So, I've got a trip planned to Hong Kong. (honeymoon actually, go me :) ) And I love to visit the gaming stores of any city I visit. I hear Hong Kong is a big place, so I was hoping there were some helpful gaming souls familiar with the place, who could set me on the right track to the better...

I don't know how available it is these days, but few adventures say pulp like the Masks of Nyarlathotep campaign for Call of Cthulhu. If you use Adventure!d20 rules, which I imagine are more suited to two-fisted action than CoC ever was, the tone of the campaign would change, but the action...

Ooh, the Terror, from the Tick. He's old and broken down, but his rep does half of the work. Plus, apparently he's bad just because he likes to be bad. And, from the live action series, "I'm going to fold you into my pocket and spend you on a whore!" Also, the Hyena, from Mutants and...

Good day, eh? Put down one more from Edmonton, Alberta. My favorite parts of Canadian history are the parts where we don't start any wars. Which is to say, pretty near all the parts. We're also pretty good at choosing which wars to join, and which side to join in on. And when we do get...

How about... Spike the winning d20, football style, jump on the table, and do the Mocking-Jig as an impromptu victory dance, and screech "Dual Wield this, you Nerf Munchkins! How's that for broken! Na na na na, na na na na, hey-ey-ey, Goodbye!" Then flee for your very life. If you stop to...

Don't you DARE stop now.

That's funny. I was running a WFRP campaign with my own version of a fantasy d20 Modern, which worked pretty well. I think the base classes introduced in d20 Modern and improved in Grim Tales really allow you to add your own, non-D&D setting flavor, and the Grim Tales magic system give you...

My only regret about Grim Tales is that it should have come out about a year ago, because my current campaign would have benefitted greatly from this ruleset. I'm running the old WFRP Enemy Within campaign, but I had no stomach to try and fix the WFRP system, so I used d20 Modern to dial down...

Give Girlfriend Backrub and Plan Tomorrow's Game at the Same Time : Could well be the prerequisites for Ghostknights extremely handy Stay Asleep and Keep Entertained feats.

Good point, d4! Heh, heh - point - d4 - pointy... Anyway, I'd expect MnM would allow the wide variety of character types and equipment from Rifts, with a more coherent and fast-moving system. I certainly couldn't recommend a better system, especially if you wanted to run the full mix of...

You can't do that. :p

But he did, Driddle, he did. And it would seem there's nothing you can do about it. And the level of denial you exibit can only lead to head explody. (yours, that is) If the denial doesn't go away, and powerful headaches begin to manifest, seek help. Check your local yellow pages for the...

Well, if they know what's good for sales, the Pilsbury Dough Golem won't make another appearance. After a couple of epic manglings, I'd be curious to see what was actually in the Castle of Zagyg, though.

I'm another one who reads more adventures than I can run, but I do recall reading yours and thinking it read well. I though the chase dynamics were well laid out. The actions of the pursuing party were as well detailed as they could be for a published adventure where the character party would...

You won't stop me from licking the lucky bugbear unless you pry it from my cold, dead hands! :mad: Which shouldn't be long now, what with all the lead and all. And don't be fooled, the new pewter minis aren't for human consumption either. Stick to Mage Knight and Heroclix, which are easier...

Perhaps the land nominally belongs to the Count, but in reality it has been overrun by humanoids, monsters, bandits, rebels, or another political body. The Count would not be giving away a manor that was really worth anything to him, (as the land would not be paying him his taxes) but it may be...

Yep, that crooked house one is great, and it is indeed in the Mansions of Madness adventure anthology. The Hidden Masters and Cthulhu Classics anthologies also have some swell adventures, as does the Pagan Publishing anthology Mortal Coils. Most of the Call of Cthulhu adventures are collected...

I'm fond of the organised crime fencing system myself. Most of the magical goodies players try to unload are of dubious provenance. There's what I would consider a real risk that said items are hot. Thus, it would be difficult to be an honest dealer in magical items. (This is also true for...

I think you've got a great idea here, and you can consider it officially yoinked. I don't much get into the magic item creation myself, what was your methodology? I understand the increased level parts, and I though your laden spell solution was inspired. What were the mechanics you used for...

I've only gotten part way through, but ignorance hasn't stopped me from voicing my opinions yet, and I won't let it stop me now. ;) I find the lack of set alignment refreshing, as the described motivations add more to the character of the creature than an alignment would. Also, the sample...
