I'm participating in NaNoWriMo for the first time this year. I've never written anything over 13,000 words before, and I'm enjoying the challenge. I'm only 3,930 words in so far, though, a bit over half where I'd like to be now. I'm writing a fantasy Western. Anyone else?

I'm seriously liking Star Wars Saga Edition, but I really miss the ability to pop a couple skill points into little things your character should have a smattering of. More of an issue at low level, obviously, but I'm interested in finding a way to get the level of customizability that you have...

So, I've been thinking about 3E and 4E. I was really excited about 4E leading up to its release; I'd been playing mostly Savage Worlds, kind of taking a break from 3.5 for a while. However, when 4E came out it just...didn't really grab me. I won't speculate here on why. What 4E did do was...

I'm in the process of tweaking the PotSM system to work as a (over)simplified submarine combat game set in the Tannhauser universe-German demonology versus Allied supertechnology. Anyhoo, I'm looking for submarine minis. The Axis & Allies submarine slate is woefully thin, and I'm having trouble...

How do you work out the average roll on an exploding die? I'd really appreciate it if someone better with probability could give me a hand here :heh: For those who don't know, with exploding dice if you roll the maximum, you roll again and add it until you stop rolling the max.

I've just had the idea to run a Spelljammer game with Savage Worlds, using the ship combat from Pirates of the Spanish Main. Now I'm going crazy waiting for the core rules to arrive so I have the magic system. Aaaah! Anyways, it strikes me that Savage Worlds is perfection on toast for...

I'm building a monk/fighter for a game, and I want to fight mainly with my unarmed attacks (it's not a power build). My basic idea is to wear armor and such, possibly a buckler, and use a magic gauntlet with my unarmed strikes. A gauntlet "lets you deal lethal damage rather than nonlethal damage...

With some new feat options opened up by Tome of Battle, I've once again been considering the idea of a non-monk unarmed combatant. Here is my proposed feat path, for a human fighter. 1 Improved Unarmed Strike 1h Flying Kick *1 1b Power Attack 2b Weapon Focus (unarmed strike) 3 Superior Unarmed...

Can you do this? I'm helping someone build a Gaara-from-Naruto-clone, and one of his signature attacks is the ability to surround someone with a cocoon of sand, holding them immobile. Can you hold someone immobile with Create Earth (or Metal, or whatever)? I'm considering just making a feat...

I'm on the lookout for a very simple system for d20 space combat. I basically don't want to make my players learn a new system to fight in space (they're all newbies), and I'd like something that's simple and fast. Ideally, the only stats would be HP and AC of a ship, attacks of its weapons, and...

The Pink Panther. The Bad News Bears. Underworld 2. The Chronicles of Narnia. Miami Vice. Scary Movie 4. The Dukes of Hazzard. King Kong. Pride and Prejudice. Batman Begins. Superman. Sin City. Is it just me, or are there a lot more remakes/sequels/movies-of-TV-shows/movies-of-books out now...

Gimme some recommendations. I've enjoyed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Hero, and I'm looking for some more of this style to check out.

I'm looking for a game that's stat-less. I want it to run a "you're you, but you got sucked into a fantasy world" type game, and I don't want the pain of deciding what people's stats are, and I want it to be a surprise, so I can't just have them make themselves as characters in whatever system...

My church is currently between buildings (actually, we're letting some other churches use ours. No, I don't understand either :)). Anyhow, we're currently meeting in an elementary school building. Me and my brother arrive early to brew up the coffee for everybody. We do this in a room where art...

Really. I just got the first few episodes out of a local library, and I'm really enjoying it so far.

Good Lord, it's beautiful! It rocks a lot! Wow! If I ever get around to buying M&M, this is the game I want to run. Man! it was cool. Alright, I'm done now.

I went to NekoCon last weekend. I live nearby, so I didn't have to pay for a hotel, and there were quite a few people I knew there. Michael "Mookie" Terraciano, the guy that does Dominic Deegan, was there. I got a Death from Above shirt, a cast poster that he kindly signed, and I dressed up as...

Which of these songs is a superior musical experience? Which is a more lavish homage to pulchritudinous females? Which would you rather listen to? Inquiring minds want to know!

I gotta admit, I knew I was going to like this one :cool: It's just such an incredibly cool idea, like Small Soldiers meets Toy Story meets Call of Cthulhu. And I'll be able to break out my Legos again! Check it out!
