    D&D 3E/3.5 3.0 third party books

    Awesome, yes, thank you Voadam for the suggestions. Those monster supplements will be great. And good call on Rokugan too, I'll keep an eye on those. I do have mythic races luckily, that's a fun book. One of my players was a rhonian gunner/marksman type in a Spelljammer game, very cool and...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.0 third party books

    Ah, thanks for going over those books, Alzrius. I agree TerraDave, there's some wild ups and downs with what was released for the edition. I remember reading through the Power Class series by Mongoose and being completely enthralled, but looking at them now is a pretty funny mess. And as...

    Brilliant, thank you. I'll be getting that with your link. I remember really liking the monstrous races from Bastards & Bloodlines.

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.0 third party books

    Hello :) There are some pretty good sales on at drivethrurpg at the moment, so I'd like your thoughts and opinions on some 3.0 content. What 3.0 books, that aren't by WotC, would you recommend? Sourcebooks, adventures, settings, tools, it's all good :) I'm pretty fond of If Thoughts Could...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Retro-cloning D&D 3.0

    I've been using 3.0 to run my players through the Castle of the Mad Archmage (the pathfinder version which I back port to 3.0 on the fly) and it's been a blast, though I have implemented a lot of house rules. I've halved the amount of bonus/negative hit points from a high Con score, this is...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.0 Enlarge and Expansion Question

    I think I'll just end up using the spells/powers as written, and if I do give reach (or other modifiers) then I'll do so at around the +80%-100% size increase. Maybe I'll let my players talk me into, or out of, it :p I'm in two minds about the 3.0-3.5 changes. Many folk say it's a good change...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.0 Enlarge and Expansion Question

    Some of the "vagueness" that 3.0 has (compared to 3.5, I came into D&D from 3.5) is what appeals to me with the 3.0 ruleset. I guess I appreciate the attitude of being a bit looser with rules/judging. I think I'll just run the powers and spells as is, with potentially giving larger weapon dice...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.0 Enlarge and Expansion Question

    Hey everyone :) I'm still super keen on my 3.0 buzz. The more I've been playing it, the more I've found myself preferring it to 3.5 (there's so many small things!). Sorry, anyway, I have a few psionic players who are thinking about learning the Expansion power. Understanding what the power...

    D&D 3E/3.5 The Red Avenger

    And the damned table doesn't show a BAB progression! Hahaha :p oops It is very odd, and until you pointed it it out I thought it to be pretty much the same class as the 3.5 version. It's interesting that they gave it the Deflect Attack ability, it's already so similar to the mounted combat...

    D&D 3E/3.5 The Red Avenger

    That's super interesting to hear, Celebrim. An idea like that is something I've been mulling over too. I like the idea of teamwork and spellcasters appreciating a warrior be present from a mechanical sense and not just by being a meat-shield/distraction. It hasn't been a problem in games yet...

    D&D 3E/3.5 The Red Avenger

    I agree with pretty much all you're saying, though maybe I tackle the issues in a different way. The introduction of PrCs within the DMG was good, and it should have stayed that way. PrCs are a DM tool, and a potential option for them to give to the players/table should the situation arrive. I...

    D&D 3E/3.5 The Red Avenger

    The Red Avenger is a monk-adjacent prestige class from Sword and Fist, and it's a hot mess. I just want to go over it's many odd points. I understand that this sourcebook was released pretty early into 3e and this isn't a dig at the author, design team, or editor. The book also received an...

    D&D 3E/3.5 I like psionics…

    I sometimes find myself thinking about the 3.0 soulknife, the prestige class, and how I would turn it into a 20 level base class. It feels more like a psionic assassin than the 3.5 class, what with the sneak attack and big constitution damage. When I get to brainstorming though, I always come...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Brainstorming: Sir Stinksalot

    A giant lizard mount would be a fun idea. The Underdark Knight alternate class feature from Complete Champion is also a perfect fit for a cave dweller. Something like the half-orc paladin's Aura of Awe substitution feature would also work very well. Your friends and allies won't want to be...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Is there an active 3.0 Community somewhere?

    Hi everyone! I've just made an account here after seeing this thread. I'd be very interested in being a part of a 3.0 community.
