Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Julius Caesar and the Giant Peach

Re: Tolkien Elves in Hero I'd say Galadriel, Elrond and all were more powerful by the end of the Third Age because of their long years of experience, although the rings helped. I don't think the Elves had waned much until Sauron was defeated, although the process may have started. Celeborn at least remained in Middle-earth for a while, as did Cirdan. Sauron was no longer staying in Dol Guldur during the War of the Ring, although it was still one of his major strongholds. I think it was commanded by Khamul (second of the Nazgul), although he was in Barad Dur when it fell.

Re: Fantasy worlds you had to "rework" years later once you've grown up and knew bett I don't have the Turakian Age, but I have taken parts of Warhammer's Old World and 7th Sea's Theah for my campaign.

Re: Fantasy worlds you had to "rework" years later once you've grown up and knew bett It's a good idea to adjust the level of detail according to the scale of the campaign. If the entire campaign is set in a single city and its immediate area, then you need a detailed map of the place. If the characters will be wandering from town to town, then you can give a lot of general info and detail a few areas. If you run for different groups (I've never done this), you can set the groups in different parts of the world.

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Captain America's Cup Whichever cup that may be, I'll leave to your imagination!

Re: Tolkien Elves in Hero Galadriel also revealed her power when the Elves attacked Dol Guldur. She "threw down its walls and laid bare its pits." Of course, Galadriel was described as the greatest of the Noldor, save perhaps Feanor, though she was wiser than he.

Re: Tolkien Elves in Hero But Glorfindel was more like the exception rather than the rule. And he didn't play a big role in LOTR.

Re: Musings on Random Musings I wish I had that option.

Re: The cranky thread That much is true; I have very little patience, although I have gotten better at it, since I work with kids.

Re: Tolkien Elves in Hero Very few of the Elves mentioned in the Silmarillion were still around during the War of the Ring. To my understanding, most of the Elves remaining in Middle-earth aren't as powerful as they were.

Re: The cranky thread I make it a point to lose my temper once a day. Yes, I actually said that once.

Re: Fantasy worlds you had to "rework" years later once you've grown up and knew bett I just do it for fun. And it's a way to keep gaming when I'm not actually running or playing. I don't always start from scratch. I have mixed and matched stuff from different worlds and systems.

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares The Partridge Family Feud

Re: The Non Sequitor Thread I feel very sorry for the Italian tennis player Fabio Fognini. This year at Wimbledon, he was trounced handily by Roger Federer, with Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall watching. Now at the Olympics, he had to play Novak Djokovic. To his credit, he won the first set before going down in defeat. You have to wonder what he did to anger the gods of tennis.

Re: Musings on Random Musings Ditto.

Re: The cranky thread Thanks. I still dream of the day all six of them can get along.

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares The Bridge to Terabithia on the River Kwai A Bridge to Terabithia Too Far

Re: I have a dream. (and MAN was it wierd!) One of my earliest nightmares was walking with my family by the edge of a ridiculously long pool of water that was hundreds of feet deep. I slipped and fell into the water. I couldn't swim at the time, so I sank into the water. I realized I was going to drown when I woke up.
