Temp vs perm magic... I'm inclined as a DM to make the distinction between temporary and permanent magic items. I don't have a difficulties with potions, scrolls and items holding charges that can be expended. The quantity and quality of temporary magic is easy to adjudicate I think. For an...

I encountered the "firey" thread late last night. The discussion was a tad "intense". I was thinking to chime in myself, but thought better of it... I'm glad to see an apology :), I am happy to see it accepted, and I'm encouraged to discover we are all really quite civil once we've taken a step...

I wouldn't be so worried--we'd still be "playing" somehow... All of us here are involved in gaming because the hobby appeals to our natural talents in creativity and imaginative expression. Hello. We are special. Let's face it, we are all creative geniuses to varying degrees that share grand...

It seems to have just arrived in Canada too... I saw on a rack in my fave gaming store, le Valet d'Coeur, in Montreal today. It must have just arrived here in the last day or so (wasn't there last Thursday). I noticed these arrived here this week too: Oathbound (Bastion) - looks beautiful...

That's the same conclusion I came too. An interesting question to me is why the different "math" but the same outcome? I can only guess that D&D 3E's XP award system is not OGL... It also makes me wonder: were all XP costs in EQ tweaked by a factor of 2 (or so)? -W.

Frustrated Traveller... My friends and I lost interest in GURPS Traveller because the material on Starships and the Imperial Navy (which we really, really wanted) has never been released yet. You'd think these particulars would be a top priority for such a setting! I'm tired of waiting for a...

EQ CR vs D&D 3E CR I just took a moment to compare the CR tables bwtn two systems: the values of XP's awarded in the EQ table (from the S&SS website today) are basically 2.3333 times larger than the values earned in Table 7-1 on page 166 of the DMG. So... not only does one earn more XPs in EQ...

It's a shame about the quality... I was sooo intrigued by this product. I hesitated to buy it 'cause of the price. I had hoped reviews would be good--it would have been a nifty change to run a little d20 pulp game or so. Glad I didn't buy it though... Sigh. And it was quite well "packaged" too...

You know... When I first read this thread's title, I , er, well, I um, like you know I... *Ahem* Let me just say that that a few of us had hopes for a new visual role-playing game... ::POOF!:: ::another adventuresome poster gets burnt at the stake (steak?) as a rash of punitive burnings are...

53. Once you realize you've long forgotten what, when, and where was your very first post. Gee, I forgot mine already... How convenient :D -W.

To add a qusetion to arcady's... How does this new book from FFG compare to Spells & Spellcraft (also from FFG) that I bought a while ago? Any redundancies? Thanks :) -W.

I'm a Kalamarite! I got hooked into Kalamar shortly after 3E came out, and I was looking for a fresh setting for my game. I really appreciated the lack of metaplot to Kingdoms of Kalamar. The pronounciation of the names are a wee "issue" for me still--and I speak 3 languages (English, French...

KoK Atlas... Sorry Wicht. I'm at the KenzerCo boards alot and there's no fixed date of release posted that I've seen. In fact, this is true for most of their stuff--although when they say month X it is almost always certainly month X. They often declare that a product is released upon the...

Well... It's about time! Whether ya luv Drizzt or not, all things have come to an end... Good thing too: could you imagine if he ascended to divinity? Ya know, became a God? **shudder** -W. PS: Drizzt fans, just teasing ya :p

OH... MY... GAWD... Look what happened after 48 hours! 7 pages of "postlets"! (Okay, 6 to be fair to those "real posts" :D) hong, Wicht, Crothian, Horacio... you guys are a scream! [Pychotic aside] They have no idea what they've done. Having them reveal their secrets to posting was like...

A question of volume... Aye! There's the rub. Volume. When I first came to EN World the current day's listed posts filled only one page on screen. These days it seems to fill at least three! Wow! Keep coming with the tips folks :) -W.

LOL!!! As I've read many good posts by hong, I vote hong as resident comedian immovable du ENWorld. May hong-the-greatest-jester-ever reign for all eternity! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! -W. PS: Blushing yet, hong?

Wow. It goes to show that the best and/or most prolific writers usually had a childhood that supported or spawned the writing "bug" in the first place. Talent + interest + opportunity = success. Funny coincidence: for about the last 10 years I passed through Coburg and Port Hope to turn up hwy...

You posted in mine thread--I'll post ya back :) Hallo Maldur :) Although I'm Canadian by law, my roots are quite Dutch (at 191cm is there any doubt?). All my uncles (ooms), aunts (tantes), and cousins (neeven en nichten, sp?) live in Holland: Heiloo, Nijmegen, Groningen, Rotterdam, Vries...

Hello there. I've been a member here since last January (IIRC) and I find there's sooo much good stuff to read here I can only lurk to keep up it seems. There are many other gaming sites to visit too, and I post mostly at my current fave (www.kenzerco.com) for support for my Kalamar campaign...
