I've run a d20 modern game, with conversions from V is for Victory and Wierd Wars piled into it. The game looks fun by itself, but I like the d20 modern classes so much that I couldn't help using it instead. Also, a book for d20 modern, blood and relics, is coming out rather soon and I think...

My Dm a few years ago was a geology major in college and currently works for the forest service. Many a game we ended up with discussions about botany and rock formations... ~~Brandon

I agree with Samnell. The elves in LotR were aloof. ~~Brandon

Hey, I've played the GR shaman, and came to the conclusion that I could have just played a druid. If they are in love with the idea of a a shaman, allow them to take the spirit feats, or even perhaps the skills (2 of the 4 new skills I like). It is more of a matter about how the DM chooses to...

I have to disagree and say that I like that Martin's books will be translated to RPG form, but I have to say I would have liked to see it be through WotC rather than a different publisher. I thought for sure WotC would pick it up since there was a second article coming. Oh well, all we can do...

Yes yes, I happen to be one of those people who own ALL of the complete books. I even own the necromancers one just to finish out the collection. But I thought the groupings of books they did already (sword and fist, etc) were SUPPOSED to be the complete books. Why did we get short changed the...

Assign ELs to roleplaying situations. When fighting humans, give them levels. Your good to go in two easy steps. ~~Brandon

Kansas is going all the way. You heard it here first. I'm a terp fan, though. It hurts, oh the agony. ~~Brandon

I'm an advanced solar. Perhaps with epic levels. *winks* Actually, I'm a gnoll. Rough facial hair and I love a good steak. ~~Brandon

The DMG has it best, I think. Don't roll, just decide, but it helps meet all the basics. After that, flesh things out, like some of the important npcs, the surrounding area, any spots of interest in the city, and a sketch of the map. ~~Brandon

halfling rogue Str 12 Dex 9 Con 16 Int 13 Wis 13 Cha 8 Rather fit and intellegent, he lacks the dexterity and charisma of a typical halfling. Never the most agile of his family. He will never be a good stealth rogue because of his -1, and his charisma hurts him from using all of his...

It scares me to no end to let a player hold that much power. If I were to allow it, I think I would be the one dictating when and not when it could be used. ~~Brandon

Its no big deal. Use alternatively :) ~~Brandon

DiTerlizzi by far. By faaaar. ~~Brandon

I agree. Without the poker for spell power and the cards for iniative, the game lacks the flare and old west feel it once had. Pick up the old books. Its worth it. ~~Brandon

Monk's don't have to have the asian feel, nor do that have to be skewed in a certain way like this post. Don't get me wrong, I like th post, but in our games, monks are actually monks from mideavil Europe. IE Scribes, and very well trained martially and with the staff as well as some holy and...

I agree about the half elf being a bad, statwise, race. There is another thread floating around that says along the same lines. anyway, I always play human. It just turns out that way. I like the idea of the normal mundane fighting against a world of chaotic magic and monsters. That line seems...

Confrontation minis are the best ones I have ever seen, hands down, but as a college student, I'm far too poor to be able to afford them. Get discount Chainmail minis, if not go shopping in a GW store. Thats what we use. ~~Brandon

I'm personally a big fan of "King's chessmen" and just call them mecha or something for the technical term. ~~Brandon

I think the age has become younger, not older, that people start gaming. I played basic, and then I played 2e. It took us years to use all the nuiances of 2e. Rules made little to sense, and they were not standardized so it took forever to get all of the rules in line. 3e is easy to follow and...
