    Traveller: the iconic science fiction roleplaying game

    Yes, lots of rolls, but how else are you going to end up selling F-16s to farmers on an airless world at a 300% mark up?

    D&D 3.x 3.0 third party books

    Yes, there is some fun stuff in AEG's Mercenaries. I have a couple of NPCs in my campaign who used prestige classes from that and one barbarian PC converted from 1E with one of the prestige classes. I use the Psychic's Handbook as a replacement for psionics in my recently started T20/D20...

    D&D 3.x 3rd Edition Revisited - Better play with the power of hindsight?

    Probably some space limitation. It's pretty easy to do without the book though. Just map out what the character would look like at 2nd level then split up what the character gets at 1st and 2nd level.

    D&D 3.x 3rd Edition Revisited - Better play with the power of hindsight?

    It wasn't in the 3.5 DMG. I played one character using those rules in 3.5.

    Time to read all the Conan stories...again.

    D&D 3.x Still playing 3e? Share your 3.0 and/or 3.5 house rules

    Agreed on toughness. I HR'd that to the 1ePF version, 3 hp then 1 each level, levels 4 and up. 3.x toughness is really only good during a one-shot adventure, IIRC.

    D&D 3.x Still playing 3e? Share your 3.0 and/or 3.5 house rules

    Once a class skill, always a class skill.

    D&D General Bought a brick of the 50th Anniversary minis :(

    BTW, does anybody know if they sell a red dragon that is based on the red box (Mentzer) red dragon? I know of the red dragon that is based on the art of the Holmes basic rules.

    D&D General Bought a brick of the 50th Anniversary minis :(

    Here are the chase figures from the brick I purchased from Wizkids. Some need help from a blow dryer.

    D&D General Bought a brick of the 50th Anniversary minis :(

    I work for a public utility, but I guess I could be a mole for some minis. :) Full disclosure, I did buy a brick from an eBay seller last fall and got the Uni and Sheila, but Shelia was missing an arm. I returned her to wizkids and they sent a replacement when they got their second batch of...

    D&D General Bought a brick of the 50th Anniversary minis :(

    A wee bit of thread resurrection. I purchased a brick of the 50th Anniversary right after Christmas. This was part of the second batch wizkids made after the first batch sold out this past fall. I don't mean to rub it in at all, but I opened the boosters one after another. I got all 10 chase...

    Do you guys pay attention to poison and potion onset times?

    Fun stuff. I use it in my 3.5 campaign I run now. Back in the early 80s when we discovered the table we of course had to try it out. One of my slightly disposable characters (an anti-paladin named Pax I had grown tired of playing) and another player's PC drank potions of something followed by...
