    Unexpectedly Useful Items

    erm... i'm surprised that no one has actually corrected you yet, but it's about how uses a Towel has. (though it can be used for a blanket also).

    Scout's Skirmish Attacks

    there's a feat in (complete adventurer?), i think it's named "dual strike" for dual weilding characters, which allows them to take a single attack (at penalty) with both hands in a round during which they have moved. though i think that's the best that you're goign to get without going psionic...

    Moving from D&D 3.0 to 3.5, what should I know?

    all of the PRCs in your splatbooks (sword & fist, defenders of the faith, etc...) have changed slightly and moved to the complete series of splatbooks. other than that, it's mostly just some hardcore mechanical changes, and better explanaion/revision of combat rules. i suggest going over the...

    Creating a new character after a TPK - I need some inspiration

    so, take a level of rogue first (so that you ge the skill point hit), then multiclass to barbarian for 2nd (handily avoiding the illiteracy issue) and then continue on with rogue at 3rd. the spring attack line was suggested so that you won't get hit too often. i'd also arrange your stats way...

    The Awl Pike

    yes, actualy, the ear spoon is mentioned in the article =p there are about 10 new poles, as well as new polearm specific feats, and discussion of the old poles (and where to find them) as well. pretty good article, imo. but i've always loved having lots of choices on how to poke people from...

    Creating a new character after a TPK - I need some inspiration

    in the campaign i'm in right now which is rather combat heavy, i'm playing a Kingdoms of Kalamar Class, the Infiltrator, which is very rogue-ish. the big difference? increased movement speed. howbout combining rogue and barbarian levels, get the spring attack feat, and be the...

    i've been very busy, havn't been able to email folks files yet, and my apologies on that. it's just a low priority and i'm in the middle of finals. i will get to it, i swear.

    Your favorite class and race and other things.

    1) human fighter. 2) any race is ok. sorcerers are easy, fighters are easy. classes that have to prep spells, or which require massive ammount of skill useage, can be very difficult for new players to really understand... 3) polearm + mobilty + spring attack + combat reflexes + high dex...

    New Core Classes: Love them or Leave them?

    generally i would allow their use if i felt that they filled a niche, and i had reviewed them thoroghly. for instance: though i havn't had time to review the favored soul, i like the niche it fills, as there is no fully spontaneous divine caster in the phb. on a personal level, i would think...

    Floating Fortress Map (images)

    i did also use the DD2 addon, but there's really not that much in it that can't be done with straight cc2. the only real issue that i can see is that you wouldn't have the symbol catalog. however, it wouldn't be too hard to make up the symbols that i used here (doors and stairs). sure, rumin...

    Round V is OVER

    for anyone with a reach attack, or any high dex fighter, this feat makes tons of sense. in fact, most of my fighting types will take this every time, rather than power attack or combat expertise.

    Round V is OVER

    TRAMPLE and RIDE - BY - ATTACK ...for a few reasons: 1) mounted combat rules are screwed up enough as is. 2) as written they are bloody useless 3) for the logical part: these feats are things that the ANIMAL should know, rather than the rider - you do have to train a horse to do certain...

    Floating Fortress Map (images)

    first off, i've edited the top so that the picture shows the proper "second basement" instead of "third basement. finally... Suna, i've already started working on something that resembles suggeston number 2 there, so i'll keep working on that ;). and i'll see what i can come up with on the...

    Round IV is OVER

    heavy armor proficiency i'm jumping on the armor proficiency bandwagon here - this feat is bloody useless. any class that should consider wearing heavy armor already gets the proficiency, so why bother?

    Which miniature company?

    having been bored at work (a common condition for me), i've found a fun resource for you, in terms of finding minis. http://theminiaturespage.com/man/ it links to a directory of more than 700 different companies in the miniatures buisness. honestly, i'm not seeing much that's REALLY useful...

    Which miniature company?

    honestly i havn't found anything better for straight fantasy minis than reaper's line. and it's annoying the crap out of me! dont' get me wrong, i like reaper, but there are a lot of other things i'd like to see going on in the minis that i buy.

    Dark Sun Spellcasting

    i would check out the official conversion to dark sun at http://www.athas.org before actually running this. yes, they have changed the system around so that perservers and defilers are balanced with eachother. a lot of people complain about that, but in terms of game mechanics it does make...
