Goodman Games

I got one in there too, but I'd hardly call meself "esteemed company".

There's one in my Barnes & Noble, as well as Dragonmech books and some DCCs. What little power I wield in the book industry, I wield for righteous causes.

Monstrous Mechs was put off in favor of another sourcebook that I think will be of greater interest to more DragonMech fans. It's "Almanac of the Endless Traders," tentatively scheduled for spring '06, and it's a broad gazetteer of sorts, focusing on the parts of Highpoint that weren't co...

My house rule for starting up mechs is this: It takes as long as is dramatically appropriate.

Wow, that's one of the best "players derailing an adventure" stories I've ever heard.

I've never done it myself, but I'm guessing Toronto to Indy would be about a 10 hour drive.

How do most people handle mech to mech combat in their games? Is their much close range combat or it pretty much all long range stuff? Honestly, I try to minimize the amount of mech to mech combat that happens. Or I try to control the circumstances enough that I don't have to worry about the huge r...

Sounds to me like it would work okay. The DragonMech setting is pretty much just a generic D&D setting with a different history over the last 100 years or so (or at least it was before there were bunches of supplements). Given that, I'd think you could put whatever DragonMech core book elements ...

Here are some handy words for talking like a coglayer. VERBS: adjust, align, assemble, balance, calculate, calibrate, connect, depressurize, dismantle, equalize, fine tune, install, localize, lubricate, maintain, manufacture, overhaul, patch, pressurize, redirect, redline, regulate, release, replace...

Have you read Far West by Richard Moore? That would make for a fun game setting.

Four more years! Four more years!

You got my vote.

I think you can have too many mechs, but maybe I'm weird.

Here is what my new coglayer/bard multiclass is using: Masterwork lute: Wavemaker: 1 lbs, 65 gp Folder: 1 lb, 2000 gp Noisemaker: 3 lbs, 300 gp (integrated) Refined Controls: 3lbs, 280 gp Amp: Wavemaker: 1 lb, 65 gp Amplifier: 1 lb, 200 gp Amplifier: 1 lb, 200 gp Headset: Wavemaker: 1 lb, 65 gp The ...

I thought it was more like regular Twister, except played in a dungeon with multicolored tiles on the floor. And each one is a pressure plate.

The number of posts by spambots is getting annoying. Whoever the admin for the board is (Joseph?) should go into the admin control panel and turn on the visual confirmation option to prevent spam bots from creating accounts. Admincp-->Configuration-->"Enable Visual Confirmation"-->Click YE...

No one can defeat the crocodile! I'm not much of a miniatures guy, but they were fine figures. The non-tournament DCC I ran went quite well. The players seemed quite happy with it, and a couple of them stopped by and bought some of the other ones. For that matter, at least one person from each game ...

As soon as someone invents CD players that don't require steam powers.

Nekroborg is Highpoint's premiere heavy metal band! Formed by human bard Arn Guersson, the band really hit its stride three years ago when Arn met a gnomish coglayer by the name of Pobar Clankwhiddle. Clankwhiddle was amazed by Arn's vision, and devoted his considerable technical abilites to making ...

Okay, I'll post another one to ruin your thread-killing streak. I had to run a session on short notice, and arrived a bit early to finish preparing (make some stuff up quick). I was looking through one guy's minis for some inspiration, and he had some iron cobras, which looked like perfect Dragonmec...

It is quite an impressive list. Personally I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of The Last City.

I'll be working the booth a bit too, and probably just hanging out nearby a fair amount, so I look forward to seeing you there.

Ah, it was only a matter of time before some coglayer figured out how to use the lunar rain to their advantage.

Now that Steam Warriors has been out for a while, I'm curious what nifty devices people have come up with using the new steam powers.

Heh, I thought you were going towards a Stench Elemental.

The dwarf warrior in my group would charge every opponent with little regard for his own safety, and somehow it worked out for him. One time the group was about to engage a group of orcs in a narrow underground passage, and the coglayer threw out a bunch of ballbearings onto the floor. "Let the...

Also, in general, what should the ratio be for encounters with terrestrial opponents to lunar creatures? Which are more common? Lunar giants? Ygapmpo? Skinstealers? Dragons? The impression I get from The Shardsfall Quest is that the skinstealers are the dominant form of intelligent life on the moon...

First Goodman product I got into was Dragonmech, and I loves it even though I've never really been a big fan of mechs. From there I got into the DCCs, but I have yet to really look at the other stuff. Etherscope looks neat ( ) too.
