    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    Elves enter a reverie state. It is cross between meditation and sleep, but it is effectively sleep. An Elf requires 4 hours of reverie compared to other humanoids 8 hours of sleep to gain rest from fatigue BUT all races require 8 hours of rest in order to memorize spell/regain spell slots. So...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    Its a good thing the Duke was a mage huh? I was wondering when the Duke had time to change out of his night clothes and into his robes.

    D20 Modern has HPs and class based dodge bonuses. A smoother system all around.

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    This was the point i was alluding to earlier in my time speech that everybody glossed over. A round does not always have to be six precise seconds. Measuring combat in rounds can be fine but measuring real world events like conversations, armor donning, determining the nature of the...

    Preparing for the Elemental Plane of Water

    I wonder.....is there pressure in the Elemental plane of water? Seems like you would pop as soon as you entered.

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    a). I dont know, but I have always thought of my d&d groups as special forces teams. b) Me either but it had a kinda military theme so I just kinda went with it. You sir have hit the nail on the head. That is exactly the situation the melee PCs are in this scenario and in 3E. 3E has no...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    Hey, i merely respond in kind. I was participating in the discussion with what I thought were fair criticisms. If somebody creates a thread asking for responses, I thought they would be mature enough to read them without sniping because somebody disagreed with them.

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    Your have proven that you have entirely missed the point several other posters have pointed out to you already. Regardless of the fact that the BBEGS would have used it as a sound tactic, it is clear from the reaction of a good portion of your gaming group that they found the confrontation...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    This is a problem of the unrealistic nature of 3E time mechanics. I think the DMs fault in this case was confusing what a monster can do in a round with what it should have taken it to do in a more realistic time frame. The way this "trap" is setup its basically 1 round of attacks, 1 round...

    Armour Dilemma: Am I Wrong Here?

    I can understand the problem from both perspectives. First, you did effectivley neuter the combat characters in you game by not allowing them to don their armor. What was preventing you from launching this "surprise attack" right before everybody went to bed? It is an unfortunate fact, but...

    D&D is best when the magic is high, fast and furious!

    You know that problem could be almost completely eliminated if non-spell casting classes has access to magic item building feats. I dont see why a high level fighter with a extremely high craft(blacksmith) couldnt sacrifice some of his own XP to make an incredible weapon. The only reason it...

    Eh.....give the dead Sorc BBEG and even bigger BBEG boss and roll with it. Oh....and next time fudge your initiative rolls. Edit: Cause I cant speeellll

    New Default Setting: Forgotten Realms?

    I dont think there should be any "default" setting. They should just make the books generic and give examples from several supported worlds in their PrCs, and Gods.

    What ELSE do Fighters do?

    I dont even think the fighter is better at it than many of the other classes. A high level barb will smash a high level fighter to goo. Lets not forget how beneficial that rage ability is going to be now that stat boosting items will be more expensive. A DR of 5 is really nice too. I have...

    Nerf the Fighter!

    Because they are an asinine concept? Or because they encourage even more powergaming than 2Es kits? Or because most of them are so poorly designed as to make the core classes irrelevant? The real reason is because the players arent supposed to know about PrCs. Characters werent supposed to...
