Just looking at the recent Pathfinder and Gamemastery items brings to mind several items that need to cards: ball gown, fool cap, gnome leggings, leather skirt, leather vest, harem girl costume, belt pouch, goblin hood, and as always chainmail bikini.
Item cards are great. I just bought a whole bunch for my new campaign. My only complaint: We are in serious need of a chainmail bikini card.
This is one of the best adventure modules that I have ever purchase. It is beautiful and well-written. Everything makes sense and there are many tips on how to run it effectivly. If you were not sure about purchasing the Gamemastery Modules, try this one. I really like the Designer Notes feature. I can't wait for the next module, and I'm glad I purchased the subscription for them.
You want to see jumbled up geography in your town, try living in Vegas. I've seen 20,000 movies and TV shows set here and never once has the geography been correct. Add to that things like on CSI, where everytime they have to talk to a witness he's in Henderson. Henderson is the second largest city in Nevada and has its own big police force, who could question witnesses. Whatever you do, if you come to Vegas, don't stay in the Tangiers Hotel. The (fictional) hotel is where 90% of the murder victims are found.
My first Dragon was in the 30s. I think #36. It had a snowman with a machine gun on the cover.
Mine isn't showing Charter member either, but am I missing something? Is there some benefit to being a charter member? Oh, well duh. Answered right above.

I'm really going to miss Dungeon and Dragon. I've been reading them since issue 1 and issue 16 respectively. I don't think that anyone has mentioned it so far, but I'm going to especially miss the cartoons. I'm looking forward to Pathfinder because my favorite adventures by far in Dungeon are the campaign arcs, and it's going to be very cool to see the new world unfolding the way that Greyhawk did back in the day. People have made some excellent points on both sides. Pathfinder sounds like a good value in relation to similar format adventure books put out by WOTC. But on the other hand, I don't buy one of those each month. I've got enough subscription credit for nine issues of Pathfinder. If its as great as I'm hoping it will be, I'll work very hard to find the money for the subscription (and I want some Game Mastery modules set in the same world). And trust me, as a school teacher, my gaming budget is not a big one. I think we'll all just have to wait and see when the first volumes start arriving.
Are these modules set in the new Pathfinder world, and specifically is "Kobald King"?
I was reading all of the posts on this thread, while waiting for my copy to arrive. It finally did, but by this time I was busy reading Harry Potter. Now that I know who the half-blood prince is, I have finally sat down and read Cities of the Realms. I am not a big fan of Greenwood, at least his books. I however did enjoy this article. I enjoyed the flavor detail and the images. I don't think I'll have any problem adapting this city to my own campaign world (which is what I do with everything, since I don't use Eberron, Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, or any other stock campaign as is). I can understand not wanting this to be a monthly series. I did get tired of so many dragons of the realms a few years ago, but I think a couple of Cities of the Realms per year would be great.
Can't believe I'm going to top the list, but.... 45 last November. Been playing since 1977-- white boxed set. I remember how excited I was when the 1st Edition PH Hardbound came out.
My players made it through the adventure without any deaths. They made quite a few trips (three, I think), and spent a good deal of time in between in town interacting with the NPCs and of course healing up. By the end, when they reached the underwater portion, we had 1 3rd level and 3 2nd level characters. |
