Then the sightings began — uncanny lights by the Snow- Layer, anomalies on our radar, strange reports from lone farmers or the pithecines in the backwoods. Some people thought it was the brave explorers of legend, returned from fabled Homeworld to help us in our hour of need; others thought it was the precursor to an invasion by an alien race, with designs on the fertile lands of our cratered home. “Twenty years ago they announced themselves — and it was both. The Homeworlders had come, in force, and were nothing like our myths foretold.

Understanding the Sacrifice: Sacrifice Your Way to Success

Angus Dunnington

<DIV>All chessplayers love to sacrifice, whether this is part of a checkmating attack, a defensive measure, or simply an attempt to confuse the opponent. Gambitting material inevitably increases the tension on the board and sets the pulse racing. However, material cannot just be jettisoned on a whim. Every successful sacrifice is based on sound basic principles and mastery of these is a skill possessed only by a precious few. Now you can add yourself to that list! In this highly entertaining and instructive book, International Master Angus Dunnington acquaints the reader with key aspects of all kinds of chess sacrifices, including the exchange sacrifice, the restrictive sacrifice and, everybody's favorite, the queen sacrifice.<br>Read this book and sacrifice with confidence!<br>Written by an experienced chess teacher and writer<br>Includes all different types of sacrifice<br>Ideal for the improving player<br></div>

SACRIFICE A Roleplaying Game For Two or More Players By Shaker SACRIFICE is meant to be played by two or more players. One takes the role of Narrator, who sets the scene, offers DIFFICULT CHOICES, and reveals CONSEQUENCES. All other players control single Characters, who face the challenges offered by the Narrator, and are changed by the decisions they make. The only things required for play are writing instruments for each player, and two six sided dice. SACRIFICE will function in any setting. To play SACRIFICE, the Narrator will first set the scene, introducing the players to the setting and giving them a rough idea of the danger they will face- a threat to the kingdom, an otherworldly force warping our reality, etc. The players will then take a short while to create their Characters. This is to be done with full sentences, giving an idea of who the Character is, what they are good at, who they hold dear, what they are passionate about, and what they have worked hard to

Rising, Falling, Hovering

C.D. Wright

Starred Review. In her first collection of new lyric poems since 2003, Wright braids some of her most personal and intimate poetry to date with an extended meditation on the consequences of America's contemporary stance toward other countries. Short, elliptical lyrics, featuring Wright's trademark repetition of lines and sharp wit, which interrogate their own speaker and a companion (She is not really hearing what he's really saying) flank the two-part title piece, a long poem that is a travelogue of a trip to Mexico at the beginning of the current war in Iraq. Everywhere the shell-shocked speaker goes, she finds people mesmerized// by the new media-borne war, while she feels Ashamed of her solace in being here because, now more than ever, to be ashamed is to be American. As the lines blur between tourism and empire, and as images and impressions accrue (Whole new breed of dog born in every warren), the poem's speaker also reflects on the safety and precariousness of her own family. This book displays a new level of social and personal consciousness for Wright (<I>One Big Self</I>), who characterizes the powerful ambivalence that now accompanies life in America, where injustice may be the price of freedom, and where poetry/ doesn't/ protect/ you/ anymore. <I>(Apr.)</I> <BR>Copyright &copy; Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Fantasy

By Greg A. Vaughan Rise of New Thassilon SoRShEN’S SInUOUS GUIsARME T he design of Sorshen’s Sinuous Guisarme broke from the classical tradition of the other six Alara’quin bequeathed to the first runelords—for this weapon was adorned with blades at either end. While one could, in theory, wield the guisarme as a double weapon, this was never its intended use. Instead, the magic weapon imbued its bearer with the grace and speed required to quickly strike with both blades without requiring special training in an exotic fighting style. Sorshen, of course, was the only runelord ever to wield the Sinuous Guisarme, but she rarely saw the need to use it as a weapon in battle. Instead, she commanded the guisarme to transform into a potent magical staff more suited to her temperament and proclivities. As with Karzoug’s Burning Glaive, the Sinuous Guisarme was crafted to defeat those who could not cast spells, and it bolstered its user’s defenses by granting incredible luck. Unlik

