    A question for those of you who have used Mongoose Publishing's Book of Immortals...

    In one section of the book it states that immortals on the way through apotheosis cannot gain skill points. Then immediately under this the book states that immortals can gain skill points as they level in mortal classes per standard epic characters. These sound like they counter eah other. What...

    How would you stat out wing suits?

    Found a vid for wing suits on this site: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=20040287 Now, who wouldn't want their character to do this in their Modern/Future games?? Any ideas as to how it can be stated out?

    How would you stat this weapon?

    We have a toy at our local gaming shop that looks like a plastic ball, until you spin it. Centripitle force causes it to open, revealing something out of an Eicher painting. Suppose you had a weapon that did something similar? It looked like a ball until throw, in which it would unfold to...

    How would you stat this 'poison'?

    The idea is a future based 'poison' consisting of fast growing/cloning nerve tissue. The idea is that it would create erratic connections with the creatures own nervous system, causing unpredictable spasms and possibly death from misfiring/misdirected nerve clusters. The effect would last until...

    Your thoughts on 'Xcrawl"?

    I've pre-ordered the book, and what I've seen is a blast. I LOVE the fluff. That being said, is there anything I should look out for? Odd mechanics, possible abuse, etc?

    More wizards rumor mongering...

    Some of the posters on the WotC site feel that the mods have gone into overdrive deleting posts and threads. I'v only seen one deleted, after which the mod who did the deleting made a new thread on the same subject. Has anyone noticed a trend, or is this paranoia kicking in amongst the WotC...

    If you were an arcane mechanik/telepath, what kind of tech would you specialize in?

    One of my players is starting a gestalted character with the above classes. He's claiming to be part of an R&D firm for exotic tech. He's also looking at feats that allow him to 'grow' tools and objects from specified terrains (it is treated as masterwork for time and cost considerations). So...

    What's this I hear about Wizards suing WizKids??

    I'm hearing over the grape vine that WotC tried to sue the makers of Pirates of the Spanish Main, claiming they had the patent on TCG. Per the same source, they were suing WizKids over the Pocket Model TCG for Star Wars. Apparently, WotC dropped the suit. Wiz Kids is supposedly counter suing...

    Need help designing a long term patrol craft for Dragon Star

    I'm not asking for everyone to design this, I just need pointers on how to cram this into a ship. I'd also like heads up on anything I may be missing. I'm not much of an engineer. I'm restarting a DS campaign soon, closely resembling my last (players left the last campgin, and those remaining...

    How big is Serenity?

    The ship from the show Firefly. I'm starting a Dragon Star campaign (had to scrap the last do to players leaving. Remaining players asked me to start a new one) and would like to give the players a sense of perspective concerning ship sizes.

    The Gun-Fu bayoneted rifle fighter: priliminary ideas.

    Some ideas I have so far for this idea, using examples for the 'Masters of Arms' book. It's just the basics; I haven't added mechanics to it yet. Your feedback nis appreciated. :) Close Quarters Shot: You don't draw AoO's from shooting in melee. Stab and Shoot: A two part combo for the...

    For those of you familiar with 'Masters of Arms': where to start?

    I'm trying to use the combo system provided in this book to create a gun-fu, bayoneted rifle style prc. Thing is, besides close combat shooting w/o AoO's, I'm drawing a blank. Can anyone suggest some two through 5 beat combos that sound worthwhile?

    Fishing for bayoneted rifle gun-fu ideas...

    I already posted something similar in the OGL section: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=3536438#post3536438 I thought oif it at work, and now the idea won't go away!! :mad: The idea is combining firearms proficiency with double weapon use (bayonet and butt stock). ANyone know where...

    Need ideas for bayoneted rifle gun-fu

    Just thought it up at work, and now it won't leave until I work it out. :mad: The idea is using a reinforced rifle/bayonet combo as a close quarters double weapon (a funky shortspear?) and the rifle for ranged, with exceptional fighters able to mix the two (shooting in a stance that...

    Your thoughts on Dragon #346's 'Fortune Telling' stat generation

    I bought the Three Dragon Ante cards to try this out. It's a 11 card 'spread' that adds a random twist to the point buy system. Seems fun in testing (albiet something like those magic tricks relying on math), but I haven't used it in real play yet. What were your experiences, if any?

    Is there a 'Casting on the Run' feat?

    Reads as the title. Is there a feat that allows a caster to move and cast as per Shot on the Run?

    How much would this item cost?

    I'm stealing this idea from Aeon Flux, sort of. One of our players (a sorcerer of small size) will be getting a bodyguard in power armor soon. I'm thinking later of having a dimensional space added the armor via a modified back storage area. A nice portable place to hide, deal, relax, etc...

    Looking for a particular picture...

    It's an anime style picture. It has a girl holding a huge gun with the caption 'WEAPON SIZING: So I take a -4 to hit. Big Deal!'. (I'm paraphrasing, but it's close). I saw it as part of a You tube music/anime remix video. I love it, but I haven't been able to find another version. Has anyone...

    Suggested XP progression for NPC's...

    My players are getting more involved in the story, so I need a consistent progression for the NPC's. What's a good estimate for their progression? Would they gain exp per year, for example? Thanks in advance. :)

    Charging and AoO's

    I'm slightly confused. The rules say that a charge doesn't generate an AoO. However, I'm hearing that the charge is a separate action from the movement of the charge. Supposedly, the movement from charging still generates an AoO. Is this true?
