Yeah, I'm looking forward to that one. :)

Interesting. I loved the three far future seasons. It felt MORE like Star Trek to me. I was just sad that the seasons were so short and we didn’t get to see more of that far future.

I’ve got the tin can set that has two DVDs in each case. One DVD has a cropped version of the original theatrical release; the other DVD has the special edition version.

Yep. No, the issue is that it seems like the pharaoh’s ghost would just keep on walking non-stop, but the text says he arrives at the pyramid “the next evening”. That to me suggests a whole day of walking (or close to it). Con DC starts at 11. If you walk for 24 hours after you’ve already...

Oh yes! I’d forgotten about that!

New question about Pharaoh. The text seems to indicate that the PCs wander around aimlessly for two days before Amun Sa appears. He tells them his story then turns and starts walking toward his pyramid. It says he reaches the pyramid the following evening. Since he is a ghost and is more or less...

Eberron: Forge of the Artificer. It was supposed to come out last month, but a production error has delayed it to December. It’s designed to complement Rising from the Last War, not replace it, by updating dragonmarks, the artificer, Eberron species and such to the revised rules and providing...

The thing that irks me the most about the SE changes to IV are the CGI elements that are very obviously pasted onto the film. That and stuff like Greedo shooting first (and Han’s head moving unnaturally to “dodge” the blaster bolt) and the scene with Jabba where Han “steps on” Jabba’s tail...

I feel you! I really do. If I ever get the chance to run Curse of Strahd again, I intend to either ban all races with darkvision or make it so their darkvision is severely limited. That being said, I have found that the 5e rules around light still work fairly well. Darkvision turns darkness...

I didn’t like the idea of Eberron when it was new. I didn’t want robots and trains and magic guns in my medievalesque fantasy! But it has grown on me to the point that a) I am running an ongoing campaign set in Eberron now and b) I am fearful WotC is going to “ruin” the setting by modernizing...

OK so years ago, when 5e was still new, I was playing in a game where the DM gave us a magic item that was essentially a bag of Scrabble tiles. A spellcaster could draw a tile and then change one letter in the name of a spell using that letter. We were high level by that point, and the mage...

I’m not even familiar with Enemy Mine! I’d never heard of it before this thread.

OK, so that moon was mostly likely a 3D CGI set. And I guess it had a breathable atmosphere because the Metrons gave it one.

I liked SWSE's talent trees and feats approach. I had been hoping D&D 4e would go the same route. That's probably what I would do if I was writing 6e.

As someone who hasn't watched much of TOS, the derivativeness (derivations?) go over my head, so your #3 isn't an issue for me. However, as I've said before, I really am with you on the budget. I mean, you could really tell even just in the sparseness of the barren rock world set. I'm guessing...

Yes. IIRC GL's argument was that's how Anakin sees himself - as the young man he was before he got put in the suit. But I still think it was an unnecessary change. And I'm sure Anakin gets to have a Force ghost because he's the "Chosen One" and so didn't have to learn how to do it, but I still...

Cool. I've only read a handful of Star Wars novels over the years. The RotS novelization is the only one I own. (The rest I borrowed from the library.)
