    Where do you buy books?

    I buy exclusively online because, well, I don't have a FLGS :(

    Landscape format cardboard DM screen?

    Thanks! I heard that it was out of print, but it seems it's finally available again! I'll consider getting it. :)

    Landscape format cardboard DM screen?

    I was afraid that was the case. I wonder if buying two of those at cheap prices and gluing them together would work... ? :p Unfortunately, I don't have a FLGS. My only option is to buy online :( And, what can I say, I like my screens to have pretty art on the players' side :)

    Landscape format cardboard DM screen?

    Does anyone knows if there was ever a cardboard landscape DM screen produced for 3.5? I really like the landscape format, but the Eberron screen that I have seems a bit flimsy, and I was looking for something like the cardboard screen for 4e, or the Pathfinder screen (but in landscape format).

    Dark Fantasy D&D webcomic, with a twist.

    Oh, boy. No afterlife? You're defying the very backbone of D&D's cosmology! You, heretic! :p

    Dark Fantasy D&D webcomic, with a twist.

    Great work! I really like the new style used for the background, and I'm looking forward to the next updates! :D

    Sons (and Daughters) of D20!

    I think these are just d20 settings, not derivative systems on their own (although they may present new rules).

    Dark Fantasy D&D webcomic, with a twist.

    I've been following your web comic for a while now, and find it very entertaining, with an intriguing storyline and interesting art. The only complain I have is the same as with other comics I read: I'd like more frequent updates! :p Seriously, good job so far. ;)

    Seeking comments regarding tweaked base classes (Fighter & Ranger)

    Oh, I've read about the general consensus regarding the fighter's shortcomings, and I've been shown enough evidence about that. :) But, like I said, my intention was not to make the fighter a balanced class against spellcasters, but a bit more interesting and balanced against other martial...

    Seeking comments regarding tweaked base classes (Fighter & Ranger)

    Thanks. I've checked the Project Phoenix fighter and it certainly does add a further level of customization. My intention with the changes I made to the fighter (though bland and weak ;)) was to add a kind of "template" to the base 3.5 fighter with optional abilities as generic as possible, so...

    Seeking comments regarding tweaked base classes (Fighter & Ranger)

    In preparation for a long overdue 3.5 campaign with my old gaming group, I started fiddling with the martial classes to make them more interesting. I'm not trying to "balance" martial and spellcasting classes - it's been been clearly pointed out by many people that have looked long and hard into...

    Enlightened Grognard: Reducing the Skill List

    I voted for the following: Balance, Escape Artist, Tumble → Acrobatics (new skill) Climb, Jump, Swim → Athletics (new skill) Disguise → Bluff Listen, Spot → Perception Hide → Stealth (although I think this one should include Move Silently, which was probably an oversight)

    Planescape: Torment on Wikipedia main page

    aboyd, since you seem to have quite the technical knowledge regarding PS:T, may I ask your help regarding an issue I had last time I tried to play it? My PC is by no means a cutting edge sample of technology, but it is quite above what was the norm back in 1999 :p I have an integrated nVidia...

    Detect Evil/Good... Metagaming?

    This is something like what I was aiming for when I mentioned limiting the spell/ability, but better expressed :) Those are all good suggestions, but they require the players to go through them to get the feeling of how things are going to be regarding alignment. I was thinking more about a...

    Detect Evil/Good... Metagaming?

    I was thinking about the whole alignment subject, and from there its relation to the game mechanics. There's no question that in D&D alignment plays a bigger part than just a suggestion on how to conduct your character, since there are a lot of spells that derive their effects on this quality...

    Questions regarding Downer's finale

    Well, this is not specifically an RPG question, but RPG-related, nonetheless :) I finally got around and bought the Downer: Wandering Monster compilation, so I could read the story from the beginning (I already had all the Dungeon issues that featured the "Fool's Errand" story arc). However...

    Would you like Maddman's Forgotten Realms?

    I would find it very interesting to try. Even more so if, as a player, I had any kind of "common knowledge" regarding the Realms. Imagine the surprise when you arrive to the mighty City of Splendors, Waterdeep, only to find that it is a corrupt, filth-filled, backstabbing port city, and the wise...

    Whatever happened to....?

    I would like to know that, as well. The Zogonia website has been dead for quite some time...

    Whatever happened to....?

    Dragon #359 stated that Carl Sargent had some kind of accident while traveling on the road during the mid-90s and nothing was ever heard of him again since then, but I would like to know if anyone around here has any other bit of information gathered since the time that article was published (2007).

    Interchangable class features

    Wasn't there a 3rd party product named "Buy The Numbers" or such like, that detailed a point-buy system for classes? Edit: Aha! Here it is! Maybe you can get some ideas out of it.
