    Your Favorite War Movies...

    So, Stalingrad had something romantic??? Some fine movies already mentioned. - Die Brücke/ The Bridge (Some youth are left to guard a valueless bridge and us-soldiers come by. Very depressing). - Sorbibor (more a KZ-movie, but the big escape was mentioned. I wept, when the escape startet and...

    Sohei - to weak?

    OK, have to check the void-feats again (although I thought that Sohei weren't part of Rokugan :D )

    But does not the power increase for everybody with these feats, or are they better for sohei?

    Sohei - to weak?

    Today I took my Oriental Adventures for a read and skimmed through the pages, and as allways I stop at the Sohei and think, nice class, a few spells later on, like Paladin or Ranger, a weaker form of Rage with his ki-fury and a few protection abilities. 2 good saves, too. All Armor (no Shield)...

    Why are Dwarves Scottish?

    "Der" Ring der "Nibelungen", please :) With Tolkien Elves, I allways found them more irish than welsh, reminding me more of the Tuatha de Dannan than anything else. About Welsh: What a beautiful accent (but cymraig is even more beautiful) About Dwarves: as a non-native english-speaker, I look...

    Dungeons & Dragons: 2. Premiering on the Sci Fi Channel on October 8th.

    Mhm, sounds a bit like "The Gamers" with more budget and less humor (at least, it sounds as if some ideas are similar)

    What shows got canceled before they had a chance....

    Pitty, I would have gone for Farscape, which would have had more in it than 4.2 seasons. I had all but forgotton about Crusade (I loved it, but especially since the episode where they watched pron ... great!) What about Forever Knight (I think it was called)

    Thoughts on Bards?

    get The Enchiridion of Mystic Music and convince your gm to allow it. Still the best suplement on Bard (in my opinion, that is).

    Clowns everone hates them so why do they exist?

    funny thing, and I allways thought it was only pratchett and me. But strange enough, lots of children (my included) like both (mimes and clowns). Strange thing with mimes for me (as a non-native-speaker), was, that I knew the word MIME-type (important for emails) before I knew the "artist" and...

    SRD Wiki?

    Rather good so far. Although not completely linked (e.g. the skill at the classes). But thats probably just me (and the reason why I think, it is a lot of work and others don't. I even would have linked the ability score abbreviations and the "General" descriptor of the feats, i.e. I would not...

    SRD Wiki?

    If bandwidth is the problem, I can host it.

    SRD Wiki?

    Why nobody does ist? its a heck of work!!!! to do it right, you have to plan out the interconnectivity of the entries, each spell its own entry (with making links to spell-type, classes, components etc.), each weapon its own entry each feat, skill ... you get the idea. Otherwise, you can just...

    Most common cause of PC deaths

    NPC levels, what's an EXP ??

    Looks OK, although I somehow think, that a caravan guard should make it to higher levels in less time. But to average the whole process, it looks great.

    ...but what about the books?

    Probably the Book with the most influence on my role-playing was the Silmarillion (which I read after the hobbit and before LotR (constantly wondering, where the heck the shire was - up to the last part of the book)). All in all, I would guess the bible had the greatest influence on my life...

    Campaign starting a 0-level?

    Did something like this in 2nd and 3rd Edition. Each time over several sessions. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it did not. One of the fan-based Midnight supplements had rules for that. But now, I would go with the excelent "Buy the Numbers" to start a character as Commoner and buy the...

    Exo-skeleton - It's here

    The name is rather suspicious, especially with the suits ability to move on itself. But still: I think I have to get one for me (just thinking about doing a bit of jogging next to some of those daily joggers ...)
