    Dark Sun miniatures solutions

    Aren't a load of those images lifted straight from Paizo and WOTC ?

    Achievements?

    Why do we now have achievements? Is it just because the boards system supports them so it seemed like a good idea, or was there some demand or need for them from amongst teh user base?

    How can WoTC get new players buying Essentials?

    Slight sidetrack. Hypothetically, as an experienced gamer (1e to 3.5, Pathfinder, Cthulhu, WFRP, TRaveller etc) with no experience of 4e what are the best books to get to allow me to play 4e if the fancy takes me? Is it still the core 3 books or should I go Essentials via the Rules Compendium...

    How much $ per month do you spend on Gaming?

    $76-100'ish for me. Paizo subscriptions (AP, RPG, and Settings - although I'll be dropping RPG and Settings in the new year) and some occasional Dark Heresy books, and then occasional bargain minis (WH40K and DDM) and old AD&D stuff off ebay.

    How big is your RPG collection?

    Gargantuan. 700+ items I think. It just all adds up over time - what with D&D (various flavours - AD&D 1e & 2e (modules and boxed sets including Al Qadim, DL, Dark Sun, and Planescape etc), Dungeon magazine, Basic, Compendium, 3.5, FR, Eberrron, DL, D20 OGL, Pathfinder, Conan, AE, IH, Castles &...

    It's Almost the Season for WOTC layoff!

    Why is this tasteless? As far as I can see: 1. WOTC do traditionally have an annual round of pre Xmas layoffs 2. Everybody who works there must know this (as do we) 3. The factors listed in post 1 may make this year more interesting, or maybe not This situation not very pleasant for those who...

    Dragonlance Collector's Guide

    The TSR Archive already does this - it's not as thorough in identifying every product ever; but it does a pretty good job on core TSR products for most D&D/AD&D lines including Dragonlance. I think the site is on temporary hosting at present whilst being updated so it may move in time. I've...

    What does your ENWorld name mean?

    crazy_cat comes from what my daughter (very young at the time) used to call her favourite character in her favourite bedtime story. The Cat in the Hat, or the crazy cat as he was known. The underscore was initially there to make the ID work in systems that don't allow spaces in usernames, and...

    RPGs about the time of the Napoleonic Wars?

    You could try 'Beat to Quarters' and 'Duty and Honour' both by Omnihedron Games - the first as I've listed them models Hornblower and similar naval adventures, the second (which was actually released first) models Sharpe and similar adventuring in the army during the Napoleonic wars.

    I got a 7, but I used my biggest D20 and that counts for at least +2 extra :)

    Did WotC underestimate the Paizo effect on 4E?

    Now this I can agree with - personally i don't like 4e but as lots of other people do like it I've got no particular desire to see WOTC fail.

    Pathfinder 1E What's available (Golarion)

    Quick question for you if I may, since you're aslo in Cambridge. Where do you pick up your Pathfinder and Paizo stuff, is there anywhere local (or nearer than London or Mail order) that stocks their products? Personally, I subscribe to the AP, Chronicles, and RPG lines direct from Paizo - but...

    non-4e D&D Players . . .

    This. The game that is now D&D produced by WOTC and the 'D&D' I want to play are now very different things and are headed in different directions of development. Thanks, but no thanks, when it comes to D&D I'm happy with Pathfinder, my old 3.5 books, and various other OGL materials.

    Subscription levels dropping

    I wont be renewing my subscription - it will expire at the end of this month. Basically, I just don't find ENWorld offers anything of value any more that I'm actually prepared to pay for. I don't need more PMs, or a bigger signature, or mighty XP powers, or 4e materials in PDF - and I don't...

    What would WotC need to do to win back the disenchanted?

    I don't know about everybody else, but I've got a pretty busy weekend lined up so if somebody from WOTC could come round and cut the grass and do my garden that would be much appreciated :)

    No Dice <Nerd Rage>

    I'm not sure anybody is saying this. WOTC could possibly have got your e-mail address from a number of places - worrying about how they did and where from seems like a bit of a waste of time IMHO. Your one man boycott wont even be noticed by WOTC - but good luck with it. I would suggest...
