    Intimidate

    I have a character who has picked up a lot of ranks in intimidate, and I have no idea what can be done with intimidate. Depending on the interpretation, Intimidate can be one of the most powerful skills in the game, or basically useless. Any advice on how to adjucate this?

    Game of Death continuation thread 1

    Well, that was painful. Did I ever mention how much I hate prismatic spells? Because I do. HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE! We now return to your regularly scheduled violence.

    That's good. 24 hours for us and 72 for you were a little unrealistic anyway with this many players, but at least your trying and sticking fairly close to the schedule. As long as you can get in more than a turna month I'll be happy, and of course as there's more attrition, especially in my...

    On a completely unrelated note, while Number 47 maps are the best thing since 3.0 Haste, Harm and Heal, do you think you could put in a link to the top of round 2? It's just more convienient than scrolling through 23 maps.

    Game of Death continuation thread 1

    It says right on page 218 of the Monster Manual under Special Qualities that Alternate Form, that is to say any animal or hybrid form, is Supernatural. So unfortunately you do not pass go, do not collect 200 gold pieces, and you need to make some rather drastic character changes. Unless it was...

    Hello all, just sent in my move, because I was out of the loop for a couple of days, but wow! Number 47, I can almost forgive you for totally FUBARizing my army because those maps are friggin amazing. Of course I'll still have to take it out of you in blood. :) This looks like a really good...

    Ron Weasley DIES in new Harry Potter book!!!!

    In a completely unrelated story, J R Rowling has turn over control of the Harry Potter series to George R R Martin, who has promised to approach it with the same degree of intensity and realism that he uses in his own series A Song of Ice and Fire. Fans expect the 'Red Quidditch Match' scene to...

    [Epic] For all you math majors out there

    Could someone post the pattern. I don't have the ELH, but I do have a TI-83 and a year just spent doing this kinda stuff. Maybe I'll get luckier. [EDIT] What you need is a ExpReg function. Input the values in the List normally, and then hit second, Stat, Calc and scroll down to ExpReg, it's...

    Paladin Warhorse

    I'll be running it two ways depending on if the Paladin has his horse. If he has his horse, let's say he's riding between towns, then calling his Mount will invigorate the horse he's riding, make it look bigger, stronger, what have you. If he doesn't have his horse, then it enters in an...

    Roleplaying as a Teaching Aid

    The Latin teacher at my school plays, well, not really D&D, but sort of a rules-lite version of it in his Friday classes. The characters and group interaction are a little odd, but they do use a lot of Latin, even if it's along the lines of "I cast fireball and hit him with my staff" rather...

    Great Prestige class I found on another board....

    It's dang powerful, a 4th level human rogue or bard could enter into this class and get Fighter BAB progression and Monk Saves, as well as all the pimp slap abilities and Fists of Dolomite at 10th. A Pimp would be able to shreda lot of the opposition, and a few levels of Fighter to pick up the...

    WANTED Melee class that can stand up APPLY WITHIN

    Go with a Dwarf Barbarian or Fighter. Heavy Armor, Shield, and a Battle-axe. You may not get to the fight any time soon, but once your there you'll end it pretty quickly. Another good one is the Human mounted Fighter or Paladin. A horse and lance can give you the mobility to really take it...

    Preparing for the Elemental Plane of Water

    The best way to do this that I can see is sneak style. Load your fastest, most underwater capable character with every stealth and defense item you can get your hands on, put the rest of the party in a Portable Hole with a Bottle of Air, and run. Or see about making some sort of submarine. The...

    What weaponry are your villains using now?

    One of my favorite weapon/enemy combo are followers of Hextor armed with Heavy Flails. PCs really don't like dropping their weapons, and trip is deadly when the tripee is outnumbered.

    Do Your Characters Engage in Slavery?

    I think my players would torture them all to death before they got back to civilization. Doesn't say such good things about my players...

    My group needs to feel pain

    Here's my evil rat-bastard tactic +9. Have them go through a grid of large pillars seperated by 10' wide corridors. It should look something like this. ooooooooooooooo oxxooxxooxxooxxo oxxooxxooxxooxxo x=pillar ooooooooooooooo o=road ooooooooooooooo oxxooxxooxxooxxo oxxooxxooxxooxxo...

    Dwarf Military Maxims, Expressions, and Exclamations

    Superior numbers are no match for superior training. Hold the *Expletive* *Expletive* *Expletive* line! One dwarf underneath a wall is worth ten humans above. When the enemy won't break, add more coal to the forge. Elves pursue their enemies, we kill them where they stand. The only good...

    Fun stuff to do with illusions

    The classic is having an illusion of you summoning some incredibly powerful creature, like a Balor or Dragon. Another good use for an illusion would be luring guards out of place, making quick roadblocks so you could strike an ambush. A really fun thing to do if you have prep time is to cover...

    D&D 3.x 3E D&D Knife Thrower: How do you build it?

    I'd go with a Halfling. Halflings get a racial bonus to dex, thrown weapons, and a +1 attack bonus thanks to size, meaning that compared to a human the halfline has +3 to attacks. While being one feat behind will hurt compared to the human with a Feat heavy build like the knife thrower, this...
