendium I've come to the conclusion that in D&D most attack spells are really unneeded and perhaps Tunnels & Trolls had it right all along. In T&T there was really only one attack spell you needed and it was called...

Let him switch characters and don't nerf his new character for doing it. Life is too short to play a character that you don't like. :)

1) Why couldn't the Dark Templar be a PRC and a hard to qualify for one on top of that? 2) Personally I see the fact that it is underdeveloped as a strength, not a weakness. It allows the GM to do whatever they want with it.

Now that Blizzard has announced that Starcraft 2 is in production I'm wondering if it perhaps Sword & Sorcery Studios might pick up the license to publish an RPG version of the computer game. I for one would be very interested in purchasing such a product. I think the Starcraft setting is just...

I'd look at the Freeport book for some ideas. I personally love Green Ronin's Skull & Bones supplement. You could use several of the classes and PRC's from that book. The powers of the Mystic Navigator PRC would seem awesome even by Eberron standards.

Think about it.. your character has died and passed on to whatever they consider to be paradise according to the patron deity and their alignment. Would they really want to get yanked back from paradise into the world of flesh? Personally I say in most cases no. There would have to be some...
