    CoC D20 - electonic copy

    Pretty sure you are out of luck. I just checked Drive Thru RPG , which is the one place that I would think that any WotC book would be in pdf, to make sureand they don't have it. My understanding of the agreement (or lack thereof) between WotC and Chaosium was that after the initial print run...

    Reoccuring dream elements?

    I was reminded of another one last night that I had forgotten - a problem with my contacts. In dreams I go to put them on and they are either a) the size of saucers b) crusted over with dirt and grime c) torn or otherwise ragged. In spite of these problems I always try to put them on in the...

    Chris Perkin's quote and general Dragon speculation

    Two different issues here, and I tried to find a place over on WotC's site to ask but wasn't sure. 1) Does Chris Perkin's quote on the front page ["One thing I know we're doing is planning d20 Modern content on D&D Insider. A good number of folks have asked for it. Frankly, we could use a few...

    Walking the line of LN and LE, HELP!

    Regardless of undetectable alignment the other PCs are going to wonder about your PC's actions, the spell doesnt really help if you have time to observe a person's behavior over time. I think playing out the balance will be fun, and that your PC should struggle with it. Maybe he or she doesnt...

    Promoting the entire party's experience level at the same time

    Almost everyone I know gives out XP to the entire party all at the same time and, barring Item creation, that means that everyone goes up at the same time. Even those who make a lot of magic items rarely are so far off that they wouldnt go up at about the same time.

    GODLIKE: Any good?

    Depends on what you want. GURPS 3e has some WW2 stuff, including an very interesting Weird War suplement, if you want to do some more straight forward military stuff with maybe a little bit of fantasy/supernatural. Mutants and Masterminds could be used in place of Godlike for a more 4 Color...

    How many wizards does it take to screw in a lightbu- I mean, kill Elminster?

    Trick* him into entering a bag of holding (tell him that your girlfriend is in there) and then drop it into a portable hole? *Just how many ranks of Sense Motive does he have?

    What are you currently using?

    Playing: A Planescape game taking bits from Demonweb Pits (the DM didnt like it as is) which started with the Shatteredgates of Slaughterguard adventure Running (not in a looong time so on hiatus): Ptolus/NoD: which if we go back to I am likely to radically depart from the adventure and go a...

    Dungeon/Dragon: Anyone Been Greenlighted Yet?

    No. And am about at the point that I am assuming I will not be. I am wondering if crunch heavy articles, which mine were, are only going to be done in house or by their regular freelancers. Unfortunatelly for me I am not so well versed in any of the published settings that I could really do a...

    GODLIKE: Any good?

    I had it and sold it a while back. Never played it. Interesting setting, but the mechanics felt off. I have read it described as "Eggs with Hammers" - basically that you could have this super powerful characters that could do all of this stuff but couldn't really take a hit from another...

    Prestige Class? Master of Science.

    That, I think, is debateable depending on the program. I have friends who got a masters in 1 (32 semester hours) year with a thesis while I had a 3 year program ( 96 hours) and still wound up turning in about 400 pages worth of papers during that year. Not saying that yours wasn't harder, just...

    Load me up with Eberron!

    I will simply re-iterate that "Fallen Angel" (Dungeon #117) is great and an excellent place to start and adventure. Other than that Five Nations and Player's Guide have lots of nice setting info that would be useful for a DM, especially one who intended to take "Fallen Angel" and make it a...

    Travel Advice - France

    You can spend all the time in the world in Paris and not see it all, so if you are going to limit your time there I would plan wisely. I personally would have prefered seeing more historic sites and less museums, but thats just me. If interested in aristocratic masions the Loire Valley is a...

    key mechanical elements for a cinematic/swashbuckling game

    Iron Heroes introduces the concepts of Zones and has some interesting ways to use stunts and manuevers. IIRC Book of Iron Might has something similar. Another way to handle it would be to say if you have X ranks in a skill you can perform certain swashbuckling manuevers. 10 ranks in Jump...

    Prestige Class? Master of Science.

    Ha! Again it depends on the field. Given the years I spent in school its certainly not true for me.

    Prestige Class? Master of Science.

    I think it all depends on the type of degree and the field. In some instances a certification from a vocational school would be sufficient for 1 level of Expert. In others it going to take a 4 year degree at least. Generally, however, in most cases I think a Master's degree would represent a...

    Turning the post-apoc in McWod up a notch...

    Or the Conflagration hits and everyone recognizes it for what it is, something utterly alien and horrific. However, the nations of the world decide that there is the possibility that this needs to be 'contained' or eliminated. After all, if you were a hostile foreign power and suddenly there...
