    RBDMs, what's the most RB thing you've ever done?

    My players love and hate giving me backgrounds.. One player coming into my game new, played a merc, who had been raised by his father, which he always called captain. He didn't remember his mother. During the campaign, he encountered people from his past, most unscupulous, and he loved me...

    Looking for suggestions for good fantasy series to read

    Not sure if is could be concidered Epic, but the L.E. Mosdesitt Jr Recluce books are great in my opinion. They seem very odinary, but big things do happen in them. They can be read alone, or in series. He also write other series and genre, but these are the only I have read so far. (One...

    Targeting Held item with a power

    I saw that, but that dosen't mean you cant do it with something else. I think it is silly to tell someone it cant be done, because there is no apparent rule for it. IE. I scratch my nose. "Sorry, but it says here you can only make a called shot to a head, not a nose" Exageration mine.

    Targeting Held item with a power

    That sound reasonable. Yea, the missile is sonic, so it would ignore hardness, makign it way too easy to leave opponents weaponless. Thanks for the opinion.

    Targeting Held item with a power

    The psionic power Energy Missile has targets listed as "creatures or items". It works like a magic missile, always hitting. Can this be used to target items being held by other, like thier weapons?

    I think the attack on bob was a setup, so mohinder would trust Nikki.

    Bionic Woman- Season 1 [Paradise Lost] 10/2007

    I was a fan of the original, and the Six million Dollar man. I loved this. So many shows are trying to outsmart the viewer. This is fun just like an 80's show, only with better scenery. Pain killer Jane is terrible. This show is enjoyable.

    Player canceling late

    Thank you all for the advice. We have a game tomorrow, so we will probably discuss it more than between the rest of the group. Apparently half thinks I was being too hard.

    Player canceling late

    That could very well be the problem. I have made a lot of allowances for him already. Is the answer to keep letting it go, even though it make my job harder and isn't fair to the rest. The rest of the group dosen't really know how much it can ruin my day, when I have something cool set up, and...

    Player canceling late

    Can I get some opinions from all of you. I have a player who has been consistantly a problem with call outs. Since he started playing he would get into runs where he would show up at every game, and then would hit runs where he would not show up for more than half of the games. He is also a...

    Robert Jordan is gone

    To add my 2 cents. I have heard a lot of people bash Robert Jordan, and complain about some of the books, and I have to admit that at times I could get frustrated at the books but it comes down to this. He envisioned this great world, than many of us as role-players have done. He didn't keep...

    D&D 4E 4e death of creative spell casting?

    This has been my thought from the beginning. They are taking away anything that seems like it could cause problem simulating it by a program.

    Why are some NPCs so amazingly irritating? (e.g. Khelben Blackstaff)

    I really like Khelben. My only exposure to him is the Song and Silence series (With danilo) and I think Elaine Cunningham is a great writer. I never felt like Khelben was a bully. Only that he had lots of secret because of the harpers, and basically was stuck knowing more than anyone should...

    Stats on Greatspear

    I am glad the game designers design for the rest of us and not just you then, as I would not have much fun with this so called "reality" in my game" ] Tell the makers of these worlds. I know on CS Lewis World of Erna, the spear would go about as far as you believe it would. D&D uses whatever...
