LANDFALL The smell of heretical burnt flesh contrasts sharply with the smell of refuse that has washed up on the beaches to either side of the rough wood dock that the “Writ of Domination” has been tied up to. The strange smell of rotting vegetation from the jungle, untreated sewage from...

All right, it's time to bring The Lord to the primitive heathens of Arkravia. The Pope of the Namothic Church has blessed Empress Mertaviana of Cartagie's pledge to bring the light of civilization to the benighted heathens of the newly discovered continent of Arkravia, as well as to bring the...

Well, I've finally decided to get off my butt and put out a new version of Year of the Zombie. Unsurprisingly and somewhat unimaginatively I've decided to list it as "Reloaded" when I finally do it. The big thing I've decided to do is rework a lot of d20 Modern. I'm going to be getting rid of...

This review might take those of you with a 100 baud modem awhile to load up, but that's your own fault. It's 1983, so buy a 300 baud modem and shut up. B1 In Search of Adventure is the first module for D&D I've managed to find at K-Mart, and they only wanted $2.95 for it, so I scooped it up and...

I just got back from K-Mart, where I picked up "Face of the Enemy" for Star Frontiers. Personally, I was a little surprised they wanted $4.95 for a module of all things. Seriously, almost $5? What the :) :) :) :) were they thinking? That's a 12 pack of soda, a pack of cigarettes, and a gallon of...

The final tribe of barbarians has been subdued, their lands absorbed into the Old Kingdom, and Pelor's glory spreads from the Skyraker Mountains to the Nastell Ocean. The God King Ostrak, anointed by Pope Reginald XXI, had declared that the Old Kingdom ruled all of the known world, that all of...

That's right, it's the return of Saduul Cortez, baby! The campaign went on haitus while the DM served some time in the desert, but now he's back, and last Saturday I vacated the DM seat at a good pause point for my campaign, and he took the reins back. Now, as you may or may not recall, when...

Recently, Issue 5 of the Survivor's Guide to Risen America was released. Technically, it was Issue 6 if you count Issue Zero (Which is a free taste to get you hooked), and it's been going for about six months now. Now, I know a lot of people are wondering just how far the story line intends on...

OK, I'm running a game for the two ladies in my life. It's a mystery/romance game right now. Set in Waterdeep. I have: FRCS Magic of Faerun Monsters of Faerun City System 2E Grey FR Boxed Set Waterdeep and the North Volo's Guide to Waterdeep I plan on picking up City of Splendors. Any...

OK, I've done some modifications, and figured this thing could use some feedback. After the Power Armor section is done, I'll probably work on robots and vehicle. So, take a look, and tell me what you think. If you really feel obnoxious (:)) post weapons or armor developed with this system.

OK, I've finally gotten enough nagging, that in addition to placing the new rules for creation of item, I'll be splitting the Nova Wars thread into easily identified packets, which will also make it easier for me to update them CYGNUS CORPORATION SERVING THE CONFEDERACY'S INDUSTRIAL NEEDS FOR...

Tim's Note: Yeah, this is a on-the-fly creation system, designed to give flexibility and true Space Opera-style ships. With Inertia Compensators, Gravity Pumps, armor, superstructures, massive weapons batteries, forceshields, etc. Superstructure: The Superstructure is rated between 1 to 30. A 1...

Tim's Note: These are "You're about to get your F***ing skull beat in!" armors. While d20 Future usually would classify these as mini-mechs, I absolutely abhor d20 Future's mecha rules, so I threw them out. Another thing to remember is something I stated in another thread. These weapons and...

Tim's Note: There are two classifications of armor in the Nova Wars universe. Powered and Non-Powered Armor. While the line does blur, as Non-Powered Armor has a powerplant designed to keep the suit and it's onboard equipment running, Powered Armor is designed wholly for offense, has...

OK, I was sitting down last night and playing with the weapons from my Nova Wars campaign, and figured it might be time to place some here. If you remember, Nova Wars is more Space Opera than gritty realism, so the science is more gobbledygook than anything realistic. Having said that: Enjoy...

The following is a store, approximately 4 weeks into the Rising. The vehicles outside the store need keys, but do run, a rarity in the post-Rising world. If all the tanks are drained, the PC's can get a total of 56 gallons of fuel from the tanks. The police care is stripped of weapons and trunk...

OK, since I've taken the thread Work Intensive Guide to World Building pretty far, I figured I'd PDF the first part of it, and put it up. No, no artwork. Artwork costs money. This is free. That means no money. No money means no artwork. But besides that, any comments? Remember, this is only...

OK, all thanks to Buttercup for putting this in a Word Document so we can revive this. Now, if I can just get a moderator to change the title of the other thread to "Creating a World" or something like that... Anyway, without further ado, there is the old thread... Tim Willard’s rules of good...

Now, some of you may remember this from before the "Great Board Crash of '06" complete with the diagrams and fun stuff. I can't remember everything I said there, but seeing as I have an entire world to create for a group of new players (Only 2 out of the 7 people have ever played before two...
