Hi, From the early issues, "Mightier than the Sword". From the 3e period, "Thirds of Purloined Vellum" and the Cauldron Adventure Path. Cheers Richard

Me too! I've used these loads. Haven't used the rest of the book much -- a couple of sample dragons was about it. Cheers Richard

Hi, I've used these: * Chaos Roc with fiendish template on Plain of Infinite Portals * Corpse gatherer -- in Thanatos, Orcus' layer of the Abyss * Corollax, Cloaked Ape, Forest Sloth -- in the jungles of Hepmonaland * Ixitxachitl, lots -- in Demogorgon's fortress of Abysm * Kelvezu demon...

Hi, I'm really looking forward to this -- more than Libris Mortis! I quite like random encounter tables in regional sourcebooks -- it gives me a list of what creatures can be found in a specific area. There are maps, aren't there? Serpent Kingdoms was a good book, but would have been much...

Hi, * Paranoia XP -- one of my mates has just bought this. Can't wait to play! We have fond memories of the original. * Call of Cthulhu -- my 2nd favourite RPG * Feng Shui -- have the games and a few supplements. Never played it. *Buffy the Vampire Slayer -- still waiting for my girlfriend...

Thank you both! Richard

Hi, I'd vote for underwater first -- the current rules are pretty sketchy, and I didn't like the underwater rules in Seas of Blood or Broadsides. Second choice would be jungle & rainforest. This is a fascinating environment with lots of potential. Cheers Richard

Chaositech in Freeport Hi, I equipped a bunch of evil Great Old One worshipping cultists in my Freeport game with implants, emitters and bombs which made them stand out from the run of the mill cultists they'd encountered previously. The players could have picked up the emitters and bombs...

Hi, I played these modules back in the early 80s when they first came out and later ran the supermodule version which was loosely set in the Forgotten Realms. I enjoyed the modules enormously from both sides of the screen and would include them in my all-time Top 5. There is very little stuff...

I'd also recommend Maiden Voyage -- I've run it twice and it's great fun, as well as Death in Freeport. My favourite 1st level adventure, though, is Thirds of Purloined Vellum -- a city based adventure from Dungeon #88 involving rival thieves' guilds and greedy merchants. It's set in Athkatla in...

Hi, One of my PCs has the feat but we can't remember what it does and have left the Complete Divine at home. Could someone please post a brief summary -- it's on page 80. Cheers Richard

Hi, Another vote for the grey FR boxed set. Honourable mentions for the Planescape Boxed Set and the Planewalker's Handbook, the G & D series, 3e Player's Handbook. Cheers Richard

Monday's Epic Game Hi, We used: 3.5 core rules Complete Book of Eldritch Might Epic Level Handbook Cheers Richard

Oh dear. Are they going back to roll and keep? Did I read something about them giving up on 7th Sea too? Richard

I agree that Feng Shui is a damn good game, but I think it's a bit harsh to suggest that Atlas' d20 products weren't. They published some very useful and interesting books -- Dynasties & Demagogues, Nyambe, En Route I & II, Seven Cities to name a few. It's a shame they've decided to stop...

I have D&D Minatures of Orcus and a cloud giant. The cloud giant towers over Orcus, as do the nightwalker and the treant:) It doesn't seem right, does it? Richard

random thoughts Hi, I'm in an Epic game that started with characters created at 17th level to play in Bastion of Broken Souls that are now 24th level. Myself and another guy have run one adventure each, and we are now on our third. Overall, it's been great fun. Some stuff about our game: 1...

I think I get it now, but please tell me if this makes sense! Say the mind flayer hits with its first attack and gets a hold with its improved grab. It then has two options -- continue to make tentacle attacks with its other three tentacles OR make up to three grapple attempts to fix on the...

Hi, Desperately need some help in adjudicating mind flayer tentacle attacks. How do they work? Is the initial tentacle attack a melee touch attack? If that misses, does the illithid get another three attempts with its other tentacles? If so and the last tentacle gets a hold, does it get to...
