    More gnomes?

    I just started a campaign as a forest gnome druid. So far it's been a lot of fun. I'm a little 2' 3" gnome with a nice wolf companion. We did alter the forest gnome to keep it more in line with a +0 ECL. Instead of automatically having elf, sylvan, and speak with animals as free languages as...

    "Out of the Frying Pan" - Book II: Catching the Spark (Part Two) - {complete}

    Yes, awesome update as usual. I'm really looking forward to the next one. madriel, I think that the bag is a Bag of Tricks from the DMG, it fits the description, the animals may have been changed though.

    "Out of the Frying Pan" - Book II: Catching the Spark (Part Two) - {complete}

    Great story hour, I'm glad I finally had the time to catch up. Didn't Boerth swear not to tell anyone about the Pit of Bones, only to tell the whole group about it? Forgot to add: I find it interesting that the Dragon/whateveritmaybe killed the guard's father in the same way that Chance was...

    Sneak Attack Question

    I'm playing a rogue at the moment and have found that sneak attack doensn't really come up much at the moment. First the target has to be vulnerable to sneak attack, then I have to get the guy either flanked or flatfooted, and then I actually have to hit him. I also have to deal with my...

    Ranged Sneak Attacks

    Here's the rule they give in Song and Silence for sniping like you describe. Page 37: So, it's possible to do what you did, but you can only get one attack per round and the -20 makes it pretty hard to do.

    NBoClasses is Back!!!

    Looks great. I really like the spell thief class, it's an interesting concept.

    [OT, sorry] I've got a big problem with Planescape: Torment

    You might try deleting the cache folder in the game directory. Sometimes files in there get messed up and it needs to be replaced. The game will just make a new cache the next time you load a saved file. It is an awesome game, hope you get to play it.

    WoT-- Book 10 has a title.

    It'll probably be out around November. That's been the pattern for the last couple of books at least. We find out the title around spring, and then the book finally comes out in the fall.

    "Out of the Frying Pan" - Book I: Gathering Wood (reprise)

    Great story so far nemmerle, I look forward to reading book 2. One question though, why does Jana owe Markle a favor again? I can't seem to remember at all.

    Book recommendations, give 'em to me!

    I second the Harry Turtledove vote. I've read Into the Darkness and Darkness Descending the third book in that series is Through the Darkness i think. They're great books, sort of retelling World War II in a fantasy setting, it's kind of hard to explain really. Anything by James Clavell is...

    *bump* Great story so far, I can't wait to read the next installment.

    Shipboard combat - player-centric boarding actions

    I've never read Seas of Blood, but I think that sounds like a pretty cool way to do sea battles. Maybe a good way to move the moshes randomly is to role a d8 just like for grenade like weapons and move it in whichever direction comes up. That could represent the chaos of the battle on deck...
