I think that it is what the weapon actually does...

Could you lend a bit of light on this, please? Does it means that there will be lots of OGL category and lots of non-OGL category? Just in case, I think that the d20 field has improved the standard in gaming, and that WotC, if restricted to non-OGL, will rightfully dominate this category (that...

My perspective as a fan. I would like to see WotC enter all category like all publisher. Because after Deities&Demigods (and the ELH) I'm not keen anymore on buying their product blindfolded. It means that I'll miss some of their great product which would have given me lots of ideas in favor...

yeah, you forgot mithril, masterwork, and other enchantment on armor or SHIELD, which will provide huge AC bonus uh, where does that come from?

You are assuming a straight typical wizard, while character who might choose to wear armor and use arcane spell are likely to be multiclassed, either cleric/wizard or fighter/wizard, so the feat isn't a cost nor is the weight.

Just to say that I see nothing wrong with fueling abilities with Cha (hey Jedi fuel their power with hit points!), just ensure a method on how you'll deal with cha boosting items and spell. Also, I do not see how the increased speed fit the swashbuckler concept.

compare it to bracer of armor instead of a spell, at +1 per 10% the bracer of armor becomes totaly ineffective cost-wise

If you want it to be on the same level as bracer of armor, because the arcane spell failure is roughly of 5% per point of armor, I would say make it either +1 for 5% or +2 for 10% the armor would still be interesting for various reason: -no need to take another feat to create wizard protective...

What about the mystic in the Dragonlance book?

As far as I know the longbow men were enlisted middle class citizen, not professional. Their advantage over frnech army was that they bought themselves the costly longbow which was very efficient from a strategic point of vue (fire high above your head so that it fall on the enemy). I thought...

I think one modification at a time would have been better to know how they affected things, and that the change in the voting process was all that was needed

I would say +4 would be fine, especialy in 3.5 First because characters with extreme alignement are the more likely to hold them, they won't see a difference between the sword and a lawful good one for exemple. Second, because in 3.5 it gives extra flexibility, if the group has a chaotic and a...

I though that the bow was one of the most primitive weapon and fairly used in all cultures, while the X-bow require some skill if you do not want to be hurt while using it (with funny effect like the arrow doing a loop) or if you do not want to break it.

The BESM d20 skill cost 6 skill point per rank as a cross class skill, and has a maximum rank as a cross-class skill of (level+3)/2 It doesn't seems overpowered, except if you are playing in a kick in the door game, plus the melee defence skill require a weapon in hand, which require a move...

it's too low IMO, a fixed price work only for extra abilities on a weapon which doesn't affect Bab or damage (like init bonus).

err, I don't know :D This is an extract from the anime d20 SRD, the reference document for BESM d20 I think that it goes along Bab, but I'm not sure, I'm waiting the book at my FLGS to delve into that a bit more seriously :p Though, in the d20 system forum, you can find link to PDF version...

Your call. I think that it's a bad precedent (what if a caster do it with fire/magma?), if the various school of magic are balanced in the first place:D Other Transmutation Spell seems to fall in 2 category the alter shape (move earth) the change nature (polymorph) while big thing like your...

if it is with spell up to 9th level, and given that its use is close to brew potion, I would suggest having a pre-requisite of level 10 or 12 also given that you do not eat all day, you could increase the price of the magic items and make them last 8 hours.

First, I would suggest that you do not use Mecha Crusade. Second in Mecha Compendium you can find Cities&Empire a steam punk setting with steam powered armor, though to fully use the book you need d20 Mecha, which won't be out till august (and that is if there is no additional delay). So now...

well you are not alone, the FR campaign setting writers forgot this rule too :D
