I guess what I was really looking for was a set of tiles that I could use to build a more traditional dungeon. Something with corridors and "regular" rooms. Probably something similar to the Magnetic Adventure Tiles, but as a PDF. Thanks for the info, I look forward to seeing the future...

So, I wasn't sure exactly where to post this. I'm looking for a good quality grayscale map product. Something with the utility of the Battlemasters: Dungeons or the Dollar Dungeon$, but with the quality of the new E-Adventure Tiles. Is SkeletonKey Games planning on putting out more of these...

old treasure section the wotc SRD page still has the wrong link to the treasure section. the correct 3.5 version is at: http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/v35/Treasure.rtf -DLurking

nevermind, bad math

Perhaps with a weapon, but you're supposed to be using that to parry the melee you're in. As for a shield ... that's what the Shield Bonus to your AC is supposed to simulate. At least imho. -dlurking

Re: Dragon #309 3.5 notes This is not quite true. Dragon issue 308 contained info on the new Ranger. It seemed to indicate that Wild Empathy was a class ability not a skill and would be replacing the old Animal Empathy skill. -dLurking

You can get it just as fast if you take Bar2/Rog3 it hurts your BAB by one, but gives Evasion and sneak attacks. -dlurking

nope. now, if the stone golem wanted to run by the little gnome and not get hit by the gnome, he'd have to slow down to parry some blows, otherwise the little gnome is going to hit him. there's that AoO. it doesn't matter that the 5000 lb stone golem doesn't care if the little gnome does...

StarWars and Spycraft probably removed AoO because melee combat is much rarer in those settings. When WotC added stuff for lightsabers, they re-added AoO because it made melee combat more likely. Basically, if your setting relies on ranged combat, AoO aren't as important. If you setting...

nope! there is no such thing as a Defense Bonus in DnD 3e. it isn't mentioned in the PHB, or the DMG, if it's mentioned in the SRD, i haven't found it. Defense Bonuses are found in WoT and SWD20. Both of them work by subtracting 2 from your defence bonus for each class you have beyond your...

multi-classed defense bonus This should probably work like the defense bonuses in the Star Wars d20 or the Wheel of Time game. When you multi-class, you subtract 2 from your defense for each class you have. That way you keep the defense bonus in line with the level progression within the...

release date update i emailed the folks at AEG about when i could find the book outside of gencon. here's the response i got:

The primary issue for me hasn't so much been that there were delays, but that AEG had done an absolutely awful job at informing the consumer of the delays. The website still says the current release date is July. And, until recently, included references to three suppliments all with release...
