I don't know if there's any information out there about the artists who will contribute to the D&D set, but I was just thinking that not using classic D&D artists like Larry Elmore and Tony DiTerlizzi for that set would be a huge missed opportunity. It's a great chance to get a set with a more distinctive/varied art style that stands apart from the regular sets. Are there any D&D-related fantasy artists you would like to see?

[edit] It would also be super neat if we got references to classic adventures/adventure paths. I'm expecting Vecna, Acererak, maybe Halaster, but getting something from Age of Worms or seeing Flame would be pretty cool, too.

Gameplay

I don't remember if the game had any specific goal. The interface was dead simple and consisted of only a static image of Space on the left side with your ship's statistics on the right. You'd move around by clicking the image or around it. This would load a new webpage with a new sector of Space. Occasionally someone else would be in your sector and you could fight then somehow. Gameplay was slow because the page had to reload after every action.

I think you could mine resources on planets and asteroids. There was also a forum where most of the communicati

Hey Folks!

So a friend and I were talking about how much things have changed since we were young, you know like old people do, and we realized we were making a lot of assumptions about what school and youth culture is like without actually knowing if any of it was true. Specifically the aspect of teenage life that involves becoming enamored with "old things"--music, books, movies, whatever. My kids are too young to recognize something as "old" or "retro", they just see the Gameboy, for example, as another toy.

So, is there a subculture or counter culture movement amount the youth that prefers to use old technology? Not unlike how once you get to a certain age you appreciate/prefer old mu

It feels like after replacing KWIN with either i3 or bspwm it took longer for me to get to a usable desktop after logging in. I'm not sure if it's just a perception thing because the wallpaper isn't set right away. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Once everything is up and running it's great, but that perceived initial lag is a bit jarring. I really like Plasma so I'd like to keep using it, but if this is something that other have experienced perhaps it be better to just use stand alone tools instead in order to have a smoother experience.

Hey everyone, so this is a bit weird but I'm wondering if anyone that played 20 years ago remembers the D&D demo that used to be available at playdnd.com/demo (archive.org link). It was super basic, just had to crawl through a simple dungeon and break down a door to save a unicorn. Anyways, I have vague memories of visiting that page countless times since I couldn't get the books/didn't know anyone who could play, and was wondering if there's anyone out there that has the text contents of the adventure (there was also one for the Star Wars RPG which I'd be very happy to reread again). Just wanted to dig into a

Hey everyone! So I've wanted to make a tempo-style deck for a while now and stubbornly played wizards until I saw [[Brineborn Cutthroat]] and [[Nightpack Ambusher]] which seemed like the perfect cards for the style of deck I like to play. I put together this quick list and have been having pretty good success on MTGA, but I have no idea if it's actually any good yet. Today I've gone about 14-3 in ranked matches, which is not bad. But again, I don't know if that's because players on MTGA don't know how to play against this kind of deck or dumb luck. The control match ups can be difficult if they can resolve [[Teferi, Time Raveler]], but otherwise nothing too bad. The other blue-tempo decks

I'd like to start of by saying that I understand why so many of us are upset and that those feelings are not only valid, but deserved. The purpose of this post is not to convince you that the games are better without transferring older Pokemon, invalidate other's complaints, or try and get anyone to change their opinion. I only want to provide the perspective that I, and I'm sure some other Pokemon fans have, in regards to this change. I sincerely hope they'll allow players to transfer their prized Pokemon at some point in the future (my guess is in S&S 2 or something) because I know they are more than just bits on a memory card. Having played since the original games, I understand there

Hi Everyone!

Just wanted to make sure I understood this interaction. If my opponent has Niv Mizzet, Parun and I have thousand year storm, after casting a spell the triggers would be (First to Last): My Spell, Thousand Year trigger, Niv Mizzet Trigger. Is that correct? So Niv Mizzet's ability would resolve before the spell is copied?

Hey Everyone!

I'm excited to see the influx of new players that Arena has brought! I thought I'd share my favorite resources for understanding Magic and getting better. These articles are older, but clearly explain the fundamentals of the game that persist through sets/metagame/formats. They range from day 1 basics (how to read a magic card) to evaluating new cards in limited, building decks, and even how to construct proper mana bases.

The first resource is the Magic Academy series of articles from the Mothership side way back in 2007. I'm not sure if they ever updated the articles, but these helped me understand the game at a much more fundamental level (despite having started back in Me

Hello!

I'm looking to get back into GW1 but, like a lot of people, I lost my original account. I submitted a service request, but honestly I only had Prophecies and even though it came with some special weapons, i really don't care to use them (they made things too easy, really).

I don't remember what e-mail I used for the previous account, but I'm pretty sure it's my main one. Does anyone know if it'll cause a bunch of errors? I'm going to try tonight once I get home from work but I'm worried I'll "use" my keys and have to buy the game twice or something.

Thanks!

[Edit] hey everyone, thanks for your help! I was able to get my account set up last night and everything worked w/o a hitch

Hi Everyone!

Since all issues of Dungeon (and Dragon) are now up on archive.org, I've started going through them to look at all the adventures. There's some really great stuff in there (I'm most excited about the Shackled City path). While I'd love to try out campaigns in various rule systems, 5e is my main one. I was wondering, what methods do you use for converting modules/adventures to 5e?

I've googled around for some options and they all mention that it is an inaccurate process. My idea was to just replace the old versions of monsters with current ones (quite simple with gnolls/goblins/etc) and then tweak it a bit if I saw my party struggling more than they should. Does this sound like
