Look here: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20040525a That has messed up the whole polymorph spell chain...(OK, it was messed up before, but now the Sage brings some new rules into the game!)...nice! We're using Wild Shape from Masters of the Wild. Works fine!

I'm not sure about the rules, but IIRC, the paladin has to make a ride check, if he and his mount want to attack in the same round.

Spell Turning is a quite effective protection for a wizard against Greater Dispelling. But can ST protect itself against Dispel Magic and similar effects? Since ST turns only spells targeted on the caster, it shouldn't turn Greater Dispelling directed at ST, because the spell is targeted...

In my appartement, we use an old "enlargeable" kitchen table. It is quite worn down after over 30 years of use (cold coke and beer left their marks...), but still good for RPG. It is made of pine wood, about 2x1 meters in size. It is a bit small for a five-headed group, but the DM has a small...

Undead creatures are powered by negative energy. According to the DW description, the spell should also protect against the touch of a ghost or spectre, or the touch of a dread wraith (it deals 2d6 damage plus Con drain on a failed save). I wouldn't consider a ghost's Horrific Appearance...

Yeah, they are back in black!

Consider the options. The AD&D Complete Druid handbook has a lot of them. Some are usable in 3.x... Yep, and where is now the problem? You have four alignments at your choice, not counting the evil ones: N, LN, CN, NG. That's an improvement of three more options than just one in AD&D times...

I've rules IMC that Detect Magic (and as a consequence, AS and GAS) can't detect illusions. The only way to detect illusion is to interact with them and make a save or to use True Seeing. Invisibility (and the greater version) has See Invisibility, Invisibility Purge and Blindsight as an...

From the SRD about Detect Magic: As AS is linked to DM, AS can be foiled in the same way as DM can. The enemy is within a Forbiddance, an unhallowed area or a Dimensional Lock and he is invisible? Rule that AS may detect the stronger auras but the weaker (like Invisibility in this case) are...

The hook: The party moved after some small adventures in the Heartlands in Faerûn to Tethyr during its civil war. They got involved in the war and after a while, they were well respected for bringing peace to a region in Tethyr. Other DMs continued the story or sent the party on other missions...

Selected Other. Sometimes I like to be the DM (especially when I got an "evil" idea :] ), but sometimes it is just funny to kick some monster's or BBEG's @$$...druidic shifters rule :D

The wieldskill spell is (after PGtF rules) restricted to clerics of Gond. A twined delayed blast fireball is a level 11 spell, IIRC (DBF is level 7, twined +4).

Yeah, but sometimes the dice don't favor you. We had a battle about 30 to 40 ft away from the camp. The sentry sounded an alarm when some zentarim guys tried to sneak into the camp during full-moon night (the sentry was a deepwood sniper with maxed out spot skill...). Most sleeping PCs woke...

Or MM2? ELH? BoVD??? :heh: Anyway, aren't tojanidas marine creatures? ;)

I gave the PHB and DMG to a beginner in a new group when 3.5 was in the shops. It helped at least for a basic understanding of the game (I hope so). ;) Still have the 3.0 MM, though.

Cool stuff, keep going :)

Perhaps you can point out that all the so-called "rules" in the 3.5 core books are just guidelines. IIRC, there is something about "rules" and DMing at the beginning of the DMG. I have the same problem with rule discussions, but fortunately, the players agree quite quickly that a session is for...

Last year (was it really last year?) I DMed the group through the ToEE, monster stats were updated to 3.0. The module was used to test our homebrewed D&D rules. The group consists of a bard, a druid, a paladin and a rogue/fighter (All at level 4 or so at the beginning). While most of the...

The Phantom Fungus remembers me somehow of a plant mech...Never used that monster, it looks just stupid.

As a DM, I always have some trouble with teleporting PCs. But on the other hand, you have to be creative as a DM to "protect" your plot from some nasty spells, abilities and so on. Teleport is used IMC as written in the 3.5 PHB. I'd like to change it to the AD&D version but that would end in a...
