Crazy Stuff. My brother has actually corresponded with the Timecube guy.

I thought we all went down and got the crook from King Kong as requested by Bigby? Isle of the Ape or somesuch? Wasn't Iggwilv there as well? It's been far too long.

I play with two different approaches to astrology. First I make everyone determine their birthdate randomly. Then, each of the 13 months of my calendar have a "Sign" appointed to them that grant anyone born in that month an ability of some type. The abilities are varying degrees of...

Rao the Bringer of Peace and Serenity I once played in a game where the multiclassing rules were a little 'relaxed'. I took the Kane in Kung-fu route and went Cleric/Monk with my Raoian. He was a total pacifist and purely defensive combatant. I played him as this total intellectual on a...

My Homebrew begain in 1988 when we the players wandered off the beaten track and starting walking west off the maps of Greyhawk. That was in the 560's CY (Greyhawk time) Since then, about 1500 game years have passed and we are in the "Fourth Age of Man" and everything is changed. No more...

I dislike them merely because I think we do not need anymore humanoid races. Earth only has the one, humans, and look at the diversity there. I am strongly against the niche humanoid race. If you are writing a module and need people that ride bats to make your story work, find a race that...

Hmmmm....yawn. Like others, I hope that the new setting has more to it than the gimmick of Psionics. Psionics have historically been a broken rules set. Dark Sun didn't do all that well. Now there is a new setting with alot of Psionics. I hope it is REALLY different. I really want this...

Is there anything for a fan of Gnolls in this book?

Gnolls rule. I play a gnoll ranger/foe hunter and love it. In our world gnolls live on the fringes of soceity and are more barbaric and spiritual in nature. Culturally they are a cross between the mongols, the celts, and certain facets of amerind shamanistic beliefs.

Let me just say that when I saw this thread title, I was thoroughly perplexed as to what it could possibly be! Although, a dinosaur liche is an interesting thought...

Make them thirteen individuals. Steer away from themes, I think you will find yourself trying to bind yourself to soem predescribed notion, and in turn miss out on something really cool. If I were to do it, it might go something like this: The Tempted: Basically this is the guy who sold out...

While I have nothing o fnotable value to bring to this conversation for I am truly ignorant of the subject, both historically and fictionally. I do encourage you all to keep throwing ideas out! I an very interested and this concept completely fills several plot holes that I never realized were...

Another idea which may or may not be handy. There used to be this girl that played with us that had a 2 yo son that loved to pester us when we played. So I would sit him on my lap and let him do all my rolling. I actually rolled better more often than not AND he quit being a distraction.

I think Force User summed it up pretty well. Although I think I can add a few comments here. The same thing that pulls me to homebrew is the same thing that pulls me to games like SimCity4 (which totally rocks by BTW), Civilization, Black & White, et al. The god design mode aspect. If you...

Well, you know what they say: "If you aint cheatin', you ain't tryin'." You could go get one of the d20's that came bundled with the Formula De game, they are numbered 11 to 20 twice. I think Formula De dice can be bought seperately as well. As a side note...FD is a really fun game I...

Re: dragonfist Forgot about this one. This is so completely entrenched on my list, its not even funny. When this comes out I suspect many games that I am involved in will never be the same. Ninja's are so sweeeet!

hmmm I honestly never knew that. That does help me with some of my suspension of disbelief issues as well. Thanks!

Re: no (or at least less) fiction You can never go wrong with more Crunchy Bits. Or make that the "Bonus Feature" section of the magazine. Something different each month. One month it could be fiction, one month a comic (think of comic books here, not strips), one month the pages could be...

I found the leShay interesting as well. In fact I use them as the Elder Elves that Bruce Cordell used to refer to in his 2nd Ed modules.

Kansas City always has a strong presence at Gen Con. In 2001 I went up with 3 of my buddies and we ran into about 30 ro 40 KC folks while were there. No kidding! Phil from Table Top of course and Behman and the guys from Collectors Cache had a strong presence there as well. One of the guys...
