Ambiguously Gendered Return of 'What is the Hivemind?'

How sad...the hobgoblins were not evil either.

I'm not sure that fact has sunk in for everyone, though.

A Planescape fan, maybe? I'm trying to convince a friend of mine to run a Planescape PbP on EN World.

Big Planescape fan. I ran a campaign between Sigil and the Outlands that lasted for 4 years. I didn't buy every singly boxed set, as I didn't have enough dough, but I loved the premise.

I... really don't like Mongoose. I've never seen anything balanced in any of their books. Since that was my first experience with 3rd party material, it really soured me.

How sad--there's so many great third party publishers out there. Malhavoc is excellent, Necromancer Games is good, Green Ronin I hear is awesome and I've been meaning to buy some stuff from them, Swords and Sorcery has put out some good stuff, Fantasy Flight had some really neat stuff I got on sale, Expeditious Retreat's Magical Medieval Society was excellent, EN Publishing gave me all their books for free on GM's Day, and they were good...I could go on and on probably

The Diaglo Effect, no doubt

Too funny. Well, I gotta hit the road early tomorrow so I'm off to bed. Chat you folks tomorrow (hopefully).

That's somewhat upsetting--I would have hoped the pro-lifers could have done something if that was the case (I thought that everyone agreed that it wasn't evil but wanted it dead because it was in the way)

Then help me convince Amy Kou'ai to run a Planescape PbP!

I guess it's possible I don't give everyone enough roleplaying credit, but that's my take on it. Some people weren't very vocal either, though, so who knows?

Two books I'd reccomend if playing it as 3E: Manual of the Planes and the Planar Handbook. You might also want to look into Aasimar & Tiefling by Green Ronin.

I know she has MotP, but not sure about the Planar Handbook. I think she prefers the 2e material she has--she doesn't seem to like how the Planar Handbook describes Sigil, but she's spending a lot of time converting the factions too.

Hmm....So its either non-good or else incredibly stubborn in the face of counterevidence?
