Saturday Night Game
I have a computer projector that I am going to hook up to my video game rig on the back deck. Just imagine old school gaming projected on the wall roughly 8 feet square. Yes it is incredibly awesome. Next mix in some bonfire action and your drink of choice. Be there or be square starting at 7ish.
Let me know if you can make it!

You thought it could never happen
In what can only be described as one of the greatest achievements in mankind I, Philip, have reclaimed the manroom. Vive la Manroom!! Let the manliness begin!! I am going there now to do man stuff.
Race For The Galaxy
OK Race for the Galaxy is my new favorite game! I realized last night that there are cool card combos. This adds a whole new layer to the game. The combos are probably listed somewhere online. Anyway I will pick up the dungeon add for Talisman this Monday.

The return of 4e
Well folks I have decided to try 4e one mo time before officially scrapping the edition. I would like to try to make it work as there are many benefits to playing the latest edition. New content for one. Then there is the promise of the dm tools and etc...
I have decided to spice it up by doing something that I have wanted to do for a very long time, create my own world. Over the next (as yet undetermined interval of time) I will put together all of the pieces of my world and when I am done we will start a new 4e party. I have a really great campaign idea.
I am going to interject some phil-point-oh into the 4e to make it more playable. I have a few minor tweaks that will fix some of the b.s. and simplify combat.

Pathfinder
There is not a significant difference in game mechanics from 3.5 to Pathfinder. The biggest difference is in the character classes. Basically pathfinder represents a similar evolution when the game went from 3.0 to 3.5. Pathfinder is basically 3.75. For right now they are close enough that they are interchangeable so if you don't want to buy pathfinder you can use 3.5 though I am switching entirely to pathfinder when the bestiary comes out next month. When we make the switch I will provide everyone a copy of the PDF version of the rules. After the switch you can still use your 3.5 characters if you wish though I think once you read the character classes you will want to switch. The pathfinder classes are really cool.

Fish On
Folks we are gonna Night Surf Fish on pensacola beach. We have a condo in the Emerald Dolphin on the sound side. There is a public walkway about a hundred yards down the road. We will meet at 6:00 as usual at the condo and walk across to the beach. If anyone wants to we could eat at Peg Leg Petes. It is about a hundred yards in the other direction. You will need a fishing pole and whatever bait you want to use. If you want to bring a cooler or flashlight or whatever that is up to you. If you don't have a pole you can pick one up for 20$ - 40$ that will work just fine. Bring a portable chair if you have one.
Sign up if your coming!
Emerald Dolphin Condominiums
850 Fort Pickins Road
17th Floor Penthouse (I think the condo number is 1750 though it may take up the whole 17th floor, not sure.)
If you show up late just take the public walkway and walk strait out and that's where we will be. I will have my cel phone with me. I will post up when we get out there if anyone wants to come early. Look for the update from my bberry.

Game On
We are playing this Monday at 6:00 p.m. We are playing the Thayonestia party. Scott if you have a 3.0 or 3.5 character in the 17th to 20th level range feel free to play them. Otherwise you will need to either generate a 17th level character or let me know and I will make you one. This party is Evil (surprise surprise) and are based in Thay though they also have spent a great deal of time in Waterdeep.
The following is the prelude to the adventure. Please read carefully.
As usual you find yourselves following orders delivered by an acolyte of the Red Wizards. A youth barley into puberty in ill fitting red robes shakily handed you the rolled parchment sealed with the symbol of Kas.
Far below the level of the cobble stone streets of Thay in the bowels of the temple of the Fallen One an ancient wooden door opens to reveal a large chamber. The ornate geometric tiled floor glitters in the light of a magical globe roughly the size of a cantaloupe that hangs in a basked of thin silver chain suspended from the ceiling. The octagonal shaped chamber is home to eight tapestries, each one hung on a facet of the room. To those of you attuned to the arcane you feel a skein of magical tendrils trailing from each tapestry disappearing off in the ether of the web of magic that permeates all things. Transportation tapestries are ancient in the extreme. Few of them survive from the lost days of high magical arts, before the world was broken and reformed. The scenes depicted in the tapestries are quite varied so there is no mistaking the one you were instructed to enter. It depicts the interior of a tent. Rugs cover the floor and a small table is flanked by two folding chairs. A silver tray holding bread and cheese rests on the little table. One by one you lay your hand upon the tapestry. The octagonal room fades as you are transferred to the tent.

First off I would like to say that Big did a pretty good job last Monday. It is very difficult DM'ing for people in the high teens. Even though I really don't want to start over it would be far easier for someone learning to DM to run for low level characters. One option since we have had several people groan at starting again would be to let people start at 3rd level. You are still very low level but it kind of puts you past the "can't do anything" stage. We have done this in the past. I think it would be great if Big, Sean, Dewey and Jon took turns DM'ing this new party.

Somebody Step Up
I want to be a player. I don't care what you run. I don't care which party, new party, whatever... I don't care if you want to have it at your house, my house, game store... I don't care what game world you use. Just frigging run something!
Even if you never have DM'd before every DM alive never ran before their first time. Everyone started out as a newbie. It takes a lot of work to do it right but it can be rewarding.
In the mean time it is going to be board gaming for the forseeable future.

He is rather unique and you would probably enjoy playing him.
