I've had a bad headcold all weekend. I'm not even sure what day this is now. Who won the NFL games? I had bets riding on . . . something somewhere about something. *feverish* I've tried almost everything to get rid of this cold. Now, I'm going to try tacos. If that doesn't work . . . well, I'll stil...

I've putzed around with fireball in my time. I had basically two answers to the "blowing up the entire dungeon" side-effect, both involving changes to the spell as written: 1) Instead of a sphere, it only explodes in a hemisphere. (This is my preferred way to imagine a fireball anyway! Onl...

I know so little about 4E that my rants would be a waste of time.

I come by every day or three, but I have nothing to say that wouldn't sound like someone whining for sympathy. :twisted: I can't write! All I can do is respond to someone else. Sitting alone at a keyboard, I got nothin'. I have stacks of notes over 12 feet tall if I piled them all atop each other, b...

I've got B1-9 In Search of Adventure, and I think it lost more than it gained. (Did it even gain anything?)

Have you tried art school students? You might be able to find one willing to do it as a "project" for one of their classes. Something like "Reproducing Other Artists' Styles" or whatever.

Welllll, it was partly 2E, but remember -- 2E had a lot of optional rules! :lol: Parts of it were simple 1E write-ups, so it required fewer stats. Some was simple 2E, so slightly more stats. And some of it was as friggin' complicated as you could get with 2E! And I also had many houserules. My game ...

...it was the Gummi Bears. :? The little ogre's name was Toadwort, or Toady for short.

In case you've forgotten who the Gummi Bears were: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eni0LHAS464

I'm unhappy with the silly "maze" level that was meant to separate the castle from the dungeon. It was one of the last maps I drew; up until then I just described it as a confusing maze that required a guide to lead the PCs safelyl through. I know one day I would have to supply an actual m...

It ain't copyrighted, if that's what you mean! :lol:

(Just don't used Level 6 -- I stole parts of that level from other sources, like Dungeon Magazine and the 1E DMG.)

Yes.

More about it? It's Level 5 of my major dungeon, which I've been working on since around 1983 I suppose. Parts of it have been flooded from something on Level 4. Flooded areas are represented by blue -- light blue for shallower areas players can wade through, darker areas where the water would be ov...

Actually, I drew it in Dexxa Paint It (copyright 1988) in nine sections. Then I converted it (via several complicated steps) into Widnows Paint so I could connect the sections together into one image, which I then converted to a .jpg file. It's Level 5 of the dungeon I posted before in the...uh, the...

That's my uncle Mike. He always did have weird fingers. We called him "Wormfinger." The whole story is quite long, but the rest has been sealed by the courts. :wink:
