First time playing D&D in over a year. My character (started at 2nd level, and is a half-orc ranger), is facing off agaisnt a dumbed down ankeg, and royally getting whooped (thanks to rolling a 1 on my spot check and a 2 on my listen). My partners are ineffectual. My character swings with his...

Alright I voted, they fill a niche. I actually like the halfling as is. But I hate players who do the whole kender-sque thing. These are three halfling types I've had and I liked how the players played them: I'm a cannible-barbarian, I'm a paladin just a little short, and yeah I'm a rogue, but...

Sweet. Thanks for the reply. Never did like the concept of an Egyptian themed setting with warriors in full plate wielding bastard swords (ala FR's Mulhorand). That goes with any ancient history themed setting (Greek, Roman, etc.). Yeah, you can take the feel and port it into another era, but...

What has gaming done for me. That's hard for me to say as alot of the ground work was laid before I started gaming. But it did help enforce things such as my reading, my love of history, my writing skills and my imagenation. It did introduce me to several friends, though most have moved away...

I got a question on equipment. Does it use bronze age stuff of ancient Egypt style or the normal D&D stuff as in the PH. If the former does it include inclusion lists from the PH, and if the latter do you account for the heat associated with the land and give common usage tips (for example for...

I allow full-use. But my players have never used it...I have as the DM to great effectiveness

Well on the first it says I'm a true geek at 600, but if it weren't for my knowledge of computer programming languages, I could subtract around 200 points. Oh well. On the other one I scored a 36.7%, a closet nerd. That's probably more acurate.

What creeps me out. Necklaces, collared shirts, ties, and anything else that goes around my neck. They irk me, grate against me, and I'm always uncomfortable when wearing them. This probably came from a fight I got into when I was five or six, this guy had me in a choke hold and I couldn't get...

I got a couple: In a campaign once I DMed, it involved a dwarved cleric wielding a heavy pick. Every time my NPCs where starting to get the upper hand, his cleric would always roll a crit on the BMF of the group, either killing him or leaving so low on hp the next hit killed him. I still think...

Here's one that always annoyed me as a player (and I'll admit doing it as a DM). Just because you think your encounter/adventure/campaign is a cool idea, but one of the players or the group is doing something that goes counter to this philosophy, don't penalize, run with it (as one of my old...

For me no, might be fun, but to the powergamer next to me, he'd hate it, my characters are usually the weakest in the group (I still say bards are the best class in the game, they are not weak, really they aren't, please believe me). Now if you were to do a body swap with other creatures now...

I saw the picture of the dire maggot and I thought, what in the Sam Hill is that the larvae of? Kinda stupid creature concept if you ask me. Anyways, the images and some of the other previews have moved me from, aaa maybe to just plain maybe. Nothing yet stands out that says I gotta buy this...

Well, my problem has always been getting to sleep, my parents tell stories of when I was an infant and they would stay up all night trying to get me to sleep. My favorite all nighter story, I was in college, behind in my class (a very common occurence) anyways, I had done about 3 projects out...

Yeah, Velsharoon was a rival to Szass Tam. But it was Talos who got him his membership to the diety club. See Talos was looking to exspand his portfolio, so he got in contact with Velsharoon. Well, Velsharoon not stupid (he's a lich, ok), anyways, he figures out Talos wants his control over...

Iron Kingdoms Setting Guide Hamunaptra boxed set Sharn Sourcebook Monster Manual III (hasn't shown up in my corner of Hades yet, probably gotta wait another week) There's probably others I haven't thought of yet.

I ordered some Warmachine minis from them once. Service seemed good, didn't have any problems. Haven't ordered from them since, but thats because I prefer The War Store navagation. Otherwise they seem to provide the same level of service.

For starters you gonna keep WWI and WWII, I'd at least keep WWI. And in WWI, this even you got would cause US to pull out of Europe, probably ending that war in a stalemate, possibly altering Europe as we know it (but a stalemate would probably never have let Hitler come to power so its not that...

Dude, Dallas will always be Americas team. Dallas fans, like me, will always be bashed and ridiculed when Dallas is losing, and will be reviled and hated when Dallas is winning. The Pats are a great team and I hope they win the Super Bowl if Dallas ain't in it (slim chance there, hey I don't...

That makes sense and Fosters is terrible tasting, in my opinion (though that opinion is not shared by my coworkers, who always order a pitcher when we go to Hooters, but as a good Texan I drink it).
