Personally, I dislike the term "gish" and I tend to use words like "warmage", "spellsword", "blademage", and the elven "bladesinger" to describe that kind of concept. These make more sense to me, they are evocative and flavorful, they conjure specific images that I can utilize to aid players in...

I never heard of the term until a few months ago, and it sounded stupid then (as it still does now.) Apparently it not only means Fighter/Mage, but a specific kind of Fighter/Mage, and not just any class build of that type. I barely recall that it is associated with Githyanki, and since I have...

In my campaign, I envision it as such: As the caster reads the spell off, whether holding the scroll or having it float in front of them (all visual effects, it still occupies one hand to do either), the letters glow, enlarge slightly and vanish as their energies are released, causing a nimbus...

Count me in the group that is excited about the OGL release of Traveller! Yay! With Regards, Flynn

Politically Correct Seasons Greetings One of my favorites... Seriously, I wish you all a Happy Yule, Merry Solstice, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa or whatever other holiday you choose to honor, so given in the spirit of love, peace and good will. Oh, and may the coming New...

This thread needs a humor tag on it, because I think the subject has been beaten to death. If it were a horse, there'd be a smoking set of horseshoes where the dead horse was ridden so hard into the ground that even the hooves are gone. I'm pretty sure we all know the official pronunciation...

Yes, for the arrow trap, you are quite correct. Forgive, as I am new to Savage Worlds and am still learning. :) The magic system is working out quite well, but be prepared not to have the diversity you may be used to with D&D. That being said, you can generally translate the big attack/combat...

Good Morning, All: Due to some last minute work issues, I had to skip last week's game. Fortunately, I was able to pick back up with the campaign last session. Overall, the session was mostly roleplay oriented, but I got to drop a lot of background stuff of the players so that they could get a...

I think I could do a Tuesday arrival date, if it would help get some good game on before the Con... I'm probably still coming back on Sunday, though, unless I'm rolling in a lot more money than I'm planning on having. So, what's this about an ENWorld Con? Will there be one here in the US, or...

Druids Capped With Wreaths Of Holly (sung to the tune of Deck the Halls) Druids capped with wreaths of holly, Fa la la la la, la la la la. Loggers tread at their own folly, Fa la la la la, la la la la. Don we now our slay apparel, Fa la la, la la la, la la la. Kill them all and sing this...

Away In A Dungeon (sung to the tune of Away In A Manger) Away in a dungeon, In a chest made of lead, The undead Lord Risus Laid still as if dead. The brave band of heroes Looked down where he lay, The undead Lord Risus Was all set to slay. When suddenly the earth moves, It quivers and...

I'll be going, unless something radical happens. I already have the time off, and am putting money away each month in preparation. Definitely looking forward to seeing people from the boards while I'm there, and hopefully getting in a game or two. :) See Ya There, Flynn

Technically, by their rules and according to their customer service when asked specifically about this, Lulu does not find the practice of publishing someone else's copyrighted materials legal or acceptable, even for private projects. However, truth be told, Lulu is unable to monitor for it, and...

Nice! If I didn't already have both dragons, I'd be getting them this year for the Holidays. That's a good offer, I think. With Regards, Flynn

You're too kind, my friend, too kind... :D With Regards, Flynn

Exactly. I knew the details from my notes, so I didn't even translate that part of the stat block. It stands to reason that, since certain portions are not game mechanic-related, they would translate across the board equally assuming the costs are the same in the milieu as they would be under...

I have plans to eventually convert the two-car garage into a game room if we don't move into a house with a reserved game room, so I feel your pain, Wulf. :) When I start that project, there will definitely be another thread, but that's a few years down the road. With Regards, Flynn

:) I can see your point, but I have to admit that I went with it because of the name recognition I had built up over here on the ENWorld thread where we had been discussing it over the last few months. If you have the chance to check Fantasy Concepts out, please let me know what you think...

Gneech, You might consider checking out Fantasy Concepts for anything you could use for your conversion efforts. I've already done a lot of OGL work to bring Saga-inspired material into usable and releasable Open Game Content, if it helps. Contact me offline if you have any questions. Just...

Ape-men, rock apes, girallon, and other killer primates are a good addition to a prehistoric jungle scene. Add in killer plants of various kinds, some monstrous spiders (colored emerald green and called jungle spiders for flavor), and an aboriginal tribe or two, and you've got yourself a great...
