XP SP3. FireFox 3. I would like to suggest that you make the article titles active links as well, for two reasons: 1. It avoids the immediate problem of the 'Read more' link being obscured by the text wrapping problems. 2. I find it more intuitive to simply click on the title of the thing I...

FireFox3 does not address the text wrapping problem - at least not on my PC. As for the suggestion to invest in hardware, you miss the point: I'm running 1680x1050 but I am not willing to relegate the amount of desktop space to the browser that ENWorld2 is demanding. EN2 is requiring a simply...

Nah. I think Paizo may suite me better. (In short, Morrus, your ongoing inability to respond to valid criticism except through snide sarcasm is really annoying me to the point of kissing these boards goodbye after many happy years.)

I’m with Mr Jack on this. We typically go with one of two methods: 1. All characters start with the following array of dice results, which can be assigned any way a player wishes, under the limitation that each score should have three dice assigned:  6,6,6,6,6  5,5,5,5,5  4,4,4,4  3,3  2,2...

I can't read something that does not exist. A few downloaded adventures does not Dungeon Magazine make (WotC always had free adventures - the current crop is just bigger). Dungeon Magazine died last year. Bagpuss has the gist of it. Same goes for Dragon Magazine, for what it is worth. (Kobold...

Treasure Planet. :-)

I use plastic stationery drawers for my plastic minis - these come in various shapes & sizes. I eventually settled on 3-drawer units that can stack. The drawers are see-through so I can easily spot what I want, and it is easy to remove one or two drawers to take them to the table when playing...

The online versions have been extremely disappointing. Whatever doubts I've had about subscribing have been dispelled. I'll miss my paper copies, and WotC will miss my money - Kobold Quarterly has filled the gap for me.

5. Nice thread. Should turn it into a poll with visible 'votes'.

Second Saga of Pliocene Exile (Julian May). Wonderful mix of fantasy/sci-fi with strong character & visual aspects.

Well said, Belorin.

Pffft. This cross-bred pantheon holds about as much appeal as roadkill (and is about as useful). They should have stuck with generics in the PHB and rather have given the DM some advice on coming up with a decent pantheon in the DMG. Generic adventures could have used sidebars to suggest...

On the rules side: Rules Compendium (I expect to still get a lot of mileage out of this one for the next two years or so). I however did find it very annoying that there is a web enhancement with the rules that they could not fit into the RC page count. They should have made the font smaller or...

Sorry to say it, but the new skin is most unpleasant. Dark text on a light background may be good, but not when the background is this bright (and I'm looking at it on a monitor tuned for subdued colour). (I've been working in IT for 16 years and have been staring at computer screens since 1983...

The Crucible of Freya (Necromancer Games). It's the 3E equivalent of Keep on the Borderlands from my perspective. And of course even more goodness when you stir in the supplement & The Wizard's Amulet lead-in adventure freely available from Necromancer.

Emotionally detached. My shelves are still groaning under the weight of my d20/OGL library. 4E is just coming too soon for me to want to spend the money all over again. Add to that the demise of Dragon & Dungeon with the online initiative and I really just don’t care to support them. I will...

These days I prefer to use neither dice nor point-buy as I find both inherently flawed. All characters in my game start with the following array of dice results, which can be assigned any way a player wishes under the limitation that each score should have three dice assigned: 6,6,6,6,6...

I agree with the OP that Power Attack skews fighting-style choice in favour of the hard-hitting types vs. the sword & shield approach. As luck would have it I tried the suggested variant in a recent campaign, i.e. doubling AC boost from Combat Expertise if you've got a shield. The character...

I give my players a set of 'wound' points (equal to their constitution) that kick in between losing your last hit point and becoming disabled. Various negatives apply for entering wound points (chance of becoming stunned when taking damage and suffering from fatigue/exhaustion), but it serves to...

Greyhawk Guide With fluff compared to the old boxed set and LGG together with crunch comparable to the FR book. Greyhawk Gods All the various gods and pantheons (including demi-human & monstrous pantheons) covered in detail, core beliefs style. And yes, books on Fey & Giants would be good!
