Regdar, I seriously doubt it. Have you been part of the job[less] market lately? How many job applications have you sent in that have gotten zero response? I've found that's often the case (although I am currently employed, thank God). This is basically just a VERY widespread job...

I agree with ForceUser. My dad and I had this conversation last night, actually. He said he never really "got" roleplaying games, he never saw the appeal, and I guess he figured I would grow out of them (I'm 26 and I see no end in sight), but he also said he thought the whole trend was...

Honestly I don't think that 16 in INT is going to help you much, because the cleric skill list is pretty pathetic. Granted, I understand it's part of your character concept, but you might consider taking a level of bard to help meet that concept? Seems to me that clerics are more about...

LMAO. Can you imagine how many BAD proposals they are going to get? I only wish they could publish the really bad ones just for a laugh. :D Also, and I am really not trying to sound like a jerk here, but I suspect that some of the entrants who don't speak English so good are gonna get dumped...

Re: Solution... I could be wrong here, but wouldn't the archer still get his full attack action on you, despite the AoO you get on him?

Would someone explain to me why they are not just bringing back Planescape??? :D

Nightfall... I guess my only "issue" with the gods is that they are supposed to be somewhat the 'good guys' while the Titans were villains. Dead villains, but villains nonethless. And yet, the 8 gods occupy all eight alignments, which also makes it somewhat more difficult to deal with things...

I totally agree with you on that. Make it an inspiring place, I say. The 'ley lines' idea was dead on, if you ask me. Remember the cartoon Dungeons & Dragons? To me, that show epitimized a good, mysterious place. I suggest ideas that are easily visualized. Of course, YMMV :)

I agree with the earlier posters that 2d0 is a very strong system for fantasy roleplaying. I will also agree that it may not work as well for other kinds of systems, Star Wars in particular. I played for years using WEG's crumby d6 system, and you know what? It was fun. I can't even imagine...

The way I look at it, the more material you have at your disposal, the less work you actually have to put into it. The monster books just give you more to work with. All I did was read through the Ghelspad Gazeteer, and then read through a few of the city supplements (Hollowfast, Mithril...

I'm thoroughly pumped. I'll be buying it as soon as I see it, and I'll probably cave and buy all the other SL products I don't yet own as well (Warrens of the Ratmen, Divine & defeated).

VERY Ironic Hi. I have an ironic confession to make. Seeing this post, I had every intention of voting myself proudly as "roleplayer." Then I saw the poll, thought about it, thought about my most recent character, and decided, "well, yeah, I guess I'm kind of a powergamer too..." So I meant...

Yes I am running a campaign that uses a 32 point buy. I think it's perfect. The players will have no reason to complain. All the characters will have equality, which is good. They won't be too weak, which is good, especially at low levels (TPK won't be nearly as much of a problem). Let's...

A very detailed book on GENERIC city/town/kingdom generation would be a great idea. The stuff in the DMG was good, but they could do a lot more.

On reflection..... I guess my biggest beef with the 2e system would have to be the way each ability stat had a different...... you guessed it.... CHART. A 15 in STR meant basically nothing. In DEX it would give you -1 to AC.... but no bow bonus IIRC. Put it in Con, hey look you got a +1...

I am aware of that, yes.... and I definitely don't want to make any enemies here or anywhere. HOWEVER, when THAC0 was "what was done," I really didn't think anything much about it. It worked about the same way as BAB does now, really. A certain die roll produces a certain result based on...

Ever Since 3e came out there have been arguments as to which was better: 3e or some older edition. Now, I for one LOVE 3e, but before it came along, I really didn't see any major problems with 2e. A few house rules for multiclassing and level advancement, perhaps, but not much more. So, what...

I honestly never thought about this point before today... But it is completely true. The reason I'm finding this out more and more is because I'm trying to determine which feats I will allow in my upcoming campaign, which, after a few sessions, will be taken over (DM'ed) by a guy who doesn't...

In this context, it would simply be the levels that seem the most fun to you. In the context of my refrigerator, it would be the sticky, fluorescent pink puddle that I try very diligently to avoid. Regarding the concept that "sweet spot" = (your level +1): come on. By that logic, why would...

WARNING! This is Off-Topic I really don't get the "recent" level of offense people have been taking to the idea that 'munchkins' exist. When I play D&D, I go way out of my way to try and make my character as powerful as I can. Sometimes, I even alter my character concept slightly to give...
