I've been looking at a few OSR systems as of late for a potential campaign, and I still see there's fair bit of emphasis placed on retainers/henchmen/followers, etc and on strongholds. From back in the 2e days when I first started playing, we rarely delved into using retainers or built...

Wow, has anybody here been watching this one? USA played the whole thing last night, and I was impressed. I wasn't even intending on watching it! I just was flipping through the channels, caught it about 20 minutes into the first part, and was there for the next 5 1/2 hours. Definitely went...

So I'm looking at Fiery Dragon's website, and I look at Upcoming Products, and tucked in there is a little blurb about "Of Sound Mind 2", with further info to be revealed later..... ...so what's the scoop, Piratecat? :D

Okay, a spin-off from the Worst Movies ever thread. Everyone's got one. It's the movie that you can't stand that everyone else on God's green Earth seems to love. Mine just happens to be Ghostbusters. It wasn't funny when I was 12. It wasn't funny when I watched it when I was 17. And it...

Very cool news! I wonder how many studio execs got down on their hands and knees and begged him to come back? ;) http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=598&e=1&u=/nm/20031208/film_nm/arts_rings_director_dc

There was a thread a few weeks ago talking about how well "Master and Commander" would portray the characters of Aubrey and Maturin. Ebert addresses it to some extent in his review: http://www.chicagosuntimes.com/output/ebert1/wkp-news-master14f.html

I just moved to the area recently, and I'm hoping to get into a game somewhere around the Leesburg-Reston-Tyson's Corner area. I'm close enough to the Game Parlor in Chantilly that if anyone games there, I'd be able to get there no problem. If anyone has any openings, let me know!

I'm curious how far folks are going to take their campaigns with the new rules. It doesn't seem like there's an upper limit, unless it's self-imposed. Also, a lot of the feats and skills could shift a campaign pretty radically, to the point that your PCs are nearly demigods in terms of power...

For a spell whose target is Creature Touched, can the caster use it on himself? I got a little confused since targets for certain spells are different: i.e. One creature vs. character vs. creature touched, etc., etc.

I notice a lot of people disregard this feat as it allows you to block 1 missile attack per round. Well, that's great unless you are up against an archer with multiple attacks or just the Rapid Shot feat. Has anyone seen any variants on this feat that allow the character to deflect multiple...

Does anybody know if there is a Skeleton template out there somewhere? I wanted to include skeletal animals in an adventure, and I'm pretty sure I had heard of this being a template.
