    Gaming apps for Droid

    Does anyone know of any apps for the Droid that would be helpful for running RPGs? I mostly play D&D (3.5), SWSE, and TFT. I've looked a bit, but I haven't seen anything promising in the marketplace. I might be using the wrong search terms or something.

    DR and Droids in Saga (two questions)

    1. I've noticed that a lot of the custom Saga character sheets seem to have a section for Damage Reduction. Just how *do* you get DR in SE, other than being an Elite Trooper? n.b. I know about personal shields from KOTOR, but I'm focused on *DR*, not *SR*. 2. Droid HP. Is it just me, or do...

    Why do CS re-subscriptions cost double?

    A CS subscription is $3/month ... unless you had one before, then it's $6/month. Why is there such a punitive price difference between the two? If anything, I would think you'd want to encourage lapsed CS accounts to resubscribe with a discount.

    ENWorld Spamletter

    I was very disturbed to see EN World D&D/RPG Newsletter #1 arrive in my email box yesterday. I never subscribed to an ENWorld newsletter. I never wanted to be subscribed to an ENWorld newsletter. Simply blasting it out to all user accounts rather than putting up a note about it so people...

    Lost in the Wilderness

    I was running my 3.5 Eberron game tonight, and the party ended up getting lost in the Talenta Plains. They had a crude map showing Gatherhold and a cave where they could find some monsters to smite, and they struck off into the plains. Not bothering to hire a guide, of course. Three days (and...

    GMail Advertising

    I saw a funny thing today. While I was checking my gmail, the following appeared in the "Web Clips" line near the top of the screen: Dungeons & Dragons News - EN World - D&D / Dungeons & Dragons / RPGs - D&D 4E, D&D 3.5, and older editions news, reviews, community and more Too bad I already...

    Haste + TWF

    So, we had a little disagreement about the effects of TWF + Haste in my game tonight. The TWF fighter had +8 with a Scimitar or +4/+4 with dual scimitars. Wizard casts Haste and says "Okay, your attack sequence will be +8/+4/+4" (get an extra attack at your highest possible bonus). I...

    Email alerts being sent twice

    I got two copies of last night's thread update emails. Judging by the other threads in this forum, the server isn't doing very well right now...

    Site layout with ads turned off

    Rumor has it that the new site codebase will allow community supporters to turn off the ads. Will this also collapse the right-hand-side ad column? I'm finding its presence to be incredibly annoying. For that matter, is the ad-disabling feature enabled yet? If not, when will it be available?

    Seward, Inc - looking for programmers

    This isn't a game-related opening, but my employer is looking for another programmer or two. We're a small company in Minneapolis, MN that does a variety of web development projects, mostly e-learning type stuff. Since it's an entry-level position, our requirements are pretty basic. We're...

    Pirate/Nautical-themed encounters

    I'm planning a pirate-themed campaign, so I started brainstorming possible shipboard encounters. Some of these are Eberron-specific, but most are general enough to apply to any setting. 1. Another ship passes within hailing distance: -- Lyrander magic ship -- Lyrander sailing ship -- merchant...

    Obnoxious ads

    In the past, I've avoided blocking Eeee Ennnn World's ad banners because I haven't classified the site in the same despicable category as most Internet advertisers. This ad banner prompted me to change this policy: http://shop.enworld.org/images/engs/banners//banner1.gif Morrus, you do...

    IRC channel

    I tried to log into the IRC channel earlier, and I couldn't connect to the server. Is it temporarily down, or am I trying to connect with outdated information? This is what I tried: #dnd3e on irc.otherworlders.org (6660)

    Blending the Wizard and Druid (or Ranger)

    I'm playing a wizard who is considering multiclassing with Druid or Ranger. Does anyone have any advice on prestige classes, feats, etc. that might be appropriate for this type of blend?

    From ENWorld - Morrus' D&D / 4th Edition / d20 News - [relevant thread title] to [relevant thread title - ENWorld - Morrus' D&D / 4th Edition / d20 News The latter focuses the most useful information at the beginning of the title where it is most relevant, and importantly, what you see in your...

    ENWorld page title and email notice headers

    Please revert to ENWorld from Eeee Ennn World - it screwed up my email filter. Failing that, please reply here indicating that it's a permanent change so I'll know to make a new filter (bother bother). It was funny for the first day, but now it's actually kind of bothersome.

    Abstract Gear Handling

    Has anyone used the variant equipment handling where, every time a PC levels up, that PC simply selects new gear whose value adds up to the appropriate entry in the Wealth By Level table in the DMG? How does that end up affecting the game?

    Houseruling Raise Dead spells

    How common is it that people house-rule the Raise Dead type spells? A friend of mine is starting a campaign soon, and he's making a house rule that only Clerics with the Death domain (which PC clerics may not take) may cast Raise Dead because, according to him, PCs won't take death seriously...
