    Mearls redesigns the Ogre Mage

    My thoughts are the same on this. I would just give it a +10 racial bonus to Diplomacy, Sense Motive and Bluff. I think that in and of itself would make it a good "Mastermind" villain. No need to ensorcel the population when you can win friends and influence people naturally. Now on the...

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    I see where you guys are coming from on this point I suppose. But truly, it is not Monte's fault that you won't use the channels he has provided for purchase. Both White Wolf and Drivethru are reputable company's. I also don't think this is a product designed for wide distribution any way. By...

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    Ok, but this statement doesn't make sense either. He IS releasing it in parts, as .pdfs. Their are 3 released already, and one of them is even free. And you COULD have paid for it over time, a whole years worth of time with the preorder. I am glad it is one big book, for me that is part of...

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    "If I do buy this book, it will be because I did get my hands on an Amazon gift card and if I never get it, it will not be Amazon.com I blame." I don't get this statement. Monte actually went so far as to tell Amazon he would not be using them and they still choose to keep it up. In a sense...

    3.5 Missing Link

    I think that it is not the character options, but the tactical options that take me "out" of the game. Before 3e we just described what we did, we did not plot it out like super chess. I think the description added to the level of versimilitude. I know you can describe what you do now, but you...

    Help me make a unique group of henchmen!

    Dark Creepers in the Fiend Folio, they are small like kids. Mean little stab you in the back kids. They would work well, as would Skulks in the same book. Or even better, make the hencman setup like an adventuring group. Say a Dark Creeper rogue, Wispling bard, a Thorn druid (MM 3), etc etc, all...

    Why can't you be prepared for a game session

    Bullgrit wrote my life, I think he is my long lost brother/clone! But I think I know why it happens that way. My main source of recreation outside of my family is D&D, it is my "me time". So it becomes more important to me than to the guys without families/ long term relationships who essentialy...

    Goblin Wolf-Rider

    I like it, I had a player in my Eberron campaign who wanted to be a Goblin wolf-rider. We just came up with a ranger that subbed out the combat style with mounted combat feats. It worked out really well, but I like the idea of a prestige class. Another thing you could use is the WOTC website...

    Variant Death Deity Favored Weapon

    In my homebrew both the God of Wars and Deaths clerics could have any weapon as "favored". The reason was that they all are used in war and they all kill

    Heroscape - Anyone played It?

    I too play with my son, 6. A good little skirmish game, I have also played out some of the scenarios with my buddies. And I have used the Mini's in D&D. But they are a little bigger, but functional.

    The World is coming to an end - help me make it happen.

    An undead swarm that adds whatever it kills to it. Just apply the swarm template on a much much larger scale. Say a 100000 ghouls swarm. At the heart of the swarm is an artifact, so you have to defeat the swarm and then destroy the artifact that generates it. Plus their is a cult working against...

    All about cults...

    One way you could do it is model it after the Dragon Marks in Eberron, low level cultists have a least cult power feat and on up for rank. And the most powerful cultists take a 5 level prestige class, but have to at least have a least cult power to go into the class. That way you could easily...

    Reorienting campaign design

    I did a similar campaign plan once. I essentially broke it down to 3 movies for the whole campaign. 3 acts per movie, 3-5 scenes per act. Each scene would usually take anywhere from 30 minutes to over 90 minutes if it was combat heavy. Probably 2/3 of my scenes involved either overcoming an...

    Cleric, heal my horse!!

    You could also add the warbeast template if the dm allows, from one of the MM's or maybe fiend folio. If the dm is real nice he may let you do the warbeast AND magebred template. But I would say wild cohort is your best bet. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/re/20031118a

    Creepy...

    Undead Kids!? Some of my creepiest DM moments involve undead children. The pc's were investigating a necromancers lair and came upon a "nursery", the wet nurse was a beautiful pale girl tied to a rocking chair with puncture marks all over her breasts, and the "babies" were crawling cooing...
