    Common sense

    Never happens to me...98% of the time I use RAW, the other times I use house rules which I have picked up from other games or from here at ENW. But come off it people, this is a game. There will always be things which don't work "right" regardless of which system or mechanic you use. So, pick...

    Weapon Finesse and Unarmed Attacks

    Hi all, A simple question, could a monk, with a low strength, gain the bonuses that is normally granted with weapon finesse for their unarmed attacks? It's not listed in the PhB when I was reading the feat, but what could be more of a "light weapon" than no weapon at all. Thanks in advance to...

    WOTC ad - insulting to gamers?

    I think it's a funny ad. And it appeals to both sides of the gaming genre, both those who see and want D&D as a social game with friends as well as a lot of closet gamer geeks who may not get together live with other people...but want that "pseudo-fantasy" experience whether they first got it...

    Sorcerers in your game

    Two basic changes: eschew material feat for free at first level. They can also take expanded knowledge feat, similiar to the psionics' version, then they may take one cleric, druidic, bardic, whatever else's spells as castable spell of the same level. There are some no-no's, but if they want...

    5 foot step between attackers

    The player was making a smart move as he was moving out of the way in order to allow his comrades to move forward as he was essentially in a bottleneck. I didn't think under the circumstance that a five foot step should be allowed as he was being covered by the two goblins; and even when I...

    5 foot step between attackers

    Hi all, Hope some of you can help me determine if I made an error in my ruling. A player (position P) was caught in a right angle between two enemies (Position X). He tried to use his five foot step to move between the two enemies (position 1). As the DM i ruled that because he attempted to...

    Weapons of Legacy: does anyone have it yet?

    I have it and I really, really like it. The little mini quests, lots of new stories with built in lore DCs and some fun and interesting magic items, I thought it had some great game mechanics. But it shines in terms of the way of the story. It always bothered me that players were always finding...

    <little question about> Psychic Characters

    In my last campaign, there was a time when we were running at 60%...now we are down to 20%. Two of the five players prefer them to standard spellcasters, so they are used quite a bit.

    Can the rules do this?...

    You're right, the feat is called pushback. You need a strength of 17, Imp Bull Rush and Power Attack, it's a specialized bull rush which doesn't provoke an AoO and pushes your opponent back by five feet.

    How much concern do you have with PC death?

    X factor. Sometimes it is due to a continuing plot threat. Sometimes it is where in the game it happens (deep in the dungeon, no convenient way to introduce a new PC conveniently.) Sometimes it is who died, as in the player spent 2 weeks working on the character, bought a new book, and we...

    Computer at the game table?

    It is slower for low level encounters, but once you hit hid-levels, it's great for keeping track of a dozen or more enemies.

    Does setting really matter in your games? (and how to make it matter more)

    It depends. If you like a good dungeon crawl, killin things and takin stuff, then no, ultimately what you are killing isn't as important as the body count and the loot. If you like intrigue, diplomacy, social interaction, religion, moral dilemmas, and enemies that you cannot defeat with swords...

    Do you Read all the books?

    Yes, the PHB more than once. The DMG section on combat rules on a continual basis, as my intrepretation always seem to be off from the players, so I want to refamiliarize myself with the rules every 3-4 weeks, especially if I have an NPC or monster that will use a particular feat or combat...

    What is the median level of the population of your gameworld?

    For 0 level races, I tend to make the median around 5th level. That means they'll face tons of 0 and 1st level members, and very few 15th level, and it averages to around 5th. Most non-adventurers tend to be between 4th-6th level experts. Two knife jabs, one sword thrust or just about any spell...
