    Rome: Total War: how's the manual?

    If you liked the conquest part of M:TW, then I think you will really enjoy Rome:Total War. This is the one aspect of the game they really enhanced and polished. The battles really just got prettier looking ;) I wouldn't bother even touching the strategy guide, like I said, there are plenty of...

    Rome: Total War: how's the manual?

    Have you played any of the other Total War games? If you have, I think you will pick it up fairly quickly. I haven't played it in some time, but it's a fairly intuitive game. A lot of the details of city management aren't even really covered in the book (at least not in any great detail to be...

    Dervish with Whirlwind Attack feat

    As far as I understand it though, you can take a -10 to your tumble check in order to move your full speed during your round (PHB p.84). At 1st level the Dervish gains Movement Mastery which allows the Dervish to automatically take 10 on Tumble checks, and by if you go with a Rogue 7/Dervish 1...

    Multiple Disarms

    If my character has multiple attacks (+15/+10/+5) I can have him make a disarm move for every attack, correct? Thanks in advance! mac1504

    Who Uses Music in their Game?

    I use music quite a bit when I DM; most of the players think it adds more than it detracts from the game. I even use sound effects through a computer program I use (rpgsoundmixer) and that adds a lot of atmosphere as well IMO. On a side note, this topic seems to pop up every so often, and when...

    Artist looking to do some fun sketches.

    Commission Work Bobacus, I sent you an email about a week or two ago about doing a commission, did you ever get that? I know you've been busy. Anyway, if you didn't get it please email me at robmcnamee at hotmail.com. Thanks!

    Midnight

    Forge of Shadow is reportedly at the printers right now, and should be hitting shelves within the next few weeks. Under the Shadow has most likely been pushed to late January/early February. I'm not sure what will go into the second edition (there's a thread over at www.againsttheshadow.org...

    Experiments in gaming

    Not knocking the idea (I like it), but it seems that you would be pretty limited by the logical reasons for why the characters would all have the same stats, feats, class, etc. The one idea I thought of would be a group of enslaved soldiers that had been trained from birth. And now, perhaps...

    A simple sketch request

    That's a great idea Alish20- I never thought of that option. Bobacus (an artist) drew and posted a picture for me in another thread. It looks great! http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=106172&page=5

    Campaign/Player Surveys

    Thanks everyone- good advice all around. Thanks a ton to Piratecat- I'm yoinking your survey since it incorporates nearly everything I wanted to find out from my players. And the rest of that thread reminded me of some other questions I wanted to ask as well.

    Campaign/Player Surveys

    I'm running a campaign right now, and I think I'm at the point where I would like to get some feedback from my players. I'd rather it be anonymous type feedback (so that they can be honest and forthright about any opinions on the progress so far) so I'd like to give them a survey by email to...

    A simple sketch request

    Well... this Friday would be great, but I could delay the giving of the item to the player for another two or three weeks.

    A simple sketch request

    I posted this in another artist thread, but thought some others might see it out on the postings. I've been looking for someone to sketch something very simple (well, not for me, since I can barely draw a stick figure) for a game I am DM'ing. It isn't a character- but an object. However, I want...

    Bobacus- really like the artwork. Your art seems to convey alot of action, which I really like.

    IL, Chicago - Game Needed

    Joe, if you're interested in a lower-powered game our group has an opening for the Midnight campaign that I'm running the group through. The group is at 5th level right now and we're playing through a modified Crown of Shadows campaign. We play in the Grey's Lake area, which I profess to not...
