The opponent is still grappled until they break free. But since Pinning and Crushing are results of a successful grapple attack, you have to make a grapple attack each time you want to Pin and Crush them.

I'm most likely going to be on vacation, so I probably can't make it. :( But if that falls through, I'm definitely in!!

I think: 1) Diverting Defense would still work as long as the attackers are in flanking positions and you affect one with your Dodge feat, even if they don't get a bonus to attack due to flanking. 2) You could make a trip with an unarmed attack from Cause Overreach but only tripable weapons...

I don't mind out-of-character joking but any camp in-character ruins the feel that I like in a game. Any camp makes it seem like many anime shows, and that's not my cup of tea.

Dimensional Shackles from the DMG. "These shackles have golden runes traced across their cold iron surface. Any creature bound within them is affected as if a dimensional anchor spell were cast upon her (no save). They fit any Small to Large creature. The DC to break or slip out of the shackles...

I like that rule a lot, I thought the Dark Side needed to be more tempting.

In a Star Wars game our bountyhunter group had to retrieve a piece of art. My character handed it off to my brother's character and then got caught by the people we stole it from. Enforcer: "Where's the sphere?" Me: "It's too late, I already handed it off to the Jawa." Enforcer: "We'll find...

I'm no expert but I think the 225 silver is to see whether or not the item is completed, not the price it took to make it. I think that should be 1/3 of the normal cost. If you want you can make checks by the day instead of by the week: "Progress by the Day: You can make checks by the day...

A "Bad" in my opinion is adding the Bellow as a racial ability of Ithorians. I thought it was silly in the Clone Wars and making it now a racial ability is the kind of re-write that frustrates me about Episodes 1-3.

We're playing in a Rebellion Era game after Episode IV (and looking for players, if anyone in Baltimore is interested! wednesdayboy[at]gmail[dot]com). Wingsandsword pretty much hit the nail on the head for me too. I love the Rebellion and New Republic eras, the Yuuzhan Vong did not capture any...

Yeah, that was what I was getting at. Is your response a RAW answer or just how you'd rule it?

To Craft Alchemical items the rules say "You must be a spellcaster to craft any of these items." Does that mean you must have levels in a spellcasting class or does having Spell-Like Abilities count as well? For example: could a Gnome Rogue get any use out of its Craft (Alchemy) racial bonus...

Hey Ruleslawyer, I didn't get the e-mail but I'd love the info. I'm at wednesdayboy(at)gmail(dot)com. I appreciate it!

Thanks for the input, all. It sounds like there isn't anything special to keep in mind for FR kobolds. Just play the lizardy little buggers like I would in any setting!

I'm going to try my hand at a kobold in a FR game and wanted to see if there was any campaign-specific info I should know ahead of time.
