Omigod!!! Gronan and GT are co-DMing an adventure... With beer!! And those bottles are of no human form!!!

PC death is a bummer, as the dungeons don't get any easier, and even more significantly, PC death really jars the cooperative storyline and relationships in progress.I DM'd last night, and we had...

TPK?!? How ghastly--er--ghoul-ly!!

I was only kidding, of course. PCs desrve to die when their time is up and not before that. I don't feel that death detracts from any aspect of the game, Falconer. How so? In order to right the paths...

Well, it's just a real setback. The slain party were mostly around 4th level. New characters must be rolled up, and there is no way they are able to face the same dungeon the old party fell in. So I...

Yes, a total party kill is bad. Gary and I butchered a party of 20 adventurers once, but this was mainly due to their lack of preparation. I prefer not killing PCs unless they pretty much ask for it.Rob

But, as a player who has had some nice characters leave the game toes-up...I appreciate what you say, Falconer, but at some point, the risk of loss has to be there. Otherwise there's no game; a game...

Yes, of course, I feel some pride having DM'd a TPK, and of course the players will boast of it as well to future players. It keeps them on their toes and keeps the edge on the game. As you say, it's...

I too have reversed descisions eliminating the whole party. As I said, it's a bummer.R

Ahhh. I see. I own the GMG and the PHB, but have not played. I'd like to get the monster books, but they're far too expensive for me, and there are too many of them...Overall, I like HM. I just...

Yes, I tend to dislike the huge amount of monster books as well but they are done very well. However, they could have been compressed into 2-3 books I think dropping a few of the critters that ... are...
