    [Live Free or Die Hard] Help me stat out John McClane

    I'm very impressed with everyone's efforts, and I will make my own effort soon, but I would like to throw an idea out there that would really explain a lot. I saw the movie tonight and noticed a hint. The gashes in John McClane's head weren't bleeding. I know, I know, you're gonna say that...

    Low Magic Campaigns?

    That would be nice. To reiterate an essential point, there are many ways to accomplish the worthy desire to challenge PCs. One can raise the level of their enemies. For example, Tucker's Kobolds. One can reduce the PC's abilities. Whatever the PCs and GM enjoy... together... in the...

    Low Magic Campaigns?

    No. This suggests that one of the reasons people write is to express themselves. "Ego" is the Latin word for the first person singular, and has been used as a shorthand to describe the solipsistic urge in all of us. If that were all it were about, it wouldn't be worth much. If the urge for...

    Low Magic Campaigns?

    You keep saying that. Are you trying to make some sort of point? You'll have to be more explicit, because I'm just not getting it. Please explain.

    Low Magic Campaigns?

    If it weren't, the author wouldn't bother to write it down. Even when the character is humble and not about showing off, the author is, and that makes all the difference.

    Low Magic Campaigns?

    The first time you made that joke, it was a little humorous, but now you're overdoing it. Joss Whedon is certainly talented, but he can't possibly live up to your expectations... But you knew that. So what did you mean when you said, "Fortunately, even the power-gamers in my group at least...

    How to revitalize an area for gaming? (Specifically Baltimore)

    I am also from Baltimore. And I'm in my 30's. The challenge of finding a gaming group is not small, but I have found one... And need to find another. :D Gamers tend to want to play with people that they know. So... How to get to know people who game? How? Well... One could post a...
