    ESDs and Uk/Europe distribution

    Having followed the collapse of RPGA UK and the formation of Raven, and the Wizards supply problems of the last year, I'm now left wondering whether anything will ever happen to make Wizards $5 ESDs available to most of the world. As i understand it, sometime last summer, Wizards stopped their...

    Planar travel

    ESDs and distribution Does anyone know what wizard's policy is now? Seeing as they've stopped official distribution to the UK (and europe afaik) then they don't have that excuse to hide behind. Incidentally, at least in birmingham, third party distributors have only just managed to take up...

    Questionable morals - PC's killing children

    But if you kill the Druid, then he'll go from not fighting SOME of the time to not fighting ALL of the time, and won't be able to talk down that dire bear holding a knife to a girl's throat round the next corner. As someone who's crippled the team and endangered an innocent life AND may well...

    Alternate ranger options

    I'm sure I've replied ot a similar thread about rangers but have never seen it since. A good non-magical ranger is from the Primal Codex, a $5 pdf on wilderness from rpgnow or whatever. It's got favoured terrains, a kind oif weapon expertise, some trapping plusses and a neat...

    What would you assign as the ECL of a Quasi-diety?

    But Titans are ECL 30 according to the recent dragon, I think the idea is that abilities are more powerful for PCs than they are for NPCs, and so ECL bonus is typically higher than CR. And yes, PCs of ECL x have more equipment than npcs/monsters of CR x, according to the tables in the DMG...

    The Liberation of Tenh, and Risen Goddess

    Cool, I've missed Risen Goddess. One day I'll have enough time to start reading Liberation of Tenh, but there's so very many words..

    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    Avatars I hope you're not as right as you think about Avatars. Everything i've seen suggetss to me that Divine Rank and what type of God the creature is counts for a lot. Avatars have half the original's DR and lose two off the powers that gods have - that we know from the D&DG thread. What...

    3d maze puzzle - the more brain ache the better

    While reading this forum I've had an idea for a difficult maze that can somehow only be successfully navigated by seeing parts of it from sub mazes. Something like a 3d escher-esque maze with reverse gravities all over the place so that the path that takes you to the prize in the middle can...

    For BADD - but outside their scope

    BADD tend to deal in the tactics and capbilities Dragns should be able to use against adventurers, and ways to defend themselves against adventurers. But another big threat to Dragons is other dragons (especially for silver & red dragons). So my question/challenge is this: What tactics should...

    I need some help locking the tower

    Read the Twins dragonlance trilogy? Ther's a ward there that can only be defeated by the free-willed agreement of a purely good cleric and a perfectly evil mage. I can't think of any other such unlikely combinations at the moment, but the key could be some unlikely combination of un-minded...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    I think very early on in the hercules thread, someone metioned something about the level of god being a template. But this has not been picked upon as far as I know. Looking at the stats for the gods in grewhark magazine, it seems clear that the type of god plays as large a role as the number...

    skill questions: stacking and arson - what skill?

    craft (firemaking) then you could modify the time/cost and difficulty rules structure a little to adjudicate setting fires. Maybe knowledge(pyrotechnics) could give a synergy bonus, of course. It's all part of the beauty of d20.

    Magic-free Ranger-class

    The Primal Codex has a quite good hunter class. It's a $5 pdf that you can buy from wherever sells pdfs (I forget where I got it). It may work quite well for a desert hunter. level dependent abilities include having a favoured terrain type idea, a favoured weapon, a good way to handle the...

    DM has 'painted' himself into a corner

    LostSoul has the best idea. But if you want some real nastiness, read Vernor Vinges' "A Fire Upon the Deep". The Countermeasure. Then the rest of his books, but they're not so relevant.
