    The Tome of Time (A second book of magic)

    Without any real playtesting done on a more unique concept like the Historian, it's hard to say. It looks much fuller than other classes, but the abilities on their own are somewhat weak without the techniques and eras attached to them. I'd say leave it for now and change it only when...

    d20 Modern Sourcebooks Needs New Art

    We're working on a revision of an existing sourcebook at Emerald Press, along with some new supplements to go with and a couple of additional adventures. Our original artist is looking to get back on board with a couple new pieces, but I'd like to expand things further and find a second artist...

    Do you describe HP abstractly?

    I use something from Earthdawn called wound threshold to actually describe true "damage" to PCs. Each character starts with a base of 4 + Constitution modifier + level modifier based on their class (so fighters/paladins and the like get a higher modifier than wizards/sorcerers due to their...

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    I'm sure it's actually quite natural, especially for first-time judges. If a judge should happen to fire off their verdict before we're ready, we should encourage him to try again for the next round and take his time. Type slower if he feels that he's coming to the end of the paragraph too...

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    Even if it is the case, it's been a couple of years since I put anything out. The juices have only just begun to flow anew!

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    We have a PDF out there called Treasure Hunter that uses d20 Modern rules for D&D style adventures... and I just sent off an email to the author about expanding it to include other non-medieval timelines. There are rules for incorporating magic to a modern world scenario and the like, so the...

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    Thanks for the comments. Considering the type of story I was going for, I figured a literal approach to the pictures was best, but I do have to agree with your thoughts on Avatar's use of the pictures. If nothing else comes of this, I just might want to continue on with Duke and the gang. It...

    Thanks, but I'm assuming the odds are slim. I haven't read your post yet (just woke up and thought I'd go BEYOND the rules and wait until I get home tonight after the deadline to read it), but best of luck to you regardless.

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    I just disqualified myself. I entered all the code for formatting in the Word file, but didn't account for tabs to not appear. So I simply edited my post and changed it so that it was more legible... then remembered that editing posts are forbidden as soon as it was done. While I could always...

    Gunfight on the Plains of the Abyss By Todd Crapper The sound of creaking metal overcame the wind as MaryAnn rounded the corner, passing the wreckage of an immense, wheeled vehicle. Her heels stepped over pebble and bone, her hair blown wildly in the gust of dust and ash consuming the world...

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    Oooooh, the anticipation is just killing me. It's almost unbearable to find out how this first round plays out. ... What is this for again? ;)

    AD&D 1E 1E Rangers

    Anyone know where I can get hold of a 1E/OSRIC character sheet? PDF version. You know, the kind you get without paying for one.

    TV/Movie Characters in your game...

    YES!! All dwarves are scotish or John Rhys-Davies. And, worse come to worse, the dwarf from the Dungeons and Dragons movie.

    The Tome of Time (A second book of magic)

    Do you have Word files of all your slices written down or is that everything you have listed here? I don't mind coming up with some stuff - the idea you have sounds very interesting and I like the fact that it isn't "magic."

    Making Player Rolls

    It was done like that originally, but she failed. Now they think they have her completely convinced, but not one of her assistants. To keep with the story, however, I want to make a re-roll for the Sense Motive but not let the PCs know I am. Right now, they think they could tell her the sky...

    TV/Movie Characters in your game...

    I have another guy based on House too - a hound archon. Kind of came up at the last minute when I realised I had no idea how this character was going to interact, so I suddenly decided to go a bit away from the expected norm of an angel and make him condesending and arrogant. The voice isn't...

    Making Player Rolls

    Sounds good... now I just need to find a way to do the same for a Sense Motive opposed roll.

    AD&D 1E 1E Rangers

    Was invited to play 1st Edition in a couple of weeks, but I don't have any of those books (and probably wouldn't want to open them if I did). They said they needed a ranger. Rough list of the ranger abilities if anyone has them?