International Trademark Classification: A Guide to the Nice Agreement

Jessie N. Roberts

<br />"In International Trademark Classification: A Guide to the Nice Agreement, 4th Edition, Jessie Roberts continues to provide the definitive work on classification issues. As a former chair of INTA's Classification Subcommittee and a practicing trademark attorney filing in the United States and through the Madrid Protocol, I have used this work extensively. Her book is vital to anyone who may puzzle over the proper class for 'repositionable paint patches' or 'metal ladders' or how the new 10th Edition of the Nice Agreement has substantially redistributed goods from Class 9 to elsewhere based on function rather than merely having an electrical component. Her explanations provide a solid framework to the practitioner or paralegal for proper classification." <br />--Christopher Schulte, Partner, Merchant &amp; Gould, P.C. <br />

Downloaded from StarFrontiers.com UPDATED ROBOT SECTION Part X of the Revised GAMMA WORLD® game rules is an introductory section on robots and their use and generation in Gamma World. That section, and the Revised GAMMA WORLD Errata Supplement, provides a number of examples of useful robots and lays the foundations for the creation of robots. The purpose of this section in this module is to flesh out that information, give a more complete robot generation system, and offer the GM suggestions how his players can generate player character robots for use in his campaign. Before attempting to use the Updated Robot Information, the GM should first reread Part X of the original rules to refresh himself on the terms. At the end of this section is a Robotics Glossary which will clarify and expand some of those terms and introduce new terms. Certain concepts such as wild and controlled modes are identical to the original concepts and so are not repeated here. DESIGNING ROBOT

Dragonart: How to Draw Fantastic Dragons and Fantasy Creatures

Jessica "Neon Dragon" Peffer

Grade 5 Up This book has great writing and superb illustrations and manages to do everything right from the front cover to the index. The author is clearly knowledgeable about her topic and her enthusiasm is contagious. Her dragons are wonderfully diverse and, while none of them looks particularly easy to draw, the sheer breadth of Peffer's imagination will encourage readers to try and create some of their own. The writing hits the perfect note between didactic and mischievous and will especially appeal to the sensibilities of teen artists. There is nothing else out there right now with the wit and style of <i>DragonArt</i>; it is sure to become a classic in fantasy-art instruction.<i> Steev Baker, Kewaskum Public Library, WI</i> <br />Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

The first is an overview of the new capabilities Windows 2000 offers for user and resource management, plus an overview of the Active Directory, domain models, and security mechanism available. The next section covers all aspects of user management-creation of users, bulk tools, migrations, from other directory structures, groups, and planning for efficient use of groups. The final section deals with managing the user's environment through the use of profiles, group policy objects, and the functions Microsoft has grouped and marketed as Intellimirror-client-side caching, single instance storage, remote boot and MSI.

1 Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Dungeon Module #G1A The Steading of the Hill Giant Chief The Lower Caverns By Joseph Bloch Background: When originally published, The Steading of the Hill Giant Chief made several references to a series of caverns and other features below the southern and western portion of the Dungeon Level that was published in the adventure. Those caverns and dungeons were never detailed, and the only clues to their nature were in the descriptions for some of the encounter areas (18, 19, 21, and 23, in the original module). When the module was re-released as part of the compilation Queen of the Spiders in 1986, the descriptions were left unchanged. In 1999, it was once again re-released as part of a compilation, Against the Giants, The Liberation of Geoff. For that volume, Sean K. Reynolds added new material, including the following line in the description of area 21: “Those unmapped lower levels wander off into darkness, being barren of treasure

