Thats as good of example as any for why there should be no classes as defined by the d20 rules in a game like StarWars. The StarWars universe is too vast and varied to be constrained by a goofy mechanic. Now if classes were to be templates in which new players could use to easily create...

I'd have to disagree by comments made by other members of my group. d20 is neither a simple system nor is it at the core modular, i.e. the hit point, class and level system don't work well for every type of game. Take M&M, its similiar to d20 because its OGL'd but at the same time it plays...

Get rid of any concept of classes, period. Not to mention hp/vp/wp, rather use something akin to M&M's damage system which resembles the original WEG SW damage system. Those are two big ones right there.

No, the PH states that all ranged attacks take place at the midpoint of the mount's movement.

And unless you are an extremely good storyteller as a GM that can give a clear picture of what is going on in the battle to all the players, it just falls flat on its face. Personally, in 20 some odd years of gaming [and I only started wargaming in the last 6 or so on and off] I've yet to run...

Re: Do the Hustle! Looks like... pat_b - possible ToEE D&D game Eridanis - possible D&D game that runs a converted 1e module Diremede - D&D for 4-6 9th lvl characters Pbartender - d20 Star Wars for 4-6 3rd level characters mgrasso - d20 modern of yet to be determined scenario

Yup multiclassing is the way to go. It should also be pointed out to the player that the BAB differs only by +2 or maybe +3 at most until much higher levels. This can easily be made up for by the selection of spells that the cleric has available to him. We had a cleric/fighter in our...

I am the DM. :) And I asked because I was torn.... and please, no referencese to Natalie Imbrulia [or however its spelled]. Well using a sword effectively in combat takes concentration too. I think that "patience" is more the key word than concentration, otherwise to me the raging would just...

Since "sneak attack" is really sorta a misnomer, is it possible for a Barbarian to use a sneak attack ability while raging?

Well, not many GMs have come forward... :/ Perhaps the first post could be updated to include a) a list of the suggested games pulled from the other post b) a list of GMs and their game of choice Think that would help us know whats going on. I'd volunteer, but no one was interested in WEG...

Interesting. I don't know if I completely agree, myself, with it.. but its a valid concern. Personally, even with being a) software architect/engineer by trade, b) being a computer gamer and writing mods for such games as Unreal Tournament and Unreal Tournament 2003, c) being fairly heavily...

Re: "Revolutionary" new version What database is that?

Thanks for the clarification KnowTheToe!

Well with the inclusion of RPG.net into the fold for this Chicago Gameday, then it really shouldn't be, no? Mms, ok. My reason for wanting to go is to play/GM games of interest that I won't normally play with my gaming group [i.e. anything but D&D 3rd Ed. and Necro]. This is both from a...

Don't have d20 SW, don't want to give WotC money for it, etc. :) And yes, the one big drawback of d6 SW was always the number of dice, but for a good campaign, you don't need to roll tons of dice. But thats the greatest boon to a GM, especially when doing one off things like the Chicago...

Ah yes, need to make a "wizardly" version of it since one of its PreReqs is Wis 13+ so it'd need to be a Int 13+.

Yeah, thats why I was asking if anyone had seen any magical beast feats. Natural spell feat, you talking about the one from the Masters of the Wild splat book?

He is a wizard, or at least as much as you can be as a magical beast, and was looking at going back to his "roots" as a barbarian.. but thought I'd look and see what was out there as far as PrCs to give more flavor down the road.

Will have to take a gander if I run across it in a store. Half-orc reincarnated as a leopard.

Mms... thats sorta light, is the rest of the book that light? Not in particular, was looking for some to give a magical beast character some flavor. Obviously PrCs that revolve around being mounts don't work all that well...:)
