    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    back Hello UK. I was posting 2 threads ago. While I didn't continue to do so, i looked from time to time at your progress. Now I bought your 0.7 pdf file on Ascension. Could you, or anyone else, tell me a link where you explain the choice of your ascension method ? I mean, the work looks...

    Well, when everything will be ready, after "beta-teXting" ^_^, let me know, UK. Oh, and by the way, remember that's just a START. There's a nice full book of Immortal Rules to do next. :p

    Anabstercorian, I'm with you too. :) Do you have cats, UK ? Since Anabstercorian is taking the dogs, I could use your cats. Especially since your main web site seems to be down. :p Edit: now it works... 1st time in 2 days.. I knew I had to say something bad about it somewhere to obtain some...

    Albeit not being a perfect 3ed rule guru, I tend to agree with the core of the posters here. The idea that ANYONE's magic would still work, even if lessened, in an antimagic area simply takes out, IMHO, the whole mean of "anti-magic" word, It becomes, like you said, a "lessen magic" (or...

    I don't know why but this is the post I liked the most. :p So, U_K, what about putting some more "action" and less "thought" ? :D Oh, and for the votes, my humble opinion would be for the first two, for some of those same reasons already written on these boards. But since I want you to decide...

    Totally correct. :) Apologies for that. We wouldn't want UK not finishing his work. :p (how long it was since he started btw ?) So, can someone here tell what UK did finish yet (books/chapters of IH), and what is his next step towards this ultimate work ? :)

    No, I don't think it was in the main core books. At least not that I remember of. Maybe it was in one of the magic books, about "wish" and similar. True, it's +3, my bad. Ok 6th level is better. I still do not like it at all, I must admit. I don't know about 3ed, but spell creation in 2ed is...

    Level limits for races different than humans were a Player's Handbook thing, already dealt with in the same years DMG in different manners. The first was to push back the limit from 1 to 4 levels, depending on the prime requisite score. A elf wizard with 18 in Intelligence would then reach level...

    That's a mage. A specialist wizard has 2 spells. And any of those can have a signature spells (Spells & Magic) per level, which gives +2 casting level and 1 other casting for a particular spell. For example, an Invoker with Magic Missile as Signature Spell would be able to cast 3 Magic Missile...

    About what ? AD&D 2ed being balanced, or the Elf Bladesinger being the only class I've seen totally out of balance ? :) I guess the former. Well, I think it all boils down to what we call "balance". a) balance in classes: all versions of D&D never had a perfect balance between classes. Wizards...

    Wish cost you 5 years. In balanced campaigns, trust me, no wizard would cast it to gain some constitution points. In my campaign a wizard would have done it to be back at Con 16 (he lost a point, so he lost 10hp), but being at Ravenloft, Wishes don't really work you know. :D The other wizard...

    This is true. Some people say that it's too strong, and in a way it is, like Magic Missile. We thought for a while that Stoneskin is so fondamental for a mage, that it prevents you from choosing a Abjurer specialist. Then I tried building a NPC Abjurer, who helped during a lot of campaign years...

    Well, not totally right. Wizards had 1d4 up to 10th level, not 9th. ;) But yes, afterwards they get 1hp per level. Average hp for a wizard at 20th level is 35. (max hp is then 50, or 70 if with +2 constitution bonus) a fighter gets usually 87 at 20th level (1st hit dice is full with Complete...

    Thanks UK mate. :) ARfff... :D Not yet. :) If I have nothing to do I will. :p Sure they are, but usually mages are *never* hit by physical attacks. Stoneskin in 2ed gives total immunity to X attacks, wherether they hit or not, where X is 1d4 plus 1 for each 2 levels. So a 24th level caster...

    Wow. Hello UK, we've been in contact by email (I'm David Destefanis), Italy. Well, I've just finished reading the 18 pages thread.. Nice, albeit I want you to focus on finishing the books (I'll keep my gloves on too, just to paraphrase another poster here ;)), I have a question about immunities...
