    Hexes NOT Squares?

    A person in a diagonally adjacent square is about 7.071068 feet away (5 times the square root of 2). A person in a "diagonally adjacent" hex is about 8 feet away (I'm not sure of the formula to determine the exact distance, not being keen on my trig functions, but I measured on my D&D hex grid...

    Inventory Manager

    I use an Excel sheet for item tracking for my PCs, and when I run games I use it to track details of party items by putting those details in comment tags. I don't think you really need to get into other methods, especially if they cost money.

    [Helios Rising] Last Chance for Pre-Order Special

    Huh. For some reason, I thought that was posted today. Wasn't today supposed to be the last day of that sale, anyway? I was looking forward to my paycheck today for exactly that reason. The sale's still listed on the front page of your website... still waiting for a confirmation email to see...

    Done and done! Can't wait for that shipment to arrive. I'll be drooling over the PDF in the meantime. :D

    Eric Noah's Info

    I'm not too worried. If 4E is something I don't like (I consider this the most likely outcome), I won't play it, but hopefully the RPG market will stay alive and all those teenagers will like their game. I can keep playing my 3E regardless of what happens, so let the dice fall as they may...

    Silly House Rules

    Right, I forgot to point that out previously. That's a significant difference. Still, a 7-foot bugbear's armour would have to be refitted for the average human.

    Random Wilderness Encounters - How do you use them?

    Well, Korgan was a Fighter rather than a Barbarian (I think that was a mistake given his personality), but the rest of that "randomly rolled situation" matches up with his side-quest in Baldur's Gate II.

    Casters, are the fort saves on most monsters too high?

    On another note, I should point out that Elements of Magic - Revised Edition does not have save-or-die spells. If you want to kill things with a wave of your hand, deal a lot of damage. I'm finding reducing monster hit dice and giving them natural Damage Reduction instead of natural armour to...

    Casters, are the fort saves on most monsters too high?

    The problem is that in order for Colossal monsters to be represented by the current ruleset, they have to have scores of hit dice. If some of the mechanics related to size and HD were retooled, the saves and attack bonuses would no longer be ridiculous.

    Pledge of Tyranny (updated November 13)

    This is what I like to see. :D Thanks for your compliment! I was going to update tonight but am getting sick, and I don't enjoy writing puzzles when that happens. :( Hopefully I'll get better before work this morning, and I'll probably write the update on my lunch and upload it after work.

    Silly House Rules

    All valid points, except for one. Just because one or two people do it, that doesn't make everyone required to. I have an "open door policy" on 3rd-party stuff. Bring it into me and tell me who wrote it, and I'll look it over and approve or veto it, even if it was written by the player. I'm...

    Getting Faster?

    There's usually a good deal on RAM at CompUSA, and you could probably get a good price at the Best Buy up there. I've noticed a definite speed increase. The only problem I seem to have is with ads through ad.doubleclick.net, since my ISP blocks them and it sometimes makes the whole page...
