Although I can see the reasoning behind your argument, consider this: the sneaky guy, under the current rules, have to make a roll to Move Silently and another to Hide to move in the corridor without calling the attention of the guards. The latter, have to make two rolls, Spot and Listen, to...

Oh, I agree it is a feature, one that I greatly dislike. A feature, nevertheless. However, I don't see the D&D Rules Cyclopedia as an entry level product of any sort but rather as a good compromise to players who are not much interested in all the detail that D&D might offer. Being usually the...

No, I am not much in licenses, as I often disagree with a few things I would have done differently and Star Wars is not an easy game to adapt to another setting. Still, I welcome the changes, as I really believe that there is plenty of room in d20 to simplify combat and streamline skills and feats.

The D&D Rules Cyclopedia is still my favourite D&D book, especially because is the only one I have to bring to a game session whenever I run a game with it. Wizards of the Coast released at least four complete d20 games in a single volume: The Wheel of Time, Call of Cthulhu, Star Wars, and d20...

According to AD&D rules, it didn't matter what the vampire actually done when alive. All of them are the same regarding the MM stats, which means they were pretty good in combat regadless if the were fighters or farmers in the past. As far as I remember, Strahd was the first monster with class...

Having played the original (1st edition, surely) I6 and having the 2nd edition version. It's clear that, as a vampire, he didn't need any level of figther, as vampires were already pretty scary warriors by themselves. He was later boosted to higher levels to became more in tune with the...

I wasn't impressed with most 3.x adventures and I really loathes Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil. Still, pending on how it will fare in actual playing, I would say that Red Hand of Doom is a instant classic.

Great campaigns usually have great storyline, interesting plots and so on. Although those are also part of good novels, game fiction usually features poor characterization. As much as some players invest in character development, most PCs and NPCs are not very deep. Whatever you are planning...

Nice try but wouldn't you agree that some real world politicians positions or alliances are quite close to service to evil entities? :) I am pretty sure that some of the clearly evil men of history thought they were just using extreme methods to extreme situations but, still, they were working...

My intention was humour, but I missed placing a smile. Still, I don't think any society would be able to interpret itself as good or evil. That said, I agree that Roman legions were very organized, and thus lawful, compared to most of their opponents.

I am pretty sure the Romans and the Barbarians have significantly different opinions regarding their own armies.

I just brought a first edition copy of L5R RPG, I'm waiting it at the mai box next week.

From the pages of the Greyhawk Player's Guide I have to assume the Rhennee are actually European gypsies who went to Oerth through some kind of portal. At least I think that Rhop sounds to much a like to Europe. Though they rarely speak of this to outsiders, their legend claims that the race...

Isn't missing a none option?

Not my favorites, not the best, but rather the most important: Mutants & Masterminds by Green Ronin - First good OGL product not clonning D&D Death in Freeport by Green Ronin - First decent d20 adventure Creature Collection by White Wolf - Early supplement that inspired many others Arcana...

I have a single Deluxe product, which is the 25th anniversary edition of Call of Cthulhu. No color, but an exquisite layout and beautiful monochrome illustrations (which is more suitable to CoC than paintings) and a really good hardcover. Although I like very much to have it, fact is, I need to...

Perhaps you could release such adventure, skipping references to WotC's IP, not much different from what your Castle Zagyg is. People will know what is about. I bet that even the panel that elected Queen of Spiders as the best adventure ever would buy it.

Yes, but Buffy, Angel and Armies of Darkness use the Cynematic version, which is somewhat ligther in rules and customized to be... cynematic, whereas ConX, All Flesh, Armageddon, Terra Primate, and Witchcraft uses the full version of Unysistem.

I didn't liked Q1, but the previous adventures, especially the G series, were so good that I can easily understand why the compilation was so well rated.

Just finished downloading it. It looks nice and there is no Ubber NPC to be seem. So far, so good.
