    NFL Draft!!

    Russell to Raiders was the only good pick for them. Hopefully, he will help that franchise get back on track. Now the draft could get interesting.

    How Many Actual Sessions Has Your Current Long-Term Campaign Had?

    My homebrew D&D campaign started Oct. 13, 2000 and continues today. 120 sessions so far, about 4-5 hours per session.... so say 550 hours or so. Party currently averages around 15th level. Sights firmly set on epic-level play, but no rush (obviously). Session log is here, if anyone's curious...

    Breaking the stereotype of the chaste paladin

    Hi The Sigil, I couldn't agree more about your point of D&D being a game of moral absolutes. I think many people overlook this aspect of D&D, some intentionally, some quite knowingly. But core D&D is a setting with a cosmology that is structured around planes and beings that are absolute...

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

    $50 via PayPal to server fund. $35 via PayPal to renew Community Supporter. ____ = $85 less for me to waste on more DDM. But it's all good. Cheers, -War Golem

    I don't want to be a D&D collector

    Just curious - what Dune RPG are you referring to? The one WotC had for sale at GenCon 2000? What is it going for on eBay? Not that I have any interest in selling my copy, particularly, but everyone has their price, I suppose. And to contribute to this thread, I can echo the sentiments of the...

    Monster Manual 3 art gallery

    It is a necrothane, a champion of the rot reaver species. About twice as powerful as a normal rot reaver, and sporting jet-black full plate armor. Cheers, War Golem

    Monster Manual 3 Available at Gencon [merged]

    MM3 is not so different from MM2 and FF that you could not answer that one for yourself even without having yet seen MM3. It is different from Monsternomicon in all the same ways those previous WotC monster books are. I just think MM3 is a definite notch above MM2 and FF - in artwork, content...

    Monster Manual 3 Available at Gencon [merged]

    I think that's a given. The only question (in my mind) is if they will somehow go back and apply it to vampires, liches, etc...

    The previous listing is wrong. MM3 has an entry for "Sand Giant," not "Desert Giant." Semantics aside, the MM3 monster amounts to the same thing. It's a desert dwelling giant. CR 10, usually LN. I really don't think they add much to the game, other than filling yet another ecological niche for...

    Unholy Toughness I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet, but there is a new (or I don't recall seeing it before) Special Quality for many of the undead in this book called Unholy Toughness. This essentially lets the undead creature use its Charisma instead of its (missing) Constitution...

    Flind is listed as a Gnoll sub-species. CR 2. The art is by V. Rams. The picture is good, but I don't like Rams' style for D&D, personally. Lumi remind me a lot of the Luminous race from Fantasy Flight's Mythic Races. Except the Lumi has a floating head that is not attached to its body, which...

    More slanted toward Eberron, I'd say, but FR is represented. All of the other trolls are Giant type. Living Construct subtype is only for warforged creatures in this book. Almost an entire 1/2 page of the book is taken for the explanation and specs of this subtype.

    Monster Manual 3 Available at Gencon [merged]

    I picked this book up at GenCon and after having skimmed through it once, I think it is great. There are definitely a few really lame monsters and illos in the book, but overall, most of the monsters seem like good, solid concepts and the pictures are well done. The art overall is a clear step...

    After Ennies Party/Dinner at Gencon

    Please add 2 more, for myself and my g/f, who have just now confirmed that we will be returning to Gen Con this year. Thanks. Looking forward to this. Meeting so many great people from EN World was the highlight of the convention for us last year. Cheers, War Golem

    Improved Spring Attack?

    Yes, of course, agreed. Possession of these other pre-requisite feats was implied. I didn't take the time to write them up all formal-like. I'm just frustrated by WotC's overall lack of support for feats targeted specifically for characters in the 10-20 level range. Cheers, War Golem

    Improved Spring Attack?

    I have most WotC books and was pretty sure I'd never seen an Improved Spring Attack feat, but I'm surprised no 3rd party book hasn't had something along those lines by now (Mongoose's Quintessential Fighter, for example). This feat for high level fighter-types seems like a no-brainer to me...

    Chain Lightning & Spell Resistance

    Hi folks, If Chain Lightning fails to get through the Spell Resistance of the primary target, do the secondary arcs still jump over to the secondary targets, or is the spell blown completely? Thanks, War Golem

    Improved Spring Attack?

    Hi folks, Are there any published feats that improve upon the Spring Attack feat? I don't have the book in front of me right now, but as I recall Spring Attack allows the PC to move their normal movement rate and take a single attack somewhere along the way. Is there a feat anywhere that...
