My BASIC skills are decrepit, but wouldn't that assign a truth value to c, instead of the result of malloc(p)? Anyway, assignment and comparison are very different concepts; why use the same syntax for both?

Are these really uncontested facts?

Note that in 3.5, the Combat Expertise penalty (and bonus) lasts until your next action, but Power Attack lasts until your next turn.

You're welcome. ;) But that still does not answer my question.

Irrelevant again The right person being the ... mother? Why not insult the person in question, instead of unrelated relatives?

Sorry about being completely irrelevant, but I've wondered about this for ages: When someone annoys you, why do you insult their mother?

Yes. Not completely, there's still the countertrip risk.

Accepted by whom?

Can someone please tell me where the "X, Y, Z, oh my" idiom comes from?

But it's only worth it if you hit on 12+, or need a natural 20, right? Or is my math off?

Keep one hand on your weapon, grapple with the other. The point is, if you want to stop the rogue getting past the front lines, you can do it with a readied action, regardless of Tumble.

Heard of Grapple and Trip?

I do something similar: Instead of removing the movement AoO(s), if you make your Tumble check, you get to add your Tumble ranks (not Tumble bonus) as a Dodge bonus to your AC (against the AoO(s) only). Works nicely.

At short range, a flurry of shuriken would in many circumstances do more damage than a single crossbow bolt or sling bullet. For non-monks, it's useless, but so are all the other monk weapons. -- Jon

Yes, you do. Page 113: "A character gets no Strength bonus on damage rolls with a projectile weapon unless it's a specially built composite shortbow, specially built composite longbow, or sling." -- Jon
