    D&D 3.x Converting Psionics from 1ed to 3.5ed

    Not a PrC, a template! Create a template that gives a certain number of psi power points and a psi ability or two. Base it off a progression similar to that of the half-celestial to gain more pp's, attack/defense modes. As soon as I get a chance, I will play with some numbers for my 1st ed...

    Range Increments

    Unless you are dealing with variable air density (for example, an intervening mist or fog) why bother with a programmable calculator? The equations aren't all that difficult.

    Dr. Fu Manchu

    You know, I'll bet this whole process would be easier for me if I had my books up here instead of down in the car! At the moment, I'm thinking a couple of levels of Field Scientist, Lots of Mastermind, plenty of Smart and plenty of Charismatic. Add in a little bit of psionic ability for the...

    Hide - sniping?

    Where does it say that? I have heard it before, but I have not seen a reference to any actual rule.

    Help me create a weapon of mass destruction

    Having him discover it is no problem. If you've ever read the Fu Manchu stories, he has quite an enterage of brilliant scientists in his thrall. Hmm, just how well would P-7 do if scattered through out a building, say in the carpeting, or spread over the grass in an open field, with the proper...

    Help me create a weapon of mass destruction

    Ooohhh I like it. I'll be using that CsCl bit. I have a question about the Buckyballs, what does it take to make them? Could it reasonably appear in a 20's-ish pulp? "For the second phase of his dastardly plan, Dr. Fu Manchu had his henchmen place canesters of phlogeston -- 7 through out the...

    Urban Arcana Incantations

    Given the time factors and the difficulties involved, I don't think you need to worry about having too many incantations popped off in a single day. Strength wise, most of the incantations listed in the book are more like the spells from D&D that were above 5th level and therefore not available...

    Dr. Fu Manchu

    Ask and ye shall receive: http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=106181 I had not seen the comics, so far the only thing I have had access to has been the Sax Rohmer novels, and not all of them. :(

    Large creature vs. doorways

    In real life, a horse can fit through a doorway. I would not want to be riding that horse when it does so, however.

    Dr. Fu Manchu

    So far, I have not seen any examples of martial arts by the Dr. himself except for his ability to not be hit... perhaps Defensive Martial Arts His thugs, yes. My impression has been that he considers himself to be a mandarin, long after the end of the Chinese Empire. As far as level goes...

    Dr. Fu Manchu

    What level is Dr. Fu Manchu? (Warning: Some of this information may contain spoilers if you have not yet read the appropriate novels!) While I have not yet had the opportunity to read all of the novels about the insidious doctor, I have read several. Since I am planning to run a D20M pulp...

    D20 Conversion of WW's Mage?

    How close are they to Mage, Vampire and Werewolf?

    D20 Conversion of WW's Mage?

    I would be very interested. I find the storyteller system horribly flawed but the setting to be great. I have heard a rumor that WW will be putting out a pulp adventure game with d20 stats. If I can find that info again, I will post it. If true, it could be the key that unlocks the shackles...

    Teleporting into water

    Minor point, as per the 3.5 DMG, a Decanter of Endless Water in geiser mode will put out about 4 cubic feet of water per round. It takes about 25 minutes to fill a 10' by 10' by 10' cube. Remember that when your cistern's empty.

    Rules for playing a Thri-kreen as a PC?

    Thri kreen will be in the Revised Psionics Handbook. If the hint was correct, they will have a LA of +2, with 2 HD.

    How about many-shot? :D

    Have any of you been to the Wizards boards?

    I am on that board as well as this one, and I can partially agree about the fanboy density. With all the M:TG and Pokimon garbage, they seem to get a younger crowd than here. On the other hand, it is a good board to post on for an official answer. There are some knowledgable people posting there.

    Keen and Improved Crit Stack?

    According to the 3.5 rules, a feat (ie. special training) does not stack with a magical enhancement to the sharpness of the blade. Unlike bonuses stack. I house ruled that as soon as I saw it.

    What's with Jumping?

    If we were talking about a wuxia type martial artist, then I could agree to such jumps at 5th level. Outside of some sort of wuxia based game, no. Not until much higher levels should the skill by itself do such incredible things. Magically augmented, sure, no problem.
