    Cohort

    You do realize that, even without taking into account that you're a GOD, with one feat, Epic Leadership, and a Charisma of 30 (which is quite low considering that you're quite epic and a sorceror 14), that you could get a cohort level 38 ? I am not quite ready to get into a discussion on how...

    Specialist Wizards: variant

    It can be hard indeed to convey an idea with 1's and 0's. I am glad you understood my true meaning. I'm also a Nothinglander. We tend to be understanding and give the benefit of the doubt. We are used to the fact that messageboards can convey the wrong impression at times. :D Cool. It...

    Specialist Wizards: variant

    Woah there. I wasn't saying that YOU'RE being symptomatic, but pointing to the fact that your particular school combo was common, thus showing that there is indeed an imbalance in the whole concept of specialist wizards, THEREFORE pointing out that a "fix" might be needed, in order to make ALL...

    Improved Buckler Defense ?

    Mmmm... A two-weapon 11th fighter with the proper feats has 6 attacks per round, with potentially a +6 shield AC bonus, albeit his attacks are at a -3 to hit (IBD, TWF, ITWF, GTWF). A shield and sword 11th fighter has potentially a +7 shield AC bonus with no penalties at attacks, but only 3...

    Keep 'em coming. Good ideas.

    Specialist Wizards: variant

    Sure. You could do that. Like I said, all I did was throw ideas last night. I invite anyone to modify this list and repost it in this thread. Oh absolutely, but unlike the PHB, you are actually STRONGER than other wizards in your specialized school. The PHB gives you ONE more spell per level...

    Specialist Wizards: variant

    I have never once seen a specialist wizard IMC because loosing access to 2 schools has always felt like too hard on my players and me. SO... Here's a variant. When you specialize, instead of gaining an extra spell, you gain a certain benefit associated with your school: Abjuration: An abjurer...

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    I bought Dragon back in my 1st edition days because, frankly, that's all there was. The TSR rule books and Dragon. Now that WotC releases a LOT of material, I have more than enough material for my games. If I bought Dragon, I would probably use one or two items in my games from each, and after...

    Computer Program I'd Love

    That is a very impressive piece of software. I'll get it if I ever want to play online. Nice.

    Computer Program I'd Love

    To be honest, we're not working on that currently at all. The programmer might eventually get back to improve it, but not in the close future. The thing is, the feature you mentioned needs a whole rewriting of the code. If and when we get down to doing this, literally means a program that would...

    Computer Program I'd Love

    You have GOT to be kidding me. Besides a few points, you just described my Interactive Dungeon: http://www.geocities.com/trainz_ca/ID How much money did you say you want to invest in this ? I might be able to talk the programmer into implementing what you said... for the right price.

    Player powergaming: mea culpa

    Thanks bro. That was a tough call indeed. But in the end, I just NEEDED to insure my bases in the campaign I'm currently playing. The challenges (and ST DC's) will just go on getting tougher (and more lethal), and too often I was out of combat after only the 1st or 2nd round. The other players...

    Player powergaming: mea culpa

    Well, the feat Draconic Heritage must be taken at 1st level by a Sorceror, so I did Sorc 1, Pal 1, Pal 2, Sorc 2 to 8. I created him as a Pal2/Sor8 though, because it's a replacement for my previous 11th level Sorc that died recently. I decided that my new character won't get shafted with low...

    In-game concept of spell levels?

    Hey, don't bark at me, I don't make the rules. But face it: 16th level fighter/d00d has 20 arrows in his quiver. Attacks barn door. 6 seconds later, how many arrows remain in his quiver ? That's right: invariably 16. All the time. I don't care that it's so square and "illogical", but Hyp was...

    In-game concept of spell levels?

    Wow. For the first time ever, I disagree with you. Fascinating. Give a fighter a bow and a barn door 10 feet away. In six seconds, ask him to sink in as many arrows as he can. The first level dude will put one, the 16th level dude will put four. Almost invariably (a 1 always misses). Unless one...
