    Book of Exalted Deed : Mature ?

    As far as I'm concerned, 95% of the BoVD wasn't mature. Of the remaining 5%, 4% (overall) was the graphic artwork, and only 1% of the overall book even approached "mature". Compared to a game where you effectively kill the easter bunny and steal all of his easter eggs, the BoVD was tame at...

    Poisons for GOOD!

    So your jungle tribesman (who happens to be a paladin) cannot use poison on his blowgun darts when he hunts monkeys, like the rest of his tribe? If he can, why not to defend his tribe, or the shrine to his deity? If those, then why not for self defense, or anyplace else where he could kill...

    What's NOT being fixed in 3.5?

    Re: personal grip Boccob's Blessed Book. If you buy it, you save money writing any spell 2nd level or over. If you make it yourself, you could put any spell in it and save. -Fletch!

    Are D&D rulebooks stuck in the 70's?

    If anything, I find that the skills actually inhibit roleplaying. As for combat, it really now is a minatures system, which implies a focus on combat. How important are minis for an audience with the king ... unless there will be an assassination attempt? Finally, while there is a Sultans of...

    Rakshasa Question

    I'm pretty sure that you just need to hit the Rakshasa's armor class with the blessed crossbow bolt. The damage reduction applies for normal attacks, but this is a vulnerability of the creature that has the DR. The vulnerability takes precedence, otherwise it would be irrelevant. -Fletch!

    Disarm with reach weapon - AoO?

    I agree with this. It is supported by the Combat chapter: You have to be in a threatened area in order to provoke an AoO. Suggesting that a disarm with a reach weapon will generate a possible AoO against the weapon is like saying that a creature with reach and a natural claw attack will...

    Planeshift: The 'Other' Save or Die Spell

    For a bit of fun, when a target is planeshifted unwillingly, roll randomly to determine the plane they are sent to. Could turn out to be an interesting quest to retrieve the character. We just had this as a result of a prismatic spray (I love that spell - but only as a DM). As far as the...

    Sage Advice on Energy Burst Bows

    Not sure if this will turn out to be a troll, but what about 'no magical ammunition'? The bow imparts all of its goodness on the arrow, and you never have to worry about double stacking with bow/arrow enhancements, or magic quivers that cast GMW on every arrow drawn, or any of the other...

    Sage Advice on Energy Burst Bows

    This bit is from a post of the recent Sage Advice. The whole article can be seen here: http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/news/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=2008&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0 Here is the Q/A that I'm calling to question: However, I'd like to point out this...

    Stargate Campaign: Spycraft or D20 Modern?

    Actually, I like the grittier feel of VP/WP, and that is why I'm going to the effort of converting the rest of the game to fit. In addition, I picked up and the Wheel of Time hardcover, because I'm leaning strongly toward that magic system. If not WoT-style channeling, then I'm going to...

    Stargate Campaign: Spycraft or D20 Modern?

    I did not make a blanket statement about 3rd party stuff being crap. But you never can tell how something is going to fit into your game until you try it, and sometimes that is too late. Action dice, VP/WP and no crits are major changes. They are not additions - rather, they replace something...

    Stargate Campaign: Spycraft or D20 Modern?

    Well, I play D&D twice a week, maybe 14 to 18+ hours total. These are two different groups, and the thing that glues them together is WotC products. Pretty much anything WotC is allowed (with exceptions, like a few prestige classes and feats, and house ruled spells). However, any 3rd party...

    Stargate Campaign: Spycraft or D20 Modern?

    I was really hoping that Mongoose's 'big announcement' was going to be SG-1, and was fairly disappointed when it was B5. I was a huge B5 fan, but it is largely out of circulation. Even Crusade was cancelled, and there hasn't been a new movie in years. SG-1, OTOH, is still in its original run...

    S&S Creature Collection III: who submitted proposals?

    I sent in 26 plus a template, and my wife sent in 8, most were 250-350 words. My question is, has anyone gotten confirmation that your submission was received? -Fletch!
