tomb of horrors is good...i like all the old classics, barrier peaks, TOEE, castle spulzeer, etc...they remade TOEE back when 3rd edition first came out but it was more of a sequel than a remake, as i discovered after i bought it

D20 Modern anyone?
Is D&D online? Or is it only offline. I remember my friends playing it at lunch for a while.
I'm not terribly fond of D20 Modern's Base Class and Advanced Class system. Urban Arcana is still also really low magic. If I want to play in that kind of a setting, I'm much more inclined to go with Shadowrun.
I"VE played NWN I PLAYED a shadow dancer.it was leet.
Dang! You beat me too it!; I was going to make a D&D thread!
anyways...
I'm in 3 games right now, one a d20 game.
The first and longest I've been playing I have a female human wizard at 7th level. (and she has a str of 17 :D) I just got my psedodragon familiar! :D Right now, the game has gone to the Underdark. We just recently took down a mature adult Shadow dragon in a darkwood forest.
I chose a wizard because there was no wizard in the party. Had to fill it out, you know, that kind of thing.
In the 2nd game (different DM), I have made a 17th level Swordmaster. (don't look for it in the book; I made this class myself). I've yet to introduce her into the game, but I'm looking forward to it. (I've always loved fighters. Especially this one...) More details?
and my third game is d20. I have a 9 level strong hero who it a demolitions expert. We're in the year 2569. A virus is out killing people. Basically the virus destroys the hemoglobin in the blood and blood transfusions are required to keep you alive. A full blood transfusion can cure you, but that much blood is hard to come by. and guess what? My character's got the virus! Ani't that just peachy! (don't matter, I didn't like her anyway)
There's a total of 4 people in my group and I'm the only one that hasn't DMed yet. But that'll change soon. I'm writing the campain.
There is a D&D game online, called Stormreach. You have to buy the software though. It's a D&D equivalent of Warcraft. There's also tabletop D&D which is very common and what I prefer.
The only way I'd pick up Modern and play is if I could find the Post apoctalyptic Walmart Takover setting. Walmart had taken over the world, and now everyone lives in one giant walmart. You have classes designed to be shoplifters and such. Don't remember to much about it, but it sounded funny as hell.
The common saying is Wizards win D&D. Wizards are also often equated to Batman. Some of the new spells like Celerity, and old favorites like Timestop and Forcecage make Wizards nasty opponents.
wizards are cool but i like the sorceror class...somehow it just appeals to me more...a wizard adventuring is still a bit hard to believe, along with a cleric of any god other than travel/exploration centred ones
bythe way, BTV, your campaign setting seems pretty well written! if i could play in your group i definatly would!
I always Play Bard.
best Bard I made turned into a RDD.
