    Aren't stereotypes wonderful?

    Would it be okay for a commercial to portray women as clueless, shallow, disgusting or just plain dimwitted? Then why is it okay with men? White men, particularly.

    Boardgames: Diplomacy!

    I like either the texture or the border. Much clearer, especially with regard to Denmark.

    Is anyone else ticked off at "core" splash books?

    Actually, with Mystic Theurge, your turning and domain abilities for cleric are stuck at 3rd level.

    Game Effects of Dragon Eyes?

    No change, or possibly +1 Intimidate. There are all kinds of freaky looking people in a D&D universe. Having dragon eyes couldn't be THAT out of place. Maybe a penalty to disguise, and some pretty hefty penalties if in an area where the locals don't tolerate weirdos (but of course the dwarf...

    the 6th level spell that destroyed our party (Acid Fog)

    Screw up. Your gear is a part of you, it is not an "object" in game terms. Objects are unattended items (or bodies). So your gear takes no damage as long as you are still alive. If you die in the fog, well then your items will be eaten pretty quickly.

    You might want to change the title of the thread to call attention to the replacement player.

    Anyone use Dvorak?

    I do not use the Dvorak layout, but intend to switch someday. The main advantage isn't really typing speed, it's reduced strain. In the qwerty layout, your fingers are constantly reaching off the home keys. The Dvorak puts the most used keys on the home row, meaning your fingers have to travel...

    My name over there is Abstraction. The timing sounds fine to me.

    Warlock question!

    I've been seeing this a lot lately. A Warlock cannot use Sudden Still Spell with a spell-like ability. Sorry, but a Warlock is truly, truly screwed by grappling.

    John Cooper's Revenge - MM3 errata

    There's errors like: this monster should have +7 to Jump, not +6. Then there's errors like: The Halfling Outrider doesn't need a BAB. I think Wizards has had a wakeup call about the grievous errors. The rest, well, it would be nice if they weren't there but I certainly doubt those errors impact...

    CA/Carc: Initiate of the Sevenfold Veil

    What Amy said. Balanced for a PC, possibly horribly overbalanced for a bad guy.

    Complete arcane, good new info-worth while? or beating dead horse,worthless?

    Well, I don't have a problem with other people using it. It's just that one, it doesn't fit the style of my game and two, it's awfully complex class to have in for just one or two people in an entire country (which is again because they don't fit).

    Shouldn't Prestige Classes be done differently?

    Let's say I have about twenty organizations, guilds, secret societies and cults I want to stat out. Not a large number, really. These are groups whose membership is fairly open to different classes. So I craft 4 prestige classes each, with each prestige class being a 5 or 10 level class. That's...

    1st level Adventures...I hate 'em, and I need 'em!

    I suggest doing the murder mystery thing. Big warning, though, make each clue lead very clearly to the next clue. Do not count on the players being clever and figuring things out. This is one of the few kinds of games that it is okay to lead the players by the nose. One, because they are low...

    Complete Adventurer vs. Complete Divine

    Saying it that way sounds like shoplifting. You are being a good little Citizen, aren't you?