The Esoterrorists RPG 2nd Edition

Robin D Laws

I like the Esoterrorists. It is a fun, quick, and simple little system. It seems like it would be a great system for bringing new people in with, especially if they like shows like CSI or Castle... Especially of use is the fact that the game does deliver on its promise. You could easily explain the rules to someone in 15 minutes enough so that they could play. You can also learn them enough to run the game in about an hour. There are some spots you'd still need the book (for tables and such) but you could do it. The game also delivers nicely on giving the feel of a cop drama, or mystery series. Even with the horror stories that the game comes with, and the policing of the world against people trying to summon monsters. It looks like a game that could easily provide hours of fun, either as a medium length campaign, or as that thing you do for 2-3 sessions between other games. --Reality Refracted<br /><br />The best Mystery/Investigative RPG ever If you roleplay, and you like mystery stories (even if you've never really liked them in RPGs) you'll love this book. The rules are incredible - I honestly think this is the best investigation-based RPG ever printed. --Rolfe Bergstrom, Transitive Property of Gaming<br /><br />The tradition of investigative horror role-playing games has a long history... Will this one be able to stand out from an apparently increasingly crowded genre? The short answer is a resounding Yes, thanks to a rather inspired bit of thinking on the part of the author, Robin D. Laws (designer of The Dying Earth, Feng Shui, and Rune RPGs) about the nature of investigative role-playing, encapsulated in the core of the rulebook, the GUMSHOE system. The main difference between this game and its predecessors is that The Esoterrorists RPG recognises and addresses the problem of under skilled player characters that don t or can t find the vital clue, which throws the entire scenario off kilter and cannot be completed satisfactory. The solution is to change the emphasis, instead of scrabbling around hunting for clues, the investigators are assumed to be competent enough to find them, and the emphasis instead is now placed on the interpretation of said clues. This isn t to say that they will be doled out anyway if the players choose to sit back and do nothing, or that characters with better skills won t be rewarded. On the contrary, the players still have to ask the appropriate questions and use their player characters to examine a scene to get the clues. --Dave Lai, RPG.net

This book is practical. The magick works. Some people have said that I have no respect for demons, implying that this work threatens and commands the demons. Please read the book and see for yourself. What this magick actually does is put you in a position of authority, where you can command the demons so that they are willing to help, without resentment to you, and without difficulty. It's safe and easy. You get what you want.<br /><span><br />Occult secrets are worth more than the price of a book.

"If the characters in a game have depth, complexity, consistency, mystery, humanity, and charm, then they are going to feel real to the player, and that helps the whole game world feel real, and allows the player to suspend his or her disbelief and get lost in the world. Everything the player does will be more exciting if they're doing it for someone, or with someone, or in opposition to someone who feels real. Simply put, good character design helps the player to have what we all know can be an amazing, unforgettable experience. This book is not just about making great characters, but also about making great games.<br id="CRLF" />- from the foreword by Tim Schafer, Double Fine Productions<br id="CRLF" /><br id="CRLF" />"Katherine Isbister skillfully draws upon various psychological constructs elevating game development to a more comprehensive level. Taking a Psych 100 class? This book transforms the sometimes stuffy theories of Freud, Skinner, Rogers and Maslow into fresh and entertaining relevancy as the author weaves these ideas into game content. The next time you play a favorite video game, read this book-that game will take on a whole new light and who knows you may be able to ace that psychology final.<br id="CRLF" />- Pauline Pedersen, Course Director, Full Sail Real World Education<br id="CRLF" /><br id="CRLF" />"The notion of using psychological principles in games continues to be of great interest to the games industry, but few researchers have been able to discuss in depth how psychological research can actually be applied to game design. Katherine Isbister's book not only makes complex psychological concepts accessible to the games community, but also demonstrates its application in current games through the use of concrete examples (on retail products), and possible design tips and recommendations.<br id="CRLF" />- Randy Pagulayan, PhD, User Research Lead, Microsoft Game Studios<br id="CRLF" /><br id="CRLF" />"Katherine Isbister has crafted a text that covers a far greater scope of psychological concerns than I would've previously thought possible, and each area of psychology she covers has the potential to bring games to higher level. For any individual studying, teaching, or working in Game Design this is a must-have text.<br id="CRLF" />- Robin Koman, Associate Course Director, Full Sail Real World Education<br id="CRLF" /><br id="CRLF" />"A valuable tool for applying effective principles of psychology to create readable, entertaining and high-impact game characters-a must-have for today's game developer.<br id="CRLF" />- Andrew Stern, co-creator of the interactive drama Facade and the virtual pets Dogz and Catz<br id="CRLF" /><br id="CRLF" />"Well researched and perceptive, this book offers new insights on creating more emotionally engaging game characters. If you have ever been curious about the psychology behind better character design, this book is a must read!<br id="CRLF" />- Nicole Lazzaro, President, XEODesign, Inc.<br id="CRLF" /><br id="CRLF" />"Isbister has delivered an impressive package that will leave you wondering about Sonic the Hedgehog's need for speed and Lara Croft's potential trust issues long after the button-mashing session has ended.<br id="CRLF" />- Animation, September 2006

