    If I like D&D and LotR....

    I'll second this one. If you're looking for D&D similar, it would be a good choice. As is well known, the series is based in the fantasy world that Feist and his friends role-played in (many years ago, now). Max

    Vista Complaints

    I am currently running Acrobat Professional 8 on Vista with no problems. I didn't have to do anything tricky to get it to run. At the risk of asking the obvious, did you try activating the software? I had to jump through all the activation hoops, but once I did it worked. Max

    Question on Office 2007

    Town Map

    I would suggest asking in the Cartography forum, here on ENWorld. You could also ask on the Dundjinni Forums. There are lots of maps already there, however if you don't see what you like there are many creative people over there who love to make maps that might help you out. Max

    [REQUEST] Intel Processor Hierarchy?

    Tom's Hardware website also has very detailed CPU comparisons. You can enter in two CPU's compare, and choose from (by my count) 38 different benchmark tests. They give the results for all the CPU's but highlight your two chosen ones in red to make it easier to see...

    Deadlands D20 Resources

    I realize it isn't exactly what you're looking for, but if you can't find the Deadlands d20 stuff you might want to check out Sidewinder: Recoiled. It is d20 western, although more historically based. Certainly possible to take the historical western info and add in the Deadlands stuff. They...

    Sidewinder SRD

    That's the spirit that will keep the small game publishers going! :) Max (who ran a game that didn't totally suck, thereby getting his players to buy Sidewinder: Recoiled themselves. :cool: )

    Help needed - western maps

    I like the Cowtown Creator a lot. However, if you need ready to go maps the Sidewinder line from DHR is the way to go. Yes, you get lots of other stuff besides maps, as you said. However Cowtown Creator retails for 19.95. You can get all three of the Frontier Towns: Fort Griffin products...

    2006 ENnie Awards Fans' Choice Nominations Thread

    I'd like to nominate Dog House Rules for their excellent work on the Sidewinder: Recoiled products. Let's face it, anyone who can be nominated for multiple ENnies, even winning one, while publishing a non-fantasy western RPG in a market dominated by fantasy and sci-fi must be doing some mighty...

    Bad Moon over California OOC

    Riley considers shooting one of his companions, just to see if they are alive. Luckily, he realizes before he pulls the trigger that he wouldn't really know if they were alive once he shoots them. :cool: So, is there a status update on the game? :)

    D20 Western

    I agree with everyone that Sidewinder: Recoiled is a great book. Why? For me, there are a couple big reasons. First, have you ever been annoyed to read a book that was poorly edited and hard to read? Well, Recoiled is a joy to read because the writing is well done, with just enough western...

    Bad Moon over California

    Riley McClean Riley spends the time & effort to drag his saddle off of his dead horse, and recover the rest of his gear. Luckily, his rifle stayed in place. Still no sign of his hat, though. Caching his saddle in the most protected place he can find (under a tree or some rocks), he moves...

    New Vistas - Exploring The Louisiana Purchase

    Sounds like a fun and different type of western with less emphasis on gunfighters and colt peacemakers, and more on exploration. However ..... I'm a big fan of Sidewinder, but don't own Grim Tales. I've learned from experience not to play games where I don't own all the rules being used. Max

    RPGxplorer - How's it looking?

    Yesterday, Anurien said they would have a release date update at the end of this week. Regarding Arcana Evolved, take a look in their forums: http://www.rpgexplorer.com/forums.htm There is a sticky post near the top of the General Forum called "Investigation of OGL and non-OGL systems". Max

    Bad Moon over California

    Riley McClean Racing his horse for the trees, Riley watches helplessly as the wall of snow thunders down the mountain side. He reflexively, and futilely, tightens his grip on the reins as the snow hits with the force of a sledgehammer, ripping him out of the saddle. Bouncing off of trees...
