    Keen stacking

    OK, so I didn't articulate very well Good clarification question, I didn't mean it that way. I would rule that chill metal would work. :rolleyes: It isn't benefiting the wielder by providing more 'icy burstness'. What I really meant was that a magically keen sword has the same bonus that...

    Keen stacking

    I think some of you are lost I thought this was the keen effects stacking discussion. Abuse is down the hall. :D Also, round things tend not to stack very well and often fall over. As a DM, I would rule in my game that the spell and the weapon (created with the spell) don't stack. Rule...

    [OT] What is the best selling beer in your country?

    I myself am unable to consume Bud without getting ill, literally. I do not find it tasty either. No offense to the Bud fans. Although I have had interesting brews in Thailand, Egypt, Greece, Spain; I still favor the ones from Bavaria, Belgium, England, Ireland and our local USA micro brews...

    [OT] What is the best selling beer in your country?

    I had that when I was in Thialand but I didn't find it memorable, got a nice Singha T-shirt though! :D

    [OT] What is the best selling beer in your country?

    clarification Well since Guiness is Irish, it would taste better in Dublin, and it does. I won't try and explain why, I am not sure I know why, but it clearly DOES taste better in Ireland. In most pubs in England don't sell Guiness. But a good English bitters is a close second. Also, any...

    command ... you make the call

    disrobe. Ah, yes of course. Do you use this selectively or do you have a strong stomach? :D

    command ... you make the call

    So I'm sure this has been discussed over and over... but I must have missed it. :rolleyes: Help me stretch this spell with some new ways to use it for my group. You are the DM. A human cleric is facing an opponent with a sword in one hand (try this exercise again with sword & shield; two...

    How did you get into D&D?

    Late 70s, a bunch of folks who have met through a friend of a friend kind of thing. All war gamers looking for a good multiplayer game. I see this D&D thing at the game shop and buy it. I somehow manage to convince these guys to try it. Basic D&D boxed set, "The Keep on the Borderlands"...

    troglodyte & stench damage question

    I find it hard to believe any self respecting Trog would take a bath :D

    troglodyte & stench damage question

    what do you do if they fail more than 1 save?

    troglodyte & stench damage question

    I'm sure this has been asked before, but Troglodytes stench: It seems hard to believe that it could, but do multiple trogs stench stack? Nausea would be no worse, but more strength damage? What about an hour later coming across more trogs, more strength damage? Because it is described as...

    [OT] Warren Zevon

    I too am saddened by this news. I have seen him live a couple of times and enjoyed his music countless times. Speaks to our dark side he does, and yet always with the unspoken hope. I couldn't begin to count how many times I may have quoted his lyrics. I'm sure he will find more dark and...

    Stirge touch attack?

    learn something new everyday So, there goes another nuance of the rules that we overlooked. Looking too hard at the difference between those with 10' reach vs 5' reach. Forgot all about the little buggers!:rolleyes: Thanks!

    Stirge touch attack?

    Stirge touch attack? - 0 reach! I overlooked that. So does every creature then with 0 reach generate an AoO from a creature/charater with any reach?

    How many arrows can one man carry?

    Try the show me method. Ask a motivated group of players to simulate carrying more than 2 quivers. It's not the weight I would guess that would be the problem but the shear size and ability to keep them out of the way when moving/fighting. Have them strap three somethings on their back that...

    Stirge touch attack?

    The player wouldn't get a AoO from the stirges attack, it is a real attack, just with the advantage of ignoring armor. Also the Stirge will do a point of damage with the attack. And as was pointed out, the con damage starts the next round. There is another post on this forum where we...

    Grab a stirge and tear it off?

    Well as the DM, I don't tell what to do, just how foolish they looked after they have done it. :D So I think that killing it is more effective that tearing it off, but hey heroes aren't necessarily smart!

    Grab a stirge and tear it off?

    Well if you go by the grapple rules, you could only use a light weapon yourself. And if someone else was trying, they would have a chance of hitting the character instead of the stirge. No need to adjust strength.
