I'm researching some old game stores of New York or the metro area. I'm Aware of course of the long time Complete Strategist (still there ) and the closed Neutral Ground. Would be very grateful of people could tell me about older games stores of the city and if possible pics would be wonderful...

Hey I just settled in NY (note to self: need to update location) and suddenly am in need of some laptop repair. I've got an Asus. Can anybody recommend a good place?

I am soon moving from Moscow (after 15 years) back to the US, and unfortunately my massive RPG collection is weighing me down. I've posted a sale on a Russian RPG site which I'll link to. All books are in English and in Good to Excellent condition. I've posted the prices in roubles; generally...

Don't see the buy and sell forum anymore. I have a collection for sale of 2e and 3e. Can I post it, and where?

To me so far, the addition of three new races into the core rules is the biggest departure from previous editions, at least in terms of feel. The dropping of the half orc and gnome is less so, since they're still playable races. All previous editions had had the same basic choice of core races...

I come from the generation that started with the Red Box (Moldvay edition for me) or some similar version of D&D, as my entry product. It seems that lots of people who started around then started D&D with one of versions of the Basic D&D set and then moved to AD&D and/or other RPGs. (I...

Are there PDF downloads for the whole issues (i.e. Dragon 361 all in one PDF) available for Dragon 361-66 and Dungeon 151-156? I was looking at the website adn I can only find Dragon 360. Is this only available for a fee at this point?

Well, I've officially switched to 4e. I have the three corebooks and am reading them. My group plans to start a 4e campaign this fall, and we're off for the summer. Given my limited game time at the moment, and the likely hood I"ll only be in one campaign at a time, it seems that at least...

I haven't posted here for a long while so I hope there are people here who still remember me. Last fall, my wife and I were blessed with good news that unfortunately greatly reduced my posting (and my gaming), which was already down to a pittance due to life issues. We found out that after...

I just noticed that price of the 4e products I have on my Amazon wish list--the PHB and the MM, and presumably the DMG, have increased in price to $35 (23 and change with the amazon discount). I'm almost certain it was $30 just a few days ago, and the EN World 4e site says they're $30. Anyone...

Situation I run an informal game club at the school I teach at. It's an international secondary school in Moscow, meaning that the kids are from all over the world. Many are from Korea and Japan, though there's some from Eastern Europe. I like to encourage games to get them to practise...

I've just sorted out summer travel plans that allow me to visit Gen Con for the first time ever. Can I get some quick advice on what planning I need to do now? I'm planning to drive from the Bloomington-normal IL area. I'm assuming that it' makes more sense to drive rather than try to find a...

Hey I was trying to remember a fantasy short story that I read in a literature book in junior high school. In the story, there is a village healer who has lived a normal life in the village but has mysterious origins. One day a wizard arrives from out of town and seeks out the healer. He...

Give me your favorite fantasy-themed comics/graphic novels. What would somebody wanting to get into the genre want to pick up?

I just loved this interview and had to recommend it somewhere. Richard Hatch talks about loads of things, including his development of a (P&P) role-playing game. The Podcast website, www.geekson.com, doesn't have the podcast linked on their front page, but it can be downloaded from this...

Has anyone heard much of the Japanese Anime film Tales of Earthsea (Gedo senki in Japanese). It's directed by Goro Miyazaki, the son of Hayao Miyazaki. In Japan last year it was a smash hit. According to IMDB and Wikipedia, it's set to be released in the UK on DVD in August, I believe, but is...

Aside from the 110/220 W power issue, does anyone here know if there are there any issues of compatibility between the Will console or other current consoles between the US version and the UK/Europe version? If you buy the console in one country, and games and accessories somewhere else, are...

I saw WLC sitting shrinkwrapped in a FLGS the other day. I'm curious about this book but can't browse it. Anyone got the lowdown on its contents and the quality?

I'm visiting home after a couple of years absence. Last time I was there the FLGS of my childhood, Adventureland, was gone. I've tried google searches and haven't found much but I'm holding out hope that it's moved (again). If Adventureland is no more, what are the good stores nowadays (if any)?

Don't know if this has been posted here, so I'll post this. I saw it on sale at FRPGames. http://frpgames.irook.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=29256
