The Gaming Den

I've never watched Buffy and never played Arkham Horror but this looks interesting. Could you put up the game's Sunnydale map or something? Some visual aids would be neat. Also, maybe you could reflavor Buffy's evil objective. "Die" sounds like it should be a free action. Maybe, "Die ...

Well, unusual weapons could put the Tome Fighter's Weapons Training and Pack Mule to good use (assuming the exotic weapons have effects that are sufficiently interesting, which I'd appreciate clarification on and I'm not too optimistic about) and I could always refluff them to fit my campaigns someh...

Ah, okay. Thanks. And some skill checks I guess.

Does a Tome Monk have any reason not to dump DEX?

It's Pathfinder, but it's also an item book that probably isn't too difficult to use in a 3.5 or Tome game. I'm mainly concerned with whether or not it's a good item book.

I guess each move could be interpreted as a scaling feat, alternate class feature, spell, etc.

Okay, Magic Item Compendium's off the list. Anyone read Pathfinder's Ultimate Equipment? That's meant to occupy the same niche right?

Sorry for some reason my post isn't submitting. I've been trying for over half an hour and am getting sleepy.

I haven't considered buying a plot or setting book just yet, but thanks, I'll keep that in mind for when I do. I'll add Monster Manual 2,3 and Fiend Folio to the wish list, and print out the better entries from pdfs of the later ones. The free printer friendly srd pdfs I've found online are making t...

Also, as of 5th generation, TMs are no longer single-use. Awesome. I've been out of the loop for a while. So, what are TMs exactly in D&D Land? note that there's no more "Red Dragons are immune to Fire and take double from Cold", Red Dragons now have Fire and Dragon Pokemon Traits - s...

I know very little about ordering stuff by mail. I'll ask around, I might know a guy who knows a guy or something.

I'm rather fond of nebezial's art Some samples: Resting Adventurers and a lot of dragons http://th07.deviantart.net/fs9/PRE/i/2006/145/4/8/wanderers_of_Ravine_by_nebezial.jpg Conan and Blonde Girl vs Tentacles http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/150/f/e/conan_road_of_kings_2_cover_by_nebezial-d3h...

Awesome. Was hoping for more D20 Pokemans. Evolution stones should also work on Elves. Perhaps Drow could become Driders this way or Scorrows using a different stone. A mechanism for learning new moves would be cool. Are you planning on converting all Pokemon moves into SLAs? Perhaps they could unlo...

The Wood Elf pdf of the srd here seems kinda cool. Printing and photocopying this will tide me over till I get the actual books whenever an opportunity opens up. I'll check for used, thanks. I'm playing Tome with some Pathfinder stuff (e.g. skill system, some of the new spells, unlimited cantrips, s...

@Shrapnel: Ouch. Hoping SCIENCE! can fix it someday, or at least give you bionic legs.

@Maxus: Happy birthday?

I like vinyl mats, like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQrgTI6ah4E Wet-erase markers only. Not dry erase. That looks pretty cool. I'm sold. Print out the tgd Tomes pdf. It's nice to flip through for inspiration and the world building segments (the dorfs vs goblins, different kinds of evil...

That sucks. Some sort of anti bad roll mechanism like this one would be cool (though that one's impractical for D&D at least as success probability depends on too many things. A +3 (capped at 20 so it's roughly equivalent to a reroll) to the next roll for every failed roll might be viable, but s...

I live in a country where TRPGs don't exist, and where you can't order stuff online due to delivery issues. I can get pdfs fine though. Once in a while, relatives either go abroad or visit from abroad so I figured I could get some stuff that way. So what should I buy for 3.Everything? Dice is a no b...

The thing is, men are idiots when it comes to dealing with women, by and large. I wouldn't even say that's "rape culture" because the idea completely misses the point. It isn't about rape. It's about not having the socialization necessary to deal with that stuff in a mature and comfortabl...

I'm enjoying it because one reason I stopped playing for a while was consistently horrible luck with the dice. Sorry, I don't follow. That and the group had slowly gotten...weird. Half of them were all "YEEEEAH PATHFINDER" The rest of the Internet seems pretty happy with it, so I guess it...

http://www.tgdmb.com/viewtopic.php?t=158&view=next See if that answers some questions for you. Also, the original TGDMB was on BBBoy, but their customer support sucked, so we moved to this site in a joint effort with Nifty (also a BBBoy original) in 2008. Yeah, that sums it up pretty much. So w...

Occasionally while browsing old threads, I find mentions of something called the Nifty forums here, where many posters were familiar. The place seems to have been suddenly abandoned in 2008. This site has posts as far back as 2003, though many users have apparently joined around 2008, wondering if t...

I've been enjoying the hell out of a Planescape game I've been in, with Koumei and Meikle and 8headeddragon DMing. Details? I had a tremendous amount of fun with a relatively short game of Gamma World, with a three-man team of "Napoleon, The Blob, and half the X-men". I got literally thou...

Mouth ulcers have plagued me for as long as I can remember. Mouth wash can numb the pain temporarily, at the cost of stinging like crazy for around a minute. However, I'm rather fond of putting ice cubes in my mouth to numb them though, which also works for excessively spicy stuff if necessary. I un...

There's some here. Don't know if these are the ones you're looking for though.
