    What weapons, classes, races...

    Been a long while since I last posted (or even lurked) but might as well throw in our most recent campaign's mix :D FR Mulhorandi-based game: Female Mulan Fighter 4: MW Scythe Male Mulan Fighter 4: Khopesh Male Mulan Cleric 3/Wizard 1: Sickle Female Mulan Sorcerer 4: MW Quarterstaff and spells

    Dice Questions?

    Tales from the Floating Vagabond used the d30 as part of the normal rules... I believe it was used for the weapons of size class "Don't Point That Thing at my Planet", but I could be wrong ;)

    D20 Glut Bubble Bursts

    I guess it is entirely possible that in some locations this particular phenomenon is just now hitting, but where I am we had the boxes and shelves full of discounted D20 stuff two to three years ago, and it just keeps growing ;) Not that I'll complain too much, mind you. It's nice to pick up...

    D&D: How Many Core Books

    And not entirely true about Rolemaster, either ;) Right toward the end (when ICE went on "hiatus", for lack of a better word) they had distilled Rolemaster to a single FRPG book, which was all you needed to run the game, if you didn't want to expand into levels above about 10, or into classes...

    Can't place this song...[help!]

    Urgh.... I recognize the song, and I want to say it's from something like Dragonheart, but don't quote me on that. I'll see if I can dredge the rest of my memory banks and figure it out ;)

    Complete Adventurer - 10 Reasons for Players on Wizards site

    I don't remember having a hedge... but maybe it has something to do with having a chimney thrown at me earlier in the day.... ;) (Sorry, I just couldn't resist) To me, the "conclusion" of the "Complete" series will be an interesting study in what they have chosen to "port over" from the splat...

    What are the dimensions of a poker chip?

    You could head to your local craft supply store and get sheets of foam or plasticard, and then cut your own out of it. Granted, the plasticard will probably be a bit of a pain, but you might be able to use something along the lines of a cookie cutter for the foam, especially if you can find the...

    White Gold Conversion

    If you have access to Arcana Unearthed, the Oathsworn class in there struck me as VERY similar to the Bloodguard ;) All in all, though, I think that the world setting could be an interesting one to base a game in, but you'd have to be careful about what path you took. I'd almost see it as more...

    Stupid Author Syndrome

    I'll throw a D&D adventure SAS mention in, just so that there's at least one more than before ;) Why is it that authors feel the need to equip "monster" NPCs with rapiers when they give them levels in the Rogue class? We all began to look at it as a running gag when we would run into a hostlie...

    Unearthed Arcana SRD on hold...

    I started a Rules Variant SRD, a couple of months back, to make available some options from the aformentioned "Antiquities Exhumed" (to borrow from a thread from quite some time ago) work that we were considering using in a "work in progress" campaign. It's not really in much shape to be shown...

    New Server Drive - donation and prize thread (Final total: $13,310!)

    I was just going to quietly make my $25 donation and leave it at that, but I finally decided I'd go ahead and post a quick note and mention that I sent $25 toward the upgrade(s) a few hours back. I lurked for a long while before I ever registered, and I've been mostly lurking since (though I...

    Is it OK to distribute others' OGC for free?

    Kuo-T.... no, wait, that's PI. Ummm..... nasty little frog-like bipedal creature thingies green! ;)

    Is it wrong to want a fair share?

    I'm not a big one for mincing words, so if I didn't say it, then I didn't mean it :D What I did mean is that the gaming groups I've had the pleasure of being a part of have had people (regardless of age, since there were some huge disparities in some of them, like the one group where the...

    Is it wrong to want a fair share?

    As has been said by several people, our group (and now that I think about it, pretty much every group I've played in over the last 24 years) uses the "work it out amongst ourselves in character" method. We don't assign values to the items and split them evenly. We don't even really judge a...

    Help! I'm losing most of my players to moving!

    I don't know about others, and I'm not sure how interactive you'd like your game, but I've had a lot of fun playing and running games on the play-by-post site Story Crafter (http://www.storycrafter.com). It has a built in dice roller, as the game master you can set up "acts" that are private so...

    D&D vs. Real Life

    In D&D I can make snap decisions, dole them out to my party members, who will act instantly on the information, and we will make it through yet another encounter with everyone mostly intact. In real life I can make snap decisions, dole them out to my 3 year old daughter, who will continue to do...

    What's your 'dump stat'?

    Well, to echo several other people, I didn't vote at all. Not only do I not have a single "dump stat", but I don't even have a dump stat based on character class. To me it all comes down to the concept I have in mind. As an example, I have two different fighter characters who have two very...

    OT: WoD: Homebrew: Highlander

    It's all fixed. Something just got missed when things were ported to the new machine :D

    OT: WoD: Homebrew: Highlander

    The link for this was working when I went to bed last night, but due to some hardware refreshing and everything else, it's not working right now. I'll update here when we get the issue resolved ;)
