Re: New S&W Boxed Set - anyone get it?
Brave Halfling! Wow. Haven’t heard that name in years. I wonder what happened to John. I remember he had a crapton of bad luck. Hope he is okay. (Sorry for the threadjack!) :) no worries. I'm not sure what happened - I haven't seen him online in years (I also have his Delving Deeper and X-plorers b...

Re: New S&W Boxed Set - anyone get it?
The box set is the version of S&W I decided to get. Should be here Wednesday. I’m a sucker for box sets to begin with, and I really like the digest format. The set is currently on sale for $30 at frog god and includes the supplement pack. I couldn’t pass that up! Wow, that is a great price... and I...

Re: Mapping in PbP (or virtually in general)
Essentially using it as a virtual whiteboard? Ah cool. I’ve seen something similar done with excel too. Interesting stuff. So many different ways! I like the oldish school method of the players mapping, but also don’t want to fuss more than a minute or two on mapping as they enter each room. ;) Exa...

Re: Another PbP? MADNESS!
Seconding the welcome! I'll be starting another PbP as well - unsure as to when, but I'll post a thread here when I'm ready to start it up.

Re: Mapping in PbP (or virtually in general)
I agree roll20 has way too many features attached to dynamic lighting. The features look great in-game, but take a lot of time for the GM to setup, so I never use them. Normally, I just use the fog of war, and reveal the map little by little as the players move around. That works, but hand-waives th...

Re: OSRIC 3.0
I played 1e a lot when I was younger...much younger ( :lol: ), and I still have a soft spot for it. I do have several OSRIC editions, including the Black Blade hardcover, which is really nice. AAC would be a good addition, I think. I do really like S&W's unified save, but it might be harder to integ...

Re: Labyrinth Lord Revised and Expanded Edition Draft
Known Lands - nothing knew that I saw, apart from the new Dyson Logos map. But Pete Spahn has released some great resources/adventures for the Known Lands over the years, so there is tons of material out there. As for LL itself - the really new stuff is in the new classes of Brownie and Cyclops. Mos...
