    [semi-OT] Question for Australian gamers

    Adelaide, its a long way from anywhere, but hard to say who's down there as Ive lost contact a few years ago with a friend who lived there that was a roleplayer. This might help- http://members.ozemail.com.au/~tarim/rpg/calendar.htm A list of con's in Australia, theres also some gaming groups...

    Weapon: Scourge stats? and what is it made from?

    Exotic melee, 20gp, 1D8, x2 crit, 2ib weight- damage: Slashing Gets a +2 bonus to disarm with it. Not a bad little weapon, better than some cheesy whip-dagger and for beating down the tax collectors :)

    Adventures from Songs

    Well, they are the same blokes that used to have Michael Moorecock onstage for guest appearances, the song was named after/influenced by Elric's Stormbringer. Im showing my age... I'll shutup! My last character Ive been making up has a number of musical influences, I think it was either 'South...

    How/where to make/buy a large magnetic whiteboard with grid?

    El-cheapo way would be to buy a sheet of galvanised steel about 2mm thick and cover it with about 5 layers of ozone raping, non-biodegradable enamel paint, then get some plastic poster holders or mount it in a cheap picture frame (so no one gets slashed to pieces on the edges). Get some...

    Epic Questions

    I think its been known to do it on a number of occassions, also like Ive been also on occassion to call it a 'steaming pile of excrement', 'work of 1000 bastard maniacs' and when something really neat, (like epic spellcasting) gets borked beyond belief, 'more greif than a teenage NIN fan'. But...

    Epic Questions

    Its maybe not the best trying to work out a 30HD critter off the bat. An elder Titan's CL is about that if I remember. hmm, ok lets look at something a wee bit smaller. Say, an Erinyes. At the top there it says- Hit Dice: 9D8+bits And a bit further down it says- Level Adjustment: +7 Now, as a...

    Do ranged attacks break the hit point mechanic?

    Having crawled out of a couple of car wrecks, several motorbike accidents and one or 2 pub brawls myself, then spending a few years in an emergency service dragging people out of wrecks, fire, flood and other disasters. I can safely say that the human body can soak up a surprising amount of...

    Poll - Dr. Dan's question - Which forums do you read?

    General, D&D Rules, House Rules & D20 System is about all I bother with, I used to post a bit in Art but it was hard to get anything critical or useful out of artwork I put up so I dont bother anymore. Which is odd for a messageboard, usually theres always someone ready to club you for damn near...

    Rewarding good actions

    Aye, Im inclined to agree with you completely. Even if you just take it from a purely game mechanic point of veiw all you get is screwed over as a good character, its tough to roleplay as well and its much, much easier to be a 'fence sitting' nuetral in both respects. As a player Ive seen most...

    Alignment and a Prisoner...

    If you can spare the time under a Zone of Truth to see if she'd honestly repent then, yeah maybe save a soul. But, it is an evil cleric and they are more or less the representatives of their god for good or evil. Dont think for a minute that just because some gimps let her go that she wont be...

    Vote for your favorite original D&D monster!

    Had to vote for the old Rot Grub as youve left out the wee beastie that used to put any hardcore adventurer on their back gasping, choking and after some time, dead as a maggot. The Throat Leech. I had an assassin many years ago who kept them as 'pets' and dropped them into peoples drinks he...

    Help My Campaign: Gluttony!

    The Famine Spirit out of MM2 is probably a bit tough at CR19, but you could always drop him down a couple of hit dice to match your needs, as with the rest of him. Quite a cool baddie I thought.

    Underdark Art Gallery

    Guess it could be one of those deep orcs from races of faerun? But its not a good guess... Some nice art there though.

    DR 10/salt

    It'd be a pretty nifty idea for a lot of the oozes, slimes and jellys, not to mention Conan style gigantic, acid spitting slugs and maybe we should see the return of such cute creatures like the 'Throat Leech' (hehe always a fav from long ago) Anyway, my first thoughts for a set DR would be...

    Best RPG books any system, any publisher

    SLA Industries by Nightfall games, I think it first came out in about 1990-91. Full of beautiful illustrations, background history and a pretty damn tough game to handle mentally, its heavily influenced by Thatcher's rein in England in terms of its bleak outlook, drug abuse, sex crimes, media...

    So what do you envision for 4.0E D&D?

    For someone to "un-bugger" the multiclassing rules so we can have player characters and villans that are versitile, rather than just boring bloody specialists to be effective with the D20 system. That would make me happy. It might not make you happy. But I dont care ;)

    Drow Name Phonics?

    From a person who personally loathes the work RJS does Im trying not to be real harsh, but you could become the anti-drizzit and call yourself, in the great tradition of zzzzz's Bazza Just give him a cricket bat, take the Drunken Master PrC and flip out and smack bastards in the mouth when you...

    Your favorite "villain" race and why?

    I guess GG's villans all through the GDQ super module where some of the most memorable, jez, my characters L32 and the bastards still pop up from time to time... I really should get around to soulcaging a few more of them instead of just throwing them in a portable hole and rupturing it. Giants...
