My choices Well, difficult to choose if one knows no details about the campaign, but here are some choices that should work well in most circumstances: Defense - mage armor - protection from evil Attack - sleep - ray of enfeeblement - magic weapon Utility - charm person - comprehend...

Sure. Why wouldn't it?

Maybe I'm reading something wrong but I think the Half-ogre template in Dragon 313 (not 314) is sort of broken. If you apply it to a human for example it gets +14 to its Strength (+ 8 due to size increase and +4 racial modifier) according to the decription. So a half-human/half-ogre would be...

If he has a lot of ranks in Bluff (most rogues "I've met" would fall into this category), than Improved Feint (3.5 PHB) is a must. What feats does he already have?

Your system is far too complicated for my taste. I don't know whether I would leave a group just because of this (not, if everything else is okay), but I wouldn't like this rule, that's for sure. When I DM, we do it similar to what Henry wrote. IMO it isn't worth it making it too complicated...

Hi all! I must admit, I don't see the problem. If a player wants to lie to the people in the gameworld (and in this case, it isn't even a lie, it is at most an exaggeration) than let him do it and if it bothers you than deal with it "in-game". One way to go would be that he is summoned by the...

"Have a wizzy ready an empowered fireball just before the rogue opens the door." No readying as long no initiative has been rolled. You might get a surprise round though.

I'm playing a similar character right now. My build is: Ftr3/Rog3/Wiz1/BladesingerX. Currently: Ftr1/Rog2/Wiz1 This works better with the pre-CW version of the Bladesinger than with the new one.

The Hungarian translations of the corebooks use miles, feet and inches, although the metric system is in use in RL. (I think this is okay, miles and so have a more medieval feeling.) We during game use a strange mix of imperial and metric mesures. In dungeons and similar environment we usually...

The way I see it, it works this way: The first option (items get affected when you roll a natural 1 on your saving throw) refers to a situation when the spell doesn't directly target said object. Example: You get hit by a fireball and roll a 1. One of your items can get destroyed. The second...

How would you deal with this situation? Let's assume I wan't to stick to the WotC rules about the suggested level of PC equipment. A character dies, and his stuff gets redistributed amongst the survivors. Then the player brings in a new character, who would have new equipment according to his...

My halforc-halfogre Here is my personal version of the half-orc/half-ogre I created for my gameworld. I started out by using the half-ogre template from Dragon (can't remember which issue, sometime last autumn or summer?), but then made changes since the result with the template would simply...

I basically agree with most what Turjan wrote. I just wanted to point out, that the Slavonic languages weren't so differenciated as now. Well, there were, but in a different way. The Poles called themselves Poles, and the Serbs Serbs and so on, but neither the Byelorussians, nor the Ukrainians...

CW51! I think your houserule is okay.

That's not what I meant. I meant that if in his game world all people in present day Spain would speak Spanish (and Catalonian) and all people in France would speak French and all people in Italy would speak Italian, than this wouldn't be historically accurate, but in my opinion would be okay...

Dead of Winter This is one I allways recommend: The DEad of Winter. It appeared on the CD which came with my 3.0 PHB together with a Demo of the Character Generator Program. I think it's a very good module, with plenty of roleplaying opportunities and many things besides. It's for 2nd level...

Demonologist from Demonology: the Dark Road from Mongoose can be taken at 2nd level. Its prerequisites are Spell Mastery and knowledge of Draconic.

"Right after Buenos Aires is destroyed and Sky Marshall Dienes announces plans for an offensive on Klandathu. The next scene is a "live" broadcast on the Battle Station Ticonderoga, that is when you'll see "Countdown to Victory"." Thanks Krieg. Than it must be Starship Troopers. What a...

It must be Starship Troopers I think it's pretty clear that it is Starship Troopers. A few years have passed, since I've last seen the film, but I'm quite sure that this quote: "Countdown to Victory begins. . ." is from the Starship Troopers movie. (I copied the quote from Psion's post)...

Re: Languages I'll try to give some advice for the languages. There were many more languages in medieval Europe than today. In France for example, people in the south spoke provancal (or occitan, I think this is the same kanguages), In Brittany breton and so on. People from different parts of...
