    The NEW RAT BASTARD DM Boards are OPEN!

    How do Rat Bastards who were Rat Bastards on the old Rat Bastards' boards become qualified as a Rat Bastard on the new Rat Bastards' boards? *Whew* That was a lot of Rat Bastards!

    Hasbro 1Q results

    Wow, they don't even mention D&D in the "Games segment" where they mention WotC... I wonder what small percentage of the money generated by WotC is D&D/d20 related, compared to "traditional" games...

    What do you like or don't like in sci-fi rpg

    I would! *laugh* I've also been watching HBO's "Deadwood" and thinking about how to translate it into a Firefly-esque scenario... Westerns will never be the same for me... and I like it! *laugh*

    Rant - What was the GM thinking?

    Ah, one of the most come DM's Achilles's Heels... I've suffered from it many times: assume the players will do the same thing, in the same type of situation, that they've done every time before. When designing a scenario, as soon as a DM thinks, "They'll do this to solve it, because they always...

    PCs going to a jungle

    You might want to check out some of WotC's "The Far Corners of the World" web stuff. Here's a link to one of the Jungle/Rainforest articles: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/fw/20030420a

    Expanded PsiHB Excerpts

    More strangeness... More strangeness with the "displays" related to psionic powers: Intellect Fortress Psychokinesis Level: Psion/wilder 4 Display: Auditory You encase yourself and your allies in a shimmering fortress of telekinetic force. Wouldn't that be a visual display? Perhaps if it...

    Expanded PsiHB Excerpts

    I believe that's when you "grow" a creature that's originally Medium to Large by adding hit dice, it's not something that all Large creatures get automatically. If the Half-Giant was Large to begin with, it wouldn't get this increase.

    Expanded PsiHB Excerpts

    Well, it would still only have only have class hit die, though I admit reach and bigger weapons are a big bonus. Are there spells that only affect medium or smaller creatures? I'd always thought it tended towards humanoids only (which is close to the same thing in practice) for lower level...

    Expanded PsiHB Excerpts

    I really think they should've made the half-giants "Large Humanoids", just so there was finally a "Large" humanoid... *sigh*

    Casting spells right out of your spellbook

    Actually, according to the SRD, that's not a house rule but part of core! On p178 of the PHB as well.

    d20 Supers: Recommendations?

    The most excellent Deeds Not Words can be found here: http://www.minasithil.com/cryptosnarkgames/ and here: http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=1685& I heartily recommend DNW, Scott Lynch has really captured the feel of comic books both in rules and writing.

    How do you roleplay an Int 74 character?

    He'd devise the best was to act normal, so the dudes with STR74 wouldn't beat on him after class... ;)

    How do you RP a Wis: 74 and Cha: 60?

    With that high of a Wis, might he not realize the gods are actually important? It could be made as an epihphany type thing. Either realizing the cosmic balance and playing it cool. Or deciding one way is actually better and devoting himself to bringing about monotheism. Lots of ways to go!

    Frostburn - WoTC Environment Series

    Anyone remember these articles? Almost seems like test work for "enviroments". Far Corners of the World Wonder if any of the stuff from the articles will show up in the books.

    Does anyone take a class for flavour anymore?

    That would be in my game. Unfortunately, the player doesn't have that high of a wisdom either, but they *do* have a stubborn streak... *laugh* So, once it was thought of to do, there was nothing that could be done to change it. So, we applauded instead of criticized... so, I agree with you...

    Does anyone take a class for flavour anymore?

    There's a PC in my campaign, a 5th level rogue with Wis 9, that has been so helped by the party members from a LG church that she's changing her alignment from CG to LG and taking a level of cleric because of their (and the diety's) good example! How's that for flavour! She was this orphaned...
