    Table?

    I play at the most epic table of all. My buddy built a table for DnD. The center of the table is cut out. It has glass over the hole with a massive grid on it. Underneath the glass are lights that light up the center. It's awesome. Around the outside, there are 5 sets of dice boxes and an area...

    Battle: Los Angeles

    Banshee, you're crazy! Independence Day is still THE alien invasion movie, but Battle: LA was still an awesome movie. Definitely worth the $82 they charge for a ticket to the cinema these days.

    D&D 3.x Adding special abilities to weapons. (3.5)

    I've come across this problem numerous times before, and as I think about it, I would say that they add nothing to the cost as far as enhancement value goes. So to use the example of the dagger of venom, it's a +1 dagger with a special ability. If you want to make it a +2 dagger it costs...

    D&D 3.x Headband of Intellect (3.5)

    My group and I have always played that it does. Dandu brings up a good point, though. I guess technically I would rule that it must be worn for 24 hours before you gain the bonus spells. That begs the question would you actually wear it while you were sleeping and bathing and such. I think...

    Pimp My Artifact!!

    Hey, guys. Lately, I've become kind of obsessed with the Apparatus of the Kwalish, and I have decided to militarize it. I think I've got most everything worked, but I need help with one thing. Let me say that based upon the description, I have decided that it is a large "creature" made from...

    Cloistered cleric dip with low wis?

    I don't know anything about the character build, but I do know one thing. You need to tell your buddy that it is in no way necessary for him to take a few weeks off because of a new baby. I have two kids with another on the way. New babies are so easy to take care of. He will go mad sitting...

    running a diplomacy encounter.

    It sounds like the Druids are going to start out as Unfriendly. Outline the actions they will take if they are made friendly or helpful. Also, have a couple of ideas for specific things the PCs might say that will provide bonuses or penalties to their diplomacy checks. Then know when to say...

    Helping a friend out.

    Or to make it really easy on the new guy, use the progressions out of the back of the PHB2. I know people on these forums generally dislike pure fighters, but I really enjoy the fighter feats from the PHB2. I think they give fighters some great new options.

    Shades

    Would the shades last long enough to cast that spell with its 10 minute casting time?

    Need help finding a magic item

    This thread has certainly taken an interesting turn. My apologies for not having a keen understanding of the borked mechanics behind item creation. Thanks, Fallenibilis, for your response.

    Need help finding a magic item

    Hey, guys! I need help finding a magic item. I am certain that there is a staff or rod out there that lets you put wands into it so you can fire two or three of them at the same time and the more wands you activate at a time the more charges are used. I have checked many of the magic oriented...

    Game of Thrones Trailer

    I'm not familiar with the books, but that looks epic. And it's done by HBO so you know it will be better than the likes of Sword of Truth and Hercules.

    Called or returning property on a falchion?

    I personally think the rationalization you've already given is adequate. Your character's weapon is an extension of your person. In fact, you would probably more concerned about losing your weapon than your own child. I know that if I were DMing I would allow you to make an adjustment of some...

    Dealing with Death

    How your players handle death is really up to them. I am in the same boat as you. My players never resurrect their characters, and I feel your pain in that I would like them to be a bit more invested in their characters. It would definitely help with advancing the story and plot hooks. You...

    A 'Tank' Suggestion.

    I know, but I don't think it would be that high. It wouldn't be as if the group is absolutely counting on his spells to go off or face a TPK. Also, isn't there an enhancement for armor that lowers the spell failure rate? I can't remember what it is, but I am certain there is something like...

    A 'Tank' Suggestion.

    What about an eldritch knight in a mithral breastplate or something? I know it's not the most original idea in the world or the most OP build but it gives you some survivability and still be able to cast a bit.

    Full-strength fighter question

    These are just some ideas off the top of my head: 1. Fight ghosts or other incorpereal creatures for the 50% miss chance. 2. Fight flying creatures so he can't reach them and forces him to find another method. 3. Make trap encounters. Something like a moving wall pushing the players towards...

    Saint Template

    If memory serves me right, the Shackled City adventure path ends at roughly 19th level. I'm not familiar with the Saint template, but even if it is broken, you're only at risk of the last two adventures being steamrolled a bit. Plus, the idea sounds cool for the character and the final fight...
