    D&D 3.x [3.5E] Will Warriors be on equal footing with casters?

    I think you misunderstood him. The point is, even without ranks in diplomacy you can still roleplay. Just because you don't have as much (or any) chances to succeed as the minmaxed social animal does not impede you from having fun roleplaying. Matter of fact, seeing a barbarian trying to court a...

    Fantasy Sex Roleplaying Game Releases October 2003

    Myself, I'd rather buy a book dealing with sex in a fantasy world than yet another elf-book, or yet another monster book, or yet another prestige classes book, or yet another alternate magic spells/system book.

    D&D 3.x [3.5E] Will Warriors be on equal footing with casters?

    What is "Four levels of improved crit."? Improved critical does not stack with itself, it applies to another weapon if taken a second time.

    New haste on WotC website!

    I like it as well. An extra attack at the highest BAB is always nice, no matter the level, and imho right for a 3rd level spell that afetcs the whole party. The added speed and attack/ac7save bonuses are just icing on the cake.

    Is coup de grace a broken rule?

    I almost forgot my number 1 solution for such problems: Talk with the players, explain that such tactics are no fun for you, and ask them to alter their use of coup de grace - and casually mention that the deity of combat could start to give all such "victims" a "fair chance for a fair fight".

    Is coup de grace a broken rule?

    There is the alarm spell. Guard animals like Dogs can scent even invisible intruders. Doors may be locked, and have an alarm set - could be something primitive like a bell on a string that gets pulled when the door opens.

    Confirmed - Rangers get d8 HD in 3.5e.

    Isn't anyone bothered by the possibility that, with 6 skill points, good BAB, martial weapon proficiencies, spells, combat styles and modified special abilities, the 3.5 ranger could end up making the rogue obsolete?

    When players don't show, turn to The Matrix

    My only contact with the matrix came in a Shadowrun campaign I played in some time back. The campaign ran for close to a year until our PCs were "unplugged" and found themselves in a SF-campaign in space.

    Military Gamers

    Here in Switzerland we have mandatory military service for able-bodied male citizens (although you can opt for civil service in hospitals etc. if you do not want to become a soldier), and the army itself uses a militia model similar, iirc, to the US national guard, with yearly 3-week refresher...

    Best D20 non-WotC Campaign Setting?

    I own the core books from Kalamar, and while I do not currently DM a campaign there - I run two heavily modified FR campaigns - I have to add that I really like the static setting - you don't have to deal with an advancing timeline of events laid out by the publishers but can start your own...

    Monster Books vs. Do-It-Yourself Monsters?

    What he said. With the addition, that I usually modify the monsters taken from the books to better suit the party's capability.

    Elf or Human , whos better?

    well, you only speak both common and elven if you were raised by people who speak both. My half-elven bard was raised by her human father, her mother having died at birth, so she does not speak elven.

    Are PrC's too powerful?

    Re: Re: too powerful You could also tell me that you have an archer, or a mounted knight, or a swashbuckler, or a noble cleric.

    Are PrC's too powerful?

    I think Prestige Classes can be too powerful for campaign. In one of my campaigns I have been looking for a fitting prestige class for my bard for a long time. I finally gave up looking for "the right Prestige Class" when I found a Prestige Class that had the flavor I wanted, and the Character...

    Elf or Human , whos better?

    Well, as far as core rules only are concerned, the Monster Manual has some interesting wordings when describing goblin and elven tactics. The basically same tactics are called "cowardly" when employed by goblins and "smart" when employed by elves. Hiding in the foilage and sniping at the enemy...

    (OT) What to do with an insane cat?

    All went well. The cat, wrapped in a blanket, was only protesting orally the treatment, and did not use its claws or fangs. Even after escpaing once it did not resort to violence when it was wrapped again. A little angel of a cat.

    (OT) What to do with an insane cat?

    You guys really make me feel apprehension about helping my sister treat her tomcat. She needs someone to hold him while she washes out his eyes.
