I apologize for the noob question. I assume you did this is CCx. Where did you get the Dark Sun symbols, specifically for the cities? Is it in something from ProFantasy? Or did you make it? Just wondering as I might start a DS campaign and if so, I want to do some maps in CC3...

I think most of the 2E exalted books have been fantastic! They are that good. Immortal Sinners, which I haven't read, looks like an interesting read and idea for vampire. Slashers is good as well although I haven't read all of it. Infernals has been VERY good! Some very good ideas...

Hey! I liked both of those movies, Push and Jumper! I want more of them! :D edg

I think this is exactly what 4E does. It reduces the "monsters" (which includes NPCs) into the abilities that they would use in a fight and leaves the role playing up to the DM. Seems to me that that is what 1E tried to do as well, but not so well. However, as much as my group and I *do*...

I disagree for a couple of reasons. First, as Crothian said, it's not always feasible to play it. And even playing it, it sometimes takes several times playing it to find something that doesn't work as well. Second, though, is for me that's not as important as how much the book inspired...

I really like the ideas I have read here! Kudos to everyone as it has been inspiring. I think you will need to redo the vampire in some ways, as I don't think being hurt by sunlight OR shadow fits well with Athas. Shadow Giants exist, so there is no reason a vampire couldn't. In the end, a...

General: I want a review that tells me about the book in question. This should include general factual information (page count, chapter headings or subjects covered, art, fluff vs crunch, etc.) and then should go into the reviewer's opinion of the book. This should include things like overall...

I got the PH for Christmas back in the day, so didn't pay for that. I had tons of paper and pencils from school, so didn't need to get those. I do remember buying a pack of modules, something like 4 of them for $15 or so at Toys R Us. I was so excited! I read them all and loved them. I...

They are a shared hallucination to any who take the drug. edg

This was a very good comic book. (That's what Butcher calls it so I think I can as well.) It was like a short story and it was good. I recommend it if you like Butcher. I don't know if I will be getting Storm Front, as that particular story was done in the book, the TV show and we have the...

Yeah . . . I don't know why they bought the rights to Max Payne. It wasn't Max Payne. It wasn't bad, if you like Wahlburg, but it wasn't great, either. It was a typical cop show, really. But it wasn't Max Payne. edg

I was a HUGE fan back in '83 or so? There was a used book store in the mall, literally a store in the corner. As in, no store there and they put up diagonally wall and had a used book store. I found the series there and they had a lot. They were only a dollar a piece and I must have read one...

I use a DM screen but it's off to the side for the information it holds. I roll everything in front of the players. I also use a laptop but one player can usually see it pretty well. My notes are usually in my head. I wasn't sure how to vote so I didn't but that's what I do. edg

Main (weekly) group: This group has been together for six years, ever since I moved to town. However, one of the guys in the group and I have been gaming together for 18 years. All male, 25, 31, 36, 38, 38, 42, Technical Support, Programmer, Programmer, Manager Tech Support, (Professional)...

I am quite excited about the fact that it's been that well received here. And I also think it's quite telling how well it's done in this poll. edg

I voted best of them all. I like the change in emphasis from wargaming to fun. I like the ideas about using skills and making sure if you players are finding something too hard, like a puzzle or a riddle, that you help them out. Again, if it detracts from the fun, try something else! I...

:) That assumes for the movie that I want a new story. The game was released long enough ago that it looks dated, including the cut scenes. I was very excited about seeing this done verbatim, because I think it was that well written and I would like to see the cut scenes with real people...

I am getting sick of Hollywood deciding that they want to adapt something to the big screen AND that it needs to be "improved." They had their script in the Max Payne game. It was all there. Why mess with success? *sigh* edg

Um wow. I thought Vincent Ventresca would be a better fit for Max, in terms of looks. And voice, really. And I played the game a lot and don't remember the angels. Lots of "demons" but no "real" ones. I am now a bit skeptical but still hopeful. edg

Well, to be the broken record. Definitely need more than one encounter per day. Probably more like three, assuming the overall situation warrants it. What I mean is, if they are resting between adventures, no fights but during it and when they are in a "danger zone" have fights. There...
