    Help! I have too many players!

    I have a good bit of experience with this, and can offer some practical advice. While I was in grad school I was usually running 2 games at a time. The regular game for the for classmates, and and the "community outreach" game which included visiting high school students and soldiers from the...

    Georgia: Dublin, Sandersville, Swainsboro area

    Economically displaced grad student back on family farm pending recession seeks gamers in the thickest, most fiery region of the rural bible belt for clandestine sessions of "Satan's Game" or similar diversions. I can GM but cannot host. Willing to teach the game, but not to minors (I don't...

    Video file that chages screen settings when played???

    I tried playing a wma file and it changed my monitor color and resolution settings. It blasted the color back to 16, and blew up the screen so far that the program task bar was about a foot under my desk. It stayed that way even after I killed the vid player. I had to restart the computer to...

    Att: WotC - Replacing PDF's

    This is striking me as very strange. Just the suggestion that tabletop gamers would want to pay subscription fees for game rules that are only accessible online.... So you could only game where you have internet, and multiple connections, and 1 computer per player.... Why should we have to...

    Missing maps: Saltmarsh and Reptile God.

    As for the original request, I withdraw it, as I have now located the missing maps. While searching for a 3ed conversion of N1 for use as a reference while running my copy of the module, I stumbled upon a Fantasy Hero conversion that had the original maps attached, as well as a similar...

    Missing maps: Saltmarsh and Reptile God.

    Thanks, It would be really cool if I could get a scan, assuming you find it... I've been looking around with google (never know), and I've seen a few conversions of these mods floating around for NeverWinterNights. I don't have NWN. Would it be possible to grab a screen shot of the converted...

    Missing maps: Saltmarsh and Reptile God.

    I'm prepping a champaign, coastal swamp setting, and to my horror, I have discovered that my copy of Against The Cult of the Reptile God is missing all of it's interior maps are missing. (Golden Grain Inn, Temple of Merikka, Inn of the Slumbering Serpent, and of course, the dungeon) The game...

    Upstairs for NeMoran's Vault?

    Just my luck that my copy of Saltmarsh is missing the maps! I'm reading Mistmore right now. I'm also considering BleedingEdge Adventures #1, and the mansion from the solo thief module in Dungeon #11. I'll probably just take the map I like, krib room descriptions liberally, and restock to fit...

    Upstairs for NeMoran's Vault?

    No, a module is what I am looking for, though if nothing else works the Haunted house map will work. I don't think that Morrick fits the bill. 2 adventures with a cursed/tainted water supply plot would probably confuse the players too much....and the range on the Morrick curse would also mess...

    mob = free magic items?

    What level is the kid? This sounds like a good plot hook for a map to THE FORGE OF FURY (lev 5 i think?) or some other module likely to contain a cool sword to turn up at the party.

    Upstairs for NeMoran's Vault?

    I don't believe it to be a major spoiler that the 3e "starter" module NeMoran's Vualt by Firey Dragon takes place in an underground vault beneath a deserted mansion. This vault holds the famly crypt, amongst other things, and this crypt has been well sealed for 40 years. I've often thought...

    Deeds not Words. Where can I find it?

    I read the review of Deeds not Words some time ago, and would like to obtain a copy. The review does not link to the product, which now seems to be abandonware. Anybody know where i can get a copy?

    EN World New GMs, players, read the first post in this thread! (updated 5/21)

    Reciprocal Solo games I had worked out with someone to do a reciprocal dm situation where each of us would run a solo game for the other. My partner seems to have dropped out. Each of us was to control a party of 5, either 1 third level PC and 4 First, or 2 second level and 3 first. My...

    Level 8 party defeats 30 level 6 fighters?

    They "Burned the town to the ground"...and..."are building a new keep". So the bad guys are in TENTS!!!??? You have bags of holding and access to the fly spell. Find a source of rocks and you win. Night attack dive bomb the fanciest tent, upending (and turning inside out for good measure)...

    gnome mafia. "the game"

    "I also like the idea of Gnomes as highly conniving individuals. I might lift that for my own setting about gnomes. Very nice." -Well, they are the race famous for illusions, and most illusions are not magical. Also, part of this came from the way Ebberon and a another setting (forget the name)...

    gnome mafia. "the game"

    The following is an extended character background that I wrote for a prospective play by post. I wanted to run a "fixer" for a semi-legal gnome trading outfit. The GM asked for details about the outfit....I apparently have too much time on my hands. For everyone's amusement: (parts about...

    Actually, my guess is that the "greater undead" relative is the material component or focus of the epic spell.

    Great GrandDaddy Black Dracolich: "Hello Elf. I'm the potentially vengeful family member you didn't think of." Count Black Dracula: "And I'm the Other One!" High Druid Ad Hoc Committee on Unnatural Extinction Prevention: "May we have a word?" I also wonder if V just wiped out the...

    Fighters didn't matter after 11th level?

    The most important guy in the band is the guy with the van. Yeah, you can play local gigs without him, and you COULD get bus tickets, but nothing beats freedom of movement. That way you can ditch the gig if you get there and don't like the venue, even if you did just travel 120 miles to get...

    Atlas Games' Penumbra D20 Scenarios: Are They Any Good?

    I checked the ones that I've personally used or perused. The main thing to understand about the tone of these products, is that they are perfectly willing to allow bad things to happen to PCs and even campaign worlds. They are sort of "old school" in a way. As a GM, you will have to decide if...
