    Pathfinder 1E Paizo Copyright Issues at Obsidian Portal?

    Strunk & White is good for most formal writing, but is somewhat dated, and is not comprehensive. In this case, the implied phrases could be, among others (assuming singular masculine): - The hypocrisy is by him. - The hypocrisy is of his doing. - The hypocrisy is his. - He has committed...

    HOBBIT - Dwarf Pics

    If you don't like comic relief, you might want to stick with LOTOR. The Hobbit is a little... comic relief-y.

    In Defense of the Theory of Dissociated Mechanics

    That's not really a satisfying explanation from an in-game perspective. Joe the Hero: Wow, Ziggy, that was amazing! Can you do it again? Ziggy the Rogue: Uh, no. Joe the Hero: Why not? Ziggy the Rogue: I've, uh... exhausted my physical and mental resources. Joe the Hero: You mean you're tired...

    In Defense of the Theory of Dissociated Mechanics

    I was initially inclined to disagree with the position, as summarized in the OP, but after reading the article in its entirety, I think I agree more than I disagree. Clearly, 4e abstractly the entirety of combat to a greater degree than 3e abstracts even some individual attacks; even "shifted"...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo Copyright Issues at Obsidian Portal?

    I tend to be of a generous mind when it comes to IP, but if there's doubt in my mind about whether I should allow something, I would probably send a C&D. It doesn't actually cost me anything but a stamp or a quick email, nor does it injure the person receiving it. And if I actually had to take...

    "By who" is correct. In this case, who is standing in for the subject of the sentence. "By whom" would be correct if I was saying Hypocrisy was standing uncomfortably close to someone. Umbran: Duly noted. I missed the warning upthread.

    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    LOL I, of course, respectuflly disagree. And not every class gets Improved Uncanny Dodge, at least by default. I think the real question is: why doesn't the core monk get it? Monks are supposed to be ready for action, and if anyone should be able to avoid a flanking penalty, I think it would...

    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    That's a good idea. :) If you want a full-on base class that focuses on this concept, I fully endorse SteelDraco's version. I approached the idea several times, but every time I got down to the nitty gritty, I became dissatisfied. Either the class was fairly martial, in which I would imagine you...

    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    Archetypes are really just Alternate Class Features from Unearthed Arcana (3e). In fact, many of the classes in FoD are based around a similar concept, but in creating a new base class, I am free to do things like breaking up existing progressions or changing the skill list. The Corsair and its...

    [Tripod Machine] Conquest of the Universe

    Quite a few people are liking what they see. But I haven't gotten much feedback about what people do or don't like. Does anyone have any questions about the game or the setting?

    Conquest of the Universe RPG

    SWSE Galaxy Tiles?

    They're of good quality. Are they worth it? Well, honestly, I still ended up using my Chessex vinyl mat more often. It's your call.

    Eberron inconsistencies

    Obviously not very many. I don't see an inconsistency, unless the Knight Phantoms don't have the potential to be important.

    "He's beyond my healing ability..."

    Where does it say in the rules that a cleric has the magical power to stop people from dying?

    Mearls: Abilities as the core?

    WTH? My designs on Conquest of the Universe keep getting smaller and tidier, and then I read this: It's like he's peeking at my notes.
