Eisenhorn? I'm down for Eisenhorn. Or something Rogue Trader-ish. If this just tries to glorify Space Marines to sell plastic I'm out.

Well, I'm still here at EN World, so yeah pretty much.

I know the feeling. I've drifted from RPG playing (still pick up books too read) just due to time. Doing more tabletop wargaming & mini painting, so I guess I've drifted to D&D's roots ... lends itself better to episodic availability.

Hey, it's the Epic Librarian! Great to hear from you dude! What do you think about what the little 3E news site you started has become?

It's Dragonlance. So ... problematic.

You didn't come to that conclusion after the first series of time-travelling Tasselhof? It took two?

Oh, man. Lost one of the good ones.

Why does Dial of Destiny suggest a magical bar of soap?

I favor "People" (as in : "The Free Peoples of Central Earth"). But not on the poll, so would take Ancestry or Heritage. Or, you know, Elf, Dwarf, and Halfling classes. Though you have to rename the last two since they define themselves in relation to humans, which is specist.

Thanks, great review. Moves the book from "hard no" to "maybe on sale" and board game from "maybe yes" to "no" for me!

Removal of race: good. Species? Meh. Give me ancestry or heritage -- or even "people"; species causes me to ask questions about interbreeding and biology and I really dno't want to deal with that in my fantasy game. Of course, now we need to deal with specist terms like dwarf or halfling ...

Man, so many choices! Kender, tinker gnomes, gully dwarves, that weird monkey race from Spelljammer, can't forget nilbogs ... I do think Krynn wins the race to the bottom, though.

Minus a good margarita (not doing a Mexican-themed Thanksgiving this year), I guess I'd go for a basic Dr. Daniels ... Jack Daniels and Dr. Pepper.

So what's your Thanksgiving/gaming crossover? Is there an adventure that's ideal for a turkey-day one shot, like Ravenloft is for Halloween? Maybe Dragonlance ... dragons are just big turkeys, right? Canadian Thanksgiving POVs welcome!

This was even a question? I must have been living under a rock since 1985 ... always assumed they were the same critter by different names. Like Lolth and Lloth.

This is the great thing about my print Dragon and Dungeon collection -- I just checked and they haven't been deleted.

Yeah, the BBC radio plays are great. The Andy Serkis audiobook reading is also exceptional (how can that man do so many voices and accents, and keep them consistent?). It has one downside to me. He sings ever one of Tom Bombadil's lines of dialog. Sings. Tom Bombadil is a prat at the best of...

Yeah, I 100% agree. Tolkien was picky, and if he never thought his work was worthy of publication, just because his son slapped some drafts together into a "book" doesn't mean that's what the Professor would have wanted. So I look at the Silmarillion and other later collected material as what...

I don't have the proper clearance for a new edition of Paranoia. I'll just report to the disintegration chamber now.

Vecna's still looking for his head; I'm sure that will eventually be addressed in a future adventure.
