Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern - A Modern Granger Railroad
Andy Cummings and Jerry Huddleston
Manufacturer: South Platte Press
ProductGroup: Book
Binding: Paperback
ASIN: 0942035712

Product Description

This is the inside story of how a routine abandonment in western South Dakota led to the nations longest regional railroad. The story begins along the west bank of the Mississippi River in the mid-1850s and ends with the Powder River Basin project in 2005. It's told by the businessmen, politicians, shippers and employees who were there. In short, this is about railroads and provides evidence of the hubris and hard work of DM&E's backers.

Book Description

DM Screen and Adventure for Character Levels 1-3

Remember the good old days, when adventures were underground, NPCs were there to be killed, and the finale of every dungeon was the dragon on the 20th level? Those days are back. Dungeon Crawl Classics don't waste your time with long-winded speeches, weird campaign settings, or NPCs who aren't meant to be killed. Each adventure is 100% good, solid dungeon crawl, with the monsters you know, the traps you fear, and the secret doors you know are there somewhere.

This 8-panel DM screen, designed especially for 3.5 rules, includes all the reference panels a DM needs during his game. It is illustrated with gorgeous art from the Dungeon Crawl Classics line, and comes packaged with The Ruins of Castle Churo, a new adventure for character levels 1-3. The heroes have to bring justice to marauding bandits who have taken refuge in castle ruins - but this castle was long ago destroyed by a magical accident whose effects still linger!

Castle Midian Approved DM Screen.......2007-04-27

In the days of old, I remember taping index cards to a manila folder and then duct-taping the edges together; soon pizza stains & soda rings formed and v'wa-la! A seasoned DM screen. Inside these walls the DM snickers and the sound of dice clatter; this DM screen is just what I've been waiting for since High School. Nice and heavy construction the DM screen also has a nice plastic coating that should put up with even the best delivery pizza's or energy drink. Stocked with all the needed quick reference tables this DM screen tops off a nostalgic game table.

Ideal supplement for dramatic role-playing.......2000-05-02

Here's the most comprehensive, engaging view of Ravenloft ever created. The set includes 288 pages (!) of roleplaying materials, with rules for horror and madness, curses, magic, treasures, characters, settings, and much more; a beautiful poster, enormous world maps, and best of all, the beautifully crafted tarot deck (complete!) that becomes invaluable for atmospheric storytelling. A tour de force of dramatic roleplaying!

A Collecter's Item.......2000-02-25

The Ravenloft Campaine Setting is one of the first to have come to the AD&D world. The 2nd Edition Box Set is a rare collecter's item and should be in any Ravenloft lover's hands.

Book Description

Are you caught off guard when your players decide to visit the NPC blacksmith from 4 sessions ago whose name you can't remember? Do you have trouble recalling whether the unidentified potion of bull's strength is the blue one or the sparkly green one? And what day was that dwarven religious holiday again?

A first-of-its-kind playing aid, this campaign tracker is an essential tool for third edition DM's. Gone are the days of paper scraps and loose-leaf notebooks! The DM Campaign Tracker is a carefully designed booklet with space to record all information about an ongoing campaign: NPC stats, XP tracking, session logs, character reference, world info, and more. Just as every player needs a character sheet, every DM needs a campaign tracker!

This book uses the 3.5 edition of the d20 rules set, and is fully compatible with the world's most popular role playing game.

Book Description

"Must be judged as a landmark in medical sociology."--Norman Denzin, Journal of Health and Social Behavior

"Profession of Medicine is a challenging monograph; the ideas presented are stimulating and thought provoking. . . . Given the expanding domain of what illness is and the contentions of physicians about their rights as professionals, Freidson wonders aloud whether expertise is becoming a mask for privilege and power. . . . Profession of Medicine is a landmark in the sociological analysis of the professions in modern society."--Ron Miller, Sociological Quarterly

"This is the first book that I know of to go to the root of the matter by laying open to view the fundamental nature of the professional claim, and the structure of professional institutions."--Everett C. Hughes, Science

Book Description

Chapayev, written while Soviet literature was yet in its infancy, has become a heroic epic of the socialist revolution. A novel about the gifted and popular Civil War hero and commander Vasily Ivanovich Chapayev (1887-1919) - about the role of the Party in educating the people in the communist spirit.

Dmitry Furmanov, the commissar of the Chapayev Division, wrote his novel drawing largely on his diaries, personal observations, reminiscences of his contemporaries, and historical archives. But the documentary truth of Chapayev did not restrict the ideological and artistic merits of the novel: Furmanov created a work of immense capacity, far-reaching generalizations, a book about the revolutionary people - creator of their own history and their own heroes.
