It is clear to me your only choice is to move back to Michigan. :p

It's People Man!!

It really seems to me that whizbangs opinion here is not going to be changed by anything anyone has to say on the subject. Critical fumbles help balance Critical hits. If a critical was JUST an automatic hit then rolling a one only being a miss would be just fine. However a critical hit isn't...

You have to move 10 feet before making an attack to get your skirmish damage which means no full attack I believe which makes 2 weapon fighting kinda useless. At least thats how I saw it last time I played a scout. My group goes by a system that is like a mish mesh of a bunch of systems so for...

Jack that is possibly the coolest thing I have ever heard.

You only need to know lava trumps me not once but twice. Only character I ever lost was to lava and when we retconned that cause the DM had the climb DC wrong I still wound up failing another climb check over the Lava.

I would say infantry (sp) then you have your mounted soldiers as calvery (sp)

I suppose by the way it is worded you could rule that it is possible. However I would not allow it cause the idea of it being skirmish damage is meant to entail that the person making the attack is moving in quickly to strike a vital area. I would say your move and attack has to be all one...

As I stated in the other thread on this subject I think it should be a random thing based on a roll. Your swing is sacrificing accuracy for power. Roll a die to determine what gets subtracted from your attack and thus added to your damage.

Power attack is supposed to symbolize a mighty swing that sacrifices accuracy for damage correct? So why should the player even be allowed to chose how much they are subtracting from their attack to add to their damage. I would center it on a roll. You declare you are power attacking you a...

I have always looked at search as hands on and spot as visual. So if I were DM and I know this is prolly not by the books rules. I would say taking 20 on a search to find traps whose DC's are higher than 20 could risk setting off said trap. If running an encounter like Tomb of Horrors I would...

I find myself lately becoming very disillusioned with players who enjoy making characters that, while well thought out and entertaining, are a direct hinderance to the party. I recently lost my character thanks to a player who was playing his "scoundrel" type character as a very selfish person...

The way I understand it from how we do it in the game I play in is this... and it may differ from the RAW. Subject A declared he wants to grapple subject B As Subject moves in close to subject B to make this attempt subject B gets the oppurtunity to fend off the advance with an attack provided...

I am not much of a DM specifically cause I do not know much about things like EL. I have ran only one session and it was the first couple of encounters from RHoD so everything was already done for me. However I think a level 5 fighter against a group of 5 5th level PC's ceases to be an EL of...

I was part of a session that should of ended in a player revolt and in a way did since I don't think anyone who played in that session has played for that DM again. We were running RHoD the DM as a player is an utter power gamer. As a DM he makes all kinds of crazy house rules that allow...

I am sorry but that quote was no more blanket than the quote either you or someone else took of mine saying IT was a blanket judgment. Last time I checked the use of the word some pretty much meant just that "some" not all. Also in regards to what you said to me a few posts back. I...

Exactly thank you.

I am sorry, but I do not really under stand what you are talking about. One only has to read the thread to see the people who have gotten the most heated on this thread are people who feel the OP has critisized them and they don't like it. I never said it was everyone and I never lumped all...

I would just like to point out something odd I have noticed on this thread. Several times now on this thread I have noticed the OP get "warned" that he has stepped over some line. As an outside observer if anyone on this thread has gotten in any way condescending or insulting it has been the...

I would give him an annoying way of speaking or maybe play him as some what of a drunk who speaks his mind regardless of who he may offend. I don't really buy into the Charisma as looks belief. I believe Charisma to be more of a social graces type thing.
