(Note for mods: Not sure if this should be here or in "Gamers Seeking Gamers" since this isn't really for a normal "players and GM" type game. If you think it should be there instead, I understand.) MekWars4Ever Live Cycle Launch-----Saturday May 14, 2011 MekWars is free software which allows...

Are you still recruiting?

Somehow I never noticed that before.

I'm fine with a charisma based Gish, as long as I'm relatively sturdy and playable from level 2 or 3 or so. I'm not as much of a fan of Paladin, if only because I don't want the code holding me back when it comes time to make tough choices (though I could argue that a "good of the many"...

I agree with most of the post above, except that I see no reason why you couldn't apply metamagic to an already metamagicked spell.

No. Your type is "Giant." You could only become a Medium, Large, or Huge "Giant" that has 5 HD or less. So basically, you're pretty much limited to ogres.

After a lengthy discussion in IRC and another on the GITP forums, many people are convinced my plan to create a city state is doomed to fail, since Mulhorand will likely stomp on me like a bug. The common alternate solution is to subvert Free Unther somehow, either through an overt act such as...

With most weapons, being stronger means being able to swing the weapon faster, meaning it is harder for people to dodge. Imagine a 6 strength person and a 18 strength person both swinging the same great axe. Obviously this doesn't apply to all weapons, but it certainly isn't outside the realm...

So I'm playing in a game set in war torn Unther, and I had an idea for a backup character: a young adventurer who wants to try to establish his own personal fiefdom. He plans to try to carve out a small chunk of the Untherite country side and populate it with refugees and freed slaves. If...

I agree with this so much. DM's often don't realize how much simple things like how they describe the game to the players affects how the players prepare. Specifically, saying "hey guys, lets play X module" has a chilling effect on backstory, I've found.

Cohort/hireling seems pretty easy.

Yes you need the feat. Quote from the psion description in the SRD: "A psicrystal is a fragment of a psionic character’s personality, brought into physical form and a semblance of life (via the Psicrystal Affinity feat)."

I agree with the others that removing all PHB spells and feats would DRAMATICALLY and NEGATIVELY impact your gaming experience. Spells would wildly throw off the power balance vis a vis monsters, and feats would take away slews of basic options, as well as prerequisites for many non-Core...

Thanks, I'll definitely check out the link.

Well it was definitely originally intended for 4 players, and plays best that way. None of it is balanced for two player play, and it would just become a race to see who achieved their goals first. Three players is tough because as soon as they decide to gang up on one person, there isn't much...
