    Whatever do you mean? Haven't you always been a pirate? ;)

    NC Game Day XIII (April 21-22): aka "Mini-GenCon"

    Mark is the picking-people-up Ninja. Well, to be precise he's the circling-for-an-hour-at-the-airport-because-us-air-is-stupid-picking-people-up-Ninja, but a Ninja is a Ninja, eh?

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    Well, my SWSG book is officially on pre-order with overnight shipping. It'll be a touch tight, I'm sure, but I think everything will go swimmingly. One thing that I am thinking is that the tone will be a touch gritter than normal star wars, more empire strikes back than return of the jedi. Will...

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    The after game day dinner is one of the highlights of the NC Game Day. I highly recommend it. Count me in for that as well.

    D&D 4E Star Wars Saga Edition as preview of 4e?

    That argument doesn't really hold water for Star Wars. Lots of sci-fi has this concept where everyone knows a little bit about everything. Star Wars has this, where everyone knows how to pilot a spacecraft or hack a computer. To get that feeling in game, everyone needs to have a certain level...

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    Kahuna, please add me to your morning CoC game and I'll grab that Saturday afternoon DMing slot if it's still open. Plan on it being a Star Wars: Saga Edition game with 4-6 players. If we don't get enough players, we can all be Jedi Ponies :D.

    KahunaCon (Providence area gameday) June 2nd and 3rd!

    Star Wars: Saga Edition comes out right before this. Would anyone be interested in a Star Wars game? I've been wanting to try out the system and this looks like a great opportunity.

    Ridiculous amount of buffs

    Would it be too weird to consolidate the buffs into a handful of spell chains? Like an armor chain of 1st, 3rd, 5th, etc. spell level that grants a increasing flat AC bonuses and eventually DR effects. Have one that goes from blur -> imp. invisibility and one for attacks that eventually includes...

    Kahunacon III, May 19&20 or June 2&3?

    I should be able to do either. I'll forward along to my gaming groups so they can weigh in if they so choose.

    Old PCs as NPCs

    Haven't yet had the chance to really do it, but I've been a player in a campaign where an old PC agreed to come back as an undead servant to an evil BBEG. That was quite a battle.

    Complexity of an Attack: examples?

    Should've used a lance :). With spirited charge that's 3d8+84+5d6. I have a War Mind that can have so many different buffs active at a given time that I have pages of pre-calced stats based on different sets of buffs. It still takes me forever to attack due to changes from buff spells from the...

    I know it was a joke but...(complete riding dog)

    Since I'm playing a halfling paladin/fighter/cavalier charge monkey, I'd love to see something along those lines. I'm constantly looking for ways to keep my riding dog alive. But I agree with Argent Silvermage, I think it would be a better book if it covered cohorts and companions of all types.

    Would you say no to Druid Shapeshifter + Warshaper?

    The warshaper does have a BAB requirement, actually (BAB +4), so it was pretty easy to get into the class before 10th. Min entry levels are Drd6, Sor8, Wiz8 for the core rules. That was sort of how I felt at first. I can't even imagine giving up the high level druid spells, but this player is...

    Would you say no to Druid Shapeshifter + Warshaper?

    I'm not a big fan of saying no to my players during character creation unless I'm fairly certain that what they're asking for is unbalanced. This seemed like one of those times, what do you think? A player came to me with a character concept for our new campaign (I'm being lazy and running...

    NC Game Day XIII (April 21-22): aka "Mini-GenCon"

    Wow, I've been called out :). I'm split 3 ways from...well...Sunday over Sunday's games. I would love to take a crack at Pielorinho's game, but I think it will run too long (meeting the folks for lunch and need to be at the airport by 3:30). I think I might get to play in AA's game anyway (using...

    NC Game Day XIII (April 21-22): aka "Mini-GenCon"

    Hey scholz! Didn't know if you were still in the area or not. My biggest regret from last gameday was not grabbing lunch with you and Belen. We've got to get a bite this time. Heck, I'm buying.

    Staggered Arrival of Combatants

    I do it as well for all the reasons above plus: it's a good way to design encounters when you don't know how difficult the encounter will be. You can send in a bigger boss with the first wave of foes and add, or not add, extra mooks depending on how well the PCs are doing.
