New article is up. I'm really starting to enjoy her style, and there are a few jems of quotes in there.

After playing a few sessions of 4e, I really like having all the powers available. However, I've noticed some players having trouble keeping track of what powers they've used, and forget situational bonuses given by other characters. I've decided to make some really simple power cards...

Okay, so I was working up a dwarven cleric for our group. And I noticed something that makes a dwarf into the group's pack mule: Normal load is STR x 10. Heavy load (which normally Slows the character) is STR x20. This means my 13 STR dwarf can carry up to 260 pounds worth of stuff, and still...

One thing I've noticed is that if you're an arcane/divine class and multiclass to a martial class, you don't automatically gain any weapon skills. So, your cleric/warlord is still whacking people with a mace, while your wizard/ranger is even more screwed unless they drop a feat for the requisite...

Check it out. He has "joined the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game team as a Rules Consultant."

Original post: in Thread Paizo making a decision Reason: We've got two threads in General and one in 4e right now. Could probably stand a thread merge, at least the two in General. Assigned Moderators: (mods who got the Email) April O'Neil, Creideiki, d6, Darkness, Dinkeldog, Dinkeldog2...

One of the new banner ads, God Hates Elves, is apparently a somewhat incoherent attempt to play off God Hates Fags, an anti-homosexual site run by Fred Phelps' Westboro Baptist Church. It seems to be in poor taste to have a site like that, and EN World being associated with it through the ads...

Got a weekly newsletter from RPGnow, and it has a very pleasant surprise: until January 15, Malhavoc Press is giving away their PDF When the Sky Falls for free. Blurb on the site: I just bought Requiem for a God last week, and thought it was pretty cool. Not entirely to my liking (the...

The new Rise of the Runelords adventure just showed up at my door today. Starting to read through it now. Anyone else have thoughts on this one?

I'm going to preemptively create a thread for the American broadcast of these two episodes tonight on Sci-Fi. Season finale, folks! If the spoilers I've been trying to avoid are right, this should go out with a bang...

So, we've put together a small D&D group, three of us and a DM. The other two players went with a sorcerer and a druid. After thinking it over, I went with an half-orc wilderness rogue, taking the Track feat. I almost went with a ranger, but I figure we need a way to deal with traps and...

Since no one else started the thread: A bit heavy on the exposition, but I really liked this episode. A few classic horror clichés thrown in for fun, plus some great quick-edits on the Doctor's expression as he figures things out in the pit. :)

According to this announcement on RPG.net, GoO has officially closed its doors. Orders already placed will be completed, unless they cannot, in which case a refund will be offered. BESM 3e is complete, and will be published by another company. Advanced d20 Magic is being printed and should be...

The new Dungeon arrived today, and I didn't see a thread on it, so here goes: Shut-In - After a series of brutal murders, a deranged, mute halfling has been arrested and tried... and escaped on his way to death row. Aristocrats clamor for protection, but the local guard is stretched thin. The...

Surprised no one has mentioned this. I only found out about it last night, and it's out June 24th! George Romero is creating a new movie in his zombie series, which began with Night of the Walking Dead, continued with Dawn of the Dead and gave us Day of the Dead. Land of the Dead is his new...

I was bored at work earlier this week, and was thinking about the homebrew campaign I'm working on. I've been trying to figure out the best way to make certain design elements fit d20, and was considering if Blue Rose would work best. Then, something struck me... my setting was already going to...

Yep, that's right. Ben Browder is joining Stargate SG-1 as of Season 9. Still no word if RDA will stay with the show or not, though.

This is an idea I had a long time ago, when Athas.org was still working on their 3e conversion and the Dragon/Dungeon remake was nothing more than rumor. Essentially, the ideas of how to create Defilers and Preservers in 3e/3.5e has proved to be a point of heavy contention. It's made more...

So, it seems that Wizards is putting out a new book late this year called Frostburn. (Mentioned here.) No real details, other than it's part of their new Environment Series. To me, it sounds like a direct competitor to Frost & Fur, a book which I've been itching to get my hands on. Perhaps...

I'm sure this topic has been hashed out before, but I don't have search capabilities, so... I was reading through my PDFs of AU (legal copy through RPGnow!), and I can't figure out what parts of the material are really Open. Reading the Product Identity portion of the OGL, it seems that...
