    Sounds like it wouldn't be a problem. Personally, I don't think they need it. But that is based on my experience in 3e. In 5 different gaming groups (I was in the Navy until recently), over half of the characters were human because of the extra feat and skill point per level. To each his (or...

    Define no "cross-class" skills. Do you mean the cross-class costs are removed while the cross-class max ranks is still there or are you talking about removing both. The first is a feat in Races of Destiny and wouldn't be a problem at all as a race ability. The second would be a serious problem IMO.

    Why Bodybuilding is bad

    Military gamers in general, pretty much. No joke.

    OOTS 450 - Wands are for Suckers

    Is that Roy's body in the middle of the first panel? All by itself in between the main hogoblin force and the wall?

    Have you decided to change systems?

    Like Umbran, I have always played multiple systems. For my fantasy gaming though, D&D 3e / D20 is the best that I have ever found. I can tweak it in ways that no other system can accept. And I have tried, believe me. :lol: So, no, I have not "changed systems". If anything, my 3e gaming is...

    Is gaming *with* a map and minis really bad?

    I have always used some sort of visual aids in my games. It helps keep everyone on the same page as to where everything is. I use my battlemat with coins, dice, beads, or whatever I can scrounge to show where things are. Visual aids do not slow down the game, people taking too long to make...

    Is it ok to be mad at Wotc?

    What does On The Ground mean to you?

    FYI, the lightning rail (from Eberron) floats inches above the ground (not touching rails like a modern train), so no, not grounded. Lightning can and has struck wooden ships. That is what St Elmo's Fire is, after all. Plus, water is an excellent conductor. (20 years of electronics experience.)...

    Street Date for Complete Champion?

    It used to be that books released on the second Tuesday, but lately they have been releasing them on the third Tuesday. At least, that is what my FLGS has been dealing with.

    So can creatures on the Outer Planes go Ethereal now?

    Yup. Back in the Manual of the Planes (3.0), it was stated that each outer plane had an Ethereal plane surrounding it (or something like that).

    Duskblade spell list

    Make sure that you are looking at the spell list on page 24. That is the full list for them. So many people have missed that. If you didn't, good for you. If you did, now you know. :D

    Why I WON'T boycott WotC

    You may be right, the best may yet come. But, it is the end of an era. Dragon holds the record (as far as I know) for the longest running gaming magazine. I believe that White Dwarf is a close second and will now take up that mantle, but . . . I still find myself a little sad over this.
