    Which PHB race doesn't fit into YOUR fantasy campaign?

    Oh, and about Drow. I agree. They were very cool as a monster. They are pretty lame as a PC class. I don't like the idea of PCs being evil to the core, and IMO, Drow as a race are inherently and utterly evil, like Illithids or Red Dragons. In my game, you might encounter a nuetral or even good...

    Which PHB race doesn't fit into YOUR fantasy campaign?

    Heh, Gnomes are running away with the poll results! Doesn't surprise me, I too have never used them. Considering that we have Halflings and Dwarves, it is difficult to fit another race of short, fun loving, miner/craftsmen in. I do use Gnomes as a "monster" race, but I have determined that they...

    Maximum Magecraft: corndog's Wizardry Workshop, ep. 1

    That could work, I think you nailed on the head. Like you pointed out, it achieves the effect I was looking for, while at the same time resolving any issues with multiclass, so I'll change the feats to read: Precision Spell Targetting You are adept at delivering touch spells, ranged touch and...

    Maximum Magecraft: corndog's Wizardry Workshop, ep. 1

    1) Put the darts in! I remember when darts of teh hornets nest were the dream items for mages. I forgot about darts, yeah, they fit with a traditional mage concept. So we could use Dagger/Knife, Dart and Staff for the basic wizard selection using the Precision Spell Targetting feat. Sounds...

    Maximum Magecraft: corndog's Wizardry Workshop, ep. 1

    1) The PC must give up proficiency with ALL weapons, even ones whose proficiency she gains from another class. This is balanced, but I don't understand the logic of it: would a fighter5/wizard1 who took this feat suddenly forget how to use a sword? I wouldn't say she forgets how to use them...

    Is Polyhedron Lame or what??

    I've gotta say, I had never had any interest in Polyhedron till the new combo mag with Dungeon. Now I make a point to at least check them out at the game store, if not buy them. I think the new format is great. I also agree with Erik, give the Spelljammer stuff a chance to see the light of day...

    Maximum Magecraft: corndog's Wizardry Workshop, ep. 1

    Anyway, back to the topic: While considering ways to recapture the spirit of the traditional D&D wizard without unbalancing them or making them too weak, I keep stumbling over the idea of weapon selection. I want to encourage a more traditional selection, namely dagger/knife and staff. Here's...

    Thanks for the move, and the compliments. I'm hoping to make it an irregular "column" here on the boards, but we'll see how the general reaction goes. thanks again.

    No more LGG?

    Perhaps if people would buy the damn thing instead of constantly complaining that it isn't a real GH sourcebook, they might be more inclined to keep selling it, eh? Forgive me if I sound blunt, but when I hear "wow, maybe we'll get a real GH book now" it tells me simply "this guy/gal hasn't...

    Maximum Magecraft: corndog's Wizardry Workshop, ep. 1

    hey yall, Now that I've had a long while to toy with the rules and get a feel for a few of the options available to player characters, I've decided to start presenting some of my ideas on how to build a better spellcaster. A few words of introduction first, so yall know what to expect here...

    The next 'Big Thing'?

    I'm not opposed to race splat books per se, but... Elves, Dwarves, Drow? Been there, done that. Let's see Grugach. Let's see Orcs/Half-Orcs. Let's see a good treatment of Gnomes (the 2e gnome/halfling book really sucked), let's see a good Halfling book. Hell, with the renewed popularity of...

    Creature Catalog to be Published

    I'm betting the obvious answer here is simple. necromancer will publish an accessory titled Creature Catalog, by the CC crew, ok. I strongly doubt it will be cut and pasted from the CC site. My guess is that the bulk of the monsters in the product will be ones that were written by the CC crew...

    WOOOOOOO!!! Ratmen, Ratmen, ra ra ra! This looks awesome, I know what I'm doing payday. Thanks for the tip, I hadn't heard about this one, but I love the Ratmen, they're IMO the coolest thing to come out of CC1&2.

    Legendary Persons and Places in the World of Greyhawk

    That's one way of putting it, I guess, actual details may vary. What this means to us is, if you want details on other parts of Oerth, you can use fan based material (like the excellent series on the lands south of the Sea of Dust by TalMeta, on canonfire, www.canonfire.com). If, otoh, you feel...

    69 little communities of people wwho in all likelihood already visit ENWorld. These voting sites have always struck me as an exercise in futility, especially when the people in the running are out spamming for votes everywhere, encouraging people to vote over and over, and vote for more than one...
