Its official: Eberron rocks

[Knight Otu]

A 32 page hardcover? Can't imagine that's correct.... Looks cool though.

That's funny. I didn't even look at the product information. If it were hardcover, we'd get more cover then contents!

I shudder to think what I paid for all this, because I sold THE LOT for A$50, which is about US$35.

I'm sure there were alternatives to selling them to the heroin-addicted second-hand-bookstore-guy and his dizzy girlfriend, but I'm time-destitute these days.

e-Bay!

Put me in the "picked up on the mass telepathy wave" Eberron has a lot of concepts that I have been wanting to fiddle with in my own campaigns, technomagic and crystals, psionics and action points.

If anything, the game world shows a hand picking a few solid rules (action points and psionics) can add a lot of flavor. Either way, I'll either run Eberron or mine it for ideas.

The only sad news is that I've pretty much burned out on DnD psionics, so I might use GR's Psychic HB instead.

I too am an Eberron victim, I was waltzing into the bookstore and there it was in the new release section, 30% off. Resistance was futile. I folded like a cheap suit. In a couple of weeks, when the book is put in lockdown in the back of the store it will be safe for people to shop at Hastings again.

they're lame, dude =)
"Sea of Rage" is fine for a nickname or something, but come on now, do you think that it sounds right for an actual name? Did the ancients of eberron go out and say "Hey, i think this ocean should be the sea of lost souls. that way, we can just say, Hey ma, i'm going with billy and gromlech over to the beach of lost souls for a picnic. If we don't come back, please res us." It's silly, and we all know it =)

Have you looked a names of real places...Hell's Kitchen, the Great Dismal Swamp, Death Valley, The Dead Sea...

yeah and none of those places actually have monsters living in them.... though Hell's Kitchen has a dude in a red suit.

What the -! WotC is doing advenuters again?! Nevermind, IT SHALL BE MINE!

Hmm, now if they could just convert all their old 1e and 2e adventures and realize that people BUY these things, WotC would have all my money.

 

[Kesh]

Heck, I was going to buy it anyway. Seeing the inside just cemented that for me.

Personally, I want to know how "Living Spells" work ever since seeing them in the art gallery on the WotC website.

No, it's a place in New York City, doofus.

If you never see a calm day on the "Sea of Rage" and you can never swim in the water because of the fierce undertow, then, gee the place might be deserving of the name, wouldn't it?

How much do you want to bet "Mediterranean" with "terran" in the middle translates
in Latin to Middle Earth Sea or something?

I *think* IIRC, that is correct.

He made a tongue in cheek reference to a well known comic book character. That you didn't get the joke isn't his fault.
