[QUOTE="Maggan, post: 1030204, member: 6616"] [b]My answers[/b] 1.) 4 players and 1 DM is optimal for me. 2.) Once a week. But I would also like two evenings every week to peruse my gamin material, making preparations. Without being disturbed. So, play once per week, prepare twice a week. 3.) Session time should normally be 4 to 5 hours. Once every month I'd like to do a 12 hour stretch, to really crunch through some serious mayhem and intrigue. 4.) 70& crunch, 30% flavour. I can do my own flavour, and I've got about five d20 campaign settings I would like to run (Midnight, Scarred Lands, Swashbuckling Adventures, Ghostwalk, Nyambe), that's enough flavor for me. Interesting rules and the application of said rules (like the thread on monster tactics), that's my cup of tea... or cup of crunch, if you prefer it like that. :D 5.) Difficult. I'm waiting for Skulls&Bones, but I guess, if I can wish for anything... Planescape 3e, in a nice fat exclusive hardback. Would like it to cost around $30, but would pay around $50 or even some more for a really beautiful and solid book. As for other stuff... right here, right now, I would like a book on running dominions, being king and all that. Like the rules in D&D Companion Set, but expanded. Could be a softback, like one of thos Event Books from Malhavoc. Could drop $20 on that. But okay... my real wish: Deconstructing D&D - the book that shows us all the thinking that went on behind the scenes, and which gives solid rules for building spells, classes, prestige classes, feats, skills, monsters, monster's tactics, treasure, the full monty! A fat hardback, I'd pay $50 for a book like that. A sort of Game Designer's Primer (everything I hoped a book titled the Ultimate Games Designer's Companion would have, but alas...). If I was WotC I would never let a book like that hit the streets.:D Cheers! Maggan [/QUOTE]
