Heck, I'll write a review if somebody wants to loan me a copy! :lol: -Ashrum

I will also point out that a number of issues have been reported of the game freezing during play on some machines. The fixes right now involve diosabling EAX, or AGP texturing among other things. I can testify to this issue, it died and took my install of windows with it. On a fresh build I...

I loved it. I modified it to run under 3.5 and then used it as the supposed prison of a ghost dragon that the PC's were trying to find and destroy a little more permanently. By the end of the module they were cursing eveything elven, as I made it an elven made prison. And there were two elves...

Nah, I like them. The build character! ;) -Ashrum

Privateer Press's Monsternomican, and their Full Metal Fantasy Volumes 1 and 2 are definitely at the same, or better, level as WotC. Their campiagn world is well thought out, logical in its complexity, and is just plain fun! Also the Denizens of Avadnu monster book was incredible, and they...

For me its simple survival. My wife is do to give birth on September 5th to our first child. If I were to leave for a weekend at this point, especially for a gaming convention she'd want to be at as well, I firmly believe she'd mount my head on a pike in the front yard. :D -Ashrum

Mine would be Qual Pachim. Evil Psionic elven warrior. He was evil through and through, and trapped in a prison for all eternity by his people, until the PC's came along. They were there to restore the heart of the elven kingdom which required them to enter the prison and destroy it. they were...

HaHa! Now my job and my hobbey have both been compared to herding cats! I love it! Yes, this happens all the time. I had a small section of an adventure that I read through and figured it should take no more than a night. A simple smash and grab of the dungeon and they'll be out right? Wrong...

In my camaigns I set third party stuff off by default and only use them after I've had a chance to really give them a once over. I tend to allow most WOTC materials, but still retain veto power for some of the more "wonky" feats and prestige classes. Beyond that a lot of the third party material...

And I would just like to say good job Michael Morris! Not everybody would have gone the extra mile to help folks like that. -Ashrum

If you don't mind the cost you could also try the sabol army transports as well, at: http://www6.mailordercentral.com/thewarstore/products.asp?dept=1023 Neil at the War Store has a great reputation in the minitures circles. -Ashrum

Thanks guys for all the advice. I think folks are a little stuck on the thirty page write up. :) Keep in mind I only gave that to them when they asked for it. It really isn't much more than a tone for each of the areas they're from, and some hints for roleplaying a character from there. I...

Thanks guys for all the idea's. I am seriously going to talk to them about the information flow and play stye. If they just want to kill things and take their stuff, that's fine. But maybe one of them may want to take over the DMing job for a while then. Please keep the ideas coming, if...

I know thirty pages sounds like a lot, but I started giving each of them just the background on thier country, along with some general world history. That didn't amount to more than maybe eight typed pages each. I gave them all the rest when they seemed to flounder without more detail to work...

Okay folks, I'd love to pick your brains. I've posted this over at the RBDM forum, so Ithought I'd cross post it here and see what kinds of answers I get. I've run into a dilemma of sorts with my players. They're playing in my arcana evolved homebrew and they each have a thirty page brief on the...

Sorry Henry. Shutting up now. :heh: I should know better than to write a reply when I'm irritated. -Ashrum

Actually, I went into my first Wal-Mart cold turkey, and was not pleased by the experience in the least. The service was sub par, and the store itself was not clean. Hence my comment about not feeling clean after I left. Then, of course, I saw the TV spots which seemed to indicate that the...

I'd have to say that my one brush with the actual judicial system really soured me on it. I was subpoenaed as a witness for the defense in a case involving one of my players. He was accused of a pretty heinous crime, and his experiences at my game were called into question as having aided him in...

Which is also a failing of the upper management of the company. For not seeing what's going on below them, and for not doing something about it. I've got to say that I have been in a walmart all of three times, and came out feeling dirty each time. The place just seemed to not feel clean. And...

Firstly, Sorry to here about the gaming implosion, hope you get a new game going soon though. Secondly, yep, had the "test" session run on me as well. But by the DM. (sigh) It's never fun to find out that you were being tested and you didn't know it. Especially since life can happen and cuase...
