No problem, this is fun! I like the idea of running across the wood medusa first. If you go with the green wood weakness that means you're providing the characters with a way to possibly change the Walker, but you're not just sending them on a side quest. If they don't think of the medusa...

After the party advances deep into the dark and unnaturally quiet forest they encounter Itana, who seems confused and disoriented. She remembers a battle, then nothing, then waking up in this new body. In her initial panic at having foor hooves and a tail she bolted blindly from the location...

I usually count on my players trying to break the plan, and so the adventure may look railroady in one direction when in fact I've planned for the rebellion and am ready for them to go the other way. Many times if they go along with the "railroad" I wind up winging it. :) I have played with a...

That was an OK one. It started oddly, made me feel like I had missed a strip.

Cause yer know we can't be having anything rated ARRRRRRRRR!

So long as it ain't Ice Pirates, methinks yer sailin' fore the wind!

Sure, I'd love to get them, and thanks! matchstick_kev AT hotmail DOT COM

Even better, just configure the router so that it'll only let the DM out, as he's the only person that might need to hit the internet. Really any router with security on it will be in that configuration by default anyway. Just don't give the players the key. About the only thing I can think...

I agree. Most of the situations I've been in like this as a player the tactical retreat was felt to be unwise because of a similar situation to the dragon example up above. And really, if you feel like you're going to either die running or die fighting, I'd go with the latter. The only thing...

Wow. I've always thought that would be a cool way to go, but I never knew someone was actually doing it. What do you use? The first times you ran with the recorder were people uncomfortable? Thanks!

I think you will to kind of adjust to your group, I know I do. I usually play with people that are similar to the people you play with so there are very few voices/accents around the table. But when I go to GenCon and play at a table of people that are using voices (Halfling Musketeers!) I...

I'll second the recommendation for the Iron Heroes battlebox. It might be the best addon I've ever purchased, and at a darn amazing price. I kind of wish I had looked more at the other ones that were at GenCon now.

This reminds me. If any of this stuff is referring to something other than base D20 Modern please let me know, I'm not familiar with any expansion stuff for D20M. Is Psitech something like that? Is there a good spot I can go to learn about D20M and it's expansions? EDIT: Found Masada's link...

Would that be this? http://www.amazon.com/-Bureau-13-Sourcebook/dp/080956257X/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_k2a_3_txt/104-5584637-7706366?ie=UTF8 I had no idea they were talking about releasing rules again. Heck, there's a couple B13 books up there I haven't read, and that I'm going to order right away...

This would be a one shot convention type adventure. There's really not a way I can see that it would grow into a campaign. Your recommendation would be D20M with Urban Arcana if I'm understanding you correctly. Thanks for the thoughts, hopefully others will chime in.

Well I just came up here to ask about a specific setting, and what would be most appropriate for that setting, so I'll try appending to this thread looking for that advice. I'm thinking about running a one shot starring a group from Bureau 13 (remember them?). I'm looking at high modern...

They've already said that an upgrade to the next version will be free for current users. Also, they have posted some information on the next version (2.0). http://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4783

That's a great extension of the "Less is More" parameter Henry, thanks! I hadn't really thought about it in that light, but most likely this wouldn't effect the game in any huge way, but the players would have less to worry about. Great points.

For the most part I don't do any of the paid games. They seem much more variable in quality than the EN games that I sign up for (and I think most of the really positive comments you read on this board about games are about EN games). I'm also wary of gaming with strangers, but comfortable...

That was what I was thinking about too. IH is certainly more complicated than straight up D&D, but I think that an emphasis on the theatrical action might lend itself well to a con game. I was thinking about the demo game that I had played last year, and how they had a sheet that listed all...
