    Using cards in your game?

    Indeed. I'll be fiddling around with index cards a bit to see if I can find the right combination of information and layout. An early thought is to use one edge of a card for the numbers and an adjacent edge for the name, and use a diagonal stagger. Another early thought is to put the...

    Using cards in your game?

    Merkuri must have been reading my mind, as this particular brainstorm hit me a couple weeks ago. Specifically, I was somewhat boggled by how close the Munchkin card game is to answering this description already. Some careful card design, specifically to put *effects* at the top of the card (or...

    Female Gnome Sorcerer

    Take a look at the many halflings available at Discount Hobby (dot com). Also, see if you can scare up a pack of the Demonworld Ice Witches. It's a 15mm miniatures line, yes, but the ice witches are the right size to be halfling or gnome women in 25-28mm. Yes, the package comes with several...

    [GR PR] Bastards & Bloodlines Previews Available Now

    You guys do very nice layout, have better than average (if B&W) art, and started this series with a book that filled a gap (the Giants book). I just wish the Half-Giant hadn't been WAY over-ECL'd *and* been rendered unplayable with stat adjustments... Looking at the Eldest Sons preview, the...

    Polytheism

    Re: Polytheism Problems As previously noted, however, creation myths *should* be a bit messed up. The answer to this depends a LOT on how active the god is among his followers and the two nations as a whole. If the two sides both gain direct guidance from the deity (ie. his statues animate...

    You want armor for a WHAT?!

    Tako... Hmm (pulls out OA), not quite, though close. The fellows on the cardboard heroes all have two eyes, and one is is full out-to-the-tentacle-tips plate armor...

    And another Thing

    I'm looking at my Warhammer 40k Kroothounds, and wondering if Half-Dragon Riding Dog would do them justice...

    You want armor for a WHAT?!

    Having dug up my old Cardboard Heroes, I'm now looking for D20 stats for what appears to be an octopus, but a landwalking, weapon-using, armor-wearing octopus...

    List of Forbidden Names?

    While it may not be online as such, the list SHOULD be summed up by perusing the legals pages for Deities & Demigods, and Faiths & Pantheons. However, I note that WotC failed to put a trademark listing in Deities & Demigods, and I wouldn't be surprised if F&P is similar... Of the "D&D...

    Scarred Lands - What one book best describes the setting?

    That is one weakness (from a purchaser's POV) to the Scarred Lands line. There really isn't *one* place to get a feel for the setting at its best. The two mentioned (the Gazeteer and the GMs Screen) are a fair start, but the two Creature Collections and Relics & Rituals go a long way to...
