Depends on your interpretation of the rules. It states that the character is frozen in place and allies cannot move his limbs. But can allies push him over, which would end up causing the paralyzed victim to be prone? I also think it is a question of balance so if the character was position...

That was hilarious. I think they violated many of their own code of ethics. I love #18 since LARPing is now considered just as mainstream as tabletop versions.

Not arguing that Paizo completely over powered the Ninja class, just stating the obvious that the Ninja is basically a Rogue that focuses on stealth while loosing the trap finding/sense aspect of the class. Take a rogue add a lot of mystical (magical) effects that revolve around stealth and call...

Prone does not necessarily equal helpless, especially in the scenario given. In this case I agree that the rogue's evasion is just as effective while prone in this situation as it would be if he was standing up.

Princess Ark Stories were awesome. At the time I was mainly using the Rules Cyclopedia with the D&D gazeteers and it was nice to see a regular column in Dragon catering to that system in a round about way. Read some of your posts from your blog and it is a shame what WoTC is doing about some...

Per Rogue Class Description for the Rogue Talent in question So for this instance, though standing is a free action, it does provoke if an opponent is within range to threaten.

I agree, the imitations were hilarious and Sheldon's response to them were just as funny. I know I am bias based off of the content of the episode but IMO one of the best episodes of the season. Only complaint I have is it looks like they were using 4th edition (my least favorite edition of...

ya think? It was a bit of a rhetorical statement. There is a 3rd party 3.5 book that might actually have such a chart, but I don't think I would want to play in a campaign where that particular resource would be used.:p

Just watched onDemand and the episode was awesome. Only complaint was the idea that the DM makes all the rolls. Where the heck does this idea come from? I think they did the same thing in the Community episode a year or two back. I have never played in a game where the DM made all the rolls...

Missed this episode (maybe catch in onDemand later). Honestly, any main stream media acknowledgement of the game or even RPG genre is a good thing, even if it is done in a mocking way. After all it is just a game. Is there a culture or sub-culture connected to it? Sure, just like MMO gamers...

You can clothe a "ninja" in western apparel, but the flavor is definitely oriental starting with the Ki Pool, Ki (chi) being an oriental/eastern religious/martial concept. Not an expert or anything but taken enough karate and watched enough kung-fu theatre to know that much, definitely an...

Compared to 3.5, the pathfinder rogue version is much more versitile when it comes to combat. Sure, they are still skill monkeys but with a d8 instead of a d6 they are a little more robust and the sneak attack ability to arbitrarily add 1d6+ dice damage from a single attack isn't too shabby...

I agree that any new movie should not strive for "Epic". Give us a simple straightforward story arc with relatible characters with maybe just a few suggestions (nothing heavy handed) that something larger is going on. If it is done right it leaves the door open for further sequels that people...

Rogues are definitely a threat in Pathfinder if done right. Even if you drop a fireball on your sniper PC, with Evasion he probably won't even get singed. Need to drop a spell on him with a Fort saving throw like Cloudkill. ;)

Also, although standing up is a free action on the rogues part, it does provoke attacks of opportunity. Just have a few opponents sneak up or appear behind him when he decides to do the pop up and fire routine.

My understanding is that "free" actions are not limited to once a round (upon DM discretion) so if they are really a free action then I supposed he could do both. What special ability gives the rogue the ability to stand up from prone as a free action? Is it a free action or a swift action...

Well Courtney Solomon did produce Bullet to the Head, the last Sly Stallone movie. Didn't see it and had no desire to see it but at least it made it to the big screen. Looks like a majority of the stuff he produces goes straight to DVD or streaming (Universal Soldier sequels, honestly haven't...

Would rather see another Gamers sequel. That way at least I am aware that the intent was to make fun of the genre and those that partake. I think Paramount should counter strike and sign a movie deal with Paizo for a Pathfinder movie (the game not that Vikings vs Native Americans movie that...

I could definitely see a fortitude save (low DC 10 or 8 maybe) for living creatures with 2 HD or less (that are not goblins) that get hit with flaming poop or become nauceous or possibly sickened for a round or two, plus the poop would stick so an additional point of flame damage for an...

10 hours to go, wonder what the odds are of getting at the $75K level? I am in for $50 which is all PDFS, but if the $75K is reached printed copies as well, guess I can dream.
