I've looked into the IK world and have purchased Lock and Load. The basic concept is great, and the detailed descriptions are wonderful, not to mention the marvellous artwork. However, I have one question concerning the core concept: guns. In the real world, along with the discovery of guns...

I've been looking for a book depicting all armors/weapons for a given culture/time period in both text and picture. Is there such a book (or multiple books)? I know there are several role-playing books about the subject, but I'm interested in the actual historical truth more than anything. If...

I have heard that swords are balanced equally between the hilt and the blade. So I have heard that to test if a sword is real simply use your finger and place it where the hilt meets the blade and if the sword remains balanced straight on your finger, its real. Is this true? If so, is this true...

In my campaign, I'd like (and im sure they would like to agree as well) to think that my players and I are intelligent people. The game I run deals with pretty intense and thought provoking ideas. I have several NPC philosophers in the game that play a major role in the campaign. As of now I am...

I'm playing in a modified game setting (published setting, altered to fit my creative concepts). It is a low magic setting (more of a rare magic....totally different in my opinion, but it seems most people describe these settings as such). But I have included most PrC's, etc in this world to...

Im not very talented with computers, but i was wondering how to copy something from a PDF and paste to Microsoft Word AND changing the text to a normal text one would be able to achieve by typing: 1. I've tried both text select and column select, column select works best becuase slecting all...

I am a senior in high school, and I will be graduating soon. I am ranked very high in my class (as of now number 1) and (in my opinion) somewhat athletic (i run and lift weights everyday). I have decided to take a big step in my life and enter the Annapolis Naval Academy. All the paperwork has...

I was considering purchasing Decipher's Atlas of Middle Earth but was curious. I already have a map of the continents and where the towns are. What I need is detailed city maps (and at this point especially Lothlorien). Does this book contain what I need?

are there any random fantasy town makers on the net that will create maps, descriptions of people living there, etc?

Im not sure I should even post this, but I really do need help. Im running a game in a couple of days and needed to create a couple of PrC's and Core Classes. I was going to use excel and found the process difficult. Its easy to get the most of the info typed in and I even figured out how to...

Im going to be running Midnight and I was thinking of adding a making a few variations. I was going to allow ALL classes/PrCs/feats/spells from the following books: PHB 3.0 (my players like it better), DMG 3.5, Complete Warrior, Against the Shadow, Midnight Camapign Setting, Book of Exalted...

I was curious as to if Wizards of the Coast had created anymore Core Classes besides those found in the Complete Warrior and the PHB.

somewhere I remember seeing a compiled list of classes, PrCs, feats, races, and spells from WotC. (It just listed the name, book, and page number) Does anyone know where this document can be found?

Can someone please describe the setting and fell of the Caslte Falkenstein rpg. I have heard very little about it and am interested in it, although the nearest FLGS is and hour and a half away, and i can't find much on the net about it. What is magic like? What races are offered? What tech...

Explain your reasoning behind the choice. [edit] Yes, sorry i should be more clear: your favorite style of gameplay. If you had to choose which setting to play in (or dm).

I missed the history channel show on the subject and was just wondering: what was the amazing power of the grail? I know it was used at the last supper but what was it's amazing power? why go on the crusades for it?

I missed the history channel show on the topic and was just curious as to what the holy grail was supposed to do? I know it was the grail at the last supper that was lost. But why go on crusades looking for it? What was it's mysterious power?

I remember there being a link to a specific comic about how gnomes, halflings, and dwarves were all the same. Could someone please repost the link (I've searched, but there are so many nodwick comic strips) Thanks!

Why is the only race that was not included in LotR included in D&D? (gnomes)? Why did Tolkien not use this race in his works? It seems like a fairly common mythological concept.

I remember seeing polls posted a while ago (possibly years) listing, describing, and asking which type of fantasy was the favorite. I'm just looking for more options. I'm not asking for specific settings, I was just wondering on terms of genearality: high fantasy, grim and gritty, etc. (that's...
