    Midnight 2nd edition

    I've been very impressed with it so far. The new herbalism rules are great, as was the restructuring of the bloodlines. I really like the new VP system. As a whole, the book is very well done. Well worth the money. I have the 1st edition stuff too, but I still think it was well worth getting.

    Why I refuse to support my FLGS

    Out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on my personal practice (and, I'm sure, the practice of quite a few others): I buy some items at my FLGS (paints, minis, and the occasional board game or RPG book I can't wait for) and browse other things that I buy online (most of my RPG books and board...

    Why I refuse to support my FLGS

    This is, quite possibly, one of the most absurd things I've ever heard.

    Unique background ideas for a Druid?

    Intrinsic Matt... you shouldn't be reading this, as you'll ruin the surprise. So, with that out of the way... I'm looking for ideas for a unique background for a druid. I currently play a 10th level gnome druid that was created hastily after the death of my thief in the banewarrens. My...

    Player Ostracism: Advice Needed

    If I may add something. I was once the instigator of what The Guys are doing. We did it. Our "Spud" found out, and we are no longer friends. I wish someone in our group had the balls to do exactly what Crothian suggested. It would have saved a lot of hurt all around. I'm not trying to...

    Looking for a adv. for 1 thief

    Thievery 101 is exactly what you're looking for. http://www.rpg.net/news+reviews/reviews/rev_4097.html I've run it, and it's pretty fun. The followups are pretty decent too. And it's CHEAP!

    Wierdest place you've ever gamed

    We played Vampire: The Masquerade on the lawn at a Peter, Paul and Mary concert. It wasn't a LARP.

    Grappling question

    Actually, our example involved a bear using Improved Grab. Are you saying that it wouldn't have called for the percent chance to hit the bear then, or is that just due to the way you "houseruled" it?

    Grappling question

    Is this any place in the Player's Handbook? Though I don't doubt the validity of the SRD, I'd like to figure out how we missed this if it is in the PH somewhere.

    Registration Experience (Good or bad?)

    Actually, that part's not 100% accurate. I had all day to work on registration, with no other responsibilities. Because of that, I could click every 30 seconds for hours, and get everything I wanted in my cart, which was waiting for me the next day to check out. Some people didn't have that...

    Okay, so you registered for GenCon; What is your schedule?

    I just go try to add it to my cart again. If it's full, it will tell you there are 0 slots.

    Okay, so you registered for GenCon; What is your schedule?

    It's funny, but that was exactly what I was thinking when I posted that message. Iron Lore and the DCCs totally surprised me. I still don't really know what Iron Lore is. EDIT: Wow... I just checked, and absolutely everything I registered for is full. Wow. Are there fewer events this year...

    Okay, so you registered for GenCon; What is your schedule?

    It's really interesting to see what people who were the first into registration registered for. It helps me decide what might be interesting to try next year.

    Okay, so you registered for GenCon; What is your schedule?

    I'd be talking smack if it were 3 years away. I might talk smack even if you weren't playing. It's because I care.
