    Getting around antimagic PC's.

    Black blade of disaster used to cut through AM areas, maybe he could reserch a 7th level version that does less damage?

    I have a problem with a player!

    No one deserves to be insulted, guilt tripped or threatened over a game, least of all for what seemed a trivial occourance any mature person wouldnt exactly be offended by. Dont stand for it. He's obviously a bully and and immature idiot who no one needs to put up with.

    Epic or Near-epic prestige classes

    The link is here- http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ei/20030810a One of the more useful bits theyve put out for the ELH, guess we'll have to wait a bit more before they make the system work above lvl20...

    Gameisms...

    Just thought of another one we used to use quite a lot. "Find a Wall" Which was the preferred option for a certain CN wizard (now a sorcerer in 3.5) that used to use electricity a lot and was generally apathetic, especially when fighting demons... "Zaaaap" "Nothing happens" "Find a wall, let the...

    Shadowrun: sell it to me!

    While I havent played it for many years SR was probably the 1st real roleplaying game I ever started on and a little bit of 1E D&D. Well at the time we where sort of grungy punk and goth uni students so we felt at home in Shadowrun more than we did in D&D and to some degree I like it a lot...

    Star Wars(maps, apprentices, and other help needed)

    Starblazers. I remeber it as a kid and it rocked after school in the afternoons. A few years ago me and some mates saw it in a video store and hired it out... it sucked :D I think the Eclipse and the other ultra-big SD which was from that return of the emporer era (stuff that I personally...

    Star Wars(maps, apprentices, and other help needed)

    Well for your baddies they could have the alchemical Sith swords which do slightly less (base) damge than a lightsabre and they can dump DS points into them to really lay the smack down on jedi's or whoever else they happen to be beating up. Plus they can deflect blaster bolts and parry the same...

    Wasting skill points on 'background' skills

    Salute anyone that puts points into a good dirt skill :) Its a fairly realistic application, nobody from a common background in a pre-technology era should start without some basic skills to work, subsist or make a living for themselves. There isnt any dole out there for people that sit on...

    Do you have the stereotypical DnD "body type".

    180cm, 68kg. Tall, thin, pale, two legs, bad attitude... Niggling hip and shoulder problems mean I dont bother with anything real physical anymore and a bought of cancer shed about 15kg off me that never came back.

    Paladin Profession

    They make paladins with brains these days? Back in my day Intelligence was the dump stat :D Lots of things to do as a paladin. Convert pagan scum to the way of the one true god (yours) and being nice to the poor people. Charity work, youve got that charisma stat for more than leaning on a wall...

    Star Wars(maps, apprentices, and other help needed)

    For lightsabres you could go one of two ways. If your a combat light setting I'd suggest making the weapon a rapier type of weapon for a more refined and genteel environment, lower the damage down to D6's and maybe fiddle the crit level a bit. For a game where there is heavy combat I'd modify...

    Monk Feats: 6th level - Improved Trip or Improved Disarm?

    Either would work ok in combination with combat relexes, kick a weapon out of their hand and then knock them on their arse with the AoO attack, get another AoO to keep kicking them because their down... it all gets quite nasty really :D

    Why the D20 system has no merits and flaws system ?

    Im not talking about existing roleplayers, Im referring to the new batch of players comming into the system that dont really have much of an idea of advanced character development and playing in character. Sure, they'll have a good grasp of rules but will they do a 10-20 questions on character...

    Why the D20 system has no merits and flaws system ?

    After the recent morass of nerfings, dumpings and other sundry effects that "could be/is/maybe abused" and someone's idea out there in the D20 design team that it all must be "balanced" otherwise people will whine. Do you honestly think that they'd let such material out in the hands of...

    Gameisms...

    I think the term "Scalvage" was coined upon finding a large amount of broken stuff that might be worth something, to someone, somewhere and we loot it. Usually used in conjunction with broken spaceships and other vehicles and sometimes after someone fireballs/grenades a BBEG's opulent...

    Crazy Quotes from my Group....

    Scene: PC's have taken control of the security room of a pirate base hidden deep in a mountain on the planet Grunk. Tech Spec: oh! a 19, thats a total of 36 on my computer use score. GM: Well, youve got control of the lights, turbo lifts, doors and the security cameras. Tech Spec: Guess I'll...

    Identifying a high-level character

    Starwars D20 has a pretty good "Reputation" stat that increases as you go up in levels, and the Famous/Infamous feats to go with it as well are pretty cool in my opinion. Could easily be applied to some Knowledge skills as a modifier and add a few other modifiers as well for some really epic...

    [OT] Help Finding A Song

    Good choice I was going to say the same thing. 2nd choice would be Deadcandance's Chant of the Paladin or Song of Sophia
