    Help Me Price This Weapon

    I like your thinking of making it a +1 bonus since it's only a special circumstance drain. If I were just to make it a flat drain of 2D6 when used against any kind of character I would say it's a +2 minimum. Thank you Kapture Mr. Beef

    Help Me Price This Weapon

    I just checked my DMG 3.5 and it says it costs an additional 2,000gp for any magical enhancements for Cold Iron; so it would be a minimum of of 10,000gp to make it Holy, 8,000gp for the +2 Weapon Damage/Hit Bonus, 300gp for Masterwork, and Double Base Cost 30 for the Cold Iron Longsword. 10,000...

    Help Me Price This Weapon

    I have been looking through the Ptolus book on and off since I got it and I was wondering how much a weapon similar weapon would be for one of the NPC characters. The weapon in Ptolus is a +2 Cold Iron Holy Bastard Sword that has the ability to transfer the Holy damage it inflicts to the...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    Seeing this just had this pop into my head. Undead squrrel army. :D The idea came from the TV show Scrubs. The character of The Janitor on Scrubs had what he liked to call a squrrel army of taxidermied squirrels. He traded the squirrel army to another guy for a taxidermied dog that looked...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    Eating Dinner right now. My younger brother has Discovery Science Channel on right now and they are showing "How It's Made." A TV show that shows how things are made. How unique. :lol: This weekend I have to equip the characters that I made for my story hour. 49,000 gp to spend for each of...

    Help me design a Wayfarer prestige class (now in its third iteration)

    It looks good to me, but I'm not big on designing Prestige Classes. I have a tendency to make ones that have already been made or make them too weak or too powerful. Is there a reason that it's only eight levels instead of the standard five or ten levels? That's the first thing I picked up on...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    South and West Texas you can do that with no insect trouble. Well West Texas has a lack of hammock trees, but other than that it's good for a lack of insects. North and East Texas have trees, but insects all over. I hate mosquitos and we've got some here as big as moth's. :D My Spring Break...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    I'm not either, but every day this week my body insists on waking up at 7:00am no matter when I fall asleep. When I was house sitting back in December 2006 and January 2007 I would fall asleep at 11:00pm or 12:00am and get up at 9:00am that morning. I used to get up at 5:30am to be at work by...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    I hate being sick. Sick is no fun. Get to feeling better Galeros. It could be worse though. You could be like my English Professor who broke a toe out of the clear blue. She was just at home one night and noticed that her left big toe hurt and she went to the doctor two weeks ago and they...

    Need Help Mounting Plastic Mini's on Bases.

    Five years of orders is good for an on-line company. With all of your good experiences with the company I'll have to see if I can order from them. Thanks for pointing them out. Who steals from someone's porch in the middle of the day? We've had 12 packs of sodas stolen off our porch at night...

    Need Help Mounting Plastic Mini's on Bases.

    I'll have to see if the hobby stores I have around me have Zap-A-Gap for sale and have a modeler on staff. Most of the ones they have here in Dallas are chains and there are few if any independant hobby stores around here. The chains generally hire personnel that specialize in things like...

    Need Help Mounting Plastic Mini's on Bases.

    Hi rowport. I saw those on the Games Workshop site last night and thought, "Where were those when I needed them." Using an X-Acto at the time was the way that I found on the MK Realms and it worked well the first few times that I did it, and it was shortly after that when WizKids changed the...

    Need Help Mounting Plastic Mini's on Bases.

    Hey nyrfherdr. I'll look into Zap-A-Gap at hobby stores around here. I'd rather pay the 8.25% sales tax on it rather than having to pay $4.95 minimum on shipping from somewhere like Games Workshop. I've heard about pinning for things like posing arms and legs and mounting weapons and staff's...

    Need Help Mounting Plastic Mini's on Bases.

    I'll look at this as soon as I get done. Thanks for the tip. I'm not planning on using slot bases because the Mage Knight mini's I'm getting are generally flat plastic on the base, rather than the metal bar to hold them on the base. Unless you are talking about ones that have small mounting...

    The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

    I used to be into those "investigate the crime" shows, but I'm into comedy now. My favorite is Scrubs. It runs 4 times a day on Comedy Central (6 on Monday), twice on WGN during the late night weekdays, and in syndication. The only other shows I watch regularly are The Daily Show with Jon...

    Need Help Mounting Plastic Mini's on Bases.

    This is my first post on the Miniatures, Art, and Cartography board, so please be gentle. A long time ago I used to take Mage Knight mini's off their bases, strip the factory paint, and repaint them, and it was good practice. I was a below-average painter when I accidentally sliced my left...

    Reaper to produce pre-painted Plastic minis - Non-random

    Rich, Thanks for the link. I had totally forgotten about that set. I might get some from you, but I just have to get over the fact that they are random, and find something to mount them on. I also have to see how much I'll have at the end of the month so I know how much I'll be able to...

    Reaper to produce pre-painted Plastic minis - Non-random

    I just clicked on the link and the prices are rather reasonable for pre-painted, plastic generic enemy's for a game. I just wish they had pictures of what they looked like. I'm a so-so painter, but I really cannot get as detailed as some of the Warhammer people who have been doing it for...

    What are your thoughts on ANIME's influence on D&D?

    The hair on the male in the top picture looks more windblown rather than spikey. They also look more like halflings rather than humans so they might be a bit different race wise. That second picture is what I call classic D&D artwork. Something that just shows off the awesome grandure of what...

    What are your thoughts on ANIME's influence on D&D?

    I used to like anime back in my younger days, but since about 2003, I have found that with the exception of the rare few that were on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim; Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw Star, I have not found a single anime that I liked. I'll occasionally whip out my Robotech DVD's because I...
