    Awarding XP for non-game actions

    I used to subtract points for disruptive behavior, since we were a very disruptive bunch, to keep on track. Also, i used to quiz players on past events (since they were bad at remembering stuff) and then if they got it right they would get xp extra to, though that is kind of game related. jake

    What do you choose to play in a party that has all the basics covered?

    Paladin/Sorcerer obviously :) then choose the prestige class of Hospitaler. Man, that sounds like a good idea... i think i might try that! hehe. Barbarian/Bard looks interesting, as well as a Rogue/Psion who goes the route of the diplomat/psychologist. With the psychoanalysis type feats, that...

    I'm annoyed at archers.

    For the post above comparing the melee with ranged fighters, you can't keen a bow, because only slashing weapons may be keened. Also, i dont really see the GMW coming into play with Buddha's party since he hasnt mentioned the presnece of any magic users in his party. (not to say that GMW isnt...

    how do i get "the fire" back?

    A While ago i went through the same thing, and what got me backl in the mood to game turned out to be watching Conan the Barbarian. It reminded me of the reasons i played, hacking and slashing, quests, chopping off heads, treasure, spoils of war, To crush your enemies, see them driven before...

    I'm annoyed at archers.

    whatever happened to protection from arrows? Unless i missed something, that looks pretty effective, since only the arrow's enchantment tis taken into account, and (i am not sure on this one, sorry) that each arrow is sbject to the damage resistance? The wording in the spell is a little...

    would this be evil?

    i know it sounds stupid but.... "When your subdual damage exceeds your current hit points, you fall to the floor unconcscious... Each full minute you are unconscious, you have a 10% chance to wake up and be staggered untill your hitpoints exceed your subdual damage again. Nothing bad happens to...

    Wizzie/Sorc vs Bladesinger vs Spellsword @ level 20. Help please!

    I think a lot of epic level monsters have insight and luck bonuses, though many have natural bonuses. So brilliant might not be terrible, but i would go with a +4 sword over a brilliant because i am not completely sure but most creatures this high in level will have damage reduction which i am...

    [OT] Atkin's Diet

    ^^ I agree with alsih2o. It is really easy to lose weight if you just run for 30 minutes a day (its how long you run when you start not how fast) 6 days a week and drink only water or juices (as opposed to sodapops). After 3 weeks you will see visible results assuming you dont like, eat a bus or...

    [OT] Warcraft III

    I don't think war3 has as much strategic depth as sc/bw does. The economy is much much simpler in war3, and the game isn't completely balanced. It is still really fun, but i don't beleive that any of those players think its more complex than war3. Also, i think that most mid to highlevel players...

    [OT] Warcraft III

    Hey forsaken, who were you in BW? just wondering. I like war3 because i am slightly better at it than war3. I would reccomend buying it, but i can see it going out of style if they patch it again so terribly. jake

    Could a party of Clerics survive?

    Could you imagine the party once they all got harm???? Yeah i think that a group of clerics would also be the single classes party to survive the longest. I mean there really isnt much they couldn't handle. jake

    POLL: Biblical-era Middle-East setting

    Are there any campaigns based during the crusades? There was a dragon that had characters from such a campaign and it was really cool. Anyone have any info on such a thing? It was like Crusades meets old fairy tales. jake

    Challenging my high-lvl group (NPCs and monsters; my players shouldn't read this!)

    What about a gargantuan undead that carries a shrine (read unhallowed) on its back. Maybe like an undead dragonturtle with a small temple as its shell, or an atlas like zombie that carries a large structure on its back. Perhaps a giant died and some unwitting cultists built a temple on top of it...

    What is the attraction of Dragonlance?

    I must say that i have read better fantasy in the about 6 years since i read them for the first time. I will also say at the time they were some of the best books i had read (when i was 12 heh), and definately the best TSR books i have read (Though salvatore's stuff was good i though (the...

    Gratis the healing Mage?

    Am i the only one who hears "I want my wizard to cast Heal Spells!" and think munchkin? I dunno, i think that adding healing spells to wizards would be bad for a few reasons. Firstly, the spell would have to really suck in comparison to Clerical healing spells. I mean once you get high enough to...
