    What's with the sexy githyanki? Sexy? The githyanki doesn't fit with my definition sexy.

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hey Gary! I noticed the original version of S4 was titled "Lost Caverns of Tsojconth", the spelling of S4 being Tsojcanth. Tsojconth happens to be an anagram of "John Scott". Given your fondness of such, I was wondering if this anagram was intentional, and who John Scott might be, if this is...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    I almost certainly will make LGGC 4. I'll be rooming with Mr. Kask, unless current plans change. Ha! That's the angle I took! 3 members of the PC party were heirs of the Moathouse and surrounding area, and had come back to reclaim it!

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    You're killing me, man. I had planned on heading to Winterdark, but it wasn't in the cards. Now on to more niggling details of years gone by... :p A while back I was working up a back story for T1-4. According to the the module, the Temple of Elemental Evil itself was built up in a matter...

    Top 25 Sci-Fi movies/tv (1982-present)

    List like that are a horrible idea. They always bring forth the worst cases of Cheeto-huffing, knuckle-dragging, basement dwelling, "ZOMG! THEY ARE SOOOOO STUPID, THEY DON'T GET TEH AWESOMENESS"-spouting fanboys (not that there is any of it here), all ranting about how their favorite show...

    lorraine williams

    She said gamers were beneath her. That's enough to earn my scorn. Actually, if she would have said any group was beneath her, that would be enough for me. Please elaborate on her creative contributions. I think any success during her tenure was in spite of her, not because of her.

    When did ghouls become undead?

    Gary- In Conan the Conquerer right now, #9 in the Lancer/Ace chronological series, #12 in the original (Gnome press?) series, Conan encounters ghouls (by name) in a Zingarian forest along the Argossian border. ( I believe it's called the Forest of Ghouls, actually) The description closely...

    Once you go C&C, you never go back

    That's why I was careful to couch my response as an "at my table" point of view. Clearly, C&C is just what the Dr. ordered for many group, otherwise, there never would have been a second print of the PHB. I'm glad those groups have a system they like enough to get together with friends and...

    Once you go C&C, you never go back

    That isn't a product I'm interested in. Actually, I could mish-mash 3e and 1e on my own, but I prefer not too. I have actually spent some time pulling in some of the d20 mechanics into 1e AD&D, and it just didn't feel right to me and my group, so we decided the twain meeting was not a good...

    Once you go C&C, you never go back

    Yup. RQ2, specifically. I have Mongoose's version as well. Looking forward to Chaosium's new BRP book as well.

    Once you go C&C, you never go back

    Of course, I have a nice stack of OSRIC stuff on my shelf.

    Once you go C&C, you never go back

    Me. Why? I gave it a fair shake. Eight game sessions, and all of us at the table were like, "Why are we playing this instead of AD&D or 3.x?" In particular, I don't care for the SIEGE system. We have the old school D&D save system, and the d20 save system, both of which are serviceable...

    D&D 4E Lack of interst in posting since 4e announcement?

    Actually, the 4e stuff has increased my interest in ENW, which except for the Gygax threads, has largely been MIA for a few years. Garnfellow: you get my vote for best post of the month.

    Why I love gamers

    Or the early Arduin books? (I think Air Shark were in Chaosium's "All the World's Monsters" series as well.)

    Ha Ha! Kask taught me that trick after our Chainmail game this past summer at LGGC III, telling me he learned it from you. Any more secrets of military miniatures you wish to divulge? :lol:
