    Unbalanced Player Characters?

    I wouldn't know how the psionic would go, but your shifter (eventually) will be hard to deal with. Not overly powerful, neccesarily, but annoying to deal with. Be prepared to deal with any number of circumstances. Swashbuckler - I'd suggest a race with better charisma. A swashbuckler with no...

    Are you a stingy DM?

    I thought I was stingy, levelling them at once every 2-3 four hour sessions. And I'm a GM who focuses on getting combat over with quickly. Yes, you are a stingy GM. But to be honest, its the way to be. People honestly shouldn't 'level' so quickly - once I had a fighter/mage type who levelled...

    Tobruk, 1941 - Help!

    Lions? Bah! Give me Union any day. As for new players: I'm willing to give it a shot, but I'd prefer to have a few beers at the pub telling bad D+D jokes first. Or some other friend-making venue. talk to me at mh.baker@student.qut.edu.au if you happen to be keen.

    Tobruk, 1941 - Help!

    Aaron2: Its interesting, but (I think) mostly due to the hard/soft defensive tactic used. Lightening attacks left a lot of soldiers behind, vunerable to machine gun fire from the Red line. They surrendered, logically. Not to say their weren't raids or anything, which doubtless netted quite a...

    The Dread Legion Advances...(Updated 08/02/2005)

    Dred legion? Shouldn't it be Dread Legion? Thats far cooler. And doesn't remind me of Invadors. Five dollars to the man who gets THAT one. But other than that, it looks excellent :D:D. I'm in to read the second installment alright.

    Tobruk, 1941 - Help!

    Answer 1: Yep, godlike it is. Awkward due to the fact I was trying to avoid saying it, but still. Answer 2: I realised this only afterwards. As it is, they get to have the wonders of 50 degrees celcius, concrete bunkers, fleas, crabs, boredom and chlorinated tea described to them. War is hell...

    Tobruk, 1941 - Help!

    Hey guys! I'm running a WW2 campaign set in Tobruk, as you might have guessed. The characters are all aussies, and so far the game has been an absolute blast - in a fairly 'high realism' for superheroes, at anyrate. It's gritty and nasty. I've run a number of successful missions - the players...

    Just going along with the DM

    Work with the DM? Always. The point is that your adventurers and heroes! You want a loner, angsting, forced-into-heroism character, play vampire, you weak necked sissies! Conan spits on you! But - the DM should always know the players abilities, and adjust for them. If they have teleport...

    A real two-bladed sword!

    I think we all agree with the fact that pretty much all double-swords are useless. And to be honest, I wouldn't like to try a double knife, though I'm mainly a single-handed type of guy. Give me a bucker any day. Earlier on in the thread there was some nonsense about a downward cut, followed...

    What was your first D&D session like?

    My first time? A friend of mine in school - oh, about year 11 or so - were computer gaming geeks for a long time. I didn't have the slightest as to what D+D was, but he was keen so we were both keen on setting up a game. It went on and on, and I eventually just bought The Adventure Begins Here...

    Player Problems with Character Wealth

    Cop an earful? Take it all away, and laugh at their lamentations as you throw them CR higher than the standard. It sounds like your players don't get the idea of heroism. It's called laughing in the face of danger because it's DANGER! What fun is the game if they have the wand of slaying...

    2nd world war

    I'll have a look for yonder book, but I doubt my local gaming store would have one. It's a pity. *blinks* Ahh, the mous. What a very masculine tank to use.

    Teaching the spousal unit D&D

    Well, I have been trying to get the gf into gaming for awhile. To begin with, she was a bit iffy, and not really understanding of the rules - and despite being an absolute fantasy fan, she wasn't too keen on a 1-1 forgotten realms, so I gave it a miss. Then I bought Godlike, and told her how...

    2nd world war

    Australians should get + 4 to every statistic. They are known as the best fighters, after all :D On a side note, I give all my aussie characters 1 free skill in mental stability, BECAUSE THEIR AUSSIES! *coughs* But yes. How would you cover the different races? stat adjustments don't really...

    2nd world war

    Well, I'm currently going through the opening stages of something like this. www.onwar.c om is a good site for maps, tanks and so on. Unfortunately, it doesn't have anything on north africa, which is where I'm setting my campaign. :(. Those tank stats look nice and realistic. Also: Godlike...
