So...we can't discuss the builds but you can? We're discussing the builds since the thread is about our reactions to the quality of the book, and are therefore not a threadjack. But hey, let's leave the modding to the mods, k?;) He disagreed with my argument that some of the builds were...

Really? Whedon has always been hailed as a even-handed writer of strong female characters, and to my knowledge has never been accused of being a femnazi (mysandrist). Please elaborate. Is it just the parents thing?

Three words: Machine-gun Punches.:cool: Fighting doesn't necessarily mean martial artist, it just an abstraction of how likely they are to hit. And a person called "the flash" should be pretty accurate. MM is not a light-weight, but he isn't an A-lister either. Black Adam is roughly equal...

You get a big ditto from me about Impervious. It just looks like a waste of points. Definitely something to houserule.

And that would miss, as Barry's attack abilities are really low. The only thing that is at his power level is his move object skill. I have. It was a tie in to 52, the premise of which was that all the big leaguers were gone for a year and the heavy lifting was left to the B listers. That's...

I just received the book in question a few days ago from Amazon. I owned 2e and found the new rules to be a pretty good cleanup of the previous edition. A few quick notes of criticism though: The rules are fine, but some of the stat write-ups are made of nerd-rage bait. Some examples...

Kewl. I voted that I liked polls because I'm both equally fond and disappointed in D&D fiends. With the exception of the 'loths, most are cribbed from myth. I do like the Mazoku from Slayers.

I think I understand the confusion a bit better now. I believe this arises because of a a fundamental misunderstanding of what the chaotic alignment means for a character. Chaotic only implies that character in question places a high priority on freedom. Law implies a love of order. Although...

Blarg! I'm surprised at how many people hated the old 9-point alignment system. Is it really that difficult to tell a CN character from a CE one? As far as I know, CN=selfish hippie and CE=sociopath. Big difference.

Fixed. Merry Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Winter Solstice Everyone!

I would like to hear the thoughts of the gaming community on converting OA classes to Pathfinder. The Wujen is of particular interest. Thoughts?

I've heard that many of the other classes don't need updating because of how strong they already are (ToB classes come to mind). I understand that, but what about non-core classes that were actually much weaker than their standard counterparts? I'm thinking of the Warmage a little bit but...

I'm still waiting for my rulebook from Amazon.

Mine has the estimated shipping dates of the 8th to the 30th (of November), so I've got a few days left to see if any shipping happens.

Wow, things are tough south of the ol' equator. I spent $25 on my Beta hardcopy. At least you have great health care! ;)

Thanks guys, this has been quite helpful.

I'm sorry, I have failed my knowledge [abbreviations] check-- what is CMD?

Hi guys, I bought the paperback version of the Beta rules about six months or so ago. I've been wondering if i should invest in the final rules for Pathfinder. I have checked out the srd, but other than a few things here and there, I don't really see a huge difference between the Beta and the...

This is my one and only account. I usually try to stick with something like Ares or at least something with "Ares" in it when I'm on the web. What exactly would be the advantage of having multiple accounts? Wouldn't admins be able to tell who it was based on their IP address or some such...

My father has a joke they told when he was drafted during Vietnam: "A Doctor puts his hand on you and the other hand on the wall--whichever's warmer they take!" "Did you register with Selective Services when you turned 18? Was it before or after the Gulf War of 1991? Was it before or after...
