    3.5? Bah. 3.0

    You mean like Utrecht???? Actually this is pretty typical of most big vs small cities. For example it is why New York is called "The City" and America stops at the East River...... But back on topic - why is WoTC getting the blame here? I am guessing that they would happily sell FLGS 3.0...

    Holy crap! I critted a demon!

    As a DM, I loooooove Crit charts - as a player, I hate them - after all what is good for the goose is good for the gander.......... (and as the DM all my creatures are inherintly disposable anyway - so having one critted is no big whoop) Granted they do make for some awsome cinimatic moments -...

    [3.5] All, Some or None?

    We are starting a new campaign - so there is none of the conversion stuff we have to worry about. That being said, I will take most of the 3.5 rules - some I feel are fixing issues that were fine in my mind. Additionally, I am going to be fixing some things that I thought 3.5 should have...

    Correct - More correctly, the PC would need to have enough EXP to get to Level 25 in order become gain thier 13th Class Level.

    (OT) Any vegans out there?

    I would also suggest that you look into taking some cooking classes. IME, the biggest drawback of vegan/vegetarian food is that it tends towards blandness. One of the biggest advantages of meat is that when it cooks, the protiens and fats break down in such a way to easily create flavor. With...

    different style?

    I am going to second the whole Riddle thing. If I want to challenge my brain, I would subscribe to Games Magazine. Second, Riddles are ironically enough the anti-thesis of Role-Playing since suddenly you are utilizing the Players mental stats and not the PCs.

    battlemaps vs raaaaaaange

    In addition to the dice thing I have also changed the scale at a certain distance from the PCs. Thus, for the 20 or so squares around the PC's the scale is 1' = 5" Beyond those 20 squares 1' = 20" In effect having an in melee scale and a ranged scale simultaneously.

    Thumbs up for the EN World Players Journal

    I just picked up Issue 1 from my FLGS and have to say that for the money, this is one of the absolute best RPG purchases I have made. I suspect that in many ways, this is what many people hoped that Dragon would be. I especially found usefull the articles on: - Drinking Rules- While not...

    Need Help Refining Campaign Ideas

    Well, I have always had a difficult time figuring out what postion the gnomes filled out in the races..... They have alwys seemed an amalgamation of Elves and Dwarves - and since I have never had anyone play a gnome - they were the ones easist to eliminate. Also, I am planning to introduce...

    Fantasy Flights Small Gods system from Path of Faith

    I am in the process of creating a campaign heavily infused with Spirits and see the Path of Faith/Spells and Spellcraft Small Gods system as a potential way of governing their use. My question is has anybody else used them and what feedback do you have about the system.

    Dwarf Island

    Have you considered a fresh/brackish version of the Sahaugin? While each group may dislike eachother - they all agree that the terror from the deep is the true evil

    Need ideas on FR evils campaign

    Another option is the PC's were supplicants of the God-King Gilgeam of Unther or members of the government, etc. When Muholrand invaded and "killed" off Gilgeam, the PCs were forced to go underground and are part of the resistance. This resistance group spends as much time fighting the...

    Are these good stats for a Ftr/Clr?

    Ummm - he is looking for these as adverseries - not PCs.

    History Buffs: What if?

    Couple of questions: During the above discussions it seems that the Persian empire has been sold short. I see nothing in Corey's scenario that would preclude the rise of Persia (and the consequential elimination of Babylon) Granted the Alexander the Great then comes along and eliminates them...

    Point buy - How high do you go? (and why)

    the first time that our group played, we used 45 pts. The players whined and complained that anything less was non-heroic. Since this was not an issue that I really wanted to fight (I could scale the encounters) I went with it. Once they got it out of their systems we played the next one at...

    [ot, kinda] Board Game suggestions

    Having played Puerto Rico many times I doubt that it will reach the classic level - there are some balance issues with it...... Some other options: Bohnanza Fist of Dragonstones Ra Tikal Evo

    Never Trust a New DM

    Yea - I thought of that after I posted - because of the synergy, I might play a little loose with rules and up the DC by +2... Oh and Pielorinho - boooooooo!
