    [Bad Axe Games] Looking for an evangelist or three...

    Excellent stuff, as usual, from Bad Axe! Here's why 1) Useful : with the spreadsheet, you can create random creatures on the fly. Where else do we have that? Sure, templates are great but a true randomizer? 2) Fun : I love generating stuff and see what comes up, just like rolling on the...

    Well, I now feel dumber.....

    Crap! How could I have forgotten the Daily Show! Love it love it love it!!! Hmmm....one would think they'd cancel each other out. My recommendation if it happens again: WATCH the Daily Show in it's Anti-Hilton goodness and then turn off the TV for an hour afterwards. -D

    [XRP] Just what is in A Magical Society: Beast Builder anyway?

    Curse you, Joe! Why do you wish to deplete me of my hard-earned money!! :) -D

    Well, I now feel dumber.....

    I saw a commercial for the Ashley Simpson show a few weeks back: I think they are capitalizing on <I>schadenfreude</i> : the show starts with her a few weeks(months) before her disaster on MTV and takes it to when she's booed (for the National Anthem? I've forgotten already). Funny how...

    "Lawful" Bards

    Are you guys sure? I have to wait to get home to get to my books. "Usually Lawful Evil" has the wiggle room to alter alignments but I though "Always Lawful Evil" was permanent and never can change. And I thought the "Alignment: Any" was the text in 3.0 but couldn't find it in 3.5 --- don't...

    "Lawful" Bards

    Argh!!!! There ... that's out of the way. I'm converting someone's 3.0 module to 3.5. In the 3.0 module, there's a wererat bard. This was kind of ok in 3.0 because alignment in Lycanthropes was listed as "Any/ See Example" and the example had "Wererat: Alignment: Always Lawful Evil." but it...

    How do you get your 1st level PCs together?

    In my campaign, the characters "defrosted" from statues in a museum-like tower on it's own demi-plane. They're all characters from different planes/worlds and end up phasing into a completely different world (Valus) where they're trying to a) get back home, b) figure out what's going on, c)...

    Parental advice needed

    Very good advice all around --- last few bear repeating. Let kids learn the consequences : make the consequences/punishment fit the crime. And protect them arduously from things they cannot control. Took a Fatherhood Seminar that was offered in my neighborhood. The speaker told his story ...

    Leaving Buffalo-Part II

    Small, small, small steps. Always. I've read that everywhere, but it was here that it struck the right chord. When you take big steps, you start to worry. Worrying kicks an automatic biological reflex of fight/flight/paralysis : then you are at the mercy of your body/biology/monkey-bits...

    Tell me about this free GAMEMASTERING PDF, please

    Problems? Not meaning to hijack - but I was looking at the prior emails and thought I might as well ask. Was there a revision to the Gamemastering PDF? My numbers don't compute! Take a party levels of 1 4th, and 3 5th level characters. Power : 91. Party's EL = 14 1 Monster : CR 12 Monster...

    Is Dragon Magazine even *Relevant* anymore?

    One of the best differentiators/uses of Dragon/Dungeon I saw was the Githyanki invasion issues. Dragon had the history/classes/stats while Dungeon had the actual adventure about going against the Lich Queen and how, in the Polyhedron section, to create a campaign from the Githyanki perspective...

    Has rpgnow consolidated all of the GMs day sales?

    heh..heh.. being DA means never having to say you're sorry .... because you don't a conviction to stick to! Sheesh! You're probably the type of person who puts thought into a gift rather than just going to Hel*Mart and picking up what's on sale! :D But you are absolutely right .. in the...

    searching the wizards site for Beholder cant find it spelling?

    Oh! My bad...I looked further down the page that Lasher mentioned (which is gone now) and saw the full stat block --- I thought he was getting smacked for the top of the page which had the same exact information as on the Wizards page. ...never mind..... -D

    searching the wizards site for Beholder cant find it spelling?

    Well, hold on a second! It is on the WOTC site from the 3.0 version -- not via the Wayback machine or anything. Why does posting a link to it make it illegal if WOTC themselves have the link public. To prove it : without showing the link (and risking thread closure) Go to www.wizards.com...

    Has rpgnow consolidated all of the GMs day sales?

    True ... but just to be Devil's Advocate ... it would be nice to know which ones were GM Day related b/c those companies should be rewarded for their efforts rather than a co. that just happens to have a sale that day.

    Star Trek: Enterprise (2/25/05)

    The agent part -- let me try to recall ... Archer yelled at the guy who was calling in the favor on Malcolm. Section 31 guy says "This is bigger than all of us" or somesuch. Later, Section31 guy calls Malcolm privately who says "I have a new commander now!!" or somesuch (I had forgotten that...

    [Grim Tales] Errata?

    On the topic of errata...I just want to make sure this is right. ( I don't have the book in front of me....) In the Action points section, the rule says that you can burn 1 pt to add +d6 to any d20 roll, but the rest of the section says "you can add a dice factor " (the list of die that...

    Star Trek: Enterprise (2/25/05)

    You're probably better off -- you already saw all the best parts of the episode. Someone correct me if I'm wrong -- my memory is trying to dissolve the ending. Enterprise goes to the Klingon base/lab that's creating the Augments. Columbia is around but out of range. 2 Klingon Battlecruisers...

    (IR) OOC Discussion: The Fate of the IR

    Worth a bump, wouldn't you say? ;-) Does anyone have time to host a new IR? If so, won't that change the dynamics by having that player drop out/"ascend" to DM. I think we should start over .. so much has gone on both in and out of game that, I feel, it's still SerpentEye's, where ever he...

    Valus d20 setting: ever heard of it?

    Heard about it here -- funny that it's not an option. Heard it, own it, use it, love it. My PC's really enjoy the Valus campaign setting. -D
