Umm, how about Gen Con No Cal? As in San Franciso/San Jose, not 0 calories. We Oregonians and Washingtonians want to go too, and a nice centralized location would be sweet for yours truly and his gaggle of gamer friends! Although, if it ends up being in LA, I won't complain. There's actually...

Hey-Lo, A char in my campaign is aspiring to the Lasher PrC. As missile weapons, whips provoke an AoO to use one if you are being threatened. Also, you technically wouldn't be able to threaten other squares like you could with a pike. On the other hand, the spiked chain, a somewhat similar...

Do you mean 'their own personal top tens' as in they each chose their 10 favorites, and the final 11 were settled on by committee? Or are you asking how many of the judges chose their own work as one of their top 10? :) I'm guessing you meant the first one, but just wanted to make sure.

Mutants & Masterminds I'm surprised no one so far has mentioned Green Ronin's upcoming "Mutants and Masterminds". Initial buzz is very positive, it has incredible art, and is D20 to boot. Its definitely the superhero game that I'm most excited about right now. Read more about it here...

Wow, that's sweet, Hal, he does good work.

As far as the Legendary animals are concerned, they are less for your party to fight, and more so that your epic druids and rangers can have animal companions that are still worthwhile at the higher levels.

I had a feeling that the BoVD and accompanying Dragon mag would be more tame than certain chicken little's were saying. This content does not look much more edgy than things that have already appeared in Dark Sun, the old Fiend Folio, Lords of Darkness, and many other products. I'm really...

Almost anything from the Pixies album 'Trompe Le Monde'. Great space/surf/punk music. 'Bossanova' and Frank Black's 'Frank Black' are also chock full of alien music. The 'X-Files soundtrack' (the one from the TV show is better than the one from the movie) Sugar's "Man on the Moon" from...

We just have people fend for themselves. Sometimes they'll team up and go in on things. Sometimes someone will make a store room and take orders, but everyone pays for their own stuff. Your job as a DM is to provide a good game. Their jobs as metabolic animals are to stay fed. ...and...

This book will not sink our hobby. If it was released in 1982, perhaps there would be an uproar, but 'the evil of D&D!' is no longer newsworthy. Joe sixpack and Sonya Soccer Mom have already seen the 700 Club special on demonworshipping and D&D six times now. Its yesterday's news. People...

I'm sooo sorry... All my best to you and your family at this time. I will definitely raise a toast at my next game. -psi

Lesserbane? Just picked it up. Looks great. One question though: Is the lesserbane ability in error on the last page? Surely it should be either +1d6 damage to a monster type, or maybe +2d6 to a specific species/subrace? As it reads, its the same as the bane ability, but at a +1 cost...

Sonic not that great Sonic is no better than the other elements, and in some ways worse. While I agree that too few things have resistances to sonic energy, the flipside is that you can do double damage with most of the other energy types against the right opponent. Take your average fire...

Ding! My group does this, too. A few of them are EQers, but others (like myself) learned from Diablo 2.

I like it early.. I loved getting the epic module a month before the ELH. It takes me about that long to work an adventure into my campaign anyway, and the quality of the adventure along with the hints from the ELH were quite successful at increasing my anticipation for the hardbound. Good...

Origins I shall be there in the capacity of 'gamer'. I will definitely stop by the Green Ronin booth, NikChick, you guys and girls are the best-est, says I. I'm also praying that the WotC castle will have the first several copies of the Epic Level Handbook and maybe some E-Tools demos, too...

Myself and Lord Nightshade submitted one entry today. TNR 10 point font.

Looks very, very good Obviously, I haven't been able to run it yet, but after flipping about half way through it, it looks incredibly cool this far. I haven't been this excited to run a published module since I picked up "Madness in Freeport"...

Origins instead? Alas, me and my pals are going to Origins instead. We rotate every year between it and GenCon. Anyone else headed to Columbus? We can start our own little party, dammit!