Mutants & Masterminds Second Edition to Third Edition Conversion Notes The following notes offer guidelines from converting game traits from the second edition of MUTANTS & MASTERMINDS to the third edition. These guidelines generally work from the second edition (or “2e”) traits, providing the third edition (or “3e”) equivalents, where possible. As with all game system conversions, these guidelines are not 100% – a certain amount of “eyeballing” is needed in some cases in order to make the converted game traits “fit comfortably.” The players and Gamemaster should exercise their best judgment when using these guidelines to convert 2e M&M characters to 3e. Power Level & Power Points While power level and starting power point totals have remained unchanged between M&M 2e and 3e, some changes in the point values of certain traits may shift a character’s power point total up or down after conversion. This is of no concern for non-player characters (since their power point tota

Zombies for Zombies: Advice and Etiquette for the Living Dead

David P. Murphy

"If you are into zombies, <i>Zombies for Zombies</i> is a great addition to your collection. And if zombies are not your thing, then this is still a great piece of humor that effectively parodies our modern world. And if you are one of the recently bitten, "read this book like there's no tomorrow, because in your case tomorrow isn't what it used to be."" - <strong><em> Grasping for the Wind </em></strong><br /><br />"Murphy simply takes the niceties of modern life (and occasionally the lack thereof), throws in the added dimension of recent zombification, and presto: instant cultural mishmash, suitable for snorting coffee all over." - <strong><em> Sacramento News and Review</em></strong><br /><br />"Once bitten it is vital to be familiar with the impending challenges and how to deal with them swiftly and appropriately. For the infected, Z4Z is a must have." - <strong><em> The UnClean</em></strong><br /><br />"I love that zombies are making the trasition for horror to humor - this book is perfect for those who agree! " - <strong><em> The Hiding Spot</em></strong>

Aftermath! Zombie Supplement Including zombie in Aftermath! is a fun way to liven up the game which was created way back in 1982, but several of the rules make zombies highly impractical. I’ve created a subset of the rules for dealing with zombies. I’ve made a few assumptions about zombies, but there is room for interruption by the GM. Rule Modifications Several special rules need to be added to allow a more natural zombie experience. Obviously, we have to suspend disbelieve a bit to allow zombies, so these added rule changes should come par for the course. I’ve created the zombie virus definition, special missile hit rules, missile hit location rules, HTH hit rules and zombie class information. Special hit rules allow for more headshots, per zombie movie examples. The justification is that when shooting at a human, they tend to be defensive about being shot in the face. When shooting at a zombie, they just want your brain, they don’t defend against headshots, I’m

Tabletop Wargames: A Designers and Writers Handbook

Rick Priestley

"In summary, the whole is extremely informative and the first place to discover a little-known face of the game of history with figurines. On reflection, the interest of this book far exceeds the strict framework of designers and, if you like the game of history with figurines, do not hesitate to discover this "atypical" but exciting work." (<i>VaeVictis</i>)<br /><br />"Tabletop Wargames lays out issues that designers must resolve, and offer examples of different mechanisms. The book begins with a discussion on the line between a simulation and a game, then covers gaming scales, probabilities, turn sequences, combat resolution, presentation, how skirmish games differ from larger scale games, point values, campaigns and scenarios. There is even a section with advice on how to keep the gaming language neat and tidy so that the rules lawyers do not have a field day. The tone of Tabletop Wargames is conversational, and the book is laden with exemplars from rules sets that most gamers will recognize. It is a quick read, but has enough material to make it worth going back to for reconsideration when making critical decisions about your rules set." (<i>Miniature Wargaming</i>)<br /><br />This paperback is profusely illustrated with color photographs of wargames in progress and offers an extensive list of reference works. This handy book should enable wargamers to create their own richly rewarding experiences. (<i>Toy Soldier &amp; Model Figure</i>)

