    Outrage at prices

    I don't think there is any one reason for me but a confluence of them. I'm an older gamer and have a good job so I can often afford gaming products but still the price bothers me. This is going to be freeform but I'll try to list a few of those reasons. Way too many books seem to be little...

    Blatant abuse of the five foot step?

    Adding to my reply above I think a good compromise for this situation would be to allow the player to take the action, but give them full fall damage and make them prone so they have to spend a move action (with AoO) the following round. That's only if someone feels a compromise is nessisary...

    Players misplacing PC equipment

    Sounds like the infamous halfling theif Fubbly McQuickfingers has struck again! I would have the equiptment lost or gone for the simple reason that the players seem to have been carrying it around without anyone bothering to write it on their character sheet or take the weight penalties. If it...

    What feats should PCs automatically get?

    I've considered giving everyone the Combat Expertise Feat for free because it just doesn't make sense to me that people are trained to attack but not defend themselves. Since the benefit is tied to your BaB it's already balanced for each class as far as the ability itself goes. The only...

    DM's and Rules Lawyers - How Would You Rule this Deadly Situation?

    The problem seems to be the Steed isn't specifically a friendly or an opponent so I say treat it as an obstacle. This means a tumble or jump to get past it or spending 2 squares of movement per it's square you move through as with any object. Unfortunatly for the player this only leaves...

    Blatant abuse of the five foot step?

    I think this is one of those quirks that is just going to have to be up to the GM. All there really seems to be here is a symantics argument and I can see justifying a ruling either way. This really seems more like a variation on going prone to me than a 5' step, they're just falling off the...

    D&D 3.x Deflect Arrows feat (3.5)

    As far as I know you are correct, there is no reflex save now. However you also can't do more than 1 per round. It appears you automatically deflect a missile each round.

    Eberron Campaign in Atlanta Looking for players

    We're right down the street from you on Valleybrook Road, right by the North Dekalb Mall. With the holiday's here we'll probably only work in 2 sessions before NY Eve so we should still have some openings. It's a 4 person group right now but I'd like to go up to 6.

    [MnM] Neat Adventure Hook

    You're right on the Jersey thing. There is a place in the sourcebook they forgot to scrub references from when they converted it to a generic setting. They call one of the roads (mistakenly) The Garden State Parkway. WooT!!!
