    Small Party Gamma World

    If you are doing 4th ed Gamma World, prep multiple characters in advance. It's deadly, and with little healing. Some creatures are extremely deadly for their level. I'd almost recommend each player playing two characters at once if they can handle it. I ran the starter adventure for a...

    Magic item powers with no duration?

    I don't think I've come across a specific limit, but for an item like this either of the above could be argued, or simply require it be re-attuned every day.

    So I just read The Stand by Stephen King

    I need to catch up on his more recent work, I've lagged since finishing the Darktower series. The first SK novel I read, and still a favorite is The Dark Half. Picked it up when I was 12 so many years ago, and he is still one of my favorite authors. List of other favs already mentioned, IT...

    Out of print SF books coming as eBooks

    SF Gateway puts tons of out-of-print SF classics online as e-books This looks like it has promise. No mention on cost of the books, but I hope it'll be reasonable. Might be able to pick up some classics I've never read.

    2011 PC Bodycount Thread

    Last week, running P1 King of the Trollhaunt, our party druid, built like a striker, with some controller aspects was in the thick of things. Alas, between undead trolls, and ranged casters the PC was dropped to negatives. Alas, the party healer, a dwarven shaman, had previously been dropped...

    5e Sneak Preview

    I was just coming here to post this. Also seems to have a pretty decent creative pedigree. More info from Kotaku.com Magic: The Gathering's Creator Is Working on a Video Game (about Cards!)

    "He's beyond my healing ability..."

    I've always liked the idea that all healing derives from the bodies natural reserves to make one whole. Magical healing only speeds up the process an incredible amount. If the NPC's body is beyond this limit, the healing might even kill him outright. But it all depends on campaign setting...

    Making an adventure whole-cloth out of a novel?

    Converting a Novel to an RPG adventure is like any media format conversion. Whether, novel to Movie, or Movie to TV and so on. Nothing directly translates 1 to 1, but you take the best bits that fit, and find the ideas behind the story and put them into the new framework as best as one can...

    [Trailer] Torchwood: Miracle Day

    'Original Show' for STARZ means they've ponied up the money to create this season of it, or at least a rather large portion of the budget. As it was dead in the water on the BBC. We all know that Torchwood has a history of previous seasons, but those watching STARZ may not. Pretty much...

    Animals with Class levels? RAW help

    I think it requires the awaken spell. Although my experience was in 3.5 when a friend played an awakened Panther, former friend of a druid who passed on.

    Suggestions for a unicorn name?

    You could use the names from the recent reboot of My Little Pony. I'm sure there would be some that would be appropriate. Update to include link to Wikipedia article with details http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Little_Pony_Friendship_is_Magic

    Should this be fixed

    I just hope the party is keeping a tab that the Dwarf keeps running up. Sounds like some interesting items to give as treasure. And although the Church seems to have a kill evil on sight, the world you're playing in recognizes that Necromancy isn't inherently evil.. .. so perhaps a chat...

    The CB is still crappy

    Speaking of the new versus old character builder. Has anyone seen, or tried themselves to figure out a way to pass the dnd4e file to the older builders standalone character sheet viewer program. The Classic/Original character builder called the viewer, and passed the file to it somehow, just...

    Barb and Jolly Blackburn of Kenzer...

    My sincerest condolences. Losing a loved one is never easy. I hope re-posting the empty chair eulogy here is appropriate. The Empty Chair

    Free Copy of Mass Effect 2 (no piracy required!)

    It would be nice if there was an alternative for those of us who've bought Mass Effect 2 already... sigh. Access to a DLC pack of choice would be nice. Darn.

    Polearms Quiz - how'd you do?

    Got 9 out of the 22. Mostly guessing, a few I recognized, but only partially. So I'm pleasantly surprised.

    Song of Ice and Fire - Official Book 5 Pub Date!

    Taiwan News catches up with one of their wacky CGI videos. George R.R. Martin (and his dancing ghost) get the zany Taiwanese news treatment I love these things.
