    Survival tips for Green Star Adepts

    If you were doing X3/Wizard2/GSA10 your INT will be high, so maybe consider Swashbuckler. That would give you Insightful Strike for a melee damage boost.

    Chicago Gameday XIX 3/15/08: Planning Thread

    VB- Just FYI, I think your idea of an all-BO9S game rocks. I liked the book, but have never played any of the classes, and am looking forward to giving it a shot on GameDay. Cool. OK, back to my lurking ways...

    Heroes Season Two Resuming?

    Hey, there, does anybody have any insight on whether Heroes will resume now that the writers strike is over? I know there was supposed to be an Origins show which got cancelled, but not sure about the rest of the regular season.

    Is the Hellfire Warlock PrC overpowered?

    As above, I have not played one either. But, my guess would be that its playability is largely dictated by how high-powered your chargen rules are; at 25 point buy it is going to really suck to have Con damage, since an effective Warlock really needs both Cha and Dex. OTOH, if you have 32...

    After Swashbuckler . . .

    Opinion seconded! This is the best answer IMO. Just start taking rogue all the way through level 20 planning the Daring Outlaw feat to make you get the best of both classes. I think the fastest you can take Daring Outlaw is level 6, though, so it is worth planning in advance.

    OotS #523 is up

    Mr. Scruffy I am seriously hoping that Mr. Scruffy gets adopted by Belkar as his ranger animal companion.

    Lance & Laser

    I really like their Villains & Vigilantes line (which is now updated to Living Legends, I think), all designed by Jeff Dee. Many of the figs are straight from V&V, like Shatterman from the old Dragon ads. Those are the only minis I know from the company, though. And be advised that the scale...

    New Design & Development: Feats

    This is not the *first* bit of news that worries me-- that was having different versions of creatures for players and NPCs-- but this certainly follows that trend. I believe that the 3e flexibility and customizably is one of the hallmarks of the edition, a vast improvement over 1e and 2e. This...

    The Great d20 sell off begins with GRR

    Holy Smokin' Crow! That is an *AMAZING* sale!! I just bought a bundle at paizo.com.

    The Hoplite (think Spartan, Greek, Roman)

    I really like the idea of the class, and all the base elements are well-balanced (saves, abilities, hp, etc.). My suggestion would be to use other similar abilities to model instead of creating new ones. That will "standardize" the class and make it tighter. Specifically: Weapon and Armor...

    Empire of the Ghouls

    Darren- These rock-- I especially like the undead myconid (is that even RAW? LOL) and vampire gnome. I am really impressed with Wolfgang's Kobold Quarterly magazine; is there any chance of seeing more of your work in there, too?

    VoP and Monk

    I am playing a Vow of Poverty (and Peace) Monk, currently at level 12. He is *not* overpowered. If anything, he is much weaker than the rest of the party-- even beyond the roleplaying restrictions, characters have some pretty darn powerful items at higher level. The VoP Monk is very tough to...

    Wait, i'll cast this!!! Ooops...help

    Close Wounds is in Spell Compendium-- it is great! I would also consider Sound Lance, same book.

    Pimp my Warforged! (Iron Man as 'Forged)

    I don't really have any suggestions, and your game sounds a bit more gonzo than I prefer my D&D, but I like the image! You got the bronze construct look just right.

    The 3rd Kryptonian? Possible Spoliers

    Call me a cynic, but... ...I personally suspect all these new versions of older *lame* characters is just about copyright protection within DC. Publish a few titles with these losers every ten years or whatever, and you ensure that it does not enter public domain. Although, who the heck would...

    I don't think Exemplars of Evil is doing that hot

    Pawsplay- Thanks for the heads-up on Half-Price books! There were not any of the newest books like Exemplars of Evil, and none were as low as $7 (!) but there were lots of new condition books there for 50% of cover. I bought up a bunch! There were lots of books that I passed at full price...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 FAQ change: Monks & gauntlets

    Weapons of Legacy? That creates an interesting corner case for one of the Weapons of Legacy, then; there is a magical gauntlet that is clearly intended for monks. Oh, the irony. ;)

    Psionics Balanced?

    Kat nailed it. I am currently playing a kalashtar Psion (Telepath), and while he is a fun character who can be deadly effective for short bursts of time, I have to keep a *constant* watch on my power points. The number of encounters per day *really* affects psionic characters due to the...
