    Excalibur

    There are 3 main versions of the legend. In one, Excalibur was pulled from the stone. In the second, Excalibur was given him by the Lady of the Lake after the sword he pulled from the stone was broken. In the third version, the author sort of combines them by saying the sword pulled from the...

    Excalibur

    Do you want it to be a normal magic item or do you want it in the realm of artifacts.? By the book, artifacts can stack bonuses over +10 and usually have more unique powers...tho apart from smiting already suggested, I have no ideas for :P I agree that it should be at least +3 weapon and...

    Belt of... argh!

    Sword and Fist does have a Headband of Perfect Excellence which provides a +6 to Str, Dex, and Wis for 180K. A very rich monks dream!

    Official Books vs Unofficial: Your group's standard is?

    We use alomost exclusively WotC. Like others have said, its mostly because those are the only books we own. Other sources, including homebrewed, are always at least looked at and considered by the various DMs and allowed on case-by-case basis. That being said, the DMs like to know what we plan...

    Cool new product you may find useful

    While a template for fireball radius is especially useful, the price on these things are rediculous. I built one out of some short sticks of bass wood, some scrap carboard, and a hot glue gun in about 10-15 minutes. Total cost about a 60 cents. We haven't found any need for a cone as yet so I...

    Weapon Equality

    Interresting thread going here, and I think reanjr's solution works well if you're going for a set of weapon build rules. I am curious as to why you chose 2-handed weapons to gain 3 build points by that method. And I just have one other question: How do ranged weapons factor into all of this...

    Attacking Squirrels in DnD

    Maybe the tiny fuzzy creatures have some crazy racial dodge bonus. Like +8 dodge against everything larger than it, except when the large creatures weild holy hand grenades.

    Reality in fantasy... how much is too much?

    Yeah, many reality sacrifices must be made for the sake of maintaining simple rules, or simply the flow of a game. Just the fact that D&D is turn based means much of the reality in combat goes right out the window. Other things, well...it's magic from a long lost spell.

    Give unto me your table rules

    I don't have a written set of rules, mostly cause our group doesnt have many issues. But I do have some things I definately encourage. Pretty standard stuff it looks like. 1) Keep OOC game chatter to a minimum durring combat. Some quick suggestions are fine, but I hate it when there's a 5...

    Best Gaming room and Game table setups!

    Yep, it's official. I lost the photos of the completed table, so I'll have to retake them next time we play. Fortunately, I did still have the 3D computer model I used to design the thing. So I Took a lil time to apply some materials to the model and export some images. Here's what we hoped it...

    The True Rule 0.

    Agreed. I am plenty willing to susped many of the technical realities in favor of keeping things simple and keeping the game moving. I understand that sometimes situations just aren't covered and they need to be dealt with, or it could be nice to include, but anything more complicated than the...

    Monk help

    Since Yig did a good job in answering the rules specifics, I'll just add a few thoughts about what to expect. However, I will clarify shuriken by mentioning that they are considered ammunition for the purposes of drawing them so it is a free draw, and thus you can attack with as many of them as...

    The Dwarven Defender - Is it worth it?

    Yeah, it's a great PRC....just not so much for a PC. It's a shame too cause it's a pretty cool concept. So often movement is very much needed in combat, and if your at your best when you cant move(or not much anyway), that poses a liability in most cases. More often than not,as an adventurer...

    Collateral damage

    Perhaps it would be better to not focus on specific objects, but do focus on the amount of rubble(and the rules associated with it) and things that end up on the floor because of these broken objects. I dont know if you need a specific table to define things, but make a judgement call on how...
