    Unearthed Arcana Spell Points (high levels)

    It's mostly an attempt to stave off 'Holy Hand Grenades' (or whatever clever moniker you can think up) - drop a cleric, let's say, into the middle of combat and he blows all his points on Flame Strikes. Looking at the math either way: With no 'point per die' caveat: My 20th level cleric...

    Unearthed Arcana Spell Points (high levels)

    Whoops. I thought basic Fireballs were 3d6. I've never played a caster beyond 3rd level (they've always been one- or two-shot adventures) :) The character itself is going to be relatively fun anyway; I'll post stuff here from the game this Saturday to show how it played out. We're only 3rd...

    Unearthed Arcana Spell Points (high levels)

    The UA tables are just about the same as the Psion tables. Threadjacking myself; it would be interesting to see a treatment of a slot-based Psionicist. Another huge balancer to all that is the fact that you have to pay a point to raise the spell level for damage - a 10d6 fireball costs you 5...

    Unearthed Arcana Spell Points (high levels)

    If you convert the amount of points a 20th level Wizard (with 23 Int) has back into the slot system, and weight it towards matching the slot-wizard's high-level spells per day, it's interesting. The point-wizard can match the slot wizard all the way down to fifth level. The point-wizard gets 1...

    Unearthed Arcana Spell Points (high levels)

    I'm assuming this isn't House Rules since it's a published product :) Has anyone used UA's spell points at high levels, say, above 15 or so? Doing the simple math on it, a slot-casting Wizard has about 70 or so points (I don't have the math on me right now, so I'm guess-remembering) above and...

    WotC's New Player Strategies - Thoughts?

    Whedon would never do it - but imagine; the final episode of Buffy, the final scene: The scene fades, and the camera zooms out from a table covered in a grid map, with miniatures and dice, to see those 4 characters, and a fifth, unknown person playing DnD. The unknown person says: "Ok, guys...

    Unearthed Arcana: Buying?

    Not sure yet. I'd have to thumb through the whole thing first - is this stuff (the OGC content) going into the SRD? Even if not, you'd think someone could *technically* OCR it, cut out the naughty WotC-only bits and post it on the intarweb. Hm?

    Lego Space D20 Story Hour

    [offtopic lego geekout] That's an awesome ship - I like the sideways-build to get that nice shape. Is that Block Cad?

    Lego Space D20 Story Hour

    Here's a page with a list of the Lego Space 'themes', or whatever. With pics and stuff. http://www.umop.com/lego.htm I *love* this idea by the way. I mostly had all 'Classic' sets, some Futuron, and then I fell into collecting the 'Castle' stuff instead. Still got em all. :) Edit: Another...

    [3.5/3.0] Collaborative Effort: Collection of Round-by-Round Monster Tactics

    I apologize. I apologize: The Tarrasque - Round By Round Tactics Round 1: Try to eat the party. Round 2: Try to eat the party's animal companions and familiars. Round 3: Try to eat the party's horses. Round 4: Try to eat the party's cohorts and followers. Round 5: Repeat at Round 1 Tactics.

    SRD 3.5 Competition

    I'd like to see a 'compressed' version, of at least the monster and spell files, for a more compact pile of paper. I was able to take reveal's Monster and Spells PDF, convert them to Postscript, and then 'mpage' (it's a unix utility) them into 4 pages on each printed page, which is certainly...

    New SRD available

    There's Epic Level and some Planes information included in this as well.... The Epic information is just notes about progession, progession for the base classes, and feats. No information on epic progression for the included Prestige Classes, unless that's in their own section, haven't looked...

    D&D 3E/3.5 [3.5] What Cleric Domain abilities changed and question on Paladin's summoned mount.

    I'll probably end up using both 3.0 and 3.5 rules. I'll let the horse "exist", in the normal sense - the paladin's mount will be on the Prime Material, but I'll let the paladin do the summoning trick in "Tyme Of Great Neede (tm)" for if they're in a dungeon or what have you, and the mount...
