    Zombies You Can Chew On...

    That's awesome. I'll definitely use that part next time. And using ghouls isn't a bad idea either. Just a little something to put a little scare into them.

    Zombies You Can Chew On...

    First off, love zombies. Love the undead. If it's a corpse and it's still walking, I'm there. Put them in a game any time. ...but I want my zombies to eat PCs. Render flesh, all that Romero stuff. Anyone know of any good rules out there that don't just take away hps?

    Effective ways to capture PC's without magic?

    I tried this once before too, but it also backfired because they all decided to fight it out and free the hostaged PC. When I decided to execute him instead, using the generic rules as written, he still lived...and I think the PCs knew that, which was why they rushed. So I established some new...

    Minotaur and Natural Cunning

    We came across that same problem when working on our first PDF, Campaign Options: Mazes...along with finding a game term for "never getting lost." We turned natural cunning into a general category of abilities, one of which was the Track feat as a bonus feat, and a few other things as well...

    What DO you DO for... Fighters?

    Very cool. What else do you give to the other classes, I wonder?

    Art or no art?

    If you can find a way to replace artwork with other filler material, then I don't think it matters. For example, we've run into so many problems getting artwork done for our latest project that we've pretty much given up and are trying to find new ways to fill in the pages and make it visually...

    Too Many Feats?

    Not sure if there's a lot of gamers out there who look at this MASSIVE list of feats and ask "How? When? Who?" I know in my campaign, it's become daunting the number of feats out there and how impossible it would be to actually use them all. I remember seeing a book of nothing but feats from...

    New Prestige Class - The Combat Sniper

    I like parts of it too, but there's a couple of switch-outs that could be done to emphasize more of a "sniper" PrC. - increase the bow's range by 50%, allowing him to take better shots from farther away; - a spin-off of sneak attack damage using a ranged attack; if the sniper holds his shot and...

    What DO you DO for... Fighters?

    Skills seem to be the biggest problem with fighters - not the number of skill points, but the skills they're allowed to select. I give any fighter the option to switch out a class skill for a different skill to account for the style of fighter they wish to become. Not all fighters are hulking...

    What alignment is House?

    In the fifth episode of Season One, "Damned If You Do," the nun dying of allergies in a clean room asks House why he doesn't believe in God. His answer... "What I have difficulty with is the whole concept of belief. Faith isn't based on logic and experience..." At this point, he is cut off...

    What alignment is House?

    P.S. Finally, a way to combine my favourite show with my favourite game. If only my players and House-mates could look at this thread without rolling their eyes. ;)

    What alignment is House?

    (cracks fingers) The theory behind House being chaotic is that he subverts authority and while there's no question about that, his entire life is not revolved around disputing authority. Even with the 2E version of lawful neutral, order and organization are the key belief of this character, no...

    What alignment is House?

    No, but a chaotic character would not turn to science as a rule. THAT is the "law" House follows: science. Proven facts and known causes are what guide him and he cares little for the socially accepted ways to get there. If he were chaotic, he would put doubt on the facts and put his own spin...

    What alignment is House?

    "A lawful neutral character acts as law, tradition, or a personal code directs her." Not to the letter. House follows a personal code to get the job done. Lawful neutral has their own way of doing things that they swear by. House fits that bill.

    What alignment is House?

    Let's not forget, this is the guy who had Cameron falling for him, got Stacy to come crawling back, and hasn't been fired. Must to something to his personality, wouldn't you say? And he was one of People's Sexiest Men, so we definitely talking 15+ on the Charisma scale. I think House's Lawful...

    Do your combats take a lot of Real Time to play out? Why?

    I'm afraid my group runs into the same problem as yours, Quas: too many questions. Uncertaintly and constantly trying to figure out if that one action will be the perfect one always seems to slow things down dramatically. I've been working to speed it up and hold them to a reasonable time...

    Post your favorite mood music...

    The Batman Begins soundtrack has some good qualities to it, especially for a dungeon crawl, but those moments only last so long. There's a lot of slow points, so I'd suggest using any music program to cut out what you don't want and loop over the good stuff. Chronicles of Narnia - also...
