I'm of the same mind. And to be clear I wasn't knocking NWN at all, I just don't consider it to be a virtual tabletop. I don't think Virtual Reality is the next step in RPG play. I think it'll be a step at some point far far in the future (could be the Lawnmower Man method, or the Dream Park...

I agree. I don't consider Neverwinter to be a virtual tabletop though. The limitations of the game and its graphics constitute limitations that have to be placed on any DM'd game within that program, and limitations don't fit in my definition of D&D. You can't use any monster you want, in any...

I would make such a drive as well, thus my expressed preference for actually sitting around a table with my friends. But when real life spreads those friends across the country something has to give. I had to choose between finding a different "tabletop" or finding different friends. I chose...

And yet, should you or someone in your group of friends move away, you wouldn't try online gaming to stay in touch with them? To keep them in the game? Completely agree. I really believe this is one major direction that RPG's are going to go. It makes too much sense as the interent becomes...

"Me too" That's a great way to descibe it, comparing in person to telephone. Sure, given the choice I would choose tabletop, but using Teamspeak V0IP and Fantasy Grounds means that I can get together and game with my friends cross country more than once a year at GenCon. Games are fairly easy...

I'll tell you what I think, but you'll have to highlight to see it.

I've gone the past two years and had a great time. I've played mostly in ENWorld games, they're a great way to meet other members and I think the game quality is very high. I also meet a bunch of non-ENWorld friends at Gen Con so I don't get to do a lot of ENWorlding outside of the games...

I think you probably can't lose here. Though I've no experience with Conan I've heard that it's very good. And I think IH is very good as well. As Chancellor Ridcully indicated, I don't think you really have to worry about the magic system if it's only going to get used by NPC's. In fact I...

Why does every priest have to use a Bless spell? Can't you be a priest that grants a follower great strength (or siphons it from enemies)? Or grants a follower a glowing sphere of protection (or whatever Mage Armor does)? The Shield spell, Burning hands, Summon Monster, Endure Elements...

I voted Jacobs, but not all of him. Just maybe a leg. Why? (Say it with me) "An editor that good you don't eat all at once!"

In such a country there wouldn't be a great need for a standing army, can you imagine what their militia would be like after attracting civilians/nobles that are mostly current or ex-adventurers? So they wouldn't need the taxes for the army. And for safe? Cripes just let any beastie poke it's...

Hmmmm. What if the ruler of the kingdom controlled access to a great place for adventuring? In the palace there's a portal that can oly be activated by the king, it's a portal to the Elemental Plain of Challenging (but probably not deadly) Wealthy Wandering Monsters. Adventuring groups get...

I think what Darklone is saying is that on his turn, as his very last action, as a free action, he pulls an arrow from his quiver and holds it. Thus giving him a weapon to make AoO's with. In other words, what Darklone is doing isn't in "response" to an AoO, it's "preparing for the...

Save the Librarian, save the world.

D20 Modern, Bureau 13. The holiday spirit has disappeared, and only Santa knows what the container it's in looks like. The Bureau team will have to rescue Santa from a group of human sized (and defective) Ken dolls, then figure out a way for the unconscious (and emaciated from lack of spirit)...

Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha! That is simply comedy GOLD! :lol:

Let me envision my RPG life without ENWorld... - I would not have gone back to GenCon after so many years, nor would have played in the excellent games ENWorlders have run over the last couple years. - I would not have run adventures for, or played the D&D boardgame with my young daughters...

We had a group that was: Sorcerer Wizard Bard and 3 Monks. It was very fun. We ambushed a lot, and took advantage as much as we could of the Monks' speed. That party was a result of everyone creating the characters they wanted to play, without consulting any of the other players (a...

I think that was in this latest patch, 1.03. I now have a button that will equip a weapon and a shield with one push, and they've also added that hitting the button again will unequip the items.

I don't have any problems seeing a cheerleader class in an MiB style campaign, it seems to me like it would fit right in. I'm running a Bureau 13 campaign and I would have zero problems working in cheerleaders or goths as heroes or villains. In fact I think both are excellent ideas.
