Are you asking a rules question, or a house rules / fan creations question? Cheers, Roger

Figure out what the vat meat is feeding on. Cheers, Roger

* Several diseases require rewrites * Starvation, thirst, and suffocation rules require (another) rewrite * Several monsters require attack rewrites. A few who have their own healing surges would require rewrites. * Numerous magic items require rewrites I suspect they're more pervasive in the...

I'm already confused about what this thread is about. Is it about what we can expect from DMG2? Is it about what we want to see in DMG2? Something else? Cheers, Roger

I'm inclined to read a level 26 Daily utility power pretty generously, so sure, let's throw insubstantial and swarm in there. Cheers, Roger

Before the GSL update: No. After the GSL update: Yes. I wrote a side-by-side comparison of the two versions: http://stirgessuck.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/gsl_comparison_v1.pdf The change relevant to this issue is the removal of Section 6. Cheers, Roger

Plate might be worth it; I'm not so sure proficiency is, though. -2 to attack rolls and Reflex isn't a good thing, but is it worth 3 or 4 feats to avoid? Maybe not. Cheers, Roger

They're all fairly strange. You're blazing new territory in the design space with these, so it's hard to say what the balance is like. A fully-implemented character might be easier to compare to existing characters. Cheers, Roger

Maybe I'm just slow, but I don't think I understand this question well enough to answer. Cheers, Roger

Sounds fair enough to me. So why did they say Vancian magic would be gone? I think the answer is in the recent interview with Rob Heinsoo: So, it would appear that, for a while, it was going to be gone. But then it came back. Hope that helps clarify things. Cheers, Roger

Increase the time scale. A lot. Sieges often take months, sometimes years. Cheers, Roger

I'm not sure we're all on the same page when it comes to what "Vancian magic" is. Which Jack Vance books in particular have you read? That might help us clarify things. Cheers, Roger

I think this is your answer right here. Attach all powers to colours. Characters can learn any power. That could potentially get a little weird, but it's where I'd start. Cheers, Roger

I just wanted to thank everyone in this thread. I'd been thinking about getting some more play in, but had somehow forgotten that the local RPGA chapter was an option. I'll be looking into it; will update if I find anything interesting. Cheers, Roger

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to pull off here, but based on what I've heard, I might be tempted to ditch the base classes entirely and replace them with the ethos. Re-assign class features and powers to ethos as desired. Use existing multiclassing subsystem to handle mixed...

Whoops! Missed that under the "Delay Entire Turn" heading. Thanks! Cheers, Roger

That would appear to make maneuvers like delaying while you are unconscious or dying somewhat more useful. Cheers, Roger

Those maps look pretty sweet! Cheers, Roger

I'm not sure I buy that. It basically means anyone I want to play with is, by definition, perfect and without flaws or problems, and any problems I think they might have are really problems with the system. There's a guy who is a fine player and I want him at my table. Sometimes he does...

Just so I'm clear on your position here: you're claiming that at least 5% of 3E D&D games were not familiar to a bystander familiar with the brand? Cheers, Roger
