    Bulletproof Glass.

    From http://archivedboards.wizards.com/community/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=291;t=002751 Charles: We haven't established any official stats on bulletproof glass, but I'd put it at about hardness 5, 5 hp per inch. One-inch thickness is pretty typical in most applications.

    WOTC D20 Modern vs AEG Spycraft

    Sorry, I was in grumpy mode (must stop posting before 1st cup of coffee) :) I still stand by what I said though, d20 Modern is not modern-day D&D with trolls, gnolls and magic. It can be if you want to play it like that, but the main rule book makes no assumptions to the type of game you are...

    WOTC D20 Modern vs AEG Spycraft

    No it is not. d20 Modern is a generic toolkit. Urban Arcana is closer to what you describe and that is only one of the sample campaign settings. What about Genetech, Mecha Crusade, Iron Lords of Jupiter?

    Zero to Level 1 Characters

    Years ago. In 1e there was an FR adventure called Treasure Hunt. You all start as zero level slaves who become shipwrecked on an island. Your actions on the island allow you to accumulate points in particular classes. Once you gained a certain number of points you became 1st level whatever.

    Urban Arcana -- Total Spellcasting?

    From the draft Errata (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48545) For ArchMage: The language under Total Spellcasting is a little confusing. It should read: "Add all arcane caster levels to the Archmage's class level when determining the Archmage's casting level for arcane...

    d20 Future?

    I think in one of the chat sessions. Anyway here is what Charles Ryan has said about d20 Future: I can't say much about d20 Future at this point, but I will share a couple things. d20 Future isn't establishing a default campaign setting, like Urban Arcana. The book will instead provide info...

    d20 Future?

    Last I heard 2004 sometime. Going to be an add on for d20 Modern, no campaign setting, just a toolkit to build pretty much any futuristic setting you can think of.

    The problem with FLGS

    Discount Schemes My FLGS is also a normal bookshop. They have a customer loyalty scheme that runs like this. Every GBP5 I spend on books, dice, figures I get a little card stamped. 20 Stamps gives me GBP5 off my next purchase. They also belong to a community discount scheme. I have a local...

    WotC boards (slighty ranty...)

    IIRC WizO's get paid about USD7.00 an hour and are expected to do do 2-8 hours a week of moderation. When they were advertising last time I did consider applying, after all I am on the boards most days and I have a reasonably thick skin :). But then I did the maths that the money would cover...

    WotC boards (slighty ranty...)

    Can you point me to the exact post, I have looked at this first thread (the 3.5 complaints thread right?) and skimmed through the 11 pages. I've seen the WizO's remind people that the CoC will be enforces and even seen the WizO give advice and the proper way to complain on the boards But I...

    WotC boards (slighty ranty...)

    I frequent the d20 Games area of the WotC site and away from the DnD sections. I have not come across any problems with the moderation. Explainations are given as to why a thread is closed or moved. Locked threads stay visible so that you can see why. I have only ever seen one thread deleted...

    Lolth dead?

    Yes, we killed her in Q1 Queen of the Demon Web Pits. We stabbed her with a posioned dagger and she died, apparently in 1e she was not immune to poison. This lead to one of our groups 'famous phrases' Anything but a one and she saves

    In Search of the Best Module Ever

    mmm, difficult I have two 1) G/D/Q Series - A classic, but more of a campaign rather than a module. 2) FR0 - Treasure hunt (1e). Characters start of without any classes, it is their actions during the adventure that determine what classes they become.

    Urban Arcana's new mgic system

    Current no part of Urban Arcana is open content, there are rumours that some parts will be added to the Modern SRD towards the end of the year. The Spycraft system sounds similar to the Alternity system of extend checks (?) where to complete a task you would need x number of successes. The...
