Lone Wolf all the way, baby! I grew up with Lone Wolf, and now I get to introduce it to others in a group setting! I wonderful world with a great writer and a stellar game. Nerethel

If Mongose ever decided to reprint any of the Lone Wolf game books, especially the New Order series, I'd buy them without any hesitation! :!: If Mr. Dever ever decided to publish the unfinished series, I'd also buy them up in an instant. Here's a formal request for Mongoose to consider such...

Due out around Christmas... of what year? ;) Seriously, I'm not worried too much about it, but it would be great to have a good, long adventure directly from the author. Nerethel

Stormcrow, that was a really entertaining read! I'm using your explaination for my games, taking the viewpoint of, "it's a nasty weapon that can really hurt your head" approach. A mace, flail and morningstar are just words, really; definitions used to describe weapons that, in the end, are just...

Any new Lone Wolf material that comes out will find a copy on my shelves, as sure as I breathe. August has kept me impressed so far, and I know Mongoose stays true to the licenses they use. I'd buy this in a hearbeat (if I can afford it. Otherwise I'd have to wait a bit). Nerethel

Agreed. I like a mage who is a little more than a spell-flinger, but otherwise a sheltered bookworm. That's one of my favorite illustrations in the books. Personally, I'd rate the interior art at about a 7 out of 10, overall. Some better, some worse. I'm not of the opinion that art 'makes' an...

I'd buy them, if they're plastic. I like miniatures, but the cost prevents me from having a growing collection. Plastic is cheaper and in many ways more desirable to me, as dropping them doesn't break them. How many people out there have a bunch of great miniatures with broken swords? Yeah...

I have loved Bladesingers since they were first introduced. I based my ren faire character around a combination of a Kai Lord and a Bladesinger, and it seems to have served me well. The problem many people might have with the class is that it's either too powerful as a standalone class, or that...

This is a typical "me too" post. :P I don't usually use game screens, as 95% of what I do is either in my head, or in incomprehensible scratchings on paper, but I'd buy a GM screen for LW. However, I think the biggest challenge to making a screen for the LWRPG is what to put on it? Every...

I would think that those exclamations would be similar to what we do here on earth, saying things like, "Holy hell!" or "What the devil?" I would expect people from Magnamund to do the same, even if aligned pretty much with good. On the same note, the days of our week were named after celestial...

My players' characters are named fairly well, I think. I have problems coming up with new names on the spur, so a list of names before a game, to be used when an NPC comes along out of nowhere, would be great. I like and will probably use the names you came up with (except for Korelian and...

There's absolutely merit to this, IMHO. It's not to say that it has to be done with every feat, but there is a definite frustrating progression, at times, to making some feats work. In your example, needing Power Attack in order to gain Cleave, I need to take a feat I never use in order to get a...

For what it's worth, Joe Dever told me once that, "strictly speaking, there are no elves on Magnamund". At the time I was really getting into the idea of elves, and had asked him if, by some chance, if a shadow gate opened up from another world, could a migrated elf learn the ways of the Kai and...

Actually, while I agree with your basic premise on the whole thing, there is still the force used to counteract gravity the whole time. Whether TK is used to lift an object in the air or drag an object along the ground, you're still fighting gravity, a force much stronger than what is actually...
