Not really. If you think of the average cow producing ~ 5 gallons/day. That comes out to around 5 lbs of butter and 3 lbs of cheese with a gallon of milk to spare. A half dozen hens can lay eggs for the day, and all of these goods could be traded for other needs. Combine this with the...

3.x DMG p. 130, sidebar marked Variant: Upkeep. Provides one of the easy no-muss, no-fuss base upkeep costs for various character types. Slainte, -Loonook.

Two Words: Living Zeppelin. All that ignition, lightning, bubbling chemical goop has to do wicked things within the Dragon. The real problem is what happens when they lose altitude... :eek: Slainte, -Loonook.

Interesting edition to the thread. I will definitely have to check it out. Slainte, -Loonook.

Not really. Having run g&g with that type of restriction? Players like it. When you have to work for spells. Duelling the firecaller for access to new pyromancy, working with an apprentice and realizing 'wait, if I channel just so I can do...' and learning something new is fun. There's also...

The whistler's identity. If you know the thing in question it's one of those things everyone knows, but Butcher definitely tried for an :eek: moment. Maybe it's just my time studying that subject? I don't know if that's common knowledge. Slainte, -Loonook.

I could never hold down Phoenix. Always repeats on you, and burns when it... Well... Slainte, -Loonook.

No... I'm admitting that, in the case you don't want Vancian magic? You have options. Let us try to find a version of 4e where Vancian casting exists. How about skill-based combat and casting? What about spell points? Again. The flexibility of the OGL's material allows for the game to go...

Just wait. The ending seems forced... One of the 'wow' revelations isn't very wow if you know the history of a specific character who may have changed quite a lot in the eyes of the world over the last years. There's also an extremely forced conversation about a topic in the news that comes...

I like these concepts. Discussing the topic I was reminded of one of our players playing a burly Minotaur who was beloved by all for his beautiful voice. I never thought I would have a Minotaur with Perform ranks going around taking life by the horns... And then of course, the epitome of...

They could easily find out about hit points and how many each individual had through the use of needles. I mean, they deal 1 damage, and if you get a million apprentices with a million needles, you could easily quantify the total amount of times an individual can be 'poked' before collapse...

You don't seem to understand that spells are a part of the system that can be excised and not looked at at all. But again, I'm not expecting much out of meeting anywhere near each other. Your need for kinesthesia aside, this doesn't make your need for vehement agression apparent. In short I...

So we're removing Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes, Improved Trip, Improved Grapple, Power Attack, Mounted Combat... I'm tired, that's all I got for right now ;). But you have in effect cut down quite a lot of specific abilities that are contained in feats. At this point let's just play 2e or...

Just completed Cold Days, the new Dresden Files novel. Oddly disappointing, though it had its moments. Slainte, -Loonook.

I always see barbarians in pelts, Druids in ragged robes, and shaman in breech clouts... This changes today. What are your tales of 'Savage' classes turned suave, debanoir, and urbane? I began to think of such things after being reminded of my favorite 'Paladin'. Who happened to be a tough...

Ahh, a young and intrepid swineherd. Reminds me of my father and his current pension being drawn from the United Goods Guild. UGG was a great Guild, but his work cleaning hippogriff manure was done with pride AND prejudice. Slainte, -Loonook.

So if we decide to change one portion of the rules... We are now worried about whether the boat is still the boat? Yes. Elements of Magic made a complete 1:1 swap for spells, with built in guidelines for any spellcasting class and full modular spellcasting for any spell with dozens of examples...

How about sex is dangerous, and thus respected? In this, I will strictly be going with heterosexual intercourse... I don't feel like getting into any other imbroglio. We are a race that is poorly built for natural procreation. Sure, it's fantastic fun, and practice makes perfect... But...

How do you handle it? Between fourthmeal, late night munches, and dawn tea? It would drive me insane. I mean, before I worked in insurance I tried a few things. Just out of school I worked on the docks until that mimic accident. The box felt heavy, but I've never seen a whole package of...

Well, of course that is an option. But what happens if in the middle of turning the seas red with the blood of the blessed you become impregnated by the genius loci of a place of foul corruption? What I'm meaning to say here is GAEICO provides maternity insurance. It's gender neutral. Just...
