    New review of the Book of Erotic Fantasy

    EDIT: Self-moderated. I think my post was a little on the rude side. Sorry!

    One kingdom protecting another sovereign kingdom - does this make sense?

    I actually thought of the similarity to LotR after I posted. I forgot about the similarity to Kalamar though. Do you guys think it is similar in a bad way? I really like all of those ideas Darklone. That's great stuff!

    New review of the Book of Erotic Fantasy

    It's interesting to take a look back at this thread and notice the precise post at which it turns from people discussing the BoEF pro or con and into vituperative personal flames against other posters wherein the poster tells other people how to think and what not to say. Sometimes I think it's...

    One kingdom protecting another sovereign kingdom - does this make sense?

    You guys are such fantastic help! I agree that there should be no central authority in the Northlands. The area can also serve as a buffer state between Bressia (thus the Empire) and the real barbaric lands further north. I've got some other ideas to add into it now that I think will make the...

    One kingdom protecting another sovereign kingdom - does this make sense?

    I was hoping to get some input on my homebrew regarding an area that I've been trying to work out and an idea I had - for now I'll call it the Northlands in this post. The Northlands are bordered by the kingdom of Bressia. Bressian cavalry is famed across the world. Bressia is also a vassal...

    (OT Food) I nee a pasta sauce for tonight!

    Cilantro, garlic, salt/pepper, and a bit of lime juice are good additions. Also, you don't really need to peel the tomatos, but you do need to clean out all the seeds and excess fluid. If you like it smooth you can run it through a cuisinart/blender. About tomato recipes, you might also want...

    Groups of monsters

    Here are some collective nouns to work from: http://rinkworks.com/words/collective.shtml I've always a murder of crows. Who gets that title of dubious distinction? I like a murder of cloakers, since they seem to lurk and kill in the night like an imagined murderer.

    Groups of monsters

    That one makes me groan so loudly that I have to run...run so far away...to get away from you.

    I'm afraid we've suffered a loss

    I'm sorry to hear that Ted has passed on and I'm sorry to hear from your loss. I hope you can celebrate with happiness the great friend you've had and, looking back, think of all the fond memories. It sounds like you were lucky to have him in your life.

    The Riddle of Steel RPG

    Yeah. Combat is brutal. That's why you've got to stack the odds - play smart. :)

    The Riddle of Steel RPG

    First, it isn't limited to High/Late Renaissance at all, even though it supports it. There's nothing missing if you wanted to run it in a medieval period, you would just ignore the rapiers and plate armor - just like you would need to do with D&D. Second, there's nothing about the system that...

    The New Yorker - How Politics Were In The Late 18th Century

    Yikes...the things some people get themselves into! I'm looking forward to more. Sounds like great inspiration for tangled plot weaving and I can only imagine that it will get more convoluted with what's already come.

    Serious Mucking With The Standard Game Options: Advice?

    One way to address the healing issue is to use wounds and vitality instead of hit points. Also, one thing you could do to add variety to the human cultures, with little work required, is to give each culture a few cultural skills. So, for example, a nomadic horse barbarian culture might have...

    [True Story] And darn scary

    If your car is prone toward breaking down, or you are prone toward leaving your lights on, keys locked in the car, etc. you might want to consider a AAA membership for peace of mind. :)

    What would a "fairy-tale" setting be like?

    I've always thought a campaign that capture the essence of Ridley Scott's movie Legend would be fantastic.

    Deep Water and Shoals II

    Vemuz releases the elf and pushes him forcefully (and begrudgingly) in the direction opposite the direction he had thrown his weapons. Vemuz then begins a long, drawn out, process of removing his bow and a large number of axes from various parts of his person, grinning as he drops each to...

    The Vin Diesel Interview on Conan (now with transcript)

    I think it was funny too and it all seemed in good fun. I bet Conan played when he was younger too. He reeks of D&D.
