    That's nice.

    I don't have to. Simply put, there's no way any sane person would say that Grave of the Fireflies and Cosplay complex were part of a "genre", any more than Aliens Vs. Predator and Sense and Sensibility are part of the same "genre". They are both films, therefore they are the same medium. But, I...

    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    I don't see any problem with that. Doesn't everybody? :uhoh:

    Watch Grave of the Fireflies, followed by Cosplay Complex. Then come back.

    Which Campaign Setting has the best fluff? Why?

    Transportation in Eberron has a tremendous impact on the world, same as it does here. Trade, for one, is so easy as to create vast wealth for the Dragonmarked Houses, which allow places as advanced as Sharn to exist. Also, because of ubiquitous transportation, the integration of different...

    Manga: Japanese word for what we in the US call "comic books", but not really. In Japan, the tradition of graphic novels, comics, what have you, is not only quite old, but cuts across genre and age categories in ways we westerners have a hard time imagining. There are manga that deal with every...

    When Bob wants to play a female PC

    Well, the problem here is I cannot for the life of me relate to what you are complaining about. I cannot fathom why it would matter to you or "bother" you. My current campaign is 6 female characters, played by 4 RL females, and 2 males, one of which is gay. And you know how much I think about...

    Easy. Forgotten Realms. It's not so much a game setting as it is a place to visit, and maybe stop at the gift shop on the way out for a t-shirt. "And on you left, you'll see Elminster's house. Please stay behind the ropes." Way, way too much information, and too many powerful NPCs. :\

    Grasp of the Emerald Claw Opinions

    Actually, just from the treasures/rewards in the two modules, my characters are rolling in dough. I'll probably do a re-boot when we start up again, though.

    Grasp of the Emerald Claw Opinions

    I own them. We played the intro adventure from the book and SotLW. Keith is a genius when it comes to some things, but I get the feeling adventure writing is not one of them. He leaves out stupid little details, such as how deep is the shaft in the Forgotten Forge? Kinda important when using a...

    D&D quote in the Washington Post

    Sounds more like Lawful Evil to me...

    Which Campaign Setting has the best fluff? Why?

    I have never read a setting that immediately gave me more adventure ideas than Eberron. Before I read it, I didn't expect to like it at all. But every page practically filled my head with ideas. It's going to become our main D&D campaign after my homebrew is finished. Kalamar is very good...

    (WotC/d20) How many books (NOT PDFs) do you own?

    And another. Guard Tower loves me. Knows my name. I shudder to think how much I've spent there. :uhoh:

    Books pricing themselves out of reach?

    I'd own Conan, but I won't buy a $50 game book just on principal.

    Sell me on D&D Miniatures

    I have mine separated in ziplock bags by type, and the bags stuffed into small plastic toolboxes. Try doing THAT with your metal painted minis! :cool:
