Gaming Resources at this Site

Buff Spell Reference Sheet V1.0
Concise single-page summaries of the standard divine and arcane buff spells from the Player's Handbook, sorted by duration (short, medium, or long) and spell level.  Each spell description clearly indicates the bonus type for each effect.  This reference sheet is especially useful to a dungeon master who needs to quickly determine the net result of stacking multiple buff spells.   The presentation format is similar to Joonas Hirvonen's spell lists (see below).  Version 1.0 revised December 15 2002.
Combat Quick Reference Flowchart
A visual guide to D&D 3rd Edition combat, including a simple flow chart and concise summaries of the most common character combat actions.  Version 1.4 revised September 27 2001.  PDF format.
Mack's Ranger Variant
A variant of the Ranger class proposed by a Frontierlands player, based on the Monte Cook Ranger.
Magic Reference Sheet V2.0
A summary of magic rules to complement Alex Wilson's otherwise more comprehensive D&D Reference Sheets (see below).  Version 2.0 revised June 6 2002.

Links to Other Gaming Resources

The Frontierlands campaign regularly employs content from the following web sites (in rough order of impact to the campaign):

D&D/d20 System News & Reviews.  Daily updates and great message boards.
 
Monte Cook's website provides the highest SNR message boards on the web.
 
The publisher of the Dungeons and Dragons game provides loads of free content at their web site.
 
Working Stiff Productions
Free colour dungeon tiles by Ron Shirtz, hosted at Dewayne Agin's HeroQuest Web Page.
Crooked Staff Productions
More free dungeon tiles and terrain.
D&D Reference Sheets
A set of four handy reference sheets of tables and rules compiled from the D&D core rulebooks plus the Psionics handbook.  Compiled by Alex Wilson.  I pasted the Player and DM sheets over the interior of the WotC DM screen, and I keep the others in a binder nearby along with my own Magic Reference Sheet and Buff Spells Reference Sheet.  Alex's web site is still up, but it hasn't been updated since August 2001.  
Spell Lists
A concise summary of all spells in the PHB, sorted by caster and level.  Created by Joonas Hirvonen.  The site also contains character sheets and a DM sheet (although I've only used the spell lists).
d20 Standard Stat Block Foundation
Dedicated to establishing a unified formatting for d20 statistic blocks, while allowing them to evolve to meet the needs of the d20 System community.
d20 Stat Blocks for Summon Spells
Provides concise stats for all conjured creatures from Summon Monster I to Summon Monster IX, sorted by caster alignment.
