perhaps they'll have the opportunity to bring in a tiefling to replace a dead character, once they've moved into more cosmopolitan areas.

You know what that says to me? Level adjustment.

I was in the FLGS yesterday and they had a poster for the new D&D minis set. Has anyone else noticed the flesh-tone four armed Ettercap?

Also, Pig Farmer rules!

While it is certainly sad to see an old friend go, I think this provides a solid opportunity to build up a new game world and start making new classics that will be fondly remembered and looked back on 30 years from now.

Heck, WotC even owns the Blackmoor IP and isn't willing to sell it back to Dave Arneson and it's been nearly 20 years since any Blackmoor material has been produced under the D&D name.

Wasn't there a D20 Blackmoor book out a few years back?

I really want to know what text goes with that clockwork heart. Clockwork bionics at last!

Forget 4th Edition! For that matter, forget 3.x! I'm gonna make my own game, with blackjack, and hookers! In fact, forget the game!

I haven't seen anything from WotC for myself that states that "Save or Die" spells are going away. Instead, Saving Throws are going away, so that a Save or Die spell becomes a Hit or Miss spell for the DM? So, what, if the DM rolls high the character dies? One things for sure, players are going to get a whole lot more nervous when the DM starts rolling behind the screen...

Potions of Jump for the Gummi Bears, but for humans they become Potions of Bull Strength.

Here's one that has been driving me nuts, and it's super vague to boot. All I can remember is that theres a creature killing people. One of the people has a disease, and so they make spears with his blood in needles on the ends to kill the creature. The spears don't work so well, so the hero shoves the diseased guy into the creature. Having written that out, jeeze thats vague.

Anyway, I haven't thought about these movies in years, and you guys have pulled out some real classics. I remember the Eliminators was like my favorite movie when I was a kid. I saw it at Blockbuster some years ago and forced my friends to watch it with me. Ouch, that movie did not age well at all...
