I don't think we are in fact in disagreement. Often when the core rules are written first, additions are supplemental. I was (in this instance) talking about...
The problem with GURPS is that it lends itself to over-complication; for example, the third D6 isn't necessary - check the percentage graduation of 2D6s and...
We are thinking of opening up for one or two more players in Overland Park KS and plan on having a public game sometime soon. Check out our group at...
Just to clarify, this is for an in-person game in or near Overland Park KS. We game every other Wednesday night from approximately 6:30 - 11 or so. Sorry for...
My wife is from OP! Nuts, if we come back to see her Mom & I want to get out of the house, I should look you up. ;) Otherwise, I live in Ft. Collins CO & I...
Well, e-mail me next time you are in town. ... to get out of the house, I should look you up. ;) ... nearly every Wednesday, so that won't work for me. :( ... ...
I honestly like Greyhawk, but that's just me. As for "Inspiring," new ideas and that, this will come as heresy to this group, but I also like Ebberon. Might...
<<which d&d inspired series is the most inspiring? dragonlance? forgotten realms? something else. looking to get "in the mood".>> ? Honestly, if you want to...
Thomas: I'm finding reverse engineering to be much simpler if I ignore the 3.0+ stat blocks & replace whatever is there with something from the ODD/ADD/BECM...
... You can find much of Clark Ashton Smith's work on eldritchdark.com. Also, Gary mentioned the stories of Edgar Rice Burroughs, particularly the Mars series;...
you mean old greyhawk novels by gygax/estes, or these new greyhawk classics? ... this group, but I also like Ebberon. ... there's a lot of fun to be had. ... ...
The newer ones. I'm a huge fan of the Justicar and Escalla. :-) But I liked the original modules and adventures from the early 1980's. Tom ... From: erwindougs...
... Dark Sun was always my guilty pleasure. The most inspiration I get though is thinking about past campaigns I played in. -J -- "Badly!" [Non-text portions...
Literature that inspires my games includes: Clark Ashton Smith (especially Hyperborea and Zothique, but most any cycle or Mythos tale by Smith is golden),...
Hi folks.. I'm a big fan of the Gazetteer series for background but have not used much from them in actual game play. I may have the opportunity to do so this...
Hi Andy, Love the Gazetteers--I think they're the best published series for any D&D setting, bar none (I know this sounds like hyperbole, but that's my take). ...
Just thought I would say hello since I joined up today. Our group got tired of playing 3.x so we decided to go old school and break out the Rules Cyclopedia...
Welcome aboard! The Rules Cyclopedia is likely the single best product that TSR ever put out Back in the Day. While most of us here seem to play OD&D (the...
Hello all: Does anyone know if there is a printer friendly version of the cards hosted on this Yahoogroup? I would like to print out a few copies for my...
Which edition? Do you mean the Classic (Rules Cyclopedia version) DM screen? The PDF I have is not 3x5, and they are mostly red in colour. Otherwise I don't...
Bobjester: Yes, those. They are not 3x5 cards, but they are listed as such in the Files section. Since someone made the .pdf I was wondering if a black & white...
Aha! I do have a Word doc of a DM's Screen. It is a Read Only file, so if you want to edit it, you have to select "No" in the pop up window. (At least that's...
Hey all: Many of you may have seen this at K&K or Grognard's Tavern. I am thinking of making it into a play by blog to keep everything nice, neat and concise....
Hi all, ... It will be interesting to see how a campaign progresses on a blog. I suppose it's something that one could get used to, as I did for gaming by...
... Scott: Well, nobody is biting on the wizard specializations, therefore, other than the expanded demi-humans and cantrips/orisons the game will be mostly ...
Actually, the cards in the group's file section ARE 3x5 format, there's just 3 of them per page. Cut 'em out after printing. But no, I never bothered editing...
