    Job Interview - "What are your hobbies?"

    Is it a rude question? Then lie. (To protect your dignity). I really question the professionality of a business inquiring about a candidate's hobbies. Unless there is a direct connection between one's interests and the job requirements, it's none of the employer's d*** business. Ideally...

    d20 Sci-Fi: where is Babylon 5?

    Hey folks, A month ago I copied from the Wizard's Homebrew about 20 pages of B5 stuff created by Giant in the Playground. (I can't find the link right now, sorry.) He did excellent stuff borrowing ideas from the Star Wars RPG and a few other sources--I believe he owns that first B5 RPG that...

    Kalamar and Book of the Righteous

    "Bored of the Rings"? Gawd, I remember that awful lampoon. I could hardly finish it. It was really funny in the beginning, but it got stale real fast. Eeew. OTOH The Book of the Righteous, however, is amazing, and dovetails quite nicely with the Kingdoms of Kalamar setting! Some tweaks and...

    What do you find most useful to your gaming?

    Something else: support materiel for the GM I voted for the last item. What really helps me run games, after having the "core" books and prinicipal setting determined, are the supplies and tools such as maps, paper, good writting implements, counters, a grid mat, access to a photocopier, a GM's...

    Anyone from QC/Y a-t-y des québécois icitte?

    Salut! Je suis un jouer montréalais (Je reste au Plateau Mont-Royal, pas loin de le Valet d'Coeur sur rue St-Denis! Tu le conait?)... However, I must confess my written french isn't very good. Maybe even painful to read :o As an allophone/anglophone I run my games in english. I wouldn't mind...

    A specific question about EQRPG races/classes

    I have the EQ RPG PH too... Pertaining to porting EQ classes over to one's D&D game: if you do, port all of them over and remove the D&D 3E ones. Use one set or the other, but I wouldn't mix things up--it could get very messy mechanically speaking--such as the EQ Necromancer vs the 3E...

    [Pulp Heroes] Thrilling d20 Adventures Update

    BOOKMARKED! I luv your site! I have been toying with a d20 Pulp game for awhile now since the Polyhedron article. I'm glad someone's had the time and talent to put a site together :) BTW: check out the Egyptian Adventures thread on the General Discussion board, lots of material to build a Pulp...

    Egyptian Adventures!

    This is one of the most useful threads ever! I love the ideas thus far! :cool: My 2 cents: 1) FFG's Mythic Races might offer some variation to the subject, if not refinement. There are Animen, a beastmen-like race; Artathi, a catmen-like race broken into various sub-races; and a few...

    Which classic adventure would you like to see republished next?

    My 3 choices... 1) D&D 2E's Dragon Mountain. It's not a OD&D or 1E "classic", but I would like to see a conversion to 3E! 2) The Basic D&D module that I thought was absolutely _amazing_: B10 - Night's Dark Terror (a TSR UK module). It would be be nice to see a more generic treatment (less...

    Signing in, accounts, and related issues...

    Okay... Today is Stupid Question Day, it's my turn, and I have a bunch: How come I can't use my user name or password employed here on the new News site? Do I have to re-register? (Same thing for the Reviews site if I wish to post a review?) If we have to register a new account at each...

    Power Attack questions (two)

    A player in my game asked me two questions regarding his fighter PC tonight, and I don't have the PH with me right now. I thought to seek a knowledgeable response or two from you folks :D 1)How does Power Attack interact with the bonus damage from a magic weapon? Frex: if the wpn has a +2 to...

    [BoVD]Well, since I can't seem to post this on Wizards forums...

    Hype, hyperbole, marketing tricks and hot air... I've been watching this "vile" drama unfold--with a skeptical eye--and I'll just wait to see things for myself thank you. All along I've had this nasty feeling the rumours and hype are the sole "engines" running this issue (pun intended). For...

    How about a survey on the 3E halfling?

    Well, the poll's almost closed... Geez, I never imagined I'd cause all that "hallabaloo". :o And that flame fest. Eeeew. Someone *hong* kept their head! ;) My apologies for causing the fuss. I had hoped to find out how ppl felt. Usually we are quite civil around ENWorld--and most of you folks...

    How about a survey on the 3E halfling?

    I keep on coming across remarks by ppl on how they prefer the "old" halfling over the "new" halfling. I also wonder about the age of those who've expressed an opinion, and whether there's a correlation to some degree. I am a late 30's gamer and I am not really satisfied with the 3E version of...

    How do you stat you average NPCs

    For me, most NPC's receive the default array, [15 14 13 12 10 8], from the DMG (page 20). The 25 point standard point buy method (DMG, page 19) will produce the default array above as one outcome. Considering how high ability scores become for PCs at mid to high levels, NPCs with this array are...

    OT LOTR Lego

    I grew up with Lego... My how things have changed over 30 years! Hi there :) I couldn't resist to look since my fondest childhood memories involved the many years I played with Lego. My european relatives dumped piles of the stuff (so it seemed to me as a kid) every year under the Xmas Tree...
