    [Hivemind] I... I am the Tetris Demon!

    I too own at tetris. I have it on my cellphone so I play at whenever I get a free moment.

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    Question: do they have to be Ogres? I've never really thought of Ogres (even the mage variety) as creatures that would ever fit into any sort of civilization. I have always had a soft spot for the goblinoid races. I think they get a bad reputation. Not all of them are stupid just uneducated...

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    I would have to agree. With the Auselen playing both sides it seems the Stempa will decide the outcome of the war. Whoever they ally with with gain the upper hand. I personally would like to see the Cressians win. They are kind of the 'pet' civilization of this thread.

    [Mor's End Discussion] Administration

    my apologies if this is the wrong thread A thought occured to me today. This might be a little ahead of things but I think there should be an introductory adventure. The working title I came up with is 'Easter Eggs'. The point would be more of a walking tour of the city then an traditional...

    How to Introduce a New Character

    I was a new player joining a group. The DM told me he would work my character in during the first session. I had made a generic fantasy character since I didn't know anything about the campaign world. The DM tells the party they find an ancient statue which sort of vomits my character up...

    Draggin' the Wagon

    I once played in a campaign where we used a big wagon as a mobile base of operations. I don't remember where the idea came from. It just sort of evolved. First we were just using it as transport for the twelve people in the party cause walking sucked. Then the gnome mounted a ballista on it...

    Anyone know/remember Trade Wars or Warlords?

    Me too. I had registered with the intention of running a game oriented BBS. It never did happen.

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    I'm not good at writing so I will leave the actual battles up to you guys. I have thought up some more nasty tricks. One Detect Scrying spell would go a long way to keeping troops alive. Rather then just standing around after you have been found you would know to either change location or set...

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    Oh, RangerWickett! Why hast thou forsaken us? I was wondering what people thought about making the Auslen use Monte Cooks alternate Sorcerers? It would be neat to make them different from the continental Sorcerers. I don't know if adding material from non-canon sources is keeping within the...

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    A few thoughts: How about the Stempa use the khopesh? I don't know what the stats are but they are heavy. Being able to wield one might be a point of pride in a culture that already puts emphasis on being strong. Lycanthropy curse can be cured with belladona. I think once the Ta'Jinn...

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    Between this thread and playing Age of Mythology I must say I'm inspired. I was pondering what each army might use as a signature weapon. I think it would be cooler if the Cressians used spear throwers. The reason spear throwers were replaced by bows is that bows make better hunting weapons...

    Fantasy Arms Race, Round Two

    I was wondering where magic items fit into all this? Is it too soon for them to develop? Today at work I was thinking about how a small group using hit-and-fade tactics could do a lot of damage if they all had at least one level of wizard or sorcerer. A mass of archers is scary but a mass...

    [After FAR] Growing an Underground Civilization

    I am just trying to give a different point of view. For example, in GURPS Fantasy the stereotypical Goblin is a pillar of the community. He is a shrewd businessman and a devout christian. Almost none of the old Goblin culture remains from before they were assimilated by the human empire save...

    [After FAR] Growing an Underground Civilization

    Perhaps humans and gnomes learn to cultivate bio-luminecent plants or animals? Unless the gnomes are Svirfneblin in which case they can see in the dark.

    Taking names: A city for EN World

    Port Entropia sounds cool. I was thinking it should be an interplanar nexus. The problem is that it might be too much like Sigil or that one city from the ELH. How about this: the city exists in a relatively stable part of the plane of dreams. There is some overlap with the three transitive...

    New Homebrew... Thoughts?

    The simplest explaination I can think of is that there are not enough wizards. If wizards high enough level to make difference were a minority they would spend time doing more important things they serving as public transportation. What if magic is not distributed in a uniform fashion across...

    a different psion system and class

    Thanks for the replies. I guess its back to the drawing board. Even if I increase the DC to 10 + pp there still would be too much rolling. I read Mindscapes over the past few days. It rocks! I have not read Codex Mysterium but the word Threshold reminds me of Unlimited Mana by S. John Ross...

    a different psion system and class

    I have not read Mindscapes yet but it is on my list of stuff to get. What I wanted to make was another psion class that used psi powers in a different way. Sort of like a psychic sorcerer but more random the then the PsyWar. I intend for this as yet unnamed class to coexist with both classes...

    How do I sneak my PCs into the ball?

    Thanks for all the input. I think I will make it a costume ball after all.

    How do I sneak my PCs into the ball?

    The players need a key to continue on the quest. It is held in the dungeon of a nobles country manor. There is going to be a large house party tomarrow (game time). What I wanted to have happen was the characters get inside and have a social game session instead of the usual non-stop combat...
