Bought it, read it, scratched my head, read it again, tossed it to the floor, and finally sold it. Let's just say it made me yearn for the days I played TSR's Marvel Super-Heroes basic set. :p

I'd use the three kids from the Knights of the Silver Dragon series that WoTC owns. I think the "gotta get home" shtick gets real old. Having the kids at home in the setting would help ground them in the world. One goal of the show would be to show how similar the characters are to kids...

I don't consider discussing last night's episode a spoiler, so I'm not going to block it. If someone hasn't seen the episode, they shouldn't be reading our discussions first. I believe the first and third episodes of season one each had two eliminations, so last night's double hit wasn't much...

Except when daddy looks at the toy and thinks "This is about the same scale as my minis. I could use this in my next D&D game!" :p

Do you have the problem of everyone speaking at once? Or when one person starts speaking, does it block the voices of everyone else?

Stress or Ignore I'm running this currently with a group of 4th level players. The original module starts out that the players are lost in the desert, out of water for two days and stumble across the pyramid's opening. You can play this two ways: 1). Stress to the players that they are...

Hussar - do you use a voice service like Skype or TeamSpeak? I'd like to know if it's easier running a game with out without conference call? On the one hand, it beats the speed of typing all the time, but does everyone talking drag combat and other activities out like F2F gaming?

That sounds like the kind of ethical delimmas I deal with at my house. That's why there are three large tubs of toys in our attic that my kids have outgrown but can't stand to part with. This is in addition to the large play room and their own bedrooms filled with toys. So my answer would be...

Last WoTC items I purchased was Expedition to Ravenloft, a couple of the Fantastic Locations and maybe the first tiles set. Everything that's come out this year, while interesting, hasn't gotten me to open up my wallet very wide. I'd like to think I'll be picking up MMV or some of the recent...

Maybe his second pair of pants was at the dry cleaners?

Are you talking virtual tabletop (OpenRPG, Fantasy Grounds) or MMORPGs?

Complete Season II will be out on DVD as well in September.

If I recall, and it's been a while since I did some smoking on the grill, soaking mesquite chips in water for about an hour, then putting them in a foil pack with holes in the top, will impart some of the smokey flavor on your food as you cook it. Be sure to put the foil pack in the coals. I've...

Painting is one of the things I do while I'm waiting for the next game! Nothing like whipping out a cool looking mini on my players to ooh and ahh over! :cool: Remember the True20 game I ran? Check out these minis that just came out on the Old Glory web site: Four Musketeers and...

"Beyond the Gap" by Harry Turtledove. This is either the first book of a series or a stand-alone, which is kinda rare for old Harry. So far so good. I've got to read quickly because my library has a copy of "The World Without Us" on hold for me. This book explores the question of what would...

Then's instead of being a jerk, Mindset was coming across as a jerk to all of us not afflicted by Asperger's Syndrome. Married or unmarried, some people come across as flirtatious. Doesn't mean they are "on the prowl," its just how they communicate. Look at the sterotypical waitress calling...

I like stream-lined monsters AND written tactics for complicated monsters. If you gave me a monster with either multiple spell-like abilities or caster levels I've got problems prioritizing which comes which. I want monsters where from round one they'll be in it for at least four rounds. But...

I thought it was his opportunity to hit on the "cute chick". ;)

FM never struck me as parody. A parody makes fun of, or is a weak imatation of the real thing. FM was sincere and showed a lot of strength. Major V on the other hand, while my favorite, never really took the show as serious as FM or FB. My pick so far is Hygenia as she seems to be the most...

You can also pick up the pdf versions for less at either the ENWorld store (RPGNow) or Paizo.com. I purchased the 2nd ed and it looks great.
