    Gary Gygax co-written Unpublished Setting. Bonus Stretch Goal for Kickstarter!

    So they are holding to ransom an unpublished (co) work of Gary for 15k? That doesn't really sound that cool to me. Are you sure about that? To me it reads under pledge of $20 that you get 2 modules with a PDF and Print copy of each, plus a print copy of toolkit. Whch is a good deal still,

    One miiiilllliiiooon dollars!

    And now I failed my save further against confusion. I'll have to check my credit card reciept but I got via email "Your Payment to Giant in the Playground has succeeded" straight after pledging. Maybe I just got in with my pledge before it finnished.

    One miiiilllliiiooon dollars!

    You seem to be 100% correct. I pledged $14 and was charged straight away. Which means I understand even less of kick start than I thought but thats another topic. Thanks for the correction.

    One miiiilllliiiooon dollars!

    Awesome stuff. Even if only 10% of the pledges come through, that's a lot of cash incentive.

    disabling "New LinkBack to post" mails?

    Sure, no problems. I posted in the thread about 1st edition reprints. I got an email notifying about a new link back from Enworld. Not about a reply, but because someone used the linkback function I guess. Screen shots: Mail header - Different from message about new post in a thread...

    Was Thac0 really that bad?

    I'm always puzzled when people say Thac0 started with 2e. Maybe someone can clarify for me, but my 1st ed DMG with the monsters in the back (appendix E) has their To hit A.C 0 listed.

    I'm sorry, your character is too good

    I prefer to handle it out of game. I have no problems with broaching game issues as a group in a friendly manner. I feel handling that sort of stuff by secret in game means players ultimately distrust you as DM, as you're bending world design to fit an out of game objection you may of may not...

    disabling "New LinkBack to post" mails?

    Hopefully right place to ask. I am most likely blind, but how do I disable the emailed notifications for New LinkBack to post? I don't really care who links to enworld posts that I'm reading. I can't find it under Messaging & Notification in options.

    Non-North American Gamers who want to buy the 1e reprints, sound off!

    I'm expecting ebay gouging to be high. I'd love to be able to buy a set that didnt cost triple to get posted here.

    Battlefields versus the 5' dungeon.

    I often have a dungeon tile (you can make yourself easy enough) with minis as default marching order. Its often the shape of a corridor, so I just move it to the batte map in an appropriate place (eg doorway) and let the PCs move from there

    How do I give the Gift of Game?

    I'd start with the library. You want a public place where you don't need to worry about liability or issues with accusations if you are meeting unknown kids. IME schools are less likely to want untrained/uncleared staff running events. Here (Aus) it's almost mandorty everywhere working with...

    The Guards at the Gate Quote

    IMO The younger you are when you start playing, the less the actual rules bother you. Younger than ten can use the pictures and bolded headings just like I did :0

    The Guards at the Gate Quote

    But lots of games use interactions as red herrings and also to allow room for players to create interactions. On OP: The quote doesn't overly bother me, but I have the perception that WoTC take the easy approach to marketing by saying 'old way unfun, our new way better'. Saw it with minis when...

    AD&D 1E Thinking of bringing my 1e AD&D DMG to my 4e game.

    My DMG is just part of my 'kit'. I hardly reference books during play, but if I ever need to generate a twisted creature from the lower planes of chaos, it's there for me.

    If WotC Released D&D 3.75 Tomorrow....

    I think that the ship has sailed on a Wizards 3.75. Sailed, gotten to the wrong continent and back again. Insert dead parrot sketch here :) Their energy would be much better served making next version. Wizards doesn't really have to be number one if they did release 3.75 or even material...

    New Sci-Fantasy RPG from Joshua Frost

    Looks good, but I'm so unsure about kick starters. Nothing about this product.
