    This thing just crushed 3 stretch goals today! 2 hardbacks, a Reaper Miniature I designed a while back (Reaper #2666), and a high quality color topographical style map by Peter Bradley! Outstanding!

    James M. Ward to Pen Exclusive Adventure

    Heads up... this just broke the Stretch goal for the players guide to the haunted highlands (90+ pages) and the Return to Haunted Highlands Campaign Book (250+ pages) as individual hardbacks. Depending on your pledge you could end up with a good fist full of reaper miniatures, the cookbook...

    James M. Ward to Pen Exclusive Adventure

    Lot of stuff in this book... the Troll Chief hit most of it up in his post. The artwork on the cover to the players guide is by an amazing up and coming discovery "Artem Shukayev", he's only 16 years old! He has more work for the interior of these books too! Look out world! He did artwork...

    Tiamat Tile Mapper Beta Live

    Congrats! I saw this software suite the other day and I have to say it looks amazing as does the concept behind it. Back in the day I used to insist on getting Ed's maps for all my books! Ed's the man. Now others can use your service o get Ed Bourelle quality maps for their home games and that...

    D&D 4E Essentials isn't 4.5e, but is 4e as we know it over?

    Hate to quote myself but I guess the discussion (or my part in it) ends here. Have a nice day.

    D&D 4E Essentials isn't 4.5e, but is 4e as we know it over?

    To each their own. As I said, not gonna re-fight the edition wars. You are right because you say you are. I am right because I know I am! See what I mean ;) ? Thats the de-evolution of any constructive conversation about gaming or game editions. Again, I'm hoping essentials is a shocking...

    D&D 4E Essentials isn't 4.5e, but is 4e as we know it over?

    So, your going with that then? ;) Good luck with that! They sort of have a track record or saying a lot of things a number of times that turn out to be askew to the reality that gamers/designers/developers/fans later find themselves in. They said numerous times that 3.5 was "really no...

    D&D 4E Essentials isn't 4.5e, but is 4e as we know it over?

    Then again... I know it's been a million years since I've bothered to post on en world. Been more of a lurker really as 4e has rolled out, made its splash "changed the face of gaming forever" and so on and so forth as all the promises went back when CP and BS gave their pronouncements of its...

    2008 ENnie Awards Nominees Announced!

    Thanks! Speaking for myself, I am humbly honored by the two nominations for City of Brass! Unable to attend the awards show this year as my daughter starts Kindergarten same week as the start of Gen Con (That Thursday no less!). I gotta be the good daddy this year and pick her up from...

    D&D 4E 4e and Computer Games

    It will be interesting to see what they do with Fallout 3. It's a "3d shooter" that has turned base elements where you can pause and change your action/activity in mid stride. Lost Oddyssey uses a turn based mechanic for combat. I like the graphics and feel overall of the game, and the story...

    D&D 4E 4e and Computer Games

    Correct, and agreed. Not wanting to link link link but look it up for yourself. Hasbro has the video game rights, those are licensed to Atari/Infogames through 2017 for a mere pittance of 19 million dollars. If you think thats wrong/foolish, again look at the dollars raked in by COD4 and the...

    D&D 4E 4e and Computer Games

    A D&D online enabled computer game for Xbox360, PS3, and PC that played as well as Call of Duty 4 with optional downloadable dungeons for multiplayer play and 6-8 party adventure crawls would rock. As would a similar level-able Call of Duty 4 system for leveling a chacter to 30 in a 10 on 10...

    Has 4e given everyone writer's block?

    The Throttle... IF a GSL ever actually materializes I no doubt will be focusing a bit on 4e, depending on how I feel about it after reading the actual rules instead of the voluminous and heated speculations. Prior to the actual 4e announcement I had a solid amount of product I was working on...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Alpha "crunch" discussion

    I noticed a couple "anti" power bumps that I thought were nice. One in particular was that they brought down power attack to the realm of sanity again. Add your strength bonus vs. adding your level, double your strength bonus for two handed is a smarter way to go. I argued this in that so...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Alpha "crunch" discussion

    I like: The CR/EXP breakdown chart. I've always hated the CR system from 3.x. I think its crap. Turning rules were also crap, so the Pathfinder change is nice. It isn't new territory to use turning abilities in a different way. White Wolf started the ball rolling with Scarred Lands and WOTC...

    14 year old girl wants to join my game

    Bring Farrah Back! (Loved Gamers!) Also a teacher. Had a minor (16) and female play in a game for over a year. It was cool because her sister and brother in law (both adults over 20) were at every session and she was never her alone. My wife also plays in our group so everything was on the up...
