I'll tell you exactly what happened. They wanted to do some Ravenloft minis. The people at WotC, were like, "Cool! That would be sweet! We can make 'em all dark and creepy, like the recent HorrorClix line!" Then, some mini designer said, "I wanna do a Van Helsing-type mini who's this ...

That's it! I was trying to think of what Strahd's new look reminded me of... Friggin' Lestat . :P I think my biggest complaint is Lestat's, er, Strahd's new look. It's a shame, becuase I love so much of Wayne Reynold's art work. And the man is such a gentleman. I understand the need to update Strah...

I will second Fatal Frame: Crimson Butterfly. That game was so scary that I had to quit playing it for a while. :shock: What about Thief: The Dark Project? The climax to that game was so scary! And how about the latest one...Theif: Deadly Shadows? The Shalebridge Cradle level has been hailed as one ...

Definately Steampunk and horror mix. That's exactly what Deadlands is all about. There's also "Unhallowed Metropolis" which is due to come out any time now. It's Gothic Horror blended with Steampunk, and they seem to do it quite nicely. http://www.newdarkage.net/ As far as your domain, I w...

Yes I do have reservations because I hate to see a game ruined and fizzle out, which happens a lot with groups in my case. This statement tells me right here that you are predicting that if you let him into your game, it will fizzle out. The two reasons why I feel like I should give this guy a chan...

I hate to say this, but it sounds like you have some serious reservations about the new player. And four players is very different from 2 players, which is what you are used to. For me, 4 players is just the right amount, but it will vary from person to person. If I were you, I would hold off on add...

which leads me naturally to ask in this thread have the advocates of the 3e system been championing the new system or the ravenloft product line that has come out under it? (or both) Eldritch, you seem to be going through what everyone else went through when D&D 3rd edition first came out. I re...

Well, I thought the video was hysterical. Whoever created it deserves an award. They obviously know gamers and what they are about. If you didn't find it funny, then you might be taking yourself and the hobby just a bit too seriously. I've always said, if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you rea...

When trying to guess the intentions of business men, you need to think like businessmen. WOTC doesn't hate RL, it just doesn't think it will sell. This module may very well be WOTC testing the water for RL fans. If this makes money for Wizards, then I sincerely doubt they would cut it off there. Th...

It's not just rumor. It's true! Just go to the Doctor Who website run by the BBC.

It is definately official. Doctor Who in the States! Which means, U.S. DVD's baby!

I have to agree with Desdichado. I think this will be one of a series of "classic" modules that are being updated to 3.5. I could also see them doing the Tomb of Horrors and the Rod of Seven Parts. There's been enough time since the last iteration. My bet is, with so much space, the villag...

You know, about Billie Piper leaving.... I'm not so sure any more. Here's where I go the information: http://www.darkhorizons.com/news05/051114a.php But as I cruise around the net, I don't see any other sources saying that she's leaving. I really, really hope not. I think it's far easier to replace ...

Re: Major question!

Yeah, I'm surprised by how much I like Rose. Especially since I was dead-set against the actress when I first heard. Funny that, I am impressed by her. The episode where she won me over was "The End of the World," where I thought we were really watching the whole thing through her eyes. I...

Major question!

You know, I have to agree with David' analysis. They've really done a bang-up job addressing the age-old questions the series raised in past decades. I really like the fact that the show is very accessable to new viewers. My significant other can easily follow it. Also, I like how they have updated ...
