The words "becomes nonmagical" mean that the item is a valid target for spells or effects that affect nonmagical items, to me. However, what the DM says, goes.

I liked the effects of some skill tricks, but disliked the implementation. So, I just converted them to normal skill uses, and so far so good.

I'd also allow that variant -I might even allow 2 domains-.

It's the Mobile Spellcasting feat.

Well, if you were all covered in yellow, a GL ring couldn't -normally- affect you directly; but that's why GLs use imagination a lot. However, I agree 100% with Glyfair when talking about comic book logic (which is why my GF has a really hard time playing M&M).

Just to add something: the thing trapped inside the power battery is basically fear manifested, and GL must face and defeat their fears in order to affect yellow things. So, only the most experienced GLs can do that. Incidentally, that's why Hal Jordan had gray hair.

Actually, I don't prepare sessions or adventures anymore. Instead, I just prepare encounters relative to the relevant plots and subplots and that's it. Each encounter is designed with all the relevant info (from statblocks, spell lists, general tactics, background, resolution, misc information...

Throw something at him and tell him that he isn't supposed to try to avoid the hit. :D Now, seriously, that change would have 2 effects: 1) Limit Sneak Attack to melee only, since Dex shouldn't be added to AC, you can't get your Dex bonus denied. 2) Light armored PCs/NPCs would get hit way...

Add another vote to the "only need the core book" camp. However, Ultimate Power presents powers in a different way and -at least, in my case- helped me greatly to understand how to build powers for characters/NPCs.

Well, there's Rage feats, a 3rd party product that deals with that precisely. Now, if someone would create some feats to use with Smite evil for the paladin...

I use the "Death and Dying" variant rule from Unearthed Arcana. You can find it HERE

In my last campaign, 2 of the PCs went from 1 to 17 each before it ended. Too bad it ended in a bad way (one had to move out of the city, and the rest of the group just dissappeared eventually). Hopefully, my new campaign can last even longer.

I'm gaming with just one group, that plays different things. Right now, I'm running M&M and D&D, and playing Demon: The Fallen. The rest are also playing Exalted.

That would be pretty darn cool, actually. Hopefully we'll get the Spell Creation Cookbook at least.

That -and both of you, of course- rocks!

Just wondering if we can expect an updated/expanded version or just leave it as it is (and it's still quite useful)

It's a nice product as it is, but that would be indeed awesome.

In Aerial Adventure Guide, there's a designated captain that chooses the ship's action, and half the minimum crew size of a ship must tend to it just to keep it moving, while the rest may do something else (fight, operate ship's weapons, heal someone, sing a song...). When the captain chooses to...

Yup, I got it from RPGNow a while ago. The chapter on ship combat is actually pretty short but simple and definitely does not get bogged down on little details (as opposed to the Vehicle rules that appeared in Dragon Magazine #294). It does mention what the crew members might be able todo while...

That's exactly the same thing I did with my new gaming group, and so far has given me great results. The first adventure was completely vanilla and designed for the iconic party (since I didn't know what the players would play) and after that I just kept taking notes about what each one of them...
