    The Age of Worms is over! (Spoilers)

    I ran AoW for my group (human sorcerer/master transmogrifist, human rogue/sorcerer, half-celestial fighter, half-elf cleric/divine oracle, human cleric/church inquisitor), and the climax could have been a lot more anticlimactic had I not thrown some rules out the window. Since the cleric's...

    Shazbot! I've been working on a long-fallow project that I planned to submit!

    Anime culture and D&D

    I'd like to see it, too. I even asked Mainframe if they had plans to do so, but with the departure of several key figures from the company, ReBoot has been shelved indefinitely.

    Star Wars Starships: Preview 1

    I look at the Executor mini, I look at the Executor from the movies, and I say, "The mini is not the Executor." The conning tower is in front of the wing vertices on the mini, and the tail section is too short. The "cityscape" portion of the dorsal surface does not angle that sharply at the...

    Have you ever been inspired by...

    The first thing that came to mind when I saw "Mother of Millions" was to use it as another name for Shub-Niggurath, the Black Goat of the Forest With a Thousand Young.

    Prelude to Red Hand of Doom

    The party's aware of the hobgoblin unrest to the south, but with another country between them, the ruling class of this nation isn't too worried. I plan on running them through The Obsidian Eye (Dungeon 120), which I've been dropping hints to as per the Adventure Hooks section. At the end, I'll...

    [Age of Worms] Rules/Options in Play

    Do not allow unrestricted access to the Spell Compendium. When your clerics gain 6th-level spells, they will take bolt of glory, which does (CL)d12 to evil outsiders and undead, as opposed to the spell when it originally appeared in Book of Exalted Deeds, where it only did (CL)d8 to evil...

    Dungeon's new pirates of the caribbean series

    I recall reading somewhere (don't remember exactly) that gunpowder doesn't ignite in Greyhawk.

    Do You Sometimes Purchase RPG Books Just To Read (Not For Play Purposes)?

    I bought Mutants & Masterminds, Vampire: the Masquerade, Mage: the Ascension, and Hunter: the Reckoning, all of which I've never played. I've gotten rid of the Vampire books, but the others are still around. I might even try to run one of them some day.

    Age of Worms: How many casualities have you xp?

    The stone brain in the Hall of Harsh Reflections (where I started the adventure path) caused the death of the party barbarian, and then the giant octopin tore the sorcerer in half with a rend. I allowed them one free true res each, courtesy of the god of the dead, who told them that something...

    Stupidest things PCs/DMs have done

    Apparently, the site went kaboom a few days ago, and now we have our boards back, but as they were at the end of '05.

    Anyone dealt with A1 Books?

    I've only ordered once from A1 via Amazon, and I didn't have any problems with it.

    Caster Character Sheets and Spellboks

    I just ignore it and use a piece of 8.5"x11" lined paper to write my spells on. It has much more space and I can easily edit spells prepared at any time.

    I never thought I could be convinced to pay 120$ on something without first seeing it

    "Admiral! comareddin is about to drop $120 without seeing the product!" "It's a trap!"

    What do you think when DM introduces old PC as an NPC?

    My current game is set in the world of the novel I'm writing, but 55 years later, so all the characters save two are dead. I have a plan to make sure they don't outshine the PCs: "You have to do this on your own. You won't learn anything if I swoop in and solve every problem in the world."

    Lower Mainland 3.5 Game Needs a Player

    I'm running a low-level, biweekly 3.5 campaign, and one of our players dropped out due to inter-player conflict. We've managed to work with three players, but a fourth would be excellent. If you live within driving/transit distance of Delta/Surrey, and want to pick up the reins of an existing...

    V-Con 30 This Weekend

    http://www.v-con.ca/index.php Richmond, BC gets to host V-Con this year. Todd Lockwood is back, and I have to get his signature in my copy of Transitions. It's nowhere near as big as GenCon, but it's getting there. Expect a well-stocked Dealer's Room, tons of thought-provoking discussion...

    Order of the Stick to be in Dragon

    I like that they have a sense of humour in that press release. This is another reason why I want to subscribe to Dragon.
