MERPS and any game where everytime you do something you have to look it up on a table. I hate tables.

Sounds neat. Anyone who has it want to give us a more detailed review?

Depends on how complicated you want to make it. One solution I have used with the un-critable is to change everything to Fortification, IOW rather than being immune to crits there is simply a % chance that due to unusual physiology that the crit fails to do the multiplier damage. I also appy...

Well I am pleasently suprised, but shouldn't be. Overall ENworlders are generally polite and obey the rules, I was just expecting that this kind of thread would surely attract someone who couldn't. I shouldn't have. I withdraw my expectation.

I am about to be 37. Yes. Just before (I turned 18 in 1990) Way before. My father (viet nam: 3 purple hearts) and great uncle (WWII: Congregtional Medal of Honor) were decorated vets, but I had no desire to go to war, but was raised to do my duty if called upon. I was about to go into college...

I've done it from both sides of the screen and have no problems with it. As a player I tend to make one of the PCs a strong silent type who nevertheless has some personality quirks to give him some RPing hooks. For example, I played a Cleric who was mostly quietly supportive, but tended to...

You can try this site: Home | DM Tools: No Prep Time, No Problem! or this one d20 NPC Wiki. I use them both all the time for NPCs and it could be a good place to start for pregens.

I didn't know there was a song.

A New Gamer was brought into the world on March 23rd at 10:47 PM Central time. Her name is Rebekah Lynn and she weighed 7 lbs. and 7 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. She has curly red hair and momentarily blue eyes ("No! I have gray eyes" she says, but I don't think thats settled.) She has...

The way I handle it is this: Hirelings do not effect XP at all. The reason being is that the PCs have already lost gp to use them, they should not loose XP as well. As someone else pointed out, hirelings are expendables just like scrolls or potions. However, if the hirelings are...

No, that is not correct in general, but could be someone's House Rule. All it takes is a glance at some character optimization threads to see that at the very least most people don't play this way.

Given the frequency of goblin death and the likely fertility of the tribe, whatever it is it will be done often, and occasionally in large numbers. Therefore death can't be that big of a deal for the goblins - no week long rituals or elaborate ceremonies. Perhaps there is a special kind of...

CoCd20 Magic works just fine in d20 Modern, but its not going to be anything like the default magic system. Magic is only going to be used when it is absolutely neccesary. Why cast a divination spell at all if you can hire a private dective or do the leg work yourself? Why cast a spell in...

I would not. Swashbuckling Adventures, at times, suffers from poor mechanics and balance issues. Great for inspiration, but not so great from a mechanical standpoint. I just never did feel like it worked well with other d20 products. While I have no personal experiance I have heard the...

BESM d20 offers a point based character construction system as well.

Aren't there giants that wade through the silt seas?

Yeah, and the more I look into it the more I remember how horrible a lot of the mechanics are. In the end I just decided to take some of the IK feel and rough out some of my own mechanics for what I want.

I had wondered what happened. Its odd when you don't see him around. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and you and yours during this time.

I allow Trapfinding as a feat in my campaigns, but make Disable Device a prereq. Its not a problem. As long as you are not worried to much about class skills giving those out isn't a big deal either.

I have a real mish-mash campaign going on right now and want to include some Iron Kingdom elements in the PCs next destination. I was hoping to find some premade adventures I could steal from. The party is 12th level, which given that they may be slightly overpowered means they should be able...
