    Civ 4 - Excited? [UPDATED pt.2 - Game is out & now PATCHED! Share your thoughts.]

    So if they've done away with corruption, does that mean all cities regardless their distance from the capital all have the potential to produce the same ammount of shields and such?

    The Movies

    That makes me a happy gamer. I am very much looking forward to this game, I just hope it's not crazy expensive. I could live with $40

    Ranged Feint?

    Can you elaborate? I don't see how this gets around feints description in the RAW. Are having those ranks prereqs for another ability?

    Ranged Feint?

    The RAW and SRD read as such, emphasis mine: Is there anything in a supplimental book that allows for a feint to work with a ranged attack?

    Deflect Arrows

    While it may only be able to be used a few times per day, that makes it no less believable. The fact that it's magic is irrelevant. Both a magic spell and a feat require research and training (effectively; in game). Both characters in question for this example have a specialized skill only...

    Deflect Arrows

    I don't see how deflecting an incomming speeding arrow, for a character who has performed proper research and training (ie the feat) is any less believable than many of the other things that first level characters can do. Its no less believable, for example, than a first level character, with...

    True Strike as a Swift Action

    If it were a swift action, and remaining a level 1 spell (not a 5th level as aluded to before) THAT would be abusive and game breaking. However, as it stands, I do not believe it to be game breaking, even if 1 wiz/19 fighter. Munchkiny, for sure. And I believe the future spells do matter...

    True Strike as a Swift Action

    I was only refering to the core of Power Attack and True strike. You can break many things with all the other supplimental books out there. But I can see your point when factoring in all of this. In regards to the other posters who mentioned it's a bit much as a first level spell, please...

    Order of the Stick - I'm confused!

    If you're jumping in late to the comic, I'd strongly recommend reading all of them when you have the free time. REALLY funny stuff :)

    True Strike as a Swift Action

    I don't see how Power Attack and True Strike is all that broken. You can not exceed your Base Attack Bonus when using Power Attack, so by the time you are a high enough level to do a lot of damage with it, that damage will be on par with or beneath other types of damage you can dish out...

    Gaming in Eastern Connecticut?

    I used to live up the road from Dragon's lair, they have tons of great books, but like bobitron said, if they don't have it in stock, expect awhile to wait. But they have a really big space. Anyway, if you're intereseted, drop me a line at mrtauntaun@mrtauntaun.com

    Gaming in Eastern Connecticut?

    Hi there. Pickings are slim in the east in terms of FLGS's, at least they were when I lived out there a year ago. And it was always like that, even back when I was a student at UCONN. That being said, there are likely many groups on campus that play. If the college crowd is too young for you...

    To Firewall or not to Firewall

    Look at it this way, if a software based firewall is bypassed or brought down, then then intruder is already on your machine. If a hardware based firewall fails, it will (most likely) take your network with it, preventing the intruder from progress due to a lack of active connections. But, as...

    Can you cast spells at 1st level in Grim Tales?

    I borrowed this book from a friend, but don't remember it exactly. Do you have to have the Magical Adept talent to actually cast spells? Since it is an advanced talent, that means you can't cast them until 3rd level. OR Can you cast at first level, you just take more burn because you don't...

    Connecticut Gamers - Manchester CT STILL needs a player!

    We currently have 4 players total, 3 at any one time, and we rotate as DM. We want to add another before our friend moves, so that way we won't have any interrupt in playing time.
