Yeah... okay. Clearly this isn't a community I want a part in. Second time today, my first day, I've been treated like I'm being a huge dick when I wasn't being insulting to anyone in any form. Being incorrect? Fine. AoOs are one of the more complicated areas of 3.5 combat. I'll take it on the...

Okay... learn to laugh. I was jokingly going to call you a diceist, but clearly, joking with you is out.

I've been running a Pathfinder game of late, and the party is doing really spelndidly. They've preformed above and beyond anything I could have expected of them. I have three characters now with the Leadership feat, naming their cohorts as proxies for them in case they get held up during...

If you're in melee without Quick Draw, then yes it does. It's like if I have a sword to your throat, and you're just starting to go for your weapon. I'm getting my attack off in that time. Now, Billy the Kid on the other hand, could stand a solid chance, since he was a quick draw master

Why are the dice not involved in your fun? They should be the first thing included in the festivities. I've had perfectly fun times, as has the entire group, without having to cut any part of the game out, or fudge on anything. I don't see how the two are mutually exclusive goals.

I'm pretty strict with it, honestly. But then, I'm strict on my side of the shield as well. I don't fudge dice either way, no unstatted NPCs of uber-awesome. I hold my side of things to the same rules as the players.

To my mind, the core problem was that they took all the Dungeons & Dragons parts out of D&D. Characters lost a lot of depth in 4e, which was exactly the opposite of the way it needed to go. There was almost no real chance of death for PCs unless you're just feeling vindictive as a GM, which...

I've been running a Kingmaker campaign myself, as it got us out of the standard "Go to X, kill monsters, get treasure, move on". We're on Book 3 now, just at the beginning of Varnhold Vanishing, and the PC Death Toll is 13. It got so bad that the group actually have taken a habit of leaving a...

Well let's do a scenario: A pair of Rogues sneak up on your fighter in town, and flank for sneak attack on the surprise round. Since it's town, you have no weapon drawn. In order to draw a weapon without Quick Draw, you have to provoke Attack of Opportunity from BOTH Rogues, even if you take the...
