    Blasted ROLE-PLAYERS!!!

    I was going to suggest ROLE-playing something chaotic neutral, highly paranoid, and combat-oriented. Prehaps a veteran of <insert terrible war here> with a 'can't make an omlette...' mentality who knows that having unreliable comrades just isn't an option. Normally i would NEVER off...

    [Purity Test] Who's the "purest" gamer here?

    189 out of 490. I closed the window but that's around 38.something percent. Joining the ranks of the veterans. woo-hoo. Hail Eris ?

    D&D on trial (again)

    Re: Re: Facts anyone ? Thanks mate. Man this post got popular all quick-like. I guess i'm not the only bored person with a computer out there :-] (please note, this post does not warrant a response)

    D&D on trial (again)

    Facts anyone ? All this speculation and vehement refutation of the lawyer = scum stereotype is well and good, but i'd like some more facts about the case. I don't watch court TV, and so i was wondering if this story hit anywhere in the online news? There's gotta be some actual information out...

    Anyone remember Alternity ?

    I remember it well I don't think it was just sales either. Everyone who played the game seems to have enjoyed it, espically the D*M setting. I seem to recall reading somewhere that alternity was always intended to be a stand-alone, contained project. Sort of a precurser to the D20 system...

    Anyone remember Alternity ?

    Speaking of non-d20 games (someone was, a few min ago)... ...Does anyone still play Alternity, the sci-fi game put out a year or two before 3rd ed ? Man, that was one quality piece of work. The skill system made sense and the die step system was elegant, adding just the right amount of...

    (CoC) Anyone Play Yet?

    My lil CoC Game I've had the fortune to run two CoC sessions already. The players, hot on the trail of some alcohol smugglers (it's the 20's, prohibition, remember?) Tracked them down to a beachhead only to find these so-called smugglers involved in some crazy voodoo-ish ritual, apparently...

    About Truestrike + xbows

    Well, assuming we don't have any PrC abilities that apply, or the throw anything feat, but we DO have three attacks, the simple answer is in the improvised weapon rules, the jist of which is -4 to hit, 10ft range increment, i'd say like 1d6 damage (it's like being hit with a club, no ?) crit on...

    Dbl Weapon damage

    This came up in a game the other day. An NPC quaterstaff-wielding 4th level cleric with a 19STR (due bull's strength) was using a quaterstaff as a dbl weapon. What should her STR bonus to damage have been with each attack ?

    Giving the PC's a country

    I've wanted to run a high-politics game for some time, and so when i came across the countrycraft rules in Dragon 293 they made me all warm and fuzzy inside. Now, using these as a basis, i plan to have my PC's in control of a small nation, and i was wondering if anyone else has done this sort...

    Another Wall of Force question

    Web doesn't mention that you can sling it between some trees as a hammock with a built-in alarm clock, but i'm pretty sure you could pull it off. If a spell doesn't say you _Can't_ do something, then i'm inclined to let my players do it, or at least try. Seems to me that what makes the most...

    Different Healing

    I really like the way healing is handeled in the Wheel of Time, where it leaves you tired (converts to subdual instead of instantly making you all better). It's just so much cooler, and i've always thought the way healing is handled in DnD feels too much like a video game. (yeah i know, the...

    Are Spells Balanced by Level?

    It might not ruin the game, but it would put a serious hurting on the sorcerer class, with their already-limited spell selection.

    How much subdual can YOU do ?

    Wait, could someone please clarify the rules about subdual damage turning into normal damage ? I'm not familiar with it.

    How much subdual can YOU do ?

    I was reading MotW and i saw the new +1 weapon enhancement that converts a weapon's damage type to subdual and add a nice 1d6 kick while it's at it. This prompted me to wonder (and ask) "Just how much subdual damage could a character dedicated to doing subdual inflict on some hapless...
