Hey all, I have a game here coming up in a about 2 hours (it's 11:00 am pst/2:00 pm est) I need to know what the distance is that someone will fall in one round. I think I remember someone somewhere saying you fall 360 feet in one round? That could be totally wrong. If you have any...

Re: Re: Re: Re: [DM Q] Need a bit of help with a Mimic's attacks. Well, the thing is, they'll be in a place where it's pretty much evil, and the mimic was created to kill, so I hadn't planned on it talking much at all. Why is it that they are "especially vulnerable to magic and missle...

Re: Re: [DM Q] Need a bit of help with a Mimic's attacks. Well, that doesn't seem any good at all. So basically, whoever the mimic first hits, is probably going to be dead..? Kind of not all that fun as a DM either, I don't get to hit a bunch of different people, all the dmg has to be to...

PRICELESS! hehe, I love it :D Something that's been done in my group, you know those Dull Grey Ioun Stones? The 25gp ones? Well instead of an "Everburning Torch", try an "Everburning Ioun Stone" :D

Hey all, the Mimic is found on page 135 of the DMG. I need some help clearing up it's attacks... For it's attacks it says: Slam +8 melee Special Attacks: Adhesive Adhesive says: Adhesive (Ex): A mimic exudes a thick slime that acts as a powerful adhesive, holding fast any creatures or items...

Yes, but to me, SR is the equivelent of Fighters having to deal with DR. EDIT- hmm.. After posting it, I guess it's kinda not. Because even if a Fighter doesn't have the correct weapon to bypass DR, he could still do *some* dmg to the creature if is dmg is high enough. For a Mage and Cleric, if...

Really? I thought that one could crawl at like half speed while Prone. Maybe I'm just crazy and this is something that we've made up. So you can't "roll away 5 feet" on the ground? Any passages in the PHB that say you can't move while prone? (this has me really curious now.. hehe)

So, does anyone remember the *monster* called the Living Steel? If my memory serves me right it was in an annual monstrous compendium (don't know if the compendium was specific to Ravenloft or not.. ) Basically, the monster, if you've ever seen Terminator 2, you know the "bad" Terminator...

Hmm.. so I guess I could hold off on the MM2.. What do the rest of you think? Is it worth buying those books now if I haven't bought them yet? Amazon lists the "Quintessential XXX" books as "hard to find" and possibly not found at all. I've heard they are pretty good books..? I also...

Dance! Everybody dance! (ever see the Spike and Mike short film called "Rejected" ? :) )

No, Standing up from prone does NOT provoke an AoO. There *is* a feat in the Swashbuckling Dragon Mag issue, called "Kick 'Em While They're Down" that allows you to make an AoO against anyone standing up from prone in your threatened area. Now, the prone person *could* roll away 5 feet (5...

Yeah, I thought I *was* doing that. :( Like I edited my first post to say, I'm a Poll-newbie..

Might I ask what the "M.A.D. route" is? Also, my stance is that I don't like Sunder, for reasons I had stated above. I really don't ever want to use it on my PC's, and the other DM's in my group (we rotate every once in a while) have said that they don't want to use it either. It.. just...

Hmm.. I'm just worried about spending money on books and then they are "obsolete".. :( Anyone else have any thoughts/answers?

Just wondering how many of you DM's use Sunder and break the PC's weapons, and/or send NPC's to steal items from the PC's. The reason I ask is because of the chart of "character wealth". Each character is assumed to be carrying that amount of wealth at those particular lvls. The question...

never done a poll before.. let's see if this works

Hey all you awesome Story Hour Writers! I just recently started running my own game and I thought about posting it here as a Story Hour! :) Can any of the writers here post any Advice on how to go about writing up your gaming sessions as a Story Hour? Such as, how do you remember all the...

Well it sounds as if they where really hurt by the fact that there where no Clerics in the last campaign. Not having a cleric tends to.. uh.. suck.. hehe. Of note, your cleric/wizards might be heading towards the Mystic Theurge PrC ;) Should be interesting, and like you said, they aren't...

Hey all, I think I remember seeing something a while ago about books that where already in print and 3.5 Edition. As it stands right now, the only books I own are the PHB, DMG, and MM (well, also Relics and Rituals as well) I just started DM'ing and decided I'd like to pick up some more...

Hmm, very good thread! One thing that I've thought of, is if the PC's loot the bodies of their fallen comrades, you as the DM just have to take that into account when handing out future treasure. Sure they're getting alot right now from the old character's stuff, but, they *won't* be finding...