Personality Runes: A Rune Guide For Personality Readings

Jean Hopkins

Jean Hopkins writes stories that range from Science Fiction to Romance. Occasionally some Mystery is thrown in just to confuse the whole mass of words floating through her head. Jean spends her spare time reading Science Fiction, Fantasy, Romance and the odd Mystery book. She loves playing Strategy and RPG video games, doodling with her Digitizer (what they called em before they called them Wacoms), and chasing her son and daughter everywhere. Jean Hopkins has a different name in the Real World. She goes by Jean Hopkins as a shout-out to her Grandmother, one of the largest influences in her life. Jean says: Hey guys! I hope you all enjoy reading my stories as much as I enjoyed dissecting plot-lines, cursing dialog, and getting lost in the lives of my characters. Have fun!

A Lonely Knave Written by: Peter Rudin-Burgess copyright: 2020 © Parts Per Million Limited CC 4.0 BY This rules supplement allows you to play Knave, created by Ben Milton, as a solo roleplaying game, being both player and your own Game Master (GM).

IntroductIon The battlefield is a dangerous place. Blaster bolts sizzle through the air, psions launch bolts of psychic energy or try to manipulate your mind, and sooner or later you just know someone is going to start throwing grenades. But hey, it can’t get any worse, right? Wrong! This supplement gives the GM an arsenal of tools he can use to spice up combat encoun- ters. They are not designed to be the sole focus of combat, but rather an extra element that heroes and foes alike must cope with if they hope to secure victory. Some are designed for use in space, while others are planetary based. The encounters do present extra work on the GM’s part. While combat should always be fast, furious, and fun; too much emphasis on the former robs the players of the chance to engage in a challenging combat. The hazard rules are streamlined to make them as easy to use as possible, but they will slow the game down a notch. It should also be noted that these additions needn’t be used eve

The Castle Behind Thorns

Merrie Haskell

Haskell effortlessly weaves together internal and external forces, leading to a tense climax. Subtle parallels to Sleeping Beauty are omnipresent, but Sand and Perrottes work of restoring the castle, avenging old wrongs, and forgiving once-bitter enemies takes its own, novel course. (The Horn Book)<br /><br />Exploring a range of weighty subjects, from the horror of war to the difficulty of forgiveness, Haskell makes every subplot and character count, reinforcing the storys elaborate metaphorical and thematic structure. (Publishers Weekly <strong>(starred review)</strong>)<br /><br />The developing relationship between the two main characters is portrayed realistically; its often as prickly as the thorns that surround them. Fans of Gail Carson Levines and Shannon Hales fairy tale adaptations will enjoy the adventure and mystery here. (School Library Journal <strong>(starred review)</strong>)<br /><br />The Castle Behind Thorns is a graceful and enchanting fantasy that celebrates the healing magic of kindness, friendship, and love. I was utterly charmed. (Rae Carson, author of the Girl of Fire and Thorns series)<br /><br />A warm and lovely story about friendship, magic, the long shadow of the past, and blacksmithing. (Robin McKinley, Newbery Medalist author of THE HERO AND THE CROWN and THE BLUE SWORD)<br /><br />Utterly magical . . . a fairy tale about healing a broken castle, a broken soul, a broken country, and a broken heart. (Catherine Gilbert Murdock, acclaimed author of Dairy Queen and Princess Ben)<br /><br />Sand and his passion will resonate with readers of all agesI adored him just as much as my young patrons will. (Ally Watkins, Youth Services Librarian, Central Mississippi Regional Library System)<br /><br />A subtle and engaging parable of healing, The Castle Behind Thorns offers its readers a window into the human metaphor which lies at the roots of fantasy and magic. (Kenny Brechner, DDG Booksellers)<br /><br />I loved everything about this book! From the characters to the themes, it all worked together to form a really fun and interesting story. I think it would make an excellent book club book, it just lends itself to detailed discussion. (Faith Hochhalter, Children's Book Specialist, Changing Hands Bookstore)

