Guardians of the Frontier for CotM
July 2012
Congrats guys!

Looking for perhaps some new games.
June 2012
What kind of things do you think you'd like, Dragoon? There are a ton of science fiction games that support different kinds of sub-genres (space opera, "hard sci-fi," post-apocalypse, etc.) and different gaming styles. Do you have any strong prefe…

Hook, Line and Sinker
June 2012
Whatever the particulars of the hook you use, I think a lot of times, especially when dealing with novice roleplayers, it's good to have the character start somewhere unfamiliar and uncomfortable. Maybe they're a farmboy or -girl who's just arrived …

Changing The White Background
June 2012
This really is a fantastic-looking page, and I've recently had a yen (or a nu-yen) for cyberpunk lately, so it's a fortuitous find.

Best Video On OP
June 2012
Excellent! Thank you so much. I've been in the market recently for something with more power than WMM but maybe not quite as in-depth (or expensive) as After Effects and VideoPad looks like it might do the trick.

Frank, can I ask you how you got that newsreel juddering effect? That really sold the video right there.

Let the edition wars begin!

You really have absolutely no leg to stand on when it comes to complaining about people posting "outrageous" things. Tell us more about your vomit and spit.

"Well -first I stand by everything I said." What a brave stand to take on the internet. "I'm proud of being a walking, talking stereotype!"

Okay, Leonidas. Here goes. "In truth, mere words cannot articulate my disgust with 4e; the system sucks so bad the books ought to be burned. I actually tried on several occasions to play that drek but to say it was only awful would be a tremendo…

Oh my god. "The culture we live in?" Are you going to start yelling at the kids on your lawn next? Take a second and listen to yourself.

Best Video On OP

In all seriousness, though, I think Cthulhu Supremus Est was the first OP campaign I saw with a video and it's stuck with me as an example of something to shoot for ever since.

I'm not sure who has the best, but I cheerfully nominate "my own":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/into-the-lightless-depths as one of the worst.

June 2012
"Wow – Who let the Troll in? Bad Troll, Bad, now that you shared your “insight” go back under your bridge." Nobody's trolling. I really do find the constant hard-on that a certain type of gamer has to demean what other people enjoy ("oh, that's …

If I never have to hear another blithering autist go on about what is or isn't a "real roleplaying game" it'll be too God-damned soon.

For your consideration: Dark Sun
June 2012
Thanks for pointing this campaign out, Black Vulmea. It really is a terrific wiki and I think there's something kind of exhilarating about seeing familiar material filtered through a different culture's point of view. It makes it feel fresh all ov…

Campaign Filters - System vs. Setting
April 2012
edited April 2012
I've noticed this issue as well, but I don't know if a setting option would help; I'd bet that - for instance - most Vampire games take place in the default WW setting, but it would be nice to be able to narrow them down more than that. I think t…

Wanting to start a table top Mass Effect D&D game
April 2012
I've put my space money where my space mouth is and statted up a quick-n-dirty Mass Effect conversion for Traveller, with support for the major races, tech powers, and biotics: http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/destination-zero/

Wanting to start a table top Mass Effect D&D game
April 2012
Dameon, I'd consider investigating the systems Stars Without Number (if you like the old-school D&D vibe) or Traveller to run a Mass Effect game, as they have a lot of material that can be really easily converted to fit the Mass Effect flavor.

Breaking into 4th Edition.
April 2012
"Why not simply wait and see what the new edition has to offer before investing time and $ into a product that is no longer supported?" That's a question you could ask anyone who plays any old edition of D&D ever, including anyone who plays 3…

Huh?! Plus signs underline things now?
October 2010
Well, the problem is that on a character sheet, I want to use individual pluses, like STR 18 (+4) DEX 12 (+1) and what happens is that the pluses disappear and everything between the number 4 and the open parenthesis on the second line become…

Thanks, Duskreign! I've got Live Essentials on the way as we speak. I need to get cracking on this. Your video and now Frank's have set a pretty high bar.

This looks fantastic! What did you edit the movie in? Er, not that I'm looking to muscle in on your territory or anything :whistles:

Thanks, Arsheesh! I was away when you posted on my board and it had been a while when I got back to it so I never had the chance to thank you for your kind words.

Dynamic Character Sheets for Popular Systems

Fluke, I'm with you. God knows I'm lacking in the skills myself, but I would bake cookies for anyone who could do a DST for M&M.
