    A Call to Join Organized Play at PaizoCon Online and New Releases from Paizo

    So, I have a dumb question. Are there any "Pathfinder for Savage Worlds" games at the previous years? I'd be interested in "attending" if there were.

    I suck at DMing. Can anyone help?

    First off, I appreciate all the input. While I haven't looked at all the referring links, I will get to them as I read though the threads another time or two. Wicht, Goatunit, and Rune bring up good points that I haven't thought about, the top down approach where you create the story around...

    I suck at DMing. Can anyone help?

    I'm not a very creative person when it comes to stories. Being an analyst, I need to know how things work. So, I've spent a lot of time looking into what a Campaign Arc is, a plot device, etc. Unfortunately, I'm not getting it. Hence my plea.... I have the Dungeon Master's Design Kit (TSR...

    When We Were Young...

    Lessons Here are some ideas I had for different lessons to help reinforce the rules and to "correct" bad behaviors. The idea is to have lessons for each individual or group for a "class". So, for example, the Weaponmaster (in this case, Kodrin Delvar) is in charge of teaching the 1st year...

    When We Were Young...

    Good points. I wasn't really thinking of the adventures as age based, but more of a series of challenges per school year ("level" if you will). The age of the character would be roleplayed by the player. Each character will have an archetype (ex, jock, nerd, popular) that they can run with...

    Choose Your Own Adventure Character Creation

    Traveller character creation may be a place to look. FASA Star Trek character creation may also be a way to get ideas.

    When We Were Young...

    Finals (4e Concept) After reading some of the sidebars in Arcane Power, I've come up with an idea for two of the "finals". In "Goblet of Fire" and "A Knight's Tale" fashion, there will be a tournament every 3 years at the end of the year. Every three years, all students Year 2 and above are...

    Dorms The dormitories are where the players spend their off hours studying and sleeping. The dorms will change over the years, but start out as a 60' x 60' building with The dorms are an open floor plan with structural supports that delineate four "rooms." Each floor has a fireplace and...

    School Structure (4e D&D Concept) The school is located in a forested region not too far from a large city or village. This ensures that the school is in a safe, yet sequestered location. They will come to the Adventuring College from whatever means and will be grouped into a color coded...

    When We Were Young...

    I've been tossing around and compiling ideas for some time on running a "Kids Campaign" where you play scaled back versions of your characters (essentially a name and whatever background you bring to the table) that would develop your character and lead into a full blown campaign. We've run a...

    Virtual Tabletop software?

    To Hassur: Well, you are correct. You are getting no added value by purchasing a GM copy of any VTT. You are, however, getting added functionality. Yes, they are different. You do have a valid argument on price, which I would like to comment on. The simple economics of computer software...

    WotBS Subscription and WotBS

    The issue I had was that I couldn't find a FAQ anywhere. I think if the FAQ was on this page it would be pretty obvious. :) Well, that's very generous! This being the case, I may just pick up the PDF and subscribe to the "Community Supporter". Do you plan on doing a 4e hardcover? I don't...

    WotBS Subscription and WotBS

    OK, I'm confused. I haven't seen anything on how the subscription works. So, my question is, if I subscribe to the "Community Supporter" subscription, do I get access to the back catalog for the "Subscriber Content", or is it anything new? Also, while I'm thinking of it, do all the extras...

    pbp Forum Project

    Just thought I'd bump this with some status updates. I've been working on refinements to the table structure for the pbpForum. Nothing mind blowing at this point, but may start on some basic pages. I've been playing "Tiny Aventures" for D&D on Facebook. While stripped down and nothing like...

    What do you know about notebook computers?

    I don't doubt it. I've never tried it, but essentially it should be the same as connecting (sharing) a network drive. It should act the same for installing programs.

    What do you know about notebook computers?

    One thing to keep in mind with NetBooks is that they do not have an optical drive. So, installing software would require another purchase of an external disc drive ($90 last I checked, but this was long ago). At this price, it's worth getting a Laptop instead. I usually rule out NetBooks...

    What do you know about notebook computers?

    Depends what you're going to use it for. If you're going to use it to surf the web, check your mail, and do some spreadsheets, go with the cheapest that has the most hard drive space (min 1 GB RAM, 2 is better). If you're planning on gaming, that's a whole different story (mostly left to a...
