After a slew of reported posts, I'm glad this thread has become more polite and on-topic. Please keep it that way. Carry on!

"Rel, you've sketched out some 4E house rules that are greatly admired. What are you going to do now?" "I'm going to Disney World!" (And it suddenly strikes me that many of our younger posters will have no flippin' idea what I'm quoting. I should take out my teeth, pop my Geritol and go to bed!)

Amazing. I love the golden boars - we're used to Nwm's power, but it's good to be reminded there are other powerful allies Nature can provide.

In the first season, there were a couple of episodes where Bones specifically asks at the beginning "what is the FBI doing here?", and Booth has an jurisdiction explanation. So it's not forgotten by the scriptwriters. (Or at least the scriptwriters from the first two seasons, which is all I've...

Agreed. I didn't get to play it as much as I would have liked, but still enjoyed punching out and assembling those little guys. Hopefully, that means I can get some cheap product on eBay...

Real-world political metaphors aren't necesary for this discussion. Back on topic, please.

Interesting link. I'll have to give it a good reading later. I always thought the expert-as-priest made a lot of sense in my D&D homebrews. Miracle-workers should be rare, or they're not really miracles, but day-to-day occurances. Certainly, that later approach makes for a perfectly viable D&D...

The last point in step 10 caught my eye: That's a very smart idea. Customized power cards for your character will save time and brain cells.

Keep it on-topic, please.

Not sure what single-volume flavor of D&D I'd want (probably OSRIC or Rules Compendium or PFRPG), but I'd have to have the Baron Munchausen 'RPG' with me. And probably games I want to play, but never have had time to, like Babylon 5.

To continue the Magic comparison: Yes, they do now print Mythic Rares as a level above "rare," but the quality of those cards - both artwork and playability - is very, very good. Similarly, if the new DDM approach of fewer-but-better really does give us better-looking minis, I'll be very...

I stopped by my FLGS at lunch today, and saw that KQ#7 was out. Grabbed it immediately (and once again reminded myelf that I need to re-subscribe). It has a gorgeous William O'Connor cover, and on the train home I hope to dig into the content, including: - Monsters of Osirion (Pathfinder...

Thanks, Bart! That will make lots of people happy, I think.

Good luck with it! Last night, I re-read I3 Pharaoh for the first time in ages, in preparation for a short-term 1E game. The reason I'm not running T1-4 is that I ran it back in the day, and want to try something different. As I'm discovering, I have enough 1E material to keep me going for...

Haven't been to the Philly location; sorry! (Nor to their DC store.) I'll probably stop by there in January when I'm next down there. I went to Boston in '86 or '87 to look at colleges, and I talked my parents into dropping my off at the Boston store for a half-hour. I was very excited to be...

Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay. Wow, wow, wow. There aren't enough hours in the day for me to be able to read as much of this at a time as I'd like. About two-thirds done.

The new bridge design is jarring, but well-executed. I'm looking forward to this. Bad reviews or no, I'll be in the theatre to see this next summer. (Hell, I saw ST V on opening day - if I can sit in a theatre and watch that, I can watch anything Trek-related.)

Done.

Neutral Ground's new location has almost nothing in terms of RPGs, so I wouldn't make a special visit there if I only had time for one. Definitely stop by Compleat Strategist (which is on the same block as my company's NY office - makes it handy for quick stops!). I didn't know you work there...
