D&D is many versions, many modes, many styles of story-telling, many ways of being both a hero and a villain. There may be maps. There may be minis. There may be many rules or hardly any. There may be clear cut good guys or a million shades of grey. There may be magic everywhere or magic only...

No reason at all! I would love it if monster books had a half-dozen alternate names for every monster. That way, even tried and true beasties could be freshened up with a new name. Yes, I can come up with them on my own, but wouldn't be nice if that work was already taken care of for you...

In my perfect world, D&D entries for dinosaurs and similar beasts would have both. They would be listed under their actual names like 'Utahraptor' and then somewhere in the article, the author would give us a half-dozen common names that people actually living beside the beasts might call them...

I would note that definitive and best are two very different things. D&D (basic) --B2 Keep on the Borderlands D&D (expert) -- X1 Isle of Dread AD&D --T1-4; A1-4; G1-3; D1-3; Q1 This sequence is the first adventure path. And yes I realize that it was stitched together only retroactively...

No problem, Pauljathome. I'm glad you find it useful. Gary McBride Fire Mountain Games maker of Way of the Wicked -- an evil adventure path compatible with the Pathfinder RPG.

Actually, Alzarius, it is funny you should mention that. I am a gigantic fan of Planescape from 2nd edition. And so I do riff a little on lillends from that edition in Book Two: Call Forth Darkness. Gary McBride Fire Mountain Games

Dimetrodons are not dinosaurs, correct. There are pelycosaurs and are more closely related to mammals than true reptiles. And they did not live along side the dinosaurs. But I am still glad Paizo statted them up for Pathfinder. I understand the decision to lump them with dinosaurs. In...

I have run and played in both 4th Ed. and Pathfinder. There is no doubt in my mind that coming up with an adventure from scratch is easier in 4th edition. On the other hand, Pathfinder has simply fantastic pre-made adventures that completely eliminate this problem. The adventure paths...

Did someone say Dragon Empires? Amanandar=A western kingdom in the East; Stranger in a strange land plots go here Bachuan=Communist China/North Korea Chu Ye=Oni-land Darklands of Tian Xia=Underdark meets asian mythologies; Your kung-fu-hero-descends-into-hell plot goes here. Dtang...

It is better, I think, to realize what type of campaign is supposed to come from each land rather than trying to shoe-horn the various nations into a real world comparison. Absalom = A place for sprawling urban adventures; the city at the center of the world Alkenstar = The low-magic...
