Generating the Big, Slow, and STRONG This is an interesting problem . . . let me throw out a thought or two. I'm not familiar with Supers systems other than 4CTF, but I'm sure that most systems have SOME system that allows people to throw around buses without automatically hitting with them...

I dunno . . . it depends whether what part of Dragonball Z you're trying to emulate. There's a lot of wacky stuff there -- the Power Ups, the I Can Explode A Planet power, and so on. I think you'd have a *very* difficult time using any system except a customized one to mimic DBZ power levels...

Why not just take a feat that makes two-handed weapons do times 3 strength damage? :rolleyes:

Jester -- can you ask him where he got it? I'd love to buy a die like that . . .

Big Honkin' d20s I want an Epic d20, folks . . . sure, they sell those d20s that are between an inch and an inch and a half wide, but I want a BIG d20. Something you save for the campaign-concluding climactic combats. A bowling-ball sized d20 would be nice . . . I'd settle for one the size of...

Fanboy #2 I want to respond in more detail later, but let me begin by saying I agree with everything that Chiero said. It would be stunning if the very first edition of 4CTF managed to be balanced in all settings (specifically, 3E and d20 Modern and anything and everything else) AND could be...

Ranger hasn't addressed the point directly, so I'll come right out an ask him: 1) What do you think of the goofing with the Hero class on the part of Chiero and myself? You said somewhere that you thought the Hero class might be a little underpowered, but when we do the fighter-calculations, at...

In all honesty, except for a little inspiration here or there, probably the Epic-level handbook. What was I thinking?!! :) Also bought Skragg, City of the Orcs, and given the amount of ass that it sucks, I'm highly unlikely to ever use that, either. I'm tempted to buy the Buffy RPG ,actually...

Do bladesingers really get their Int bonus to AC? Cheaty elves! Where is the PrC from, again?

Thanks! I thought it was a pretty strong entry, though I guess it wasn't in the top 0.1% :). It's probably too "generic" in the sense that there's nothing about it that is extremely unique except for the point of view of the protagonists. At least, that's my guess. Still, you independent...

Purgatory Might as well post mine . . . lemme know if any of you want to give me large sums of money, eh? -------------------------- 1. CORE ETHOS Purgatory is a world in which the so-called “monstrous” humanoids have been hunted to near extinction, and fight a desperate struggle against...

I'm looking to add a little "horror" to my campaign . . . last session I came close, I think. Everyone here familiar with the Hairy Spider in Monsters of Faerun? You are, even if you don't know it . . . it's just a 1hp tarantula, at BEST a foot wide (with legs), with a lousy 1hp of damage per...

I have a couple of suggestions. "Don't worry, it doesn't matter how much XP we got this session. It was fun, and that's what is important!" "All these magic items are getting heavy. Do I really need them?"

Trolling for opinions . . . We've got spells to resist death magic, spells to resist damage, spells to resist energy damage . . . it seems to me that it would make sense to have a spell or to to resist (or completely prevent) paralysis (i.e., Hold Person, Hold Monster) or charm/mind-affecting...

You see, this just shows how unrealistic your campaign is, PC. Telling jokes like this, the dwarven jester should have been killed long, long, LONG ago! :)

Re: Re: Re: Re: well... Er . . . what the hell are you talking about? What changes "cut to the core of the game"? Up to this point, I've changed Commune (as far as availability) and Scry. Those are the only key changes I've made. If you think that those spells are at the "core of the game"...

It occurs to me that if the Hero doesn't get BAB, he wouldn't just be able to spend 48 Hero Points to get +16 to BAB . . . for the exact same reason. Hmmmmmm. Having to keep track of how many HD the Hero gets to add his Con bonus too seems "off" to me, I have to say, but I'm not sure what a...

That's true that you can work Undead into the system this way . . . hmm. So your proposed system is simply 2 Hero Points per level to get + Con bonus for that level? By the rules, you can't spend that many Hero Points, though -- for instance, a 16th level Hero can't spend 32 Hero Points...

Interesting, interesting. Not having Con apply to the Hero hit-dice seems a little iffy, though. Ranger said that in the initial version of the Hero, the Hero didn't get Hit Dice at all (or BAB, or saving throw advancement). It's possible that making the PCs *buy* hit dice would help solve the...

Loki, you know not of what you speak. I'm not playing D&D? You're a nut! Besides, I think you have the wrong impression about the relative power levels of the elves here. Let me spell out the levels of what I'm talking about . . . BEGINNING of Part I of my campaign: 1st level party must...