Starsailing: Solar Sails and Interstellar Travel

Louis Friedman

Cofounder (with Carl Sagan and Bruce Murray) of the Planetary Society, Friedman spent 10 years working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where he was involved in, among other projects, research on solar sailing. (Three times NASA has rejected the solar sail, which operates on sunlight pressure and uses no fuel.) Friedman describes how the sails work and outlines their history, beginning with the first scientific paper on the subject, written under a pseudonym by engineer Carl Wiley for a 1951 issue of Astounding Science Fiction. In nontechnical language, the author covers the physics of solar sailing, problems of solar navigation, the design and construction of solar sail spacecraft and its promise for the future: "Used as an interplanetary shuttle, the sail would enable us to collect samples on Mars and other planets on a continuing basis." The 72 illustrations include diagrams, paintings and photos. This visionary volume, one of an excellent series of lay science Wiley Science Edition books, is recommended to anyone interested in science. <BR>Copyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc.

FACTION JOURNAL CARDS This document includes seven Faction Journal Cards for Season 10 of the Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild organized play campaign. These are a special way to track your character’s contributions to her faction. Each card is a half-page, double-sided handout so that you can keep it handy during play as a reminder of your faction’s goals. The organized play campaign releases Faction Journal Cards to reflect each faction’s evolving goals and its ties to the current season’s objectives at the beginning of each season. A PC joining a faction can acquire only the most recent version of a faction’s card; however, a PC who has checked at least one box on an earlier season’s faction card may still continue to fulfill its goals and earn its rewards even into the new season. Goals completed on previous Faction Journal Cards do not contribute to those on the new card, except as noted below. Each Faction Journal Card provides one or more new rewards as well as at least

One More Hour A Main Course RPG of Temporary Reprieves an Iron Game Chef Entry for 2006 by Mendel Schmiedekamp March 19, 2006 Forward One More Hour is the fourth RPG in the Full Course of Love and Death, coming between the second main course of The Marriage of Persephone and the last, That Oh So Little Death. You play the same team as you did in The Marriage of Persephone, except due to the favor you received in that game, you have been given a chance to come back and right the wrongs of your untimely death. Unfor- tunately, your strand has already been cut, so you have only an hour to make that dif- ference. After One More Hour, That Oh So Little Death acts as a ending for the entire full course, but will likely involve at least one hero from the team.

48 BFG TACTICS Of all the races in the 41st Millenium, the two most common adversaries of all are without doubt the Battlefleets of the Imperium and the treacherous warfleets of Chaos. The fleets share much in their approach to space warfare, though also rely on their own strengths whilst overcoming their own individual weaknesses. Here, Adam Brown presents a players overview of the fleets, their ships, their strengths and weaknesses, along with some important tactical notes for budding Admirals. OVERVIEW Unlike their Chaos counterparts, Imperial cruisers are not designed to win wars by themselves. The Imperial fleet is a slow, methodical monster. Each cruiser is but a piece of the whole. Conversely, Chaos commanders can afford to have their fleet split apart to some degree. The long reach of their batteries allows their ships to still back one another when separated. Chaos ships are also designed with a solo bravado in mind; each self-obsessed, ambitious captain trying to outdo the ne

The Rise and Fall of the Cthulhu Mythos

S. T. Joshi

The Cthulhu Mythos-the myth pattern spun from the alien entities, forbidden books, and haunted New England towns of H.P. Lovecraft's fiction-is a popular fiction phenomenon that has inspired thousand of horror tales from fans and professionals writing under Lovecraft's spell since the 1920s. In this opinionated but entertaining study, the world's foremost Lovecraft scholar closely scrutinizes the Mythos and finds much to criticize. Separating out as the "Lovecraft Mythos" the stories in which Lovecraft developed his unique mythology, Joshi (H.P. Lovecraft: A Life) sees a distinct difference from the Cthulhu Mythos as practiced by most other writers, primarily in the absence of a cosmic perspective that gives the fictional horrors intellectual weight and gravity. Joshi lays the blame for the Mythos reducing Lovecraft's work to its most superficial aspects on Lovecraft's disciple August Derleth, who misinterpreted the intent of his mentor's work and created the template from which most Mythos fiction ever since has been struck. Though written for the small subculture of horror enthusiasts who will find its arguments provocative, this volume nevertheless offers cogent analyses of hundreds of horror stories that constitute an essential reading list for further study. <BR>Copyright &copy; Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

