    ThirdWizard's Magic Item Bazaar

    I presume the -2 Dex and -1 reflex penalty stack, for a total of -2 to REF?

    Hag Eye

    From the SRD: I seem to recall reading that a hag covey can only have one hag eye in existence at a time, but the SRD/MM doesn't actually say that. Anyone know of anything that says the covey can only have x hag eyes in existence at a time, or is the number unlimited?

    Stat block as Word doc?

    Not quite what you asked for, but I like the Monster Monograph doc's for making splat sheets. He just has the SRD critters in it, but I edited my copy to include things like a certain floating spherical critter with many eyes.

    D&D 4E Will you buy 4e?

    Dunno. I'll take a look at the previews and the SRD and decide from there.

    Do you agree with WotC selling errata?

    The examples presented are not the same as charging for an errata sheet, as the poll question implied. A revised or new edition, or a compilation of previous books' material does not constitute charging for errata. The last only time I've seen a book publisher actually recall a book was when...

    Worst Puns you ever did.

    One time I was making a mid-level character for a new campaign, and decided on a ranger- rogue multiclass. Except I wrote on the paper rouge ranger. When I finally painted a miniature for the character, he had a red cloak.

    Cue the Choir (Final Battle music)

    The music you are referring to is The Gael, a Scottish piece. You should find a version done on bagpipes. The Royal Scots DG have two very good renditions on their Highland Cathedral and Parallel Tracks albums.

    Two Flail Ideas

    I think flails should ignore the shield AC bonus, rather than getting a bonus to disarm. This is a discussion by some SCA guys that were playing with flails.

    Harry Potter-Style Wizards

    In one of the stories (when they were at the World Quidditch Cup) Voldemort's Death cult guys were throwing fireballs around. Made me wonder why, with all the other wizards around, no one could fight back. Also, they had the snake sigil thing in the sky at the time, so that should be Illusion...

    Google Patents: A Wonderful Resource

    The first weapon looks like the XM11 rifle (H&K) project for the US Army, which has been scrapped. The second looks like a French 5.7mm SMG variant (FN) that I can't recall the name of at the moment. The breathing mask and bubble helmet are both very old (1941 and 1965, respectively). So yes...

    D&D 5E Armor as DR (considering it for my next campaign)

    I've played other game systems where armor=DR (GURPS, TW:2K, Traveller, Shadowrun), and I like the feel in those games. I think it would work well if you are also using an alternate HP system.

    Jdrakeh's WLD campaign

    The campaign jdrakeh started on this thread is on hold until the new year, but I thought I'd make a write up to remind myself of what happened on that fateful night.... This is written from the perspective of my halfling cartographer, Fédro. We are using the True20 rules instead of the...

    The Widdershins Forge

    Read the description again. I know I had to. The full market value is paid up front, and then after the spells are cast into the forge, half the market value is returned. So in the end, the only difference is the time spent making the item.
