Moderators: If this is in the wrong forum, I apologize and ask that it be moved to the appropriate one. Hi folks! My name is Stephen Miller and I am an unemployed game designer. I've done work with GURPS 3rd edition as well as the d20 games of Sherwood: The Legend of Robin Hood and Gaslight...

I just got a gift of a GenCon Badge for this year. I have a place to stay, but I am looking for a way to get there. If someone is coming from the Minneapolis-St Paul area, I would be more then willing to help drive (good record, insurance, and AAA). I know the route there, as I was at GenCon in...

One of my players asked me the other day about reach weapons that are not in the PH. He wants to know if there are any that also allow close attacks, as pretty much everything in the PH does not allow that. I said I would ask here and see what I could find. So, can you tell me what weapons and...

In my campaign the players are working towards an big encounter with their campaign-long archrivals - the dwarves. The dwarves around here are xenophobic, monotheistic, and run by a heavy-handed theocracy. That's just background, but it helps set the mood. What I am looking for is some...

Does anyone have an idea of where I might find feline/humanoid miniatures that might work for a Victorian Era game? The would be like creatures from The Island of Doctor Moreau. I have not had much success.

So, I am finally getting around to possibly doing a campaign that allows psionics in it. I do not own any psionic books, mainly because I do not normally allow psionics in my fantasy games. That is a whole other thread, so I will not go over that here. What I am interested in finding out is, of...

A friend of mine is thinking abut running a game that is similar in style to film noir, with elements of two-fisted action as well. It's going to be more investigative in nature, but combat will fill a role in the game. Takes place in the 1930s. What he asked me to do is find a game system that...

Does anyone have a complete list of who was feature in the Core Beliefs series of articles? I am curious as to which ones were done and which ones I might have a go at writing up for my personal campaign. Thanks!

So, I am thinking of converting my highly modified 3.0 game to Pathfinder. One of the things I will need to do is convert a number of races from Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved to Pathfinder. I figure I will start with the Litorian. Now to be honest, I have not read all of the Pathfinder book yet...

I am trying to find a magic item slots sheet that does NOT feature a silhouette of some guy in spiky armor (unlike, for example, the official WotC one). Anyone got a clue on this one? I used to have one that Mark from Creative Mountain Games created several years ago, but that file has gone AWOL.

So, I am curious about peoples thoughts on dice bags. How big do you like them? Does it have a flat bottom? What materials make the best dice bags (leather, silk, brocade, other)? What makes a dice bag stand out? What makes you want to buy one? Now, before people start saying "I use a Crown...

Okay, so I am doing some business cards for someone who wants polyhedral dice as a graphic on their card. The problem is, I have no idea where to find some good clipart of said dice. Anyone have a good source for this?

I am trying to find a city generator I used some time ago. It creates a city using the rules from either D&D 3.0 or 3.5, but it also creates the names of various businesses including jewelers, weaponsmiths, and inns. It also generates names, classes, levels and personality information on shop...

So, some of my players in my 3.0 game acquired a Necklace of Fireballs. They were all happy until they realized that it would have to replace their amulet of Natural Armor, since they both take up the throat/neck slot for magic items. I noticed in 3.5 that they changed it so that the Necklace...

OK, so let's assume that my group and I decide to buy 4e and run a new campaign.* I have a player who really has a fondness for playing her gnomish druids. I understand that I may be able to find playable stats for a gnome in the Monster Manual, but I think she's going to be SOL for anything...

I am curious about something. I have been reading these boards since the 3.0 days, and I have been fascinated by the different characters I see mentioned. Folks seem to do a huge amount of multi-class characters, some with four or more classes. So I am wondering, if a character is 10th level...

I have read several threads which allude to a Human Fighter build that uses a series of feats for a spiked chain that borders on obscene. The thing is, nobody actually shows what this build is, they just talk about it. I understand it can be done with just the core books in both 3.0 and 3.5...

Here's something that has been bothering me of late. I have seen some great spell templates by Frank the DM and others, but they don't appear to follow the examples shown in the 3.0 DMG. Since I am playing 3.0, and only have access to the 3.5 SRD, I haven't seen official examples of the same...

Okay, so I have a player whose character, through a series of bad situations, ended up dying. The party used a charge on a Staff of Life to cast resurrection on him. That brings him back to life, but at one level lower. Well, that's all fine and dandy, but now he's a bit, whiny about losing...

I have a player joining my game who is creating a Dwarf who is a mug fighter. I got the idea, and the weapon, from a Ronin Arts book (which one, I can't remember). What I am now looking for is a good miniature of a dwarf with a fairly large mug in his hands. I know that Reaper has Nord...
