I favor the Alpha skills, they resemble a SAGAesque HRed skill system I already used and the numbers are better for use of existing DCs. I probably would have broken down the skills slightly differently and ended up with a few less. But these are a good system especially for an Alpha test...

I second Hunter in Darkness check out Pathfinder Alpha. The basic philosophy of Saga skill system is a fine mesh it just needed the formula tweaked to be compatible with existing 3.5e DCs. And it is! I think I'd have done the consolidation slightly differently and ended up with a few less...

IT'S ALIVE I've always wanted to say that:)

I'd always used the rubble rules from the DMG. 1 body in a space is light rubble, more than 1 body in a space is heavy rubble. Rolling carpets of mounded bodies ala 300 are natural cave floor. EDIT: And I always thought it was more fun to play fratricide dominoes. Can I make them fall into...

I know what you're talking about. And you have it relatively easy since you started with a small number of word processor documents. If I weren't already in the midst of editing/formating/and publishing the work of an acquiantance of mine I'd offer. I had to consolidate and reformat 37...

The DM has spoken! She'll allow me to take Leadership twice, but the second one will grant only a cohort and will reduce the level of both cohorts by 1. Which is okay by me as they aren't really supposed to be combat monsters in their own right. They're more a "living" background element of...

I never said boycott you'll notice, in my experience boycotts are pointless and usually just get ignored. Think of what I'm doing as punitive consumerism. I don't buy from companies that piss me off even if it costs more and causes a measure of hardship. I don't plan on moving to 4e and had...

My cat greeted me as well, now my head is sore. Feed Me

Speak for yourself, when I say something I mean it. I already dislike 4e enough not to play or DM it anyway. I sat out 2e I can sit out another edition just as well. If they dump open gaming it just means I go up the chain a step and extend my non-purchasing to Hasbro too not that I bought...

Do you think I care if they notice? I think it's an appropriate response so it's the one I take and they can bite me if they think their notice, opinion, or anything else matters to me more than the bug I stepped on this morning.

The last book I bought from WoTC was Grand History of the Realms I anticipated it might be the last book I bought from WoTC considering how 4e was being designed. Now I will go even farther, I will purchase no Hasbro product again EVER if they abandon open gaming period

The spinning wheel one. And the evil sorceress turns into a big black dragon to fight the "rescuing prince" at the end. It's actually one of Disney's best animated fights, also uses the whole stereotypical BBEG beats up on brave hero until at the very last moment he manages to drive a sword...

At the time I had Sleeping Beauty playing for my niece while I watched her. The princesses' name is Aurora. Haven't been getting much sleep lately it seemed in context at the moment.

The Cheesy Kind What I'd like to see is something like the Ultimate classes of 3.5e where it could focus on say either shapeshifting or nature magic. It would have both but would be better at whichever area it specialized in with a secondary ability to fill another role.

But where's the sorceress/dragon? Damnit I want to see that b**** get back up after a discarding sabot round up the ass.

By RAW shields aren't very optimal so mostly they don't get used. With the exception of paladins and clerics, more clerics than the first. On the other hand right now my planescape campaign has a very unusual cleric who just acquired a tower shield from a Hextorite blackguard and the first...

There are no RAW guidelines for that, it's purely a matter of what the DM will allow. I'll allow more than most and I've seen PCs make some entertaining, weird, and downright disturbing uses in my campaigns. Because if you make the changes via Stone Shape when Flesh to Stone is applied they...

I'll probably run your options past him I'm also thinking a custom feat that gives second cohort at 1/2 leader or gives 2 cohorts but both at leader-4. Maybe make both and see if either flies, the followers are unimportant so if they don't your version would be fine. The general idea is a...

I've hit a snag. I've got a character concept and the idea requires two cohorts that have a rivalry with each other. Somewhere I'm certain I saw a feat/prestige class/etc that gave an extra cohort while reducing the level of both cohorts some to compensate for the extra NPC. But I've got...

Not too bad if you just sat down to watch a prehistoric fantasy, though it was a little timid as others have noted and dragging in the middle. Needed more action to keep the center going. Of course what I'd really like to see is a modern sort of campy 10 Million BC type retro caveman movie...
