your idea is both simple and combines humor and creepiness to make it genius. I had an idea of an assassination attempt in an inn- A PC gets the special "Exotic Cocktail" with some ice cubes, only these aren't ICE cubes....:eek: Another idea is having one of those as a companion or Familiar...

When I'm building a character such as a fighter, first I'd think if a power works well with his role, and than I'll consider strongly against dull powers that lack that extra kick, like Brute Strike. Sure, it's balanced, But Man is it boring compared to the alternatives, all of which help make...

For a few years now I've been rolling four d6's, choosing the highest three. In addition, I roll seven times and pick the highest six for attributes. That way I get high results most of the times, and me and my players are happy with it. In comparison, the suggested Point-buy system seems too...

I'm totally stealing this hook! Is it just me, or the DM gets the most Alchohol mileage then most of the players? Plus, what about A drinking game when the PCs get into a Bar Fight, getting more druk, angry and hazy as the battle ensues? Just a thought, were the PCs also taking sips from hidden...

I'll be 18 in july, started playing AD&D in 1997, DM since 2004. Actually, everyone I know stopped playing around the ages of 18 to 21, 'couse recruitment to the army is obligatory in Israel. Most israeli roleplayers return to good ole HackN'Slash when we're released from duty, though :cool: ...

I can see any character being a Demigod, but only one an archmage or a Deadly Trickster. Kinda lame, dont you think? Guess I'll decide once I'll read through it all. If all those ED's only fit one class, we will see tons of Demigods roaming the land 'couse there aren't enough options to go...

Skimming through MM2, I spotted a cool solo: Spell Weaver- this guy has 6 hands and can cast several spells per turn, and uses several magic items at once (might be evoking a ritual while attacking two- three PC's with spells, etc.) Other ideas: Ragewind (also MM2, undead hurricane that carries...

Man, you creep me out ;) I probably won't be able to get a hold on them cores before july (Damm slow Amazon shipping rates to Israel!), but I have my plans... (my sister: "When will we get to America? I'm tired..." me: "Shut up and keep swimming!")

I'll probably start by generating 3 complete characters: One Mid-Heroic (lvl 6) One Mid-Paragon (lvl 16) One Mid-Epic (lvl 26). That way, by not skipping anything (including complete level-appropriate treasure, spells, skills, paths, etc) I will learn most of what I'll need to play. I've never...

Well, just got back from a session. My PC's are six 9level party, and thay just leveld up. The leveling was slow and tiring, and it seems just one of the PC's isn't some kind of a spellcaster (Cleric, Bard/rogue/Assasin, Druid, Ranger/Wizard/Arcane Knight, Druid/sorcerer/spellthuerge (?), and...

I know It's beeing translated into Hebrew, but that's it. These things tend to take a while, but in the end 4E will be translated to EVERY language Known to Man (I'm exaggerating, I know. MOST languages... ;) ). The formula is this: Take the time it took 3E to get a Russian translation. Devide...

Wait a minute, who said ALL minions have 1 HP? Is it certified? I don't know if it was a fan-made Minion or a previewd one, but I certainly saw a minion with higher HP at a higher level. If this isn't the case, It's badly designed. Why shouldn't a mook's HP scale like all the rest, in a way...

Ah! Half-Plate Bikini!

As I said on another post, I ran a chase scene to my 3.5 8th level players. I set the DC's at: 18 easy, 22 medium and 28 high. I know these doesn't scale mathematically, but it worked for their level of power (a lot of them are very skill dependent). The scene went great (they were chasing a...

They used weakness against radient damage as a twist on the classic "instantly slain by a friggin puny blessed crossbow bolt" thingie. It is one of those things that needed a change...

I just returned from my 3.5 session. After reading the chase rules last night, I've decided to apply them. First of all, four of my players loved it, and where coming up with excellent uses for the skills. The other two players had a much harder time coming up with good ideas, and I found myself...

wow. Just got to this thread now. First impressions: seems pretty easy to write chase scenes. The whole "we succeeded six checks! we won!" won't be an issue 'cos the PC's dont know how many successes they need or how many losses thay got till thay're cought/dead.... maybe the pursuer is a...
