I realize this thread has drifted into "historic fictional references to/psychological impact of" cat-folk, I figured I should chime in myself, since I'm putting the polish on a race of catfolk for my own homebrew, dwellers in an alpine forest. They're spoilered below because not everybody wants...

Hmm. 's an interesting one, Findlefarb. Taken under consideration. Gestalt is not what I want at all. Discuss its balance if you wish - though it makes more sense as a new thread - but it's not gonna be my choice. When you only have three classes, starting humans with two makes them a bit too...

Yoink! As far as I'm concerned, that's the perfect approach to the 5' step. A thought I had on the subject, also... ----- I admit to not, myself, being a hand-to-hand combat type. Nevertheless, a lot of people are discussing the 5' step in a one-on-one combat, like a personal duel or martial...

Where's that one located? I'm sure I have access to it, but there are a lot of feats out there.

Either way. Doesn't really matter to me. This thread was an accident, but if people want to use the title to generate a feat, they're welcome to. I leave this thread to the population at large.

Is this thread now just post counting until the mods find it, or what? The last couple posts have been....odd.

2nd Edition D&D works fine if you ignore everything but the three core books, any monsters you want, and your favorite setting. It can really feel a lot like what people tell me Hackmaster is like if you ignore all the awful rules.

Thought I'd stick my head in and see what's come up so far: Caliban, the all skills are class skills is fairly substantial when using Unearthed Arcana's generic classes; it takes out a lot of the incentive to multi-class into expert, and since class abilities are now feats with mostly...

Threadjack away, Cabral! There's something similar in the AEG Feats book, IIRC...something along the lines of "as long as you're not attacking, throwing spells, or the last target, enemies will ignore you in favor of other more obvious foes". But by all means, make an OGC one.

Well, looking for a point in a Paranoia game is part of the problem. :D I think, more than any other system, it requires a very clever GM who gets the setting completely. I know a couple of my top ten most favorite gaming sessions were Paranoia, and I know the one time I ran it I swore never to...

Errr...nope. I'm referring to the catalog I flipped through at my FLGS a few years back while looking for "something new". OTOH, I might be thinking of Conan supplements. Maybe 2nd Edition. It was a while ago, but I remember thinking "There's like two and a half pages, two columns a page, in...

I came in via previous editions...one session of 1e and I was hooked on RPGs in general. Of course, that was the last 1e I ever played, since I fell in with a Palladium crowd for a while. Came back for AD&D 2e, avoided the Player's Option books like the plague, moved to 3.0, -nearly- embraced...

Wombat's actually reminded me of a couple others: I had forgotten my dislike of GURPS, though it's primarily out of a sense of consumer outrage than anything else. Do you really need a dozen books about Robin Hood? Right. Warhammer 40K. It wasn't even so much the Rules Lawyers, the bad blood...

While tweaking the overall rules set for my homebrew...it's only just still D&D at this point. I'm using generic classes, Elements of Magic Revised, and a Destiny Pool; lacking Eberron I'm hesitant to compare them to Action Points, but they're designed to save yourself from certain death, enable...

Connection went a little crazy, double-threaded. Delete me, please?

You know, I hadn't thought much about Rifts in more than a decade, but that does make a lot of sense. There was something truly awesome about books full of giant robots, crazy magical abilities, and mind-numbingly powerful entities at 14. You felt like you could blow the :eek::]:p:lol: out of...

Ooooh boy. There are a few of these... The first would be the Palladium system in general, Rifts in particular. Don't get me wrong, they may write some really really cool material and I'm scavenging it for bits and pieces for my homebrew, but you could drive a Star Destroyer through the holes...

Many of them have already been said, but my first thought after pawing through the 3.0 MM part-way was, "Where's my banshee!?". This was quickly followed by, "What? NO 'loths at all!?!?" Other than that, I'd say the MotP genies, catoblepas, the original water weird, hook horrors, death knights...

Druid, for all the reasons stated above, even if you're stuck at 1st level. At the absolute least, you could make a decent living as a park ranger. :)

RisnDevil - Well, I got them for free off the website, so I'm pretty sure they're free. If anyone corrects me, there we go, but barring that... Okay. So, they're both too large for me to post here. Email?
