    After Battlefield Adventures...what other "genre" books?

    It seems Dungeon Adventures will be one of the next books in that line.

    Flumphs?

    As a GM who converted to D&D when the 3rd Edition was released in 2000, some of the more obscure monsters of D&D's past are totally unknown to me. Recently I got my copy of Dungeon 118 which contains the "Box of Flumph" adventure and the official conversion of "D&D's lovable loser". Can...

    Starting a campaign for two players

    At what level did the characters start? Did you use point buy at character creation? Did you add new options to the action point rules? How hard were the battles? Anything to be especially careful about in the first module when run for a party of two? BTW everybody, good ideas and suggestions...

    Starting a campaign for two players

    Hmm, sounds a bit on the high side for me. My last campaign (which had 5 players) used a 28 point buy. But I never tried gestalt chars. If possible I'd like to avoid additional party members even if they're NPCs. Perhaps adding some more healing potions to the treasure could be an option. One...

    Starting a campaign for two players

    I'm going to start a D&D 3.5 campaign for an extremely small group of just two people. This seems like a perfect opportunity to include some rule changes out of Unearthed Arcana. My goal: Running the Dungeon adventure path series "The Shackled City" without needing to heavily modify each...

    There was a rust monster on Futurama

    In the episode where all the robots revolt, Fry is looking on a map that looks amazingly like a D&D treasure map including map points called Cloakwood & Dragons be here. The episode where Prof. Farnsworth is taken to the Near-Death-Star: At the beginning of the episode there is a short film...

    Grappling: Multiple Attacks / How many BABs does a character have?

    Since when is there such a thing as multiple BABs per character? I always had the impression that a character has only one BAB that does grant additional attacks at reduced BAB. After all it is the Base Attack Bonus. From the SRD: Full Attack If you get more than one attack per round because...

    Grappling: Multiple Attacks / How many BABs does a character have?

    Hmm... two replies, two different answers. WotC should really consider to explain grappling in their "Rules of the game" series.

    Grappling: Multiple Attacks / How many BABs does a character have?

    A question regarding grappling and iterative attacks: When a character/creature has multiple attacks and therefore can attempt multiple grapple checks per round, are the grapple checks following the first one modified like normal iterative attacks? Example: Medium Creature with BAB 12/7/2 and...

    Poorly thought out names in Fantasy/Sci-fi

    And the worst thing is that "Fett" means "fat" in German. When I was a child and saw the movies for the first time I thought "Why is he called fat? He isn't that massive." Plus Bobba is a stupid first name.

    Precision damage // Grappled when stunned

    On the other hand, not allowing the extra damage in a Whirlwind Attack would lead to the following rather strange situation where Whirlwind Attack would be nearly useless compared to a normal full attack: [I'm disregarding all ability and equipment boni since they won't make any difference to...

    Precision damage // Grappled when stunned

    Two rules question situations came up in our last session: 1. Precision damage: One player has a fighter/duelist [the DMG version] whose character gets the +1d6 extra damage class feature. Like the extra damage from a flaming sword this 1d6 won't get multiplied when scoring a critical hit...

    What is the dumbest way you've seen a paladin lose his paladinhood?

    My story is of a paladin nearly losing his paladinhood in a game I dm'ed, but the player managed to get his character killed shortly after his misbehaviour. [Small spoilers for the beginning of the Dungeon adventure The Jackals Redemption!] First the in-game situation: The characters had...

    Bulette

    Yes. Correct translation of Bulette. "Oh no, watch out. That huge pile of hamburger meat is coming right for you!" Entropy *uses Swallow whole (Ex) on the Bulette*

    Has anyone scanned & pdf'd the Tiles/Maps in the back of the 3.5 DMG?

    Has anybody asked WotC if they could put those pages online in a PDF? Maybe they'll do it. Entropy
