    Meta-Gaming: Definition

    Thanks Everyone Thanks for all of the input, I am definitely going to try to put it to use. Specifically, I need to get the manuals out of view. I have a scanner and that seems like the easiest way to have stuff available when I need it. The NPC interaction is going to be tough to do. I...

    Meta-Gaming: Definition

    Follow Up Thoughts Thank you all for the replies. The basic situation is this. I have a player who, like many out there, takes the time to know the rules. What I have called Meta-Gaming may be more accurately described as simple rules-lawyering, which I can handle. The crux is that I...

    Meta-Gaming: Definition

    Greetings, Long time reader, first time poster...blah, blah, Anyway, I am having issues with a few of my players on the proper definition of Meta-Gaming and I would like to solicit some definitions from the forum on what exactly constitutes meta-Gaming. I will withhold my opinion on the...

    Help me kill Darmanicus & Friends!

    More Tactical Thoughts I gotta agree with you on the above points... Yes, this is very frustrating... What if the githzerai and slaad pair off in teams? Although unlikely in long-term slaad/gith relationships, it makes sense for them to take advantage of their relative strengths...

    Help me kill Darmanicus & Friends!

    Rystil, Yes, you and the others have raised very good points. I have grossly overlooked a few things in my post. I just picked up the Expanded Psionics Handbook last week and missed the limit on PSP vs Manifester Level. Moreover, in the spirit of fairness, I also frown on the use of...

    Help me kill Darmanicus & Friends!

    Now that's the Ticket! I think Jhartaine makes a very good point in the way he is approaching the problem. The problem with giving the NPCs tons of really good equipment is that the players will have access to them when the fight is over. Apply sparingly. First, Morrus needs to take the...
