3 questions and rambles Not to be rude, but here are some more questions... many thanks in advance if these are answered. Question 1: are the rules for leaving or creating your own universe left nebulous on account of it being DM's discretion as to whether it should be possible, or is there a...

So I've heard discussions that suggest chargin' pouncin' two handed power attackin' trumps all things in IH, but wouldn't Enchanted Damage Induction (reduce all damage to the enchantment bonus of the weapon) be a great answer to such, especially with Force Field? Or do Damage Reduction and...

Hey Krust, thanks for the quick replies! Huh, good stuff. Well, yeah... I realize they'd be underpowered, but there's at least one extreme minmaxer, and weaker PCs make it probably easier on the DM anyway. In particular, I think there's some potential in a campaign where PCs who've nabbed...

Alright, so first off, a question. Powers that grant templates, do not inflict level adjustment, correct? (Otherwise I am not sure what the point is) Similarly, does increasing in deific level require XP and QP, or just QP? I would expect it does not, on account of the bit about rumored...

Neither do I, but I certainly like the scalable golems in IH:B. Yeah, if we assume that spells and class features don't grant increased quintessence/divinity/etc. unless they specifically state they do, things don't really get out of hand. So Cosmic Descryer wouldn't advance all your Vrocks...

Cosmic Descryer lets you throw extra HD onto things you could get with Summon Monster, Elemental Swarm, etc., it doesn't let you summon anything you want. Likewise, Gate doesn't let you screw around with anything that's some flavor of deity, which is almost anything to begin with... so it...

Hey UK! Its a pleasure to talk to you. Progress levels beyond the ninth? Hmmm. Assuming that you agree with the usual assessment of PL 6 (Fusion Age), PL 7 (Gravity Age) and PL 8 (Fusion Age), how would you rate them, and would you agree in the assessment of PL 9 being people having basically...

Nice slice of references, there. So can these Bisects/Atomic Demons be mastered, at least potentially, by a high epic Cosmic Descryer's Greater Planar Binding?

Er... well, I wouldn't really argue otherwise. My main experience with epic level gaming has been level 30-50, pre-IH stuff, to be honest. I haven't much analyzed anything past level 60-70. If you're going to be a high level magic user, not focused on shapeshifting into a better melee...

This is really, really awesome. I was wondering WTF the bisects were when I first read IH. I have wanted playable cyberdemons and such from the point I first ran into them in Doom.

I disagree. But first, I'd point out that I feel psionic characters have the biggest advantage in Ascension, with epic overchannel letting them double their manifester level (at the mere mere price of 2d8 damage per overchanneling level...). However, what causes me an incessant amount of...

Hey all. So, having been a long time IH fan, I've finally started running a campaign which will incorporate both Immortals Handbook and d20 past, modern, and future content... the latter 3 are in terms of equipment only. After converting things like mechs and starships to GPs, the math seems...
