Fondling gaming products is thankful still not a crime in most states. As long as it's all between consenting adults ... ew, nevermind. Anyhow, in a cruel twist of fate, I ended up going back and buying DragonMech the next week, and the folks at the gaming store couldn't seem to get a copy of the c...

I'm a sucker for first edition Greyhawk, which is why I enjoy the Blackmoor setting so much. Big maps measured in leagues, dusty travelers, and *fairly* low magic. I'd like to cite a list of reasons that make Greyhawk great, but a good bit of my nostalgia can be chalked up to something as simple as:...

Heh. Tough to edit your post when you don't log in. :oops: :oops: :oops: I posted the grogslayers as a joke in another thread, but the appeal of drunken dwarf mechanics was too great to pass up, so I whipped these up last night. An utter and complete lack of playtesting, plus the debilitating influe...

This story broke too close to the printing of DragonMech to be included in the campaign book, but explorers recently discovered documents from the 1st Age of Walkers proving that the original impetus for experimenting with steam power was to build moonshine stills for dwarf miners. The title "c...

Disclaimer for above: A. I'm a newcomer to the boards. Let me know if my contributions duplicate any previous posts. B. I'm also pretty fuzzy about DragonMech balance. It seems that a lot of care has been put into keeping the lid on "modern" sensibilities, so my "sheath-discarding gh...

Strategic D&D Character Tree: This might be totally unmanageable but one idea might be to allow each Player to have “Regent” character, and pool of three other lesser characters. The Regent chooses which of the three to send on missions during the regular gaming session (“This mission can only ...

Good afternoon, Dustin!

There are a few writers in my immediate circle of friends that are dying to write BLACKMOOR fiction. Any plans for novels or anthologies in the near future?

DCC Wish list: Jeff Dee

Remember Jeff Dee ? I think he does mostly superhero stuff now, but his pen and ink work was some of my favorite art from the early days of TSR. Think ... Caves of Chaos --- the fighter up-ending the party thief and dumping out his loot ; the Redbook D&D rules --- big fighter making deal with ha...

Dark Horse: CONAN.

Really good stuff if you're into REH's Conan. Brooding people with big swords are always a hit with me, but I'm pretty predictable that way.

GG products

Back in the day it seemed like I never had enough money to afford all the gaming products I really, really wanted. But then came the 2nd Ed. watershed and that feeling just sort of faded away. Last night I was in the local store and put in my order for BLACKMOOR. And damn if I didn't fondle DRAGONME...
