Bard in a Box rules!Have you ever wondered why, in a world full of magic, there are no enchanted labor saving devices? Few magical modes of transportation? No bespelled byproducts of the inventor's art? Wonder no more! They are all here, in this latest compendium from the Game Wizard's lair: The Book of Wondrous Inventions!
The Book of Wondrous Inventions is useable with both the D&D and the AD&D game systems. Each invention is clearly outlined, including function, form, and hazards of use. Statistics and spell details are are presented in a manner compatible with both game systems. Adventure scenario suggestions are given, as well as design instructions for characters who wish to build duplicate device.
As an added bonus, a section is included which details a system for creating spells and magical items. This will prove especially useful to players and DMs who use the D&D game system; the detailed information is also of help to AD&D game players.

"Either God wants to abolish evil, and cannot; or he can, but does not want to. ... If he wants to, but cannot, he is impotent. If he can, but does not want to, he is wicked. ... If, as they say, God can abolish evil, and God really wants to do it, why is there evil in the world?" -Epicurus

The party is walking down a long hallway. They suddenly hear someone scream "DUCK!" Everyone hits the floor.
Ew, the floor is covered in something... muddy and smelly.
After a moment, a duck flies over.
The group stands up and moves down the hall again.
"DUCK!"
Everyone drops to the floor again. It's still icky.
A duck flies by.
Grumbling, they get up again and try one more time.
"DUCK!"
Not to be fooled, they don't drop to the floor and are instantly decapitated by the swinging guillotine.

Reminds me of the always-hilarious Netbook, the Book Of Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, or, the AD&D Book Of Sex.

Arduin Grimior is something else for you AD&D junkies need to check out.
The critical hit's table, the spells, the races, the inn menus, The flash gordon hawkmen as a playable race, fighting gorean tarnsmen over desert caravan routes, the Deodanths (Very Nasty Drow/Gith hybrids), accidentally rolling 00 on the fighter bonus table and learning that your character is a member of one of the Giantkin races. Rolling a 20 on the Gaint races table and finding out that your firegiant mother was raped by a Balrog.....
(Oh, btw, it's creadably fun to play a pre-teen firegiant with little wings, who can 3/day manifest aura of fire around any weapon.)

What about throwing in some Wood Elf Warhawk Riders from Warhammer Fantasy Battle into this.... THAT's gonna mean trouble for those Hawk-Men!

Not really. If you have Kazaa I would recommend downloading it, as well as doing a Google search for the AD&D GUide to Sex.
(I say download because I am a lazy sonuvabitch and don't feel like typing out the 1.5 page overview and the thing is in PDF format)

I have a few books of dumb traps. One of them is the "Countdown to Freedom"Kelly Antilles wrote:Evil Sadistic Bastard wrote:Kelly Antilles wrote:

COUNTDOWN TO FREEDOM
Party enters a 10x10 room, and stone doors seal the room at all entrances. Looking about, there is a button on the wall, beside a number dial (like on a gas pump) that counts down 10-9-8... Some bright soul presses the button, and the dial resets to 10. In my campaign, the party spent fully 45 minutes of real time searching the room for an escape, while one PC stayed near the button to continue resetting the dial. Finally, they said forget it, and let the dial count down to 0, at which point the doors slid open, and the DM was chased from the room.

Back on Topic
The whole 4 volumes of Grimtooth's Traps by the folks at Chaosium & Flying Buffalo is the definate winner. (Hard to belive Black Tree (Which is now owned by Chaosium, Flying Buffalo, & White Wolf), didn't get more exposure. Glad WOC/TSR does not own them.

Inside Note
All the Worlds Monsters
as a joke against the first edition of the Monster Manual, the % in Lair was typo'ed. (as % Liar)
As a result all of the entry's in AtWM had a % chance that it's in it's lair when encountered and % chance it will LIE to the party if spoken too.
Dragon's btw have a 90% in both
