    RPG-ish Boardgames

    So now I have to find my original copy and see if I can understand the rules. A doctorate should be good for something! Do you have a link for those "3.0" rules (and where were the 2.0 rules?!). C

    Need a short summary: Oriental Adventures 3.0

    Thanks everyone! I'm glad I was able to stir up some interesting consideration of the book. I found a brand new copy for $16, so I bought it. I hope to get some decent crunch out of it. C

    RPG-ish Boardgames

    My goodness! Magic Realm! Haven't heard that one mentioned in forever! I owned that game and I wish I knew where it was. I tried to make sense of the rules a dozen times between the ages of 10 and 20 and never succeeded. There were some REALLY interesting ideas in that game! For something...

    Need opinion on Dragon/Dungeon

    Thanks everyone! It was clear from everyone's advice overall that Dungeon was clearly superior, but I still couldn't shake the feeling that I would be missing something in the other no matter which one I chose.

    Need a short summary: Oriental Adventures 3.0

    Hi all. I'm trying to decide if OA is of any use to me. I'm not using Rokugan, I only have one small "faux Asia" country in my homebrew and I don't have any feelings that the versions of the Samurai, Shugenja, Ninja, or Wu Jen from the Complete books suck. Taking all that into account, is...

    Need opinion on Dragon/Dungeon

    So, for Father's Day, my wife offered to get me a sub to Dragon or Dungeon, or just to give me some money to fill out my 3.5 collection. I was interested in Dragon or Dungeon, but (even noting how much off retail it is), I think $39 is a lot for a magazine sub. I wanted to know from the...

    Caster Level and Prereqs

    If a character has an effect that permanently increases caster level, would that increased caster level satisfy any caster level prereqs for other feats? One of the players has a multiclass spellcaster with Practiced Spellcaster from Complete Divine. With his effective +4 caster level (bumping...
