    The Cost of Stronger Poisons?

    You could use this: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20modern/we/20021103a Which has a small section on making poisons, and then match a d20 Modern purchase DC to a D&D gold piece value. Probably take some poisons the two have in common and match the prices and see what the "new" posion...

    Fun w/ Balance, Jump and Tumble

    So I have a character with really good bonuses for Balance (+24), Jump (+33) and Tumble (+26) and 5 levels of Theif-Acrobat, so I don't have to worry about most of the penalties for movement when using these skills. What kind of fun stuff can I do with these skills, and what books can I find...

    Someone mentioned an All Flesh Must Be Eaten game?? *looks around* Sign me up for that! Let's see what evolves with the afternoon games before I sign for anything there.

    Finding the BCCS

    I too got tired of the Amazon waiting game and got a copy from these fine folks: http://www.doordice.com/ Ordered on sunday night and it was shipped Monday. Now I just have to wait for it to hit my doorstep. Edit: Just checked and it HAS hit my doorstep! Less then 3 days to get it from...

    Dark Legacies from Red Spire Press - Opinions?

    I've been keeping semi-tabs on this setting/book since I first heard about it and from the reviews I've read I am really hoping to get it sometime soon. But I'd like some opinions from fellow EN-World'ers that have either read it or played it for their impressions. So - tell me what you think...

    How do you organize your D&D computer files?

    Thanks for the tip on MS OneNote! The place I work at has all the MS stuff (and it seems MS sends more every week) so I was able to check it out and it looks like it will be very cool to use. I see a few limitations with it, but then again, I haven't found anything that has everything I want...

    Barrel of Alchemist's Fire

    Cool thread, I've been thinking about stuff like this for a homebrew i will run in the future. I like the idea of the AF bomb, but the thing strikes me is the cost. 5000gp for this seems absurd - why not do something a little more "advanced" (because - hey, if wizards and alchemists are...

    The "I'm going to get hit no matter what my AC is" philosphy

    I have the same philosophy about AC, after a while, it just doesn't seem to matter. So, at least with my melee characters, I try to go for a decent AC (so that mooks have a tough time hitting me, and itterative attacks aren't as punishing either) but high HP. The Toughness feat and the...

    magic weapons: special materials after the fact

    I'd allow someone to change the material properties of their weapon - but they'd have to work for it, and it probably couldn't be from one special material to another (ie cold iron to silver). Here's my idea, based loosely on some concepts i garnered from Neal Stephensons Quicksilver, in which...

    Computer Problems (virus?)

    I've had to fight problems like this quite a few times. I would recommend going here: http://www.spywareinfo.com/ and check out the help they can offer. There are two pieces of software that can help you (both available at the site above), the first is called BHODemon, the second is...

    Zombies

    First off - are we talking the slow, shambling type zombie, or something more along the lines of 28 Days Later where the things are fast and vicious? Either way - things aren't going to be good. Second – I agree with Turgenev, read All Flesh Must Be Eaten. It covers a lot of this stuff in the...

    How do you get "in character" for NPCs?

    Recently I've been thinking about ways to spice up my NPCs (and maybe even some of my own PCs), such as the accents they use, they way they move, something they might carry around (like a lucky coin they are always rolling around in their hand) and other things to make them a little more...

    Mapping concepts

    Cool idea with the vellum sheet. What brand/type of paper was it? This is just to cool of an idea not to use. Also - did you have any problem with the ink bleeding to much (i've printed on vellum before and the kind that was used bled very badly), not drying (another problem i had with a...

    AU - Verrick Racial Levels question

    I don't have my book here at work, but this morning i noticed that in the description of the verrick racial levels it mentions that verrick racial levels stack with caster level for caster level benefits (or wording to a similar effect). Now - maybe I am missing something (or not), but does...
