    You can't be creative in a buy point thread because you can only create one type of post.

    Which character should I make for this campaign?

    Dwarf Wiz8 Dour but intelligent. A little sensitive about his chosen profession. No Scottish accent, though. :)

    Using Wands

    If I'm a 2nd level cleric, can I use a wand with a 4th level cleric spell on it?

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    I'll reiterate why we will never reach consensus: mmu1 and his folks believe that the rules should be broken for the betterment of the players, to make sure everyone is having fun. The other side believes that the rules should not be broken, except in rare instances. Both are valid gaming...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    [/b] I can see the discussion now . . . DM: Let's see, jdavis, drnuncheon, and Mark are heroically fighting for their lives against the evil vampires. Elvinis75, mmu1, and Scarbonac are donning their armor. Elvinis75 to mmu1: If we complain long enough we'll get to don our armor faster...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    I'd like to be a player in Elvinis75's games. I'd always get what I wanted. I'd just complain that I wasn't having any fun and he'd bend over backwards to please me. :) I'm just kidding Elvinis75, but to me your position seems a bit unreasonable. If you've read the previous posts (I...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    This will never end . . . I realize Fus saw the underlying difference and posted a poll to talk about it, but it didn't click with me until I heard how how Tsyr and mmu1 would have handled the situation. I'm not making a value judgment here, just summarizing. Tsyr and mmu1 have basically...

    Blending Fantasy and Science-Fiction

    Although it's a pretty common idea, I like the idea of a post-apocalyptic world where technology is ancient and magic has preeminence. I always liked the cartoon, Thundar the Barbarian. Ukla(sp?) the Moc(sp?) rocked. :) That cartoon world had a great combination of science and fantasy...

    Wild Fighting

    Does the Wild Fighting feat from SaF require that you use a two-handed weapon? I forget. Thanks.

    Player wanting to play a Ghaele

    FWIW, my wife is playing a Ghaele in the campaign I'm DMing, and she hasn't outshined the other characters. She's almost 5th level now, so maybe it's still a little early to tell.

    Combat Casting

    I can give you a few good reasons why a houserule like this is a bad idea. First, you're not being fair to spell casters. Spell casters don't get that many feats to begin with, so forcing them to take this feat to cast in combat is a bit draconian, IMO. If you are going to force your spell...

    Take 20 on Open Lock?

    Failing a skill check is not the same as having a "penalty for failure". Nothing in the description of OL mentions that if you fail the check, you suffer a penalty. Since there's no penalty for failure, you can indeed take 20 on an Open Lock check. Lastly, the PH doesn't mention anything...

    Greater Combat Reflexes?

    I was reading about Improved Combat Reflexes and Greater Combat Reflexes in the lates Poly and I noticed that the Benefit section in both feats seems to be the same. Does anyone know what benefits GCR confers?

    Dungeon #99 - Is the end near?

    Yeah, you make some great points. I wonder how much of Dungeon's revenue comes from advertising? Could they afford to take the advertising hit if they reduced their printing costs significantly? If they did go the web/PDF route, then they might gain some advertising revenue from website ad...

    Dungeon #99 - Is the end near?

    After hearing that Dungeon might not be viable, I'll say that I'd gladly pay more for Dungeon/Poly, probably upwards of a buck or two per issue. I also like the idea of publishing Dungeon on the web in PDF format. That would cut costs dramatically.
