JPL, are you anywhere near JPL? If so, I'd love to get into that game... sounds like a blast!

(edit away a double post...)

I'm currently playing a samurai of high birth, wandering in a foriegn land without proper attendants. He uses prestidigitation to keep his appearances proper.

In my campaign, all the "modern" churches teach that burial with grave goods is a form of greed, that it robs you still living family of things they may need for life to continue and that it shows a lack of faith in the Gods by implying that the dead need to bring these things along with them...

I have a question, what is the size of the city? This looks like something I might be able to use, but I have already added certain details to the city where it would be useful, I need to know how much I would need to change...

Who mentioned epic? I was talking aout a character starting an "advanced" class at first level, representing a devotion since childhood geared toward mastering a particular class. To expand on the example I mentioned, take the fanboy interpretation of ninja... raised by a ninja clan, the ninja...

Rogues are the best class for playing a noble, including the snoby court noble. Go back and actually look closely at the class skill list, is there anything missing that a noble needs? And the rogue has the skill points to get those skills too!

That was a great link, I'm finding a lot of useable stuff for the Pulp Modern game I am planning! Thanks!

On intermittant Friday nights, I game at a club out here in North Hollywood. Sometimes Modern, sometimes D&D, occasionally the GM makes it up as he goes... Several of the folks like Modern because of the guns, we have a couple of folks that don't like it because of the guns. :rolleyes: A...

Picture this: Gloves that treat the shuriken the same as bows do arrows. Grant the ammunition bonuses to hit, add any elemental effects, etc.

As others have said, I could not vote, there was no choice between 5+ PrC's each and a firm limit of one, maximum. I would permit a character to take more than one if it fit the character. On the other hand, most of the folks I game with generally do not look far enough ahead in planing their...

Check out the web site, there is stuff there that can help with figuring out a lot of that stuff. Like I found a recommended way to use the life history for other games, like D&D, easy to port it from there into starwars as well. The boards there are fairly nice as well. Mechanically the...

The 3.5 DR makes the problem of not having the right kind of weapon much less of a problem. While they added in all those nifty materials, they also reduced the amount of damage reduced without those materials. In other words, that iron golum has gone from 50/+3 down to a mere 15/adamantine...

Wolverines understand the concept of bathing.

When I am looking at a new book, I consider lots of well balenced feats a big plus. I consider skills a minus, unless the setting absolutely needs the new skills.

How do you figure that? The character could add one level of anything and still be okay. It is only if the levels are out of balance by more than one level that there is a penalty. A brd1/clr1/drd1/ex-mnk1/rog1/sor1/wiz2 of any race is still fine, with no penalties to earned xp. Now, if the...

So, I guess the first thing I need to do is actually read the PsiHB. :o

Spell Chains were reprinted in Wizard's Spell Compendium, vol. 4. While it certainly adds flavor to sorcerers, I don't see any need to give benefits from it. IMC, most books of spells are based on the spell chains, with the spell descriptions interspersed with theoretical discusions.

Here is where your logic breaks. If a zombie cn do it, anyone can. It is possible to make a "partial action" charge, as the PHB explanes in the description of charge; you move only up to a standard move (not a double). The language of charge already spells out that no other movement is...

Unless you like rapid character mortality, forget CoC. It may be great stuff for doing Lovecraftian role-playing, but for a modern thriller -- action/adventure type game it will kill the PC's much too quickly. I'd say, go with d20M, skip the Urban Arcana book, look into Blood and Fist (if...
