It's the end of EN World as we know it, And I Feel Fine ;) For all the work you've done on the new boards thank you. And for all the work you did keeping the old boards together thank you for that as well.

No a DM far more than a player, and I'll say up front that I think 4e is garbage and am not impartial by any means. I never had a bit of problem running 3e all the way into epic levels or the types of abilities removed from 4e. As a DM I liked the that I could use summoning, illusions...

I agree there is a point where game balance becomes stifling. The object is to operate in that middle ground where things aren't completely unbalanced yet the balance isn't so strict it reduces the options. With 4e it feels like they turned game balance into a straight-jacket and got rid of...

Yep Amorphous metal isn't really new, the uses have just been limited by production constraints. Ever since that crew at Oak Ridge managed bulk amorphous steel I've been hopeful. It has extremely interesting properties if it can only be produced in sufficient quantity.

Thematically we were dealing with giants and with a DnD greatsword. And those are both generally equated to zweihander's so that's what I went with. There was nothing to indicate an Asian influence. And this was clearly modeled on a D&D greatsword which isn't usable one-handed as opposed to...

All fine and great ideas, but you may want to treat Steuben with a little more respect. Using his name disrespectfully can be looked upon in an ill light by quite a few people.

All this talk of Elves has reminded me why I've always wanted to DM or play an Elven genocide campaign. Then my campaigns could be pointy-ear free, other than the politically suspect pork that is.

There was a build on the Wizard's CO boards a while back that could reliably make shots out so far he required a diviner to spot targets for him. Let me go looking through and see if I can find it again.

Notice that as a familiar none of the abilities being granted the wyrmling are actual HD, they're all virtual by way of reflection from the caster's HD/BAB/etc. As such I'd say the familiar ages normally by racial HD, in which case you get 5 years until it's no longer a wyrmling.

Definitely Hellboy and Dark Knight. But I have to say Hancock looks very funny in that way only Will Smith can pull off.

Search is only available to community supporters. As for your questions. Double Treasure is simply double the standard treasure amount for an encounter of that EL. Standard Treasure is done by EL and appears on p51 of the 3.5e DMG as a table in the middle of the page. EDIT: If you are new...

A company, it doesn't need to be any particular company for our purposes. And given the behaviors of WoTC I don't see that a smaller company with more responsiveness to its user base like Paizo or SJGames couldn't fill the same niche. D&D isn't the largest revenue stream at WoTC, most of the...

It has it's high points, including a lot of geek in-jokes and stereotypes. And they're usually pretty funny. It has potential, but overall it was so stereotypically Japanese in its depictions/dialog/characters/behavior it made my teeth hurt to watch it.

Go to a party supply store and get one or two of the cheap vinyl table-cloths with open checkerboard grids, most are close enough to a 1" grid not to matter. They're cheap, they wash off most markers, and oh yeah they're cheap.

My memory is not exactly great but I recall a Tower of Darkness in an NES game. And it was an RPG as well, not in the Final Fantasy style though. More like Ghosts & Goblins with RPG elements added on.

Was it called "Influence?" If so then it's likely an update of the system from the old Game of Thrones rpg from GOO. Modified to fit the new mechanics and probably upgraded a bit since from the description it's had bits added on resembling the Exalted social combat system.

RAW says to double per size increase but this leads to nonsensical results. Volume (& thus weight) cube every time you double linear dimensions. So Huge Greatsword=Base Weight*64 (BW^3*3) A greatsword is shorter than the person wielding it, by how much varies. Though in general many were...

Missile Silos you aren't going to find many maps of. You might be able to find an internet site or something, I know there are a couple old silos converted to museums. But for the most part you don't really see maps of military facilities distributed that way for security reasons. EDIT: But...

And? We don't need 5e and we don't need their corporation. We have three editions of background to pull from and a boatload of OGC. I think it's time to let the major corporation side of this hobby die and just set off on our own without them. They're nothing but excess overhead dragging us...

I believe the situation we have here is a gorilla that needs to learn being 800 pounds doesn't make you bullet-proof. WoTC needs to learn a lesson in humility. They need us, we do not need them.
