Sorry.. thought I was going to be around this weekend AND was not... darn holidays
I'm here
EDIT/ADD: Oh just read the other thread... sorry man and take care. My wife has some problems with depression and that has caused some tension for us also… she is trying to get some help but she is just as stubborn as I am at times so she is trying to work it out herself, which also is frustrating
It will work out for the best, take your time
Karl

Yea, darn holidayzz. Anywho, I hope to start the game next week (monday maybe). I'll be reviewing what equipment requests I have gotten so far & posting the "yeas' tonight. Those that havent posted 'em, please do so asap---I'd also like good descripotions of your pcs as I hope to channel the emotional turmoil that comes with a divorce into art

 

[spidertrag]

picked up d20 apocalypse last week. It expands somewhat on the Mutation Rules

Thats a book I definately want to get---maybe after things settle down from the d-vorce I will---anywo, if u want to run a mutant (of any of the races allowed) go ahead---u wont have to use defects unless u wish to keep LA down---the WotC preview had 8 mutation points for a LA+1 (in addition to base critter)which works for me

Yeah it looked pretty cool, especially the points for +1 LA. (I just don't like the whole crippling a character for the mutation points.)

But I think I will stick with being a tech-wiz.

Spidertag: I've been working on my character and I have a question:

I'm playing a human colonist with the Planetary Adaptation (Low G) feat which grants a +2 to dex. So my dex is now 20. In your intro post you mention a +2 to one stat but I don't understand where it's coming from. Is that only if you're playing a new alien race (i.e. make up your own race and get a +2 to your stat)?

This sounds like a pretty wide-open setting. Can I go ahead and make up the planet's history? I'm actually looking to use a world I used in my own Star Trek campaign a while ago. The history is not Trek-specific of course and should fit into any kind of campaign just fine. Basically the planet was settled by a bunch of utopian mystics so they have a reputation for funky abilities, etc. In my ST game it was an excuse to have Jedi-like characters but my character in this game is somebody who doesn't buy into any of that stuff, which is why he left in the first place.

Spidertrag,

What is the availability of magic items and such in this campaign?

 

[Robbert Raets]

-the WotC preview had 8 mutation points for a LA+1

That's the main reason I went out and bought it.

Take care, and don't rush anything.

Spidertrag,

They exist but are very rare/expensive----you could 'obtain' it easier if worked into your background (which i'll work all of yalls home planet/place of origin into the game)
