    BSG - Who are the Final Five?

    There is speculation that the Five are in fact the Lords of Kobol. Even in a monotheistic religion, there is the concept of divine messengers/apostles/prophets. Whether the "one god" is the same God as on Earth remains to be seen, but it would be an interesting tie-in (that the Cylons share the...

    BSG - Who are the Final Five?

    Oh yeah. It is to Kate Vernon's credit that I loathed her character so much. :p That would be quite the shock...

    BSG - Who are the Final Five?

    SPOILER WARNING . . . I'm creating a new thread since the scope exceeds one single episode. :) You surely have an opinion on the identity of the Final Five Cylons? Pick 5 names and tell us why you think these lowly humans are in fact enlightened Cylons. If you don't know who they are, check...

    On the State of Digital Aids for D+D/D20/OGL

    Perhaps it is no wonder I took a very long sabbatical from coding any more tools. :D There is no easy answer to why there aren't more tools that satisfy what the community needs. A bit of everything that makes up the answer has been mentionned here: WotC licensing, a standardized set of rules...

    Epic spellcasting: Is it really feasible?

    You are correct for the prototype version, that which is downloadable. But the full product shipped to EN Publishing includes a modification system also using metamagic effects as a base. A lot of things have been tweaked in the "full" version, including the formulas for balance purposes. It is...

    Epic spellcasting: Is it really feasible?

    I had a prototype system back in 2004 here. I updated the system later in 2004. We've been using this system with great success since then. I submitted a manuscript to EN Publishing in early 2005 that includes updated rules and hundreds of spells, including those from the SRD converted to a...

    Do magic missiles glow?

    IIRC, in games, the BG series, ToEE, NWN/NWN2 all showed magic missile as different effects.

    Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords

    Since I started the thread, I'll hijack myself slightly. :p When I saw the screenshots for SotS, I said to myself "wow, it looks like Homeworld". Well, it is in fact developed by people who worked on Homeworld: Cataclysm. :D I'll keep an eye on it for when I will take a break from GalCiv2...

    Riding Characters

    Okay OKAY! It was doubiousness, not snarkyness. :D I did a search, and this is what I found which is later than 2004: Combat - Humanoid Mounts Feats - Can a goblin riding an ogre use Mounted Combat to defend the ogre? Skills - Intelligent Mounts + Handle Animal? I'll discuss it with the...

    Riding Characters

    Hrm... Thanks for the input, but treating the half-orc as a mount? I dunno, opens up a whole can of worms if they choose to stretch it with mounted combat feats... I would rather treat the gnome as flying 5ft off the ground, with movement that matches the half-orc until he jumps off. Makes...

    Riding Characters

    IOC we have two players that are a team. One is a largish (but still Medium sized) half-orc, and on his shoulders rides a gnome character (alternatively, on one shoulder). When in combat, the gnome jumps down into one of the adjacent squares. However, it becomes tricky when the party is...

    [Jan] What are you playing?

    GalCiv2, not bad. The grognard voice in my head had me reinstall Steel Panthers and have a go at classic wargaming. :D And dare I say, again, Eve Online?

    My first LCD

    Well, there is a difference in measurement. I replaced a 21" Viewsonic P815 with a 20" Viewsonic VP201b. I could not believe the viewing area was the same, both because of the difference in labelled size and the actual size of the LCD (it's tiny! :eek: ). But sure enough, after putting the...

    Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords

    OMG, a person did indeed write a GalCiv2 FAQ on gamefaqs.com. Very amazing, I can't imagine the hours spent on this! :eek: *reading*

    Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords

    I caved in and downloaded the game last night. I love digital downloads, since you can't shop on Christmas day! :D Anyway, I started out with a small generated galaxy to get the hang of things. I am still trying to get a handle on all the options, there are so many of them! :uhoh: The...
