Strange, I thought that all those companies invested in sending out massive amounts of spam because they're lawful evil. Are you suggesting it's a a tried and confirmed business tool that allows you to make money even if you don't actually make anything, and works wonders for people who do? Next...

If they are completely new to the area, they can hardly navigate from memory. So they need a map, and you travel with map by checking where you are, and then heading of in some direction, until you reach a new characteristic point, where you check your position again and then go to the next...

Um... So what you really mean is: "disregard 2/3 of my post and focus totally on last 4 lines"? Readers tend to focus heavily on first 66% of the text, you'd be surprised. One of the problems here is that until the second sentence, this part would work perfectly with the bigger part of your...

It's certainly one, and valid, point of view on using "magic" in games. I guess we think of different things when the word comes up ;-)

You know, pickpocketing is available for NPC's too ;-) What other, non-magical items have you tried giving them? Note that powergaming type does not mean the tournament-player type of gamer, it's often easy to misjudge one for the other. Giving them a corsair vessel of their own might be...

Eh, well tbh - when your companions suddenly leave you, fighting all alone against 3 enemies - yes, I'd guess that could be the case.

Well, while GURPS can be made into just about anything and Call of Cthulhu is good with professor-types... I can't help but to nudge you towards Pathfinder and it's new class - The Alchemist. It's free for grab in the Advanced Player's Guide Final Class Playtest PDF. It's pretty much the only...

As they go further and further the wrong way, describe whatever characteristic points there are. Is there a mountain they should be getting closer to/farther from? If they still don't get it, make them throw survival checks until they get totally lost, at which point they can check the map...

That's pretty much what GURPS is for. I can't tell if it's better/worse than HERO (never played it), but it certainly would get the job done. Many books that appear to be great specialized systems are in fact GURPS tuned for the job :P Call of Cthulhu would work great as well, and you wouldn't...

I know we're talking about magical elves world here, but... it really isn't possible. It's not as much that halberds are not balanced. It's like 95% of entire point of the halberd that it's not balanced. So with a lot of pain and groaning, and being threatened that my magic would be taken away...

C'est tres bien. I have to say - those maps are very impressive. It's extremely rare to find someone who makes sure his maps make sense. And while I admire the level of geography, what struck me even more - was the parcelling system within cities. Astonishing, really.

Hehe, "don't split the party" is a guideline to players, mate. If they leave one of their own to defend against bigger forces, kill him away, maybe have him half-way roasted by the time they get there. Hell, why not make the door be locked? :-) Paper soldiers never die. There's no harm in...

Um, people still get angry about spam? I mean, in a matter they would, but I thought everyone knows how it works? IE - you don't reply to spam, because the mails are used to send only. And as to the "I won't buy it" part... Huh? So what you're saying is that this strategy is spot-on? They...

Swing and miss? Or rather - cut artery (which is good) when one aimed for decapitation? :P There were like six or seven versions of BR. And while yeah, it'd be great if Essentials would turn up to be the '92 version, or even better - the 2007 one... what if it's just the '86? Or, since it's...

Mate - it's whichever you and your DM prefer. I'd guess that since Drows have bigger chance of crossing Mindflayers (what with the Underdark and everything), then they wouldn't shed the effects part. On the other hand, it might be precisely the case, that Mindflayers themselves tampered with...

Um... I didn't save the link at the time, but I found this company some time ago by an article that called this product lightsaber as well (was it Cracked?). But it wasn't called that in a sense that it looks like one, but rather "omghandheldcombatlaser".

1 Kobold 0 2 Goblin 10 3 Hobgoblin 23 4 Orc 37-39 (37.7 by 4e, so still either 37 or 38) 5 Gnoll 54-57 (55 by 4e) 6 Bugbear 77 (75 by 4e, but I'm quite positive it's 77 here) 7 Owlbear 94-100 (100 by 4e) 8 Githyanki 128-132 (130 by 4e) 9 Harpy 165 10 Troll 202-206 (205 by 4e) 11 Vampire 260-264...

Um... first 3 are easy, it get's bumpy after that without the search option ;P But here are brackets (x-y, more than x less than y) that give the general gist (beside owlbears, who are tricky to find. I need a honey popsicle, or something) : 1 Kobold 0 2 Goblin 10 3 Hobgoblin 23 4 Orc 37-39 5...

Well since bulletin boards are a thing outside of teh interweb... It's a bulletin board, only people use it to discuss things. Plus, it's sort of on another plane (lightening/electricity) - so only so called "moderators" can physically change or rip down previous messages. You generally need to...
