In a very unfortunate and poorly thought out post today, Bart Carroll of Wizards of the Coast heavily endorsed the use of the word "retard" in his April and Beyond preview. In the article, he discusses how Chris Sims "absolutely hates the silly, stupid, and outright ridiculous monsters" from...

Book of Exalted Deeds Now Book of Exalted Deeds is available.

Monster Manual III Just when I was starting to think they were through releasing digital products for a while, Monster Manual III became available today. Again, old stuff. Had it been Monster Manual IV I'd likely have bought it. Give us some of the new stuff!

Expanded Psionics Handbook Well, I hope to see the trend of a product a day continue. Now the Expanded Psionics Handbook is available. Still holding out for something newer...

Dungeon Masters Guide II I saw that Dungeon Masters Guide II was released as a watermarked PDF yesterday. Getting closer to something I want. It figures WotC is now releasing things as PDF. Sadly, I won't have as much money to buy them... I'll be spending too much of my money on Paizo...

The Speaker In Dreams Released I noticed this evening that The Speaker in Dreams adventure was released as a watermarked PDF today. That's two products in as many days; very exciting news! Keep'em coming, you are bound to get to something I'm waiting to buy eventually!

Draconomicon Released I saw that the Draconomicon was released as a watermarked PDF yesterday. That's a step in the right direction. Still, something a little more "new" might sell better? I'm looking for things like the Fiendish Codex books, Player's Handbook II, and Tome of Battle. Things...

I may be behind the times, but I just read in my DriveThruRPG March Newsletter than WotC has switched from DRM products to Watermarked PDFs. I looked in their store, and sure enough, the DRM protection is gone. I have to say this is exciting news. I would buy everything WotC puts out, as...

Hmmm. It does look similar and work much the same way, but I don't recall having ever visited that website. I wonder if it is some kind of variant.

Hello, About a year ago, I downloaded a zombie survival mini-game. I don't remember if it was something I bought from an online store or if it was a free download. I really think it was from a WotC (or former WotC) employee's website. Now, all I can find is the map, and it is not labeled...

You know, it might be informative if people named off game systems or whatnot that contain miniatures useful for gaming. I know there are a lot of games out there with useful minis, and I'm the kind of person who isn't above buying a game just to get the figures! I'm sure there are a lot out...

The website (www.heroscape.com) retails the game itself (with 30 minis) at $39.99 and the expansions at $12.99. At Wal-Mart, the game was $39.99, but they were selling the expansion packs for $9.92. There are four expansion packs currently available: a Roman legion, a Grut legion (look like...

Hey folks, While browsing the toy section of Wal-Mart last night looking for anything I could make work on game night, I found an awesome new game with its own line of miniatures. It's a Hasbro product called Heroscape. The game itself looks neat, but I was particularly drawn to the very...

I'd love to see Dragon on CD. I'd love to see new issues of Dragon released as PDFs as an option in the future. I have the entire bottom of a closet filled with boxes of old Dragon and Dungeon magazines. I can't/don't use them because it is such a hassle to get to them and I'm running out of...

If I had $100 to spend with the collection of books posted, I'd consider maximizing the bang for the buck and going heavy with PDFs. Specifically, Green Ronin's Advanced Bestiary and Advanced Player's Manual are absolutely awesome and packed with material at a good price. E.N. Publishing has...

Red Line: "Can we just red line there?" Used anytime the party travels from one position to another in the game and we do not play out the actual travel. Origin: It comes from Indiana Jones. Every time he travels, he gets on a plane and you see a red line on a map moving along. One of us...

The Advanced Player's Manual gave me the idea of giving other races Stability at a lower bonus than dwarves. When I thought about it, I decided that half-orcs are broad, wide-framed, but tall. Thus, they are very sturdy, but their height makes them easier to knock over than the "low-rider"...

Gestalt... Experimenting Still I've been playing Gestalt since shortly after Unearthed Arcana came out. Obviously, there are not many rules for Gestalt, so most of it you end up having to make up as you go. There is nothing for it but playtesting. We have been using the following system with...

Upgraded via GRR's Advanced Player's Manual Interesting question. I just started playing with this very issue the other day after buying GRR's Advanced Player's Manual. I ended up with the following critter as the new half-orc in my campaign. It looks extreme at first, but it really isn't...

Oriental Twist My party is currently in Kara-Tur after stumbling through a damaged portal outside Scardale. They've been there for some time trying to find some acceptance in T'u Lung. They are currently working as liasons with the local military trying to stop the Xin Nang barbarians along...
