    Just Curious: Alignment Restrictions and Game Balance

    Read ALL the books, when you can. They're damn good, and you'll see Roland is a Paladin with Holy Avenger Revolvers +5. :D I just like the books a lot

    Alternate Currency Systems

    Anyone? No thoughts? Is a simple 2 obsidian pieces = 1 gp = 1/2 quartz piece = 1/4 pearl piece kind of relationship sufficient? Is this too much effort for setting continuity? Would exchange rates flux? I'm sure someone out there has experience with this...

    A discussion on Level Adjustments and thier implications

    Thanks! I'm trying to create a campaign world with a lot of varied races (azers, merfolk, tritons, salamanders, etc.), but want to keep them on an even keel with core races. I'll have to take a closer look at Savage Species.

    A discussion on Level Adjustments and thier implications

    I still have trouble understanding how racial hit dice and ECL operate. Say as a DM I like having Azer NPCs, or allowing them as PCs. Because they have 4 racial hit dice and a +2 LA (I think, don't have the MM handy), that says to start them down a PC level advancement, 1st class level = 7th...

    Just Curious: Alignment Restrictions and Game Balance

    Me Personally, I just don't like compromises in flavor/sensibility. I wouldn't want to allow a monk/barbarian because the two lifestyles are diametrically opposed as I see it. How is one to achieve the zen-like state that allows a monk to use his wisdom bonuses for AC when he's flying into...

    If you're willing to head west to the Ft. Walton Beach area (Hurlburt and Eglin AFBs are here), I'm trying to organize gamers around here.

    Low INT and skill points.

    I agree with this analysis upon reading pg 62. The first step in determining skill points for a character is to take the amount allowed by class and adjust for intelligence. Resolve. Apply the minimum of one rule. Resolve. THEN humans are allowed the extra point given to them by their race...

    Craft vs Profession

    Sounds reasonable to me. I honestly never heard of a character like yours that took ranks in Profession to cover Smithing. That always seemed a Craft skill to me. Dunno.

    What's the Most Asinine Character Idea/Concept You've Dealt With?

    My friends and I love the Tick and wanted to do a stupid superhero game. Mostly we just came up with general outlines for characters. My favorite? I always wanted to make a hero named "Government Cheese." Sort of a dairy-oriented James Bond meets Friday from Dragnet. He'd just have stupid...

    Craft vs Profession

    Also, there's just the fact that not every job in the world produces marketable goods. Sailors, Teamsters, Lumberjacks, Millers, etc don't necessarily make anything specific as far as equipment goes, but you might want your character to know something about those jobs. That's what Profession...

    "Terrorist network" antagonists vs. PCs?

    Yeah, I know, I wasn't claiming it was novel. I was just commenting on how I notice that the higher level the PCs get, I usually notice challenges scale in CR nearly 1-to-1. In the dozen orcs vs. 17th level PCs, everyone was discussing how this was almost a waste of time, or else the orcs...
