    laptops in-game?

    Everyone in our group of 6 uses a laptop at the game. When it is my turn to DM, I use it for running my adventures as well as keeping track of combat with all relevant stats and initiative orders preset in a spreadsheet (enter initiative, click the sort micro, and everything in it's proper...

    give me your over-arching plots NOW!!! please :)

    First... a little history: In my campaign world of Tiessa, a little over 900 years in the past, the elven empire ruled the largest continent called Makinth. While the elves ruled, their low birth rate precluded there being enough of them to truly control the other races found within their...

    Your opinion on a call

    Okay, give me your opinion on the following situation that happened in the campaign I play in last session. We are playing 10th level characters, of which mine is a 5th level Rogue/5th level Thief-Acrobat. I am scouting ahead of the party in a noble's private estate that he has lost contact...

    Who plays paintball?

    Yeah, every field I go to does not allow the use of red paint. Makes it difficult for the refs/first responders to see if there is actually blood or not when someone gets injured. There is one field in central Texas where the owner prefers red paint... says it is more realistic. Personally, I...

    Sword Fight Ensues After South Carolina Break-In

    John Ya Ya... he was the man!!!! I actually bought this on DVD as soon as I saw it was available. "Hey, hey, hey. Don't be mean. We don't have to be mean because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are." - Dr. Buckaroo Banzai

    Sword Fight Ensues After South Carolina Break-In

    I had a friend sneak into my house once after a party (he left some stuff there and didn't want to wake me... never said my friends were smart). The swords that I collect were not what worried him. It was the Beretta 9mm Pistol that he came face-to-face with that scared the crap outta him...

    Who plays paintball?

    Heh, well if you are getting free lunches for it still, then it is all good in the end. Just as an FYI, if you are worried about head shots, JT now makes a helmet that covers the entire head, not just the face. That's not good at all. I hope he was able to recover from it eventually. Funny...

    Who plays paintball?

    krunchyfrogg - I understand, just trying to point things from another viewpoint as well. Often, we all forget that things work both ways. chakken98 - man, that is almost worth filing charges on the guy, it is definitely assault if you guys were no longer playing, etc.. Idiots like that give...

    Who plays paintball?

    Kenobi65 - Man, I am sorry to hear that. Bouncers always hurt worse than one that breaks and leave bigger welts. I could go into all kinds of possible explanation, etc. but the fact is, that just sucked! As for getting hit in the jewels, been there, done that, without a cup. And it was a...

    Who plays paintball?

    Kenobi65 - Sorry to hear you had a bad time. Were you playing at a regular field, or out with friends? I have heard stories about people playing outlaw (ie. not at a field) ball and playing with unchronographed guns (pc - markers). Usually shooting at 300+ FPS, which can really hurt a person...

    Who plays paintball?

    Just wondering. And if so, do you, or have you played, scenario paintball (ie. 24+ hour games)? Out of my gaming group of 7 people, 6 of us play paintball, with 5 of us being on the same scenario team (Team FUBAR out of Texas). Just wondering who else may play.

    I've finished reading Ptolus!

    I purchased the pdf the day it came out @ RPGNow. Since then I have been printing one chapter at a time and taking my time reading through it. I doubt I will ever run a campaign form it, but I am pretty sure that some of the ideas will find their way into the campaign world I am designing...

    Red Hand of Doom - I feel like a butcher...

    We didn't get far into the adventure, mainly because the GM had given us another quest to go on (modified White Plume Mountain), then decided to run us through RHoD to get experience. Of course, this was the one time that we decided to stick to the original adventure rather than get...

    Spell Cards

    Thanks for all your hard work Naidim. Just to let you know how I am using this, I am copying each spell that I have out of the SRD and saving the pdf. I also purchased some of the book covers offered on RPGNow, and am creating spellbooks for my players to physically have at our games. If...

    [SEP] Treasure Chest Unlocked: Gems

    I have to say that this is something I have been looking for. Not so much for the descriptions (though that is very nice and extremely well done) but for the possible mystic attributes assigned to each gem. I have been working on a new spellcasting system that ties to the use of gemstones as a...

    Registration

    Good information. My friends and I are also planning to attend our first GenCon this year and were already looking at getting hotel room reservations. Didn't know anything about the discounted rates (what I get for letting a friend research the trip instead of doing it myself).

    DriveThruRPG is down! GRR!

    LOL, I just posted something similar in the Publishers forum because I didn't get one of my DriveThruRPG purchases.

    Satisfaction with RPGNow

    I just had to post this, and the Publishing Forum seemed the best place (Moderators, if this is the wrong place, please move to where you feel is proper). On the 21st of December, I made a fairly good-sized purchase at RPGNow, including the Runequest and Runequest Companion pdfs...
