The Mentzer rules (and rules Cyclopedia) recommend that clerics follow a 'great and worthy cause', nary a mention of god. Obviously, not all versions of TSR D&D mandated gods.While I frequently start top-down as well (for my own campaigns),…
Numenera has piqued my interest a bit, but not enough so far to back it. Please let me know, Trey, what you eventually decide and why. My only reason for asking that is just because I am curious :) I am intrigued by the simple character cre…
Congratulations to Brother Damien. Thank you, Trey.Brother Damien is only doing his humble duty to obey his superiors, but he is very happy o do so :) yes, Kyrinn, it is!I am glad Brother Damien survived to become an NPC ... something I ten…
Ha! Very cool. That's something few paladins have attempted, I'd imagine. I was wondering how it would go for Sir Parcifal... at least they didn't burn anything else down as they have been so fond of before! I've got more I want to blog abo…
If I'm not mistaken, that's the Hogshead edition, which has the old Volume I: Mistaken Identity and Volume II: Shadows over Bogenhafen in the same book. So you've now got the first three TEW adventures, even though the book is only presente…

Man, I wish I was in this campaign! I really enjoy reading game accounts by really creative DM's. Lately as a player I've been involved in a whole lot of dungeon delves. I'd love being in more of a "world" setting. Sounds like fun! What Geo…
Really cool stuff! :) Using real-world geographical features not only saves time but lends some serious authenticity and realism to the terrain. Love the giant beaver idea! Yeah, we had some wild stuff roaming around in years gone by. @ Geo…
Although I've only played Squad Leader a handful of times, my friend Nick has been collecting everything SQ since we were at school (several decades ago) and whenever I've been round to inspect his latest purchase it's always the maps that
Frak, I missed it or forgot...what ruleset are you using? @ Bard: Thanks! I hope the players are having as much fun as I am ;)@ Anthony: I am using a modified OSRIC. The Hit Point system is almost a straight ripoff from Arduin. I have an af…
I gamed with folks that had the Mayfair CSIO stuff, and I think I had Briarwood for a while, as well, back in the early '90's, but it has since been vanished. I purchased my first Mayfair set for 5 bucks in '90 at some discount store... I w…
Thanks for the heads up, this looks like exactly the kind of resource I always looked for while I was getting my history degree! Not for the purpose of helping with school.. for the purpose of gaming, of course :) A history major like yours…
