Friday’s Random Thoughts
I wish Bards were more like the musician assassins in Kung Fu Hustle. If you fix that in 4e Wizards then I’ll happily throw more money at you as I pre-order the new edition.
John is starting a new Darwin’s World campaign for us, and I love that new campaign smell. The smell of freshly printed character sheets, nely rolled stats, and the fear that the game will end abruptly due to impregnation by giant invisible spiders.
Edit:Â The above has happened more than once, and taught me that either random encounter tables are evil, or game masters should not watch Alien immediately prior to running a game.
I’m halfway through Feist’s Magician: Master book, and I love it. I’m both surprised and delighted by the amount of fluff in the book which closely mirrors background lore in my campaign world, Orroth.
Yax has once again proved his brilliance by ranking me as the twenty-second best RPG site on the net.
Time For Feedback
I’ve been posting long enough now that I think many of you have an idea of what to expect from me. What I’d like to hear from each of you is what you’d like to see more of, or what you’d like to see less of. What haven’t you seen yet that you’d like to?
This is your opportunity to have direct input through providing these ideas and suggestions. The only thing that I ask is that you keep your comments as constructive as possible - if you are offering criticism so that I may improve things, please do so kindly.
Dungeon Masters Guide II
Several times, I’ve been told that the DMG II is a great resource for DMs of any game, and that while a lot of the content in it is geared towards DnD and fantasy games, most of it is very universal.
I just recently picked up a copy of it, and not only am I surprised at the quality and quantity of information contained within, I’m having a great time reading it.
This book is highly recommended to anyone who wants to improve their ability to run a game.
