    wand creation cost - BASE PRICE

    There is no contradiction; table 7-33 refers to the base price, but table 7-32 refers to the cost to create, which is half the base price. This is why you get 750 gp on one and 375 on the other.

    Double Tap-How does it work??

    EDIT: Gah! Rodrigo posted it on post 3; how could I miss? From HERE Double Tap Prerequisite: Dexterity 13, Point Blank Shot. Benefit: When using a semiautomatic firearm with at least two bullets loaded, the character may fire two bullets as a single attack against a single target. The...

    WOTC is out of their freakin minds...

    It's #2. Here is a post about it from Charles Ryan on the WotC boards. Basically, it boils down to the fact that pursuing the potential market of those who consider pdfs to be less valuable (and require them to be cheaper) would infringe on the market of the physical books, which would in...

    [d20 Future] Moving Planets

    We could probably moving planets with today's (PL 5) tech, provided you can endure to wait centuries (or more) to see even te smallest progress. It's just a matter of building thrusters on suitable spots and then firing them every time they point in the right direction; what makes it utterly...

    Casting HOLD PERSON on someone FLYing

    1) Probably neither A nor B; AFAIK, fly just requires a small amount of concentration but no physical actions. The held character could just keep on (but could do little else). 2) Interesting conundrum; my suggestion would be either to start making Con checks immediately (a bit cruel) or to...

    Using Mutants and Masterminds for a fantasy game

    For what it's worth, in my limited experience damage saves work well, provided one accounts for the change in philosophy. In D&D it works by escalation: at higher levels attack bonuses, damage and save DCs go up, but so do AC, hit points and save scores; a mismatched fight results in a one-sided...

    Using Mutants and Masterminds for a fantasy game

    I'm doing it right now; I'm playing a mostly fantasy/slightly sci-fi campaign with a couple friends using M&M. So far it has worked well, at least for us. We pulled it off as lower powered by self-imposing the following points: 1) Lower starting level and slow advancement: our characters...

    Energy Substitution

    Sonic is also the only energy type other than Acid that deals full damage to objects (fire and electricity are halved, cold is divided by 4).

    The poor illusionist...

    Spellcraft checks aren't that big a problem, as there is a number of ways to hide what you are doing. Cover, concealment, interposed objects, bad illumination, being invisible or hidden and still spell will mask the somatic component; loud background noises, thick walls and silent spell mask the...

    Cooperative Spell - one effect or more than one?

    I always intended it to pull off only a single spell; otherwise you could have a high level caster with DCs already pumped through the roof "lend" it to his gang of lower level goons and even have it additionally improved at no cost other than the fact that all must cast the same spell. If you...

    What Magic Items can a Werewolf use ?

    Well, armor is not a problem; you can assume an almost istantaneous resizing. Most other magic items would fit both your humanoid shape and the rougly humanoid hybrid one, so no problem there, also. If anything, I envision some problems with vests and robes, unless they are quite loose or...
