If I can cross-post some questions I posed in jeff's other similar thread: I think this is a great idea -- perhaps because it's one Behemoth3 has had on the drawing board for a while now :cool: -- but these price points sound way too low to me. Comic books and WEG's old Star Wars tie-ins both...

Why not start with Gygax's list of inspirational and recommended reading from the AD&D DMG? Some other books that deserve to be on there are the aforementioned Mythago Wood (Holdstock) and Westeros series (Martin), plus Nifft the Lean (Michael Shea), Bridge of Birds (Barry Hughart), The Phoenix...

Wulf, it sounds like you're talking about an Excel sheet here - how would I get a copy? I took a stab at it myself when using GT to do some CR evaluation*, but yours is no doubt superior. * which is actually why I bought it, based on EN World buzz, and have since found it to be cool for many...

I think this is a great idea -- perhaps because it's one Behemoth3 has had on the drawing board for a while now :cool: -- but these price points sound way too low to me. Comic books and WEG's old Star Wars tie-ins both have big audiences, so that they could take advantage of the economy of...

This is a great thread - I've always felt that the xp-for-kills is one of the weakest parts of the classic D&D framework (mocked in the old Dragon Magazine cartoon about giving a PC a monster in a box, with a slot saying "Stick Sword Here", for their birthday) and it's great to see some other...

Wow, andragor, that rocks! Thanks much (and pass it on to your collaborators).

I have to admit that the formula behind the tables in the DMG - the relationship of any given CR to the EL vs. a certain APL - eludes me completely; and since what I most often want to do is calculate the EL of a mixed group of a range of different CRs fighting together, the tables aren't...

I love the encounter calculator designed by Arcady (here for example), but since I often use it to do a bunch of encounters at once, I spend a lot of time clicking buttons back and forth. It'd be great to have an Excel spreadsheet that does the same thing: you'd enter a series of monters (# of...

To paraphrase Sir McCartney, You'd think that people Would have had enough Of more monster books I look around me and I see it isn't so Some people wanna fill the world With more monster books And what's wrong with that? I'd like to know 'cause here I go again Seriously, no one ever...

If you're going to take creative writing courses, I'd go for ones in writing screenplays or dramas - both because I think good adventures often have a three-act structure, and because you'll get a more sympathetic perspective. If you go to the average short-story or novel-writing class with a...

Shawn/Kaji, I resent your download info for Masters and Minions to the address you requested. Were you able to find your email, wheeljack? PM me with your address if not.

Me, three! You and I have to wake up pretty early to beat Ed to an idea, I guess :) In addition to the great things that have been said about Ed & his tiles, I'd like to add that he's very supportive of fellow publishers and open to collaboration* - this proves to be true of just about...

Not even if you count the kind of conversation you have when you're 12 - "yeah, Hastur's pretty tough, but my character could take him" - as diceless roleplaying; we didn't have the discipline to go front-to-back, so I'm sure some deities got skipped. Isn't the World's Largest Dungeon a killing...

W23 is/will be carrying the print editions of our Horde Books, and I emailed e23 expressing interest in selling the PDF editions through them as well. Will let you know when I learn more.

Chris, I haven't posted in this thread yet for some reason, but ever since you've started it I've been meaning to say: good work, keep up the good fight! Reviewing PDFs is a vital service to the field, and it's great that you're doing it. It's important not to burn out, so I think you should...

I've heard good things about Darkfuries' New Glory Naval Base: a completely mapped out location w/notes on who's where, duty rosters, etc. It's for d20 Modern but could be useful for CoC too.

'Tis sweet indeed. Congradulations on the move, everyone!

A Swamp-full of Stirges (D&D/d20) The Explorer's Guild usually commissions reports on unknown monsters, not famous ones. Why, then, have they offered a sizable reward for new investigations of the stirge, a common nuisance that's been thoroughly described in bestiaries for over a quarter...

BOOYAH! (Are you sure you're not just embarrassed to call that an ejaculation?) I'm glad our module is going to be your first DMing experience, Tracerbullet. Do you have our Horde Books? If not, I'll hook you up with 'em so you can start getting to know the new monsters & ecologies. The...
