Alignment So paladins must now be hardware-Windows? Druids must be one of Hardware-Unix, Software-Unix, Firmware-Windows, Firmware-Linix, or firmware-Unix?

More info! What skills does she have?

:eek: :eek: :eek: 32?!?!?! :eek: :eek: :eek:

I don't think they are more or less exciting, just differently exciting. Its sort of like playing Day Of Defeat (or CS) vs. playing America's Army. In DOD, the excitement is because you are constantly in the action, bullets are flying, etc. In AA, there isn't nearly as much firefighting; the...

Trade! I think it would be reasonable to trade some armor proficiencies for Weapon Finesse; if you are high dex you probably only want light armor at most anyway. I'd allow something like: -Heavy AP, MAP, +Weapon Finesse -Light AP, +Dodge Or maybe, -HAP, +WFinesse -MAP, +Dodge -LAP, +Combat...

Sounds reasonable, and 250 isn't that huge... though I'm not sure how easy it is to manuever around stuff in the underdark. I'm definitely going to use this for my players though. Seems so obvious now...

Well, perhaps not, but the intent is to provide DMs with options with all the implications thought out so nothing surprises them. Generally, power attacking is bad against mid-range creatures and good against creatures you only hit on a 20 or only miss on a one. I would like to know how much...

More options please! Um, would it be possible to add a "no preference option?" Or a, "I like to switch it up" option? As it is now, I can't vote truthfully.

Quantitative Analysis I'll do a quantitative analysis later, unless someone wants to do one for me. :D My random test case indicates the damage goes up by about 10% - noticeable but not overwhelming. However, because this increases the average damage by increasing just the outliers, this is...

From another thread about house rules: An Analysis of the effects of having all threats automatically confirmed: Qualitative: Obviously, critical hits are going to be more common. Damage output goes up, but more so against high-AC creatures (since it is normally harder to confirm crits...

loyalist vs. evangelist Well, I don't think these slides were targeted at us, and I think evangelist gives a better description of what they want. I think that while a loyalist is happy to help people learn D&D (passively recruiting, one might say), an evangelist is actively recruiting people...

Exposed capatalism no more than: or Which is to say, yes, but its part of this capatalist culture, and as far as making people want something they didn't use to and then selling it to them, I'd rather people buy D&D than cigarettes or McDonald's Happy Meals.

Elf Pudding? Never seen a double post with different text before... My only problem when I ran it was that it took longer than I had at first expected it would, though that was my first time DMing 3rd (and really, my first serious DMing in general). It was pretty good, as I recall, though I...

Divine Magic I don't think that they have to be doing it for others... even if they are nuetral, there is still good reason to help people - profit. Clerics of a god of profit, greed, commerce, or similar would cast spells for a price (they already do, in fact, as per the equipment chapter...

I don't prefer one over the other in general (but I like to switch it up a little) so I voted no preference. I'd prefer to get in a little of each at least every once in a while.

let's be friends ? That is contradictory; do you believe that it is independant, or do you believe that it has some effect? Sure, but there seems to be this belief that the disadvantages have to be mechanical - which would imply that one can't roleplay depth, one must have it mechanically...

miscomunication Sorry for the miscomunication; I wasn't refering to this thread. I meant the threads like "is Xfeat balanced?" or "fix the Xclass." It can, but balance can't make it worse, and it could make it better.

Balance facilitates good games; base D&D is pretty close to balanced. If balance is irrelavant to people, then they can just use/ignore balance house rules and not contribute to balance discussions. The most annoying thing is people coming into balance threads* and proclaiming that balance...

True dedication Can't a fighter be totally devoted to becoming the greatest killing machine? The wizard to being the most powerful spellcaster to ever stride the multiverse? The paladin to being the greatest weapon against evil? I think these are all just as valid characters for roleplaying as...
