    Review of Dungeon Crawler Miniatures

    Not sure I agree with the 3.75 out of 5.0 score. The minis are all high quality. You know what you are buying ahead of time, so it's not like you are going to get blind-sided with randomly packaged minis you don't want or need. I'd give them a score of 4.0 or 4.5, with a 5.0 score reserved for...

    Sharp Shooting vs. Imp Precise Shot FEATS??

    I hadn't even seen the Imp Toughness yet, as I just got my CW book last night. Funny thing is, In my campaign house rules, I have Toughness (character gets 4 hp instead of 3 hp) as a prerequisite for Improved Toughness (+1 hp/level) which was not in print anywhere until now (other than...

    Sharp Shooting vs. Imp Precise Shot FEATS??

    Looking thru the Complete Warrior book, something doesn't make alot of sense. There is a feat called Sharp Shooting that says that opponents who have cover against your ranged attack only get a +2 bonus to AC instead of +4. But... in the Players Handbook (3.5) Improved Precise Shot eliminates...

    Wizard Web spell too powerful?

    What is the consensus on the Wiz/Sor spell WEB? Is it too powerful? So far it seems to totally hose the bad guys everytime it's used. The DC20 Str check it near impossible to make, and the PC's all break out missile weapons, followerd by burning the monsters stuck deeper in the web by setting...

    Do you roll for your monsters stat?

    I only recently realized that the monster stats were figured so low. All 10's and 11's???? Man, my PC's are all 32 point-buy and min/maxed. No wonder the CR appropriate encounters seem to be so easy. All the fighters have 17 or 18 Str and 21+ AC's at 3rd level. They pretty much cannot miss a...

    Countering Improved Trip

    Couldn't a tripped opponent take the "Total Defense" action, and then stand up. Any character with Tumble should be allowed to tumble away to try to avoid the AoO.

    What lies underneath Thay?

    I remember that a long time ago (real time) there was supposed to be a huge trapped demon/monster underneath one of the cities in THAY. Other than that, check out "Dreams of the Red Wizards" "Spellbound" boxed set, or "Unapproachable East"

    How Do Your Villains Escape?

    Have your villain wear a mask. If the PC's attack the villain in his lair, he should have a small cell nearby with a kidnapped commoner dressed up like him, mask and all, but gagged under the mask so he can't talk. The fleeing bad guy runs past this small cell, opens in and casts Fear on the...

    If you like Dwarven Forge, check THIS out!

    WOW! I just downloaded that catalog. DAMN! That just made my day. Drool is absolutely correct. I already have about 1/4 of the stuff in that catalog (and a few more things that aren't in there) but there are a few things in there I haven't seen before. Know what my favorite thing about the...

    If you like Dwarven Forge, check THIS out!

    Well, I use some of the Mage Knight accessories like thier pillars, furniture, and the new traps set. As far as thier dungeons go, they look ok, but they are a little too big for typical miniatures (D&D, Reaper, Chainmail, etc.) I think the floor grid is like 1 1/2" squares. The dungeon walls...

    If you like Dwarven Forge, check THIS out!

    I have a number of Grendel pieces, which I absolutely LOVE! If anyone knows where (other than Ebay) to pick up some old Grendel resin pieces, please let me know. I'll buy them used also, if anyone wants to get rid of some.

    If you like Dwarven Forge, check THIS out!

    I emailed and asked about getting some of the basic floors, walls, and corners. They said they might be able to do some more. I send him a list of what I want, so we'll see if they will do it. ALSO.... I just got my first order from Mystic Blocks. They are GREAT! and for the price, man, you...
