Hi, I can't recommend any specific guides but there are lots of them out there. Here is a good place to begin. http://directory.google.com/Top/Games/Roleplaying/World_Building/Map_Making/?il=1 Also: go to www.google.com and do searches like "map creation", "digital map creation"...

Oh boy ... I'll jump in though all the major stuff has already been mentioned multiple times. :P Dramatic: Anything from Star Wars, esp. the original trilogy saber battles and Obi Wan & Qui Gon vs. Darth Maul in Ep I. Yoda vs. Dooku, while I think it was about as good as it possibly could...

"size matters not! judge me by my size, do you?" Okay, obligatory Yoda quote aside, you're right, people do react that way. Non-readers in particular. As if the bigger the book is, the more difficult it is or the larger your brain must be to comprehend it. Oh well ... at least it's a...

I REALLY like Charlie (my fav character after Locke) but I agree, he should have died. It would have given you more a feeling that nobody is safe, everyone is expendable. That said, we already know that at LEAST one of the main characters is supposed to die before the season ends, according to...

Whoa where did this come from. :P It sprung out of nowhere and it's so ... so ... pretty :D :D :D

I love the costume! Best Bat costume ever (but the one from Batman: Dead End was very sweet) I would have been satisfied if they went with a more Spider-Man approach, something that is a bit more like spandex, but the mask is perfect. The new Batmobile ... I'm not so sure. I know why they...

I enjoy short stories, especially if published in a collection (like how Stephen King and many other authors do it) Sometimes a relatively short, well-structured story is refreshing amongst all these epic novel series which go on for 3, 6, 9 books or more, wouldn't you agree?

Clark is definitely not gay (although Bruce Wayne probably has something going on in that area) I got tired of Smallville too. The WB is horrible at translating its newly aquired DC Comics characters (well, somewhat new) to the small sceen (other than the animated shows which tend to be much...

According to some recent reports, a third installment of The Talisman/Black House series is in the future. So, The Dark Tower goes on afterall! About movies, I don't think we'll see The Dark Tower on the big screen -- ever. It's a TV series waiting to happen. In the unlikely event of a movie...

I do think projectors will be the way of tomorrow, look at this new wave of flatscreen TVs we're seeing. People whant large screens that take up virtually no space and projectors can give them that. I'm sure projectors, once they reach the proper level of popularity and consumer demand will...

Hey all, finished Dark Tower VII earlier this week. The ending left me shellshocked because it was both disappointing (mostly in how the major plot points are resolved, not the actual telling of it) and left you with a feeling that you read 7 books just to see the main character left back at...

Does Keith Baker ever sleep? The Eberron Campaign Setting, 2 of the 3 Eberron adventures, the upcoming Sharn sourcebook, this adventure, and not to mention the NOVEL City of Towers all coming out within 6 months of eachother. And just beyond that, the Races of Eberron supplement.

While not technically based off of (a single) book, I think Spider-Man 2 was better than most Spidey comics written over the last 20 years or so. Especially the ones from the 90s. Clone Saga, anyone? :P Dozens of poorly written and drawn venom or carnage mini-series? And I disagree about the...

Sounds cool, I'm liking it, but WHY are they going to use the star of the WB Smallville series to play Kent when we know that WB is working on a new Superman film? If they have cast Superman (which maybe they haven't, but they could probably do a reshoot before Batman Begins comes out and slip...

Makes sense ... besides, if a WotC product wins I'm likely to already know about it and not care much either way, but if a product I've never heard of wins an award I'm more likely to do some research about it and maybe even purchase it!

I'm sure there is a good reason, and I'm just not seeing what it is, but why are there no WotC products, none were even nominated. Is it because WotC does not desire to participate in the awards, or are they barred since they would probably win the majority of awards if they were allowed?

Praise to the D&D cartoon news, if they try to do something worthy of attention. They've gotta get things right ONCE in a while, don't they? Even poor production companies can roll a 20 sometimes. D&D II is shaping up ... thanks for the update

Uhh I think that's an inflated expectation, KenM ;)

Wow ... the Rakshasas sounds very sweet. And I agree about the lack of Brownie love

I prefer IRC with a dice rolling script. There is a thread on this page (or maybe 1 page back, 2 at the most) about IRC gaming, check it out for links to clients and other useful utilities. I heard that AOL Instant Messenger has dice abilities built in (I know that the AOL internet service...
