    Heroic tagline wanted

    Borrowing from George R.R. Martin: Mine is the Fury or Unbent. Unbowed. Unbroken.

    Has anybody tried gaming outdoors?

    I haven't really played under the sky, but found something even better. A couple of years ago I went deer hunting with a couple of guys I game with. We took all our D&D stuff with us, so after hunting, we set up a large table inside my tent (it's pretty big) and played for hours using lanterns...

    Ultimate RPG room

    Most of my suggestions have already been posted, but here's a couple more: - Big white board w/ erasable markers behind the DM and - I'd probably spend some coin on decent lighting: at a minimum I'd have dimmer switches, but ideally I'd have programmable settings for different purposes. Can't...

    What is your martial weapon of choice?

    Re: the Heavy Flail, could someone remind me what the advantages are with this weapon when it comes to tripping and disarming. Does the flail get +'s on the die roll or something? Quick survey: Is a Heavy Flail the kind of weapon a Paladin would use?

    Disarm Questions

    This question has probably been discussed before but the search function is not working. Example: Fighter with 3 attacks per round Attack #1: attempts to disarm opponent and fails Attack #2: attempts to disarm opponent and succeeds Attack #3: melee attack Without improved disarm, attack #1...

    Quick draw?

    IIRC, if your BAB is +1 or higher, you can draw your weapon as a free action as part of your movement. Is this accurate? What if your 10th level fighter is unarmed and wants to use the full attack action. Can he draw a weapon and get all his attacks, or is drawing the weapon a MEA?

    Is Entangle too good?

    My opinion is that not all X level spells across various classes need to be exactly equal, just that they need to be in the ballpark. So while I agree that Entangle is a powerful 1st level spell for Druids, it's not completely out of line. I've experienced some of the same feedback in regards...

    Divine vs. Arcane Magic Usage

    Don't have my books with me. What are the basic rules for magic usage? 1) Can a divine caster never cast an arcane spell, even if it is on a scroll? (and vice versa?) 2) Can a fighter pick up a wand of CLW and use it? Can a wizard? Or can only divine spellcasters use the wand? 3) Do divine...

    Good halfling wizard mini?

    Lately I've been searching for specific minis and came across a Web site you might check out. Try gamingminiatures.com. This site lets you search Reaper miniatures by class/race (the link is down near the bottom of the home page). Then you can click on the "halflings" link.Though most of the...

    Paladin Mounts - Info Requested

    I've never played a Paladin before, so I wanted to make sure I understood the whole mount thing. 1) IIRC, DoF seems to indicate that having mounts other than a standard war horse is okay (DM's decision I suppose). Are there any interesting character/mount combos you've seen? I was thinking of a...

    Reach Spell. +Two Spell Lvls??

    My cleric just advanced to 6th level, so I had to select a feat. My top choices were Reach, Extra Turning, and Craft Magic Arms and Armor. I ended up going with Extra Turning, but Reach did seem to have a lot of unique applications that could really make a difference in a tight spot. I'll...

    Good Cleric Feats?

    I'm curious to know what feats have been the most useful for cleric characters? The cleric I'm playing is approaching 6th level. He's solid in combat because of good strength and dex scores. Currently he has weapon focus and proficiency, dodge, and expertise...all combat related feats, so I...

    Ranger Favored Enemy

    Don't have my books with me, though I don't know if they answer the question very well anyway. When a Ranger selects a favored enemy, does he pick a "group" like Abberation? or does he pick a single, particular Abberation?

    [OT] Any opinions Terry Goodkind's SWORD of TRUTH series??

    Well, obviously there's a lot of differing opinions on Goodkind's books, so I don't know how much this helps, but I would recommend NOT starting the series. I read the first book, and while it had a few good moments, it was not a very enjoyable read, so I determined not to continue the series...
