Well, it seems to be up. Lots of improvements to the Powers section, I see (yay!), and theres some rudimentry Portfolio things (with a lot of blank spaces and examples of enthusiastic copy/paste). I'm a little concerned about the "Double Portfolio" stuff. I'm assuming it's a copy paste thing...

Let's consult the master of game balance, David Sirlin. He writes articles on game design in general, and video game design in specific, and COMPETITIVE video game design in more specific, but his words on balance work no matter what the game or medium or genre. Here's the definition he...

Well, by a literal reading, it seems, it wouldn't provide "Cold Resistance 10, Fire Resistance 10, Sonic Resistance 10, etc..." It provides "any attack that deals acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic damage" resistance 10. Which means that if the attack deals, say, 5 cold, 5 acid, 5 sonic...

Song and Silence has "Outlaw of the Crimson Road" which has a very different feel. Other than "Dread Pirate", I see nothing in Complete Adventurer of this sort of ilk...

It's not d20, but if you want a Collectable Trading Card Game, you could always try Critical Miss's Pimp, which more than covers the topic and all the gameplay you might want.

Unfortunately, no... just my local campaign notes and the stuff on the wiki, unfortunately. We'd have to get a new set of characters anyway though... I think with Ascention out (or mostly out, anyway), I'd be better to run with a "No ELH-style epic magic item" rule, plus the 4 artifact rule...

You know, if you also used U_K's 4 artifact wealth system, it might actually work out. Use two artifacts for defense, two for offense. At Great Wyrm level, that'd easily more than double your armor class, grant an always active miss chance, maybe have some automatic weapon blocking going on...

Ah yes. I'm kinda nostalgic for that old game too... I wonder if I should spill the beans now, or alternatively, attempt to restart the game, since your questioning has caused me to go find my old campaign notes again. Esspecially since character creation is five thousand times easier with...

I made a wiki page to start statting out all the epic monsters you listed for the Throne of Orcus campaign here. I've got a couple of the statblocks made out. In particular, I just wanted to display my stats for Klavikus, who I made slightly more powerful than described by giving him full...

let me emphasized the d20npc wiki, located in my signature. If you want to play at high levels, the wiki is the way to go. It is the online resource requested above that contains advanced monsters, statted out high-level NPCs with class levels, and other such things. And it just keeps...

I'm not looking to start up the "can monks take Improved Natural Attack" thread again. Assuming that the ruling in your group is that they can, does that also mean you can take BOTH Holy Ki Strike AND Sanctify Natural Attack from the Book of Exalted Deeds, and have the two effects stack (for...

Upper Krust has a nice set of formula to derive the ECL of any given creature. Using version 5 of his ECL document, he gives the following ECLs for dragons. The first number is the result of the formula with all factors. This involves fractional ECLs, as you might imagine. The second number...

Not reasonable in combat, and there's no rational given for why anyone would want to do this. Doesn't work. I can't think of any rational that would make someone do this in the middle of combat. This would fall under "unreasonable" pretty easily I think. Suggestion isn't a sleep spell. Even...

Are you going to be using U_K's absolution house rules for this tournament? I would think it'd be a good idea...

Okay then, try this suggestion: "We have just cast a spell on you and your friends that would shunt you elsewhere and replace you with a doppleganger, but you and only you have succeeded in resisting this spell. The spell will return your friends as soon as you kill the dopplegangers, so kill...

Complete Divine The following feats are from Complete Divine except where otherwise noted. Divine Healer Prereqs: Heal 8 ranks, ability to turn/rebuke, Con 21, Epic * Augment Healing * Divine Metamagic: Reach Spell * Fast Healing (SRD) * Reach Spell * Sacred Boost * Sacred Healing Wildshape...

Complete Warrior Feat Packages All the below feats come from Complete Warrior exept where otherwise noted. Divine Archer Prereqs: Point Blank Shot Package * Improved Mounted Archery or Zen Archery * Improved Rapid Shot * Ranged Disarm * Ranged Pin * Ranged Sunder * Sharp-Shooting Divine...

One of the greatest boons towards making high level characters in Ascension was the addition of feat packages. Instead of having to remember feat chains and having to think of individual feats to give my 200th HD abberation or whatever, I can just plop in these feat packages... and surprisingly...

By the way, I just want to chip in with a comment about this picture that was linked earlier. Compare the grip that kid has on his sword with the grip this person has on a medium sized katana (one handed, but the grip doesn't change that much one handed to two handed). Look at how the kid's...
