Oh I assure you, it is no joke. Although I have never heard of Bugaboo. If what he was doing was real, I would love to have a discussion with him. As far as instructions, it does require a bit of pride swallowing. As I am being subservient to their rule, if the boss doesn't want to play with...

No waivers, but they are a pretty mature bunch. We had several long conversations up front, so that I could determine best how to fit their play style. I was curious what would happen the first time it came up, but it went just fine. In fact, there are times they are easier to deal with than...

Many folks on here have asked me about my .sig and what the reference to being a professional game master actually means. I figured that rather than hijacking someone elses thread I would just post a brief explanation here and answer any other questions (if there are any). About 7 months ago I...

I certainly am not superior to anyone in anyway. I do not, however, have any problem with anyone using anything I come up with in their games. Heck, if you want I can send you the whole setting. Send me a private message with how to contact you if you are interested.

Rather than retyping, I just cut and paste the sections you asked about directly from my player's guide. I will add a caveat to this: this is all from a guide meant for my players and these are all based on specific situations that have caused major problems in my gaming group in the past. Many...

That is the TOC from the players guide that I put together for my homebrew. Nothing that is publishable (word?) but my players respond well to it. I looked that the FRCS and the PHB as models for how to structure the layout. In fact, I copied alot of it directly from the PHB's style.

Oh yeah, right here. After I go tback from GenCon I did a little experiment. I got out all my books and catalogued them and tallied up the cover prices. Holy shnikes! I am the 'proud'(?) owner of almost $10,000 worth of game books, of which, almsot 85% is d20. I will say that again. $10,000. I...

I incorporate Cthulhu HEAVILY into my games. I have tried my best to merge the two settings of DnD and Cthulhu as much as possible. Sanity is something we track regularly in all of my DnD games, regardless of whether or not the campaigns focus is on super natural horror. As to the whole Sanity...

The Epic Level Handbook fo rme was alrgely hit or miss. The Epic Level Spells are poorly done but my group and I have come up with a work around for our campaign. As for Union, I wish they had made that a separate product. That chapter was alrgely a waste of space for me. The feats are great...

The Steel Squire templates rock. I too have lost my business cards they gave me, but I picked up 2 of the complete packs. This is one of the most innovative things I have seen. The Worlds Largest Dungeon rocks. The new World of Darkness stuff is cute. I don't play it, but I picked it up...

Well I haven't read it all the way through yet, but I did pick this up at GenCon. So far my favorite part has been the part in the back, where Jim Pinto is giving thanks and he mentions Jay from Kansas City (thats me). As to the actual product, I like the layout and the crunch. It harkens back...

Perfect world eh? Well after building my gated community and quitting any real jobs, I would like to see... A collector "tomes" series wherein the PHB and various Complete books plus a tone of new stuff are compiled into a single 600+ page massive tome; the DMG and various follow up material...

I second that. This is one of the more interesting settings I think I have ever seen. I never had the chance to actually play it though.

I never stayed at Embassy for GenCon but I lived out of one for several months when I was in Atlanta for one of my jobs a few years ago. I also stay at Embassy every chance I get and I cannot recomend them enough. The thing I like about Embassy is that no matter where you go you know what to...

I for one have reached a sturation point as well. I love monster books and I used to be one of the biggest supporters of the Monsternomicon and Liber Beastarius. But since purchasing both, I don't think I have actually used either one (my fault, I know). As such, I have noticed that the bulk of...

I agree as well. The more generic the better. Scalable maps that can be used with mini's are great as well.

Don't know if you are still tracking this thread but I will offer up my opinions... Overall I like it. From a marketing standpoint the idea to make the logo intelligable (sp) was a good idea. As for it being to retro...who could care less. I can honestly say that in the entire history of me...

Sounds pretty poopy to me. Leave the group and go find a group that you can respect.
