Shouldn't say this... Sorry guys, have to gloat. Have a friend who's a manager at the local theatre and he called me about 2 hours ago (Tuesday @ 7:30 PM or so)... seems like the movies just came in today and he "has" to go through all 5 copies and watch them, making sure that everything is ok...

I even told them... As I was trying to decide what to do, I mentioned to them that I was trying to decide how much of a <not-nice guy> I wanted to be... They knew something was up... I think that I covered it up pretty ok, there was some great role-playing as we got back and the bad guy they...

Ok, started a new campaign off last Saturday, only had 3 of the 5 players... but that was planned. Party consists (currently) of: Male Human Cleric3/Fighter1 Male Human Monk4 Male Human Fighter2/Ranger3 (NPC) Female 1/2 Elf Sorcerer3/Fighter1 The monk is the main player here, as I allowed...

I only wish I only wish I could say that... as I was watching it with my wife, we were both hoping the ship would sink faster... alas, it droned on like the rest of the movie - too bad.

REALLY like this idea... <sarcasm> unfortunately for me, I don't have any powergamers in my group who could do this </sarcasm> :D

What's even worse... ... is when you start a campaign and all the characters look REALLY REALLY good on paper... but then the player ignores all the history and background you both worked hard on, throws the character concept out the window and plays a totally different kind of character...

Elway, Marino, Brady, Beg Ben = Mages (they had the magic...) Barry Sanders... not only Skill Focus (Escape Artist), he definately had a feat allowing him to change direction during a charge... On a more serious note... (or at least back to the thread), All the stats are needed by different...

okokokokokok Thanks for all your input. I'm working on some revisions to the rules anyways (I run a game pretty heavy on the house-rules anyways). With the following assumptions: 1) Using viatality/wound points 2) Lower-level game up to mid-level... I very rearely will run a game past level...

Ok, so... So for example, a longsword (normally crits on a 19-20) should only crit on a 20 and a Rapier would crit on a 19-20? Could see where this might help, but what about the differences inherent in how they balanced weapons... a longsword was better than a mace mostly because of the...

Ok all, this has probably been discussed here on the boards (I've probably lurked in a couple of the threads), but I have a question about vitality/wound points as presented in the Unearthed Arcana rulesets. I am starting off a new campaign in a week or two and I would really like to try out...

Now she games Been married 10 years this coming July... the first 2 years she HATED!!!!! me gaming, even so much as to try to sabotage the game (all my files, etc. - I didn't know at the time). Then, she was talking to one of her teachers in College (a religion professor at a religious school...

Elven Name Hope this doesn't get dinged by an admin... I was in 7th grade or so and had a chance to play with the 'older crowd'. Rolled up a really cool elven fighter mage (1st edition rules) and was looking in the Simarillion for a cool elven name. Found one I really liked, and since he...

Oh man... I just about spewed Dew on my monitor at work - that would have been hard to explain... and coming from a cop's son, he's doggone lucky that he was just butted by the rifle and not worse off.

Axis and Allies Ok, not Dnd (Axis and Allies, you know, the board game). We drew cards as to who was going to play who and 2 brothers (the best at the game) drew Germany and Japan. The other 3 of us looked at each other and figured we were toast. I drew Russia (my bad luck). Germany...

It all depends A couple of things... a nerd/geek constantly being ostrasized by their peers is NOT a fun or admirable situation... I only got by because I was an athletic, football (american)-playing, 6' 225lbs linebacker nerd/geek. ;) Also, with as much movement as the poster is...

Do it... on my own terms Maybe because I am a programmer and a computer geek, I've been using a self-created program for ages now (since 2E days). Initially, we played in the basement of our old house and the desktop computer was nearby... now I've got a laptop with a wireless LAN all set up...

Figured as much Figured that flaws could get really powerful really fast... the good thing is that only 1 of the players in the group (total of 5 players plus me as a DM) has ANY of the books and the one who does only has the 3.0 rulebooks... so I can very easily control what, when and how...

Looking at starting a new campaign in the spring/early summer and was wondering what the community here feels about using Flaws (I believe from Unearthed Arcana). Don't have the book, but there was an article in a Dragon magazine that had some flaws for Clerics and I thought that they "might"...

Passing is WAY over-rated In the playoffs, you NEED a strong D, ask the Pack or Indy after last year... and as other posts have mentioned, the Ravens and Bucs of the past won despite their offense. It's a very rare team that will win with a big offense and no D, especially against a tough D...
