    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Reflex Saves and Conditions Question

    Hello, Continuing on with making house rules. To do this, I want to be clear about the RAW first, and then make adjustments as I go. I have a question about Reflex saves and various conditions. What modifiers/penalties exist for Reflex saves in these following conditions. I'm going to...

    Awfully Alarmed About Armour

    Can you give what you are thinking about in a chart? I'm having trouble understanding what AC heavy armors would have. Aluvial

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Charge Question

    I love the my Rules Compendium. Probably the best single 3.5 book out there... Thanks for the discussion. A lot of what I'm doing at this point is making slight adjustments to the RAW. I have another post on changes I'm making to being prone as well... Aluvial

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Charge Question

    Damn, just lost my post. Here's the short version.... Thanks for the clarifications. I will have a house rule that allows a creature to charge during their SA so long as they have not moved earlier in the round. Likewise, the creature can no longer move at the end of their charge. This...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Charge Question

    Hello again, Today's questions are about charging. I know that a Charge is Full-Round Action. It can also be used as a Standard action IF you are limited to just a Standard or Move action. My questions are, 1) Can you take a move action, in which you do not move, like store a weapon, then...

    Prone and two handed weapons question

    Great pics! I don't think prone really means more than not standing. Perhaps the -6 / -4 is fine.

    Prone and two handed weapons question

    I liked the discussion on the bow. To get back to my original thought, I think that I will have slashing and bludgeoning two-handed weapons be an additional penalty when prone. The extra complexity is not really an issue with my group, as I continue to strive for a simulation type of game...

    Prone and two handed weapons question

    I have a question about the prone condition. You get a negative 4 on attacks and you can't use a short or long bow. Does something about being prone affect using two-handed weapons? Should it? Aluvial

    D&D 3.5 Reprints in September?

    Dungeon! Awesome. I have this game in my closet and have made a point of playing once a year with my brothers on beach trips. Dragon magazine expanded the original rules with additional characters and we made TONS of expansion monster, traps, and treasure cards. We even had a few...

    Character Generation - Stat Draft Method

    This is my new character generation system that I just employed. I have 7 characters rolled so far. 5 have +12 ability modiers, 1 has a +11 and one has a +13. Essentially, they average out really, really nicely. The trick is the combo of rolling, applying racial mods, and then using point buy...

    Character Creation

    These are the rules for starting a new character in this campaign. We are using a hybrid of rules, both 3.5 and Pathfinder 3.75, as well as a large number of house rules that should aid in game play. Character Creation 1) Characters start with a 3 x 3 grid of possible stats. Across the top...

    Help my Kobolds spank my players

    Get your hands on a copy of Dragon Mountain boxed set. I ran my players through this and to this day, they are fearful of kobold tactics... I started another group with old players in Return to the Keep on the Borderlands... The kobold cave came up (Bree-Yark) and my players immediately...

    Character Generation - Stat Draft Method

    The grid method, and the tool to use it are great. I've never seen it, and I love it. Character Statgrid I just tried this method though. 1) Roll 3d6 in order. Then, you can rearrange your body stats, and your mental stats. So, STR, CON, DEX scores can be rearranged, and so can INT...

    Pathfinder 1E Plastickrack - Pathfinder Miniatures Edition

    I finally decided to open my case and ended up really liking the miniatures. Erik, your assessment is fair about the size. I believe the miniatures were scaled to match. The troll is a bit small for a large but I don't see that as an issue considering that I have trolls of all sizes from...

    Pathfinder 1E Plastickrack - Pathfinder Miniatures Edition

    I'm glad to hear that and again appreciate the response. I love miniatures, started my gaming career with Grenadier sets, and have collected since. I'm sold, and will open my case tomorrow and then drop in with my impressions. Thanks for being interested in the consumer Erik. I hope we are...

    Pathfinder 1E Plastickrack - Pathfinder Miniatures Edition

    Hello again, My dragon came today and it is a really awesome sculpt. It is not huge. It is merely a large. I will be adjusting the base of mine. I think now that I have the dragon and have heard the reports, I will be opening my boxes. I will not pretend to know what it takes to get the...

    Pathfinder 1E Plastickrack - Pathfinder Miniatures Edition

    This seems like a re-release and also seems pricey. The names seem like old miniatures, especially in the Lloth set. I do like the idea though. Now... where is for 40% off? Aluvial

    Pathfinder 1E Plastickrack - Pathfinder Miniatures Edition

    Hello community (hope this is in the right forum) Here is my review of the new Pathfinder Battles case.... in a word, EXPENSIVE. A little history... I have the entire set of DnD miniatures. I was addicted. I would buy 3 cases at a go... fill the set when I was a miniature (or 5) from...
