Most of those are true, except for: -Actually, the 1e Bard was the prototype prestige class. The RC anti-paladin/paladin/druid were based on it. -The General Skills system as per my original post worked exactly like the NWP system, the only differences were the name and the fact that all skills...

I've heard of a theory floating around that the changes in 3rd Edition are based on the D&D Cyclopedia. This fundamentally rests on the more regular ability score chart and the skill system. Of course, this totally ignores the fact that Johnathan Tweet, co-author of Ars Magica, was involved in...

Probably the best was when I converted Dark Sun to 3.0, I had people across the country sending me e-mails about it (as well as my Gamma World to 3.0) and some friends of mine in another state used it before they realized who wrote it. The worst was my original Empire of the Petal Throne...

Okay, here we go... The first shelf was just fine. The unit on the other wall I took pictures of shelves 1-3 (including top) and 3-5. The unit in the closet was placed so all I could do was take a picture of a shelf at a time. A lot of the boxed sets are actually full of books themselves to...
