    (RttToEE) (Some minor spoilers) Five Years Later They Return

    I had forgotten about Thrommel the vamp! Man did that have a ripple effect in my game all those years ago! Yeah do that. In fact, if you have access go through some of the earlier modules and read them as if a party sponsored by the Temple had been there and looted the place, looking to see...

    Realmstalk (if you love it or hate it come on in)

    Jester I largely agree with you on all accounts it is a familiarity issue. I have a friend that knows Tolkien like no ones business. In fact he can quote at length from the Silmarillion. He knows Aragorn's bloodline better than his own. That is cool. If we ever play Middle Earth there is...

    (RttToEE) (Some minor spoilers) Five Years Later They Return

    Hmmm I would think about expanding the cultists zone of control. Maybe they have thoroughly infiltrated the nearby communities. Make the Temple the climax to something that is building on a wider scale, or perhaps a branch office has opened up somewhere. Build it like a growing plague.

    Intangables of D&D

    I agree no distractions. Getting your players to minimalize non-game chatter is essential. One thing we have is a gathering area. When we first get together we gab and BS in one area and when it is time to game we all go to a different room and start the game. It seems to help sometimes...

    (OT) Woohoo more snow(sarcasm)

    Once, when I lived in Fairbanks Alaska, it snowed 8 or 9 inches overnight in mid September. I was amazed that school wasn't canceled. Then it did it the next night. And the night after that. And again the night after that. It melted though come May. I always try to keep that in mind now...

    Realmstalk (if you love it or hate it come on in)

    I'll bite. My first experience with the Realms was the City Sytem product when it was brand new all those years ago. I was very impressed, and in fact I still use that product in my games to this day, although I am on my third copy. I have read some fiction from the realms. Namely the...

    World's worst D&D soundtrack

    Once we were playing and we had the WinAmp on shuffle. All was well. Metallica in battle...Diablo tracks in roleplaying... And then.... Annie Lennox.

    (RttToEE) (Some minor spoilers) Five Years Later They Return

    I guess it would mostly depend on the way the plot was advanced when ran from a bad guy perspective. What all did that entail?

    [Dragon] Stop it with the fiction

    I have never read any fiction in Dragon ever. I do not intend to ever start. Take that for what it is worth. As far as I am concerned, the magazine is at its all time high right now. I suppose if the fiction left it would probably make me even happier, unless of course it was replaced with...

    Best and Worst Settings?

    Well Poop. I had this really cool response typed up that I somehow deleted. Um... I miss EARTHDAWN. It had a great concept and flavor. The setting was masterfully done and the concept of thread items was great. Other than the that I hated the actual rules set. IRON KINGDOMS is a big stack...

    A question for those who play kobolds, orcs, or whatever

    I play a Gnoll. In fact he is my favorite character to play. We play in this area that was very loosely based on Rokugan and our characters all come from the fringes with no clan. The humans in this culture are very racist and have pushed the non human races to the extreme edges of the land...

    Forgotten Realms + Call of Cthulhu = Fun

    During the time of the avatar wars Ao cast the gods (lets call these guys the Interlopers) down to Toril. There were many supposed excuses. Here is the truth (maybe....) Ao had been relaxing one day, like he is prone to do and noticed a shining pin prick of light in an area of the firmament...

    Kansas City Game Day - A success! Photos on page 12.

    Well I wil go on record as saying that Sunday is my first choice, but Saturday is fine as well. With enough advance notice, I can do largely anything.

    IS Gary Gygax's World Builder Hardcover any good?

    Actually this thread just inspired me to buy the book. And I usually avoid what EGG writes as a matter of course, but that is just personal opinion. This book sounds like something I could use. Although perhaps DM's Almanac would be a better choice for a name. As to that other thing, sure I...

    Monster Cards - A Free Open Content Product Idea

    I truly think cards would sell. Pictures and art work would be almost essential, but there could be other NEW info as well. Like I stated earlier there could be a few examples of treasure included on the card and even a small gridded map of a lair. Other things that would be useful are...

    Monster Cards - A Free Open Content Product Idea

    I guess WoTC does own the rights to the image, though I suspect that on several accounts that could be challenged. That, however, is not my intention. I just thought the cards would be handy, more than the pictures really, namely, to save alot of book shuffling by the GM. If they were...

    Kansas City Game Day - A success! Photos on page 12.

    You are absolutely right. That is what I was thinking as well. Like I stated earlier, I 'represent' about 10 - 15 gamers. If us Enworlders get together a couple of times, word of mouth and public exposure (being seen at Phils) will bring in more attendees. As a side note, and I intend no...