“Cults can hide in many places. They are so adept at blending into society and masking their true colours that often their victims do not realise that they were even in a cult until they have escaped it. Nor do they fully comprehend the severity of the brainwashing that they were subjected to, until they are finally free of it.” —Natacha Tormey, Cults - A Bloodstained History This Appendix expands on the Globetrotters’ Guide to Cads and Cultists, which introduced new Leagues, cults, nefarious organizations, and secret soci- eties open only to Gamemaster-controlled characters. Since the publication of that supplement, the Leagues line has been expanded to Gothic Horror and the Lovecraft Mythos. In order to make this mini-supplement as useful to as many Gamemasters as possible, several organizations have notes for using them in Leagues of Gothic Horror and/or Leagues of Cthulhu.

Tales from the Infinite Staircase (AD&D/Planescape Adventure)

Monte Cook

Stretching to every plane imaginable, the Infinite Staircase is one of the best-kept secrets of planar travel in the multiverse. Watched over by the mysterious lillendi, the Staircase stretches in all directions, bending back upon itself to form the ultimate three-dimensional maze - and every landing where the Staircase stops, a doorway to a new planar location awaits the traveler.<br /><br />The chaotic morass of energy and matter filling Limbo holds a dark secret - the same secret found in the depths of Baator, in an underground formian hive-city on Arcadia, and in a battle-torn githyanki fortress on the Astral Plane. Using the Infinite Staircase, a group of planewalkers must travel to these far-flung locations, and elsewhere, to learn of a new threat to the planes - and stop it. Even exploring the Staircase itself can be dangerous, particularly when it's ravaged by a barmy fiend and an even crazier sorceress.<br /><br /><b>Tales From the Infinite Staircase</b> features eight separate but linked adventures presented in a new format. The adventures can be played in any order, yet each scenario impacts upon and changes those played after it. Further, the PCs can return to the individual scenario locations and find that conditions have changed so that more adventuring is possible. Each of the eight adventures can also be played separately.

Peters Mid-size Wall Map 24x36 - just the map

Arno Peters

About ODTMaps of Amherst Massachusetts..... When the award-winning TV show, West Wing contacted ODT in February 2001, for permission to feature the Peters Projection map on an episode, ODT was catapulted into the spotlight of the map publishing market. Since that time, the organization has published the "What's Up? South!" world map, the Hobo-Dyer world map, the Population map, the incisive and insightful book, Seeing Through Maps and the fascinating exploration of maps and cartographers - the video and DVD Many Ways to See the World.....ODT, Inc. began as a management consulting company focusing on topics of employee empowerment, performance appraisal, and self-directed work teams. In 1989, ODT pioneered the use of the Peters Projection map materials in a variety of corporate culture change, leadership, and diversity diagnostic projects. With this, our transition began from dynamic consultants to innovative map publishers..... From our origins of providing assistance to human resource departments to now offering new and exciting visual representations of the world through unique maps, ODT's mission of honoring differences and teaching people to see the world from a broader, more inclusive perspective remains at the core of all ODT activities. Plans for the next five years include the publishing of new maps and resource materials, updating of our previous material, and initiating extensive in-service teacher training and train-the-trainer workshops to expand the reach of our message.... We welcome your feedback and suggestions as our company continues to grow. Please feel free to contact us

Starwatch: A Month-by-Month Guide to the Night Sky

Robin Kerrod

Gr. 5-8. Young stargazers will find this an informative, visually exciting introduction to astronomy. Kerrod, an astronomer, begins with the "tools of the trade" and the major elements one can see in the night sky: the sun, the moon, the planets, the comets, and the stars. The book goes on to look at the skies month by month, highlighting in text and vivid computer-generated illustrations exactly which constellations one might see at a particular time from both the northern and southern hemispheres. The introductory text is easy to understand, photographs and diagrams are attractive and usually well labeled, and the captions bolster the text. Occasionally, the information is superfluous (wear warm clothes at night when you star watch), but this is a quibble in the face of such a cornucopia of information. The book includes a "planisphere" in a pocket pasted on the endpapers; with a turn of the map, children can see the stars above the horizon at any given time. <i>Ilene Cooper</i><br /><i>Copyright American Library Association.
