Just wanted to say thanks for posting. I've been planning my next campaign as a gunpowder world and now with 4E released, these are some interesting ideas in taking that on.

What I've seen and heard about 4E sounds great. I voted for 4E without question, I trust the team behind it and also I can't wait to try the online tools. I expect it to be a nice update to my favorite game.

Agree with those that say PHB, DMG, and MM are the core.

If a target has Mirror Image going, and a spellcaster with a touch spell (Inflict Moderate Wounds) makes the touch attack roll, but finds he has touched an illusory duplicate, is the touch spell now lost as the illusory duplicate disappates, or can the touch spell be tried again next round?

A character is nauseated due to finding himself in a Stinking Cloud and failing the Fort save. He is adjacent to a foe that threatens his square. Can the character withdraw, moving away from the threatened square without provoking an AoO? Withdraw is a full round action, and reviewing Nausea...

I hadn't heard this before either, but I immediately hated it, and to be honest I feel better now having gone through it. Kudos to the OP.

Homebrew My current game is a homebrew with customizations to races/classes but nothing too alien. As for standard gaming systems (combat, magic, skills, feats, etc.) I use 3.5 by the book. In my campaign there are angels and demons that have interbred with humans and elves, giving rise to new...

Dosadi Experiment Yes, I took the Frank Herbert book, The Dosadi Experiment, and made a campaign based on some key ideas from the story. Herbert is better known for Dune, which has probably inspired many games out there. Dosadi Experiment concerns itself with the planet Dosadi which has a...

My 2 capaign worlds I've been playing in my new gameworld for over a year, but first let me tell you about the previous campaign that lasted 4 years or so. Both campaigns I submitted ideas to the WOTC Campaign search that resulted in Eberron instead of my idea heh. My previous campaign was...

Cool, there's a thread called "Star Wars 2.0" which actually has some of the stuff I'm looking for: ideas for interpreting races, feats, etc here: http://www.alderac.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26005 The general "License to Improvise" forum has several threads on this topic. Thanks for the tip!

Hey if this isn't kosher, I apologize, we can kill the thread of course. I'll email a mod. Mainly, I am not opposed to buying WOTC's rules, but I am looking for a homebrew alternative that comes at the d20 system with its own interpretation of how Star Wars mechanics could work. If any such...

Hey I am looking for a set of Star Wars d20 rules that anyone's developed on their own, i.e. a homebrew version versus purchasing the WOTC books, something that presents someones own interpretation of the Star Wars universe. I just had a hunch that someone may have a boiled down set of rules for...

Hello, For those getting back from GenCon or who've been to gaming cons before, I would like to know more about RPG tournament play. I understand that some tourney games use a point system, or some might have players choose the best other player, and so on to determine individual "winners" or a...

Looking at the D20 SRD on Wotc's page, I don't see gunpowder weapons. I would like to run a gunpowder era game and would like to see what kind of personal weapon stats, cannon and related heavy weapon stats, gunpowder feats are out there for download/viewing for free. I'd also be interested in...

Hello, I just wanted to make sure I understand soemthing here about touch spells. In the player's handbook, in the Magic chapter under "Touch attack spells and holding the charge," it indicates that a spellcaster can keep trying touch attacks round after round if the spell is not discharged in...
