But what kind of BBEG would name himself "Nemisis Destiny"?... But I will name him "______ Destiny" in your honor.

LOST: Sad Orc :( , too-bright green, funky-fuzzy torso/shirt. He is a little rough around the edges but he is loved dearly. Acts tough but is relatively harmless. REWARD if found. I recently had to reinstall my Windows. I saved my entire C: drive to an external hard drive. I was able to...

Exactly. I just spent a couple hundred as well, filling my collection with most of the cheap D&D minis that I don't have yet - even ones that I'm not sure I'll use, just to have them in case. I then bought a handful of Mage Knight - wasn't too impressed with the sculpts; more cartoonish than I...

I just bought 5 Dreamblade "Mask Wearer"Dreamblade "Mask Wearer" minis that are pretty nice and might work very well.

Agree with your post and questions, but I don't think you'll/we'll find many or any very good alternatives. But I'll be watching this thread and hope to be proven wrong.

Actually, we paint our D&D minis all the time. Often we'll just add details, but sometimes we'll do wholesale changes. It's fun. I wouldn't be surprised to see us choosing PC metal minis and painting them sometime. But wholescale for all our minis (which is what we're used to), its too...

Where do you buy the standard D&D bases? Special glue? They they hold pretty secure?

double post

The Mage Knight and to-be LotR clix look like real possibilities... except for that dumb base. Are the bases the standard 1" model? I suppose the base could be painted black. Some people have attached other miniatures to D&D standard bases. Has anyone done either of these with these...

double-posted out of mini-death grief.

This is all rather depressing as I'm a new, but strongly converted mini-collector. I went out this past weekend and bought nearly 200 singles that I still wanted/needed. I want to get them before they dry out - which will actually take some time, but will eventually happen. My 9 y/o son loves...

Many WotC employees have said on their podcast or in interviews this year they love minis and that minis will continue.... So in that sense, I'm somewhat surprised. I *love* me some minis! I love buying them for my sons, too. I think Castle Ravenloft mini model will continue, but in smaller...

This is great. I'm now contemplating subscribing. I've been waiting for the ability to customize with my houserules. But now everything else I need is there - it is looking good and I might just go ahead...

When a player wants to attack with a non-standard attack (such as throwing the huge crocodile that he just killed towards at the on-rushing goblins), or comes up with an off-the-wall method to solve any problem - REWARD them by choosing favorable skill checks and/or damage rolls. Page 42 and...

Sorry my Japanese-based compatriot. I actually got them shipped to the states and had a friend bundle a lot of stuff together for me ($179 shipping for tons of stuff). I've now found bookdepository.com which will ship for FREE - I just got Castle Ravenloft, that huge f'n box, for $59! I know...

that's awesome! I need to find a way to point towards the end of this campaign b/c the school year is ending in Feb b/c this is for a school class... but this idea is good enough that I might try to find a way to do it.

bookdepository.com will ship them to Japan (or anywhere international) for free - that's what I'm doing in Korea and it's great.

I like your thinking there, but no, I'm not looking for anything too complex for various reasons. One of which is that this is their first game and it probably won't go on too much longer, thus making it more epic plot than their level suggests. We will be adding a couple students to this...

Great help everyone. To give you a little background: the players are students and first-time players, meaning they don't know any better. We will not be playing past heroic tier but I want to give them a dramatic storyline that feels epic to them. I'm making the world they live in far less...

from my quick searches, it sounds as if Mordenkainen's Magnificent Emporium will definitely include rare items but I wonder if it will also will include standard common magic items - does anyone know?
