    Monsternomicon

    I wish I could incorporate MORE from Iron Kingdoms but all of my players are nacy-panced "purists" and they cannot stand technology in their DnD game. I can get away with calling Steamjacks golems, but I think I would have a coup on my hand sif I tried to get a train. What is worse is that I...

    More lay-offs at WOTC! [Merged]

    Excellent point Toberane, I agree with you wholeheartedly. It is too much of a pipe dream I suppose for DnD to be bought by someone who cares for a change. It is a real shame what has become of our favorite past time. Remember when all we had to worry about was mad mommas and upset churches?

    RPG purchases you know you'll never use

    Hmm, I can honestly say that the ELH is probably the most referenced book at my table right now. 4 of my nine players own a copy! I love the ELH. There are some things that I wish I had never gotten a hold of over the years: Ninja's and Superspies (I bought this during the late eighties...

    realistic geography

    Harn is dumb. (JUST joking) When designing world stuff I follw the rules of dungeoncraft. My favorite is "Never force yourself to create more than you must." I try to do my maps with a certain plate tectonic logic to them, but I have found that time and again it never gets noitced by my...

    More lay-offs at WOTC! [Merged]

    I cant help it. I have to post on this. I understand why Hasbro is doing what it is doing, I don't agree with it, bu tI do understand. They are clearly trying to make each division stand on it's own two feet, and that is a good thing. The only thing that concerns me is what they use for...

    What's the word on Tooth and Claw?

    claw, claw, bite would have been a great name. Lets just hope that this is MUCH better than the complete humanoids handbook. On a personal note I hope my Gnoll Fighter/Ranger/Cleric/Tribal Protector won't be too affected.

    Relics and Rituals 2!!! I GOT IT!!! (More)

    That is a good point warpmind. I will definately give it a looksee. I am kind of an artsnob, so that is the only reason I was asking. And as for core feat, perhaps I misrepresented myself a bit, but my point is the same. I still felt that several of the spells were out of balance when...

    Relics and Rituals 2!!! I GOT IT!!! (More)

    What about balance? Personally, I have found that many of the spells in RRI were not very well balanced, especially when combined with certain core feats like persistent spell. Also, did they include all the info on Magic Items this time around? What about artwork, hopefully it is better as...

    Monsternomicon

    The tomes section that went into more detail on lore and what the different levels of lore meant. It outlined a few tomes of monster lore that were out there and available. I think it would be cool if the legend and lore portion of this book and this approach to designing tomes that contain...

    [Review]The Gamers Bag

    While I haven't received my super custom order yet, :D , I have been TREMENDOUSLY pleased with the levels of service that I have received. Paladin runs a top notch organization, I cannot impress upon each of you enough to give Gamer's Bag a shot. I have ordered a super pimped out custom bag...

    General setting question - Metaplot or not?

    Neither. I run a custom setting and plot it out one campaign at a time. I also agree with the previous poster about names. Kalamar and Harn names both bothered me, too much of an attempt to sound 'real'. My opinion is, if you do not have a degree in linguistics then don't try to create your...

    Pendragon d20?

    Two Points I think Pendragon for GRR Martins setting is an excellent idea. Secondly, Has anyone else done anything with traits and passions? I have been toying with this idea for a while. I think DnD, with Cthullu Magic and Mythos, and Pendragon Traits and Passions would make for a VERY...

    Monsternomicon

    I have every monster book that has come out for d20. Monsternomicon is my favorite thus far, taking the crown away from just recently published Liber Beastarius (sp?). The price was fair. The cover was traditional (or what has come to be traditional) yet fresh. The 'breakthrough' effect was...

    SKR's problem with certain high level encounters

    WOW I just finished ready all the posts for this thread! Good stuff. I agree with several separate points stated previously that the CR system breaks down at higher levels, and I also have noted that it is in some way related to the fact that it was based on sub-optimally designed iconic...

    What makes a good one-shot?

    I agree with Gospog here. I have done something very similar before and it worked great! I also killed off the pre-gens, but that was part of the story.
