Am I the only one who thought about how much dead space (no pun intended) on every page of the PDF? The margins on either side come out to about 40% of the page width. 48 pages should be something like 30, or less.

It is already taking over the city. When I last went (2014) we had 7 people log on at noon ET to get a room. The system either timed out or the rooms were gone while we were clicking on the buttons to reserve them. It was a nightmare. We ended up 7 miles out and on the shuttle line. That...

I cried a little inside as my inner gamer shriveled up. It read like an article from the cheerleader on the school paper who played DnD to fit in. Yes, I may sound harsh, but I hurt inside right now. This article made me feel dirty for playing DnD. Edit: My one positive from this article was...

I think the idea of not telling the PC the formula for every magic item is a good thing. 3E made magic items into WalMart or Betty Crocker. You could either pick them up at the corner store or you could just whip up a batch of +3 Flaming, Dancing Longswords with just the outlay of time and...

My problem is not that they made them available to people overseas, just that they told the game shops that they were "exclusive" then went back on that. I might have even been OK with it if they had said "we will make them available online 3-6 months after game shops". I think that the...

I agree that this change, while good in the short term for the consumer, is bad long term for the consumer and for the retailer. WoTC has increased their sales on this product by presenting the books as retail only to the retailers. They then changed their mind in hopes of selling to people...

I would like a key To the Neverwinter game To play for the fun

1e/2e IIRC, AC could not be better than -12 (-10 for PCs, -12 for Gold Dragons). This meant at some point you hit almost every swing. In 1e, if you needed less than 1 to hit then the die roll was added to damage (footnote in one of the charts). Saves were less "attack" and more "defend". I...

Remember, a 2nd level character only needs about an 11 to hit. But then, a 15th level character still needs about an 11 to hit... I have gotten to where I feel like every encounter is the same. The monsters have different descriptions, but they are all starting to feel the same. I know...

Someone did not validate their use input correctly. Shame, shame. Little Bobby approves. xkcd: Exploits of a Mom

I've looked at a few in the past but none of them were trivial to get up and running. I am interested in how they are now. I just don't have the time to do a lot of additional set up for games. The adventure itself is enough work now that I have a job and family. We have been just using a...

Which type of 40k are you running? Inquisitorial? - Inquisitor by Ian Watson - Eisenhorn Saga by Dan Abnet (Malleus, Xenos, and Hereticus) - Ravenor Series by Dan Abnet (post Eisenhorn) Marines? - Space Marine - Angels of Darkness - Deathwing - Horus Rising, False Gods, and Galaxy in...

Bah, double post.

We have a weekly board game night at our FLGS in Augusta, GA. People show up early afternoon and we game until about midnight. The board games range from mil strat, euros, classics (not monopoly types), cards (dominion and such), etc. We even have MtG, Malifaux, Warmachine, 40k, and DnD 3x...

I feel left out. Alea Publishing didn't even make the list... However, we plan to release 4E products. Not just rehashes. We have new stuff in the planning stages as well as updates to some of our current products.

You should have a "special" signed and numbered set of your books. That would give you a whole new set of ads you could do. Then your ads could be in rotation with each other.

Heh. Dang you and your solo advertising campaign. I have just purchased your book.

Alea Publishing has not received one either.

Correct. We had our first for sale product coming out (read finalized) right before 3.5 released. We opted to get the 3.5 material and do a conversion/update. No mandate, just good business sense. Mind you, we also put 3.0 compatible stuff in the product and labeled it "3.0 compatible".

Heh, you figured out our secret plan... Nah, just us publishers giving back to the community that has supported us for so long. Not that any of us would want you to not buy some of our other stuff, but I don't think that is the primary goal for most of us. Download. Enjoy. Tell your friends.
