I would go with Freeport over Geanavue. Freeport is the 'wild west' of fantasy gaming, with an adventure in every seedy tavern, smoke filled room, and ancient temple. A friend of mine has Geanavue, and while flipping through it, it seemed kinda, well, boring. While I didn't read it cover...

Prostitution in the blurb, not the book? According to a post by Monte on his boards, the WotC product blurb is incorrect as to the book's inclusion of prostitution related material, as far as he is aware: "On this particular product, take what the catalog copy says with a grain of salt...

I have to agree with you completely here. People who get upset because they 'invented' the extra rage feat is just ridiculous. It is an obvious extension of the existing rules, and could easily have been thought up by any of a thousand different people. I also don't think that WotC is copying...

Any other opinions? Thanks, AuraSeer, I agree that the spells would be far less useful if they can't identify items and buffs. Anyone think that they don't?

Read the Errata, too The errata for the book also says that you can't use the ability to cast a spell you wouldn't be able to cast without the ability. For example, a 12th level sorcerer couldn't use it to empower his cone of cold, because he doesn't have any 7th level slots. Once he gets to...

I have a question about the Know Protections and Know Vulnerabilities spells in Magic of Faerun. Can the caster obtain information about spells and items that are affecting the target? Or only the targets 'natural' protections and vulnerabilities? The description of both spells fails to...

Color of links on site Hey Claudio, Love your stuff, and your site. One suggestion I have would be to change that harsh blue used for the links on your website. They are hard to read, and strain out my eyes terribly. Of course, I could just be a mutant with overly sensitive occular nerves...

Disguise Spell? There's "Disguise Spell" in Song & Silence. It essentially lets a bard 'hide' a spell within a musical performance. Is this the one you mean?

That's odd.. I have used my 3E books far more than I ever used any of my old 2E stuff, and I am yet to have any problems with the bindings on any of them, and we play 1-2 times per week, not to mention occasional reading of them at my home. Bad Mojo: Tough break on the Cthulu, especially being...

A friend of mine plays a character who actually uses a slight variation on that exact same line in-game: "You're cute. Do you have a little halfling in ya? ...Do you want one?" The operative word being 'little', I suppose. ;)

Yay!! Just got my confirmation email, Noah! And I am psych-ed, thanks!

Hhmmm.. Do you mind if I store my Immovable Rod in your Portable Hole? In all seriousness though, my group alternates between GenCon and Origins, and this year its Origins, which is kind of a bummer b/c the main difference that I have seen is that there are NO WOMEN at Origins. Whereas...

We use it.. We use the 'death by massive damage' rule in our campaigns. Its come up 3-4 times, but only once has someone failed the save and actually died. I actually like the rule. Even though D&D combat is abstract, every once in a while there is that perfect headshot that could kill ya...

Amen to that!! I failed my roll against the unending text's inimidation check.

Rogue On!! Yep, the sneak attack dice and uncanny dodge are worth 3 levels of rogue for every duelist, says I!! (Mine is currently Duelist 9, Fighter 4, Rogue 3)

1) Monte Cook, Sean K Reynolds, and Bruce Cordell. I also have high respect for Jonathan Tweet, its too bad he's been stuck in Chainmail for the past year +. 2) My group are Monte Cook & Sean K Reynolds fanboys as well, because of RttToEE & Books of Eldritch Might, and because we all feel that...

Warning Labels on addictive items.. Yeah, we should sticker everything even remotely addictive, says I. In fact, I think we should make it a law that on every baby's birth, they be given a large, permanent tattoo which says the following: "Surgeon General's warning: Sexual activity has been...

Not this year, I'm afraid.. My group has been alternating between GenCon and Origins the past 3ish years, and its Origins' turn this year. So I'm sad I'll miss the last hurrah in Milwaukee, but It will be exciting to 'open' the con in Indy next year. Have fun, and if any of you are at Origins...

I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse.. A very similar thing happened with the first two Godfather films. The first won several awards, including Best Picture, and was proclaimed as one of the best films ever. Then the second came out, and won best picture again. (Many, including...

Filler games... My group's favorite filler game went from Guillotine to Munchkin and is now Carcassonne. Its a beautiful and fast tile-placing game which is easy to learn while retaining quite a bit of depth. We also play Settlers/Seafarers/Starfarers of Catan, Apples to Apples, Medici, Mama...
