    Eberron- And why I cannot jump onboard? A different take

    It is early to tell just now. The first look at E in Dragon was very interesting. The second article that came out recently backtracked it a little as i doubt i am into action points (also known as Luck, hero points, karma, willpower, fate points, etc) and most of the movies listed as...

    What d20 Purchases to you Regret?

    I bought the gazeteer and thought it was great. I had run 1 campaign and was in the middle of another when the other books started coming out and didn't jibe with my stuff. I got 6 of the books in the space of 2 weeks (2 were gifts), because i was sure that i would love them......i didn't. got...

    What d20 Purchases to you Regret?

    Le ' oops!!! Double post! Does this mean i am talking out of both sides of my keyboard? I just remembered the Master of Arms was a big waste o'money. I regret Spycraft and the other supplements i got for it. The game ended up not being very usuable for the whole group, which was as big a...

    What d20 Purchases to you Regret?

    I'm not at home right now, so this is probably an incomplete list. All my books from Mongoose -Constructs (because it sits on the shelf totally unused- and i use a lot of construct/clockwork stuff!), -Battle Magic (More cool ideas, but none of the mechanics or classes quite fit the bill for...

    Low level, low magic

    Just a stray thought i had, but i think their is definitely one thing 3.5 did well. Damage reduction. I think their new system for DR will help support lower magic settings. You don't need an uber-plus magic weapon now. It could be just a silver arrow, a cold-iron mace, or a adamantine bastard...

    What campaign setting do you use?

    WotC and D&D

    I agree. I didn't see a lot that made me shiver from the evvvvviiillllllness. The dark lord guy with children chained to him was ok. :) Mostly the whole "mature" readers only thing still smacks of hype-building. But BOED seemed the ssame level of build up. If anything those sacrifice bonuses...

    What campaign setting do you use?

    Hey, Blackshirt5. How is Dawnforge different than FR, KOK, or GH? I'm honestly interested, this isn't a slam or anything. Just curious.

    What campaign setting do you use?

    I voted Homebrew, which is what i do 50% of the time (i got like 5 of them or something). I also mix in an occasional Dark Sun or Lankhmar game. Also now...Wilderlands. This revamp of the Wilderlands has really captured my attention. It is truly a 3.5 edition game with a 1st edition feel. It has...

    Low level, low magic

    I totally agree. Some of the differences i think were that even the "big guns" would muck around in the muddy alleyways of Downwind and you could smell the stench of stale beer and vomit when they entered the Vulgar Unicorn. That is more difficult a thing to achieve when you have 5 living...

    Low level, low magic

    I don't mind. Except for a few zingers and the usual irreverance of Hong its going pretty well. :)

    Low level, low magic

    Midnight is pretty darn good. I like their magic variation. Even though i pretty much hate the stock non-human races (i'm talking genocide level here folks), i'll admitt that their elves are a darn sight more interesting than what i normally have to gag through in most settings with elves in...

    Keeping Mid-High Level characters in a dungeon

    Heh, i like that one. I can use it. :)

    Low level, low magic

    If there is a WOTC commando unit storming your house every game session and making you give out powerful magic items and high-powered magical abilities, then i could see your problem. Since i doubt there is (i've heard rumors, though) why are you complaining? Don't give them out, restrict spell...

    LOL. Just as good! :)

    Encouraging players to role-play multiclassing?

    Hey!! You got D&D in my Hero!! Its easier, i think, than D&Difying my Hero.

    WotC and D&D

    Kesh -I like the idea of a D20 Fantasy book like the D20 Modern. Heck i'd like to see a D20 Basic Book as well. Maddman75 -If you thought BOVD was good, then BOED is pretty much the same. Its powerups, spell feats, and equipment are just the polar outside of BOVD (not quite that simple, but...

    Worst 3.5 publishers?

    Hmmm..that would burn my britches too. "Hey, here is this new fangled steamtech class for you. Huh? Well...no you don't have to have this class to make steam tech stuff. Why are you laughing?" sigh. Whoever it was a couple pages ago that said following companies was unwise and that you should...

    Starting PCs with NPC classes--would it work?

    Maybe you could start them at level 2, which would make them equivalent of 1st core classes (Npc level -1 = core class character). Then you could treat them as 1st level regular characters in terms of what challenges to throw at them. Both the Aristocrat and Expert do pretty well for skill...
