    DMs: How Much of Your Prep Work Never Gets Used??

    I'd say I use at least 90% of it. I've gotten good at using Enworld stuff, so it save a lot of writing time. -AoA

    Help! Urgent science question I need answered!

    So, my PCs are lugging around a 10ft long, 2 ft wide metal spike in their Epic quest to bring back the heart of a Genus Loci. (Took some liberties with the EHL description, but anyway. . . ) I really need to know how much it weighs as this has many, many implications to their use of it...

    How fast do your characters advance in level?

    The lower level guys in my epic game have gained levels about 1 per 2 games. I'm probably in the minority when I say I'd like it to go faster, but I would so that they can fight buffer stuff! :]

    sorcerers

    Homebrewed Sorcerer Changes For my Epic game, I decided that Sorcerers needed some tweaking to keep up with their Wizard counterparts at higher levels. I wanted to give them a bit more control over their powers. So far, the Sorceress PC has been OK with these, though it will take a few more...

    "It's just a game."

    Voted a 2, . . . but its a very fanatical 2. I take it seriously but I'm OK w/putting it aside to get REAL stuff done.

    Blackdirge's Suped Up Monster Thread: Monster Column Updated 06/26/06!

    Hey BD, I wanted to let you know that I've used several of your monsters and they were lots of fun. I've used (excuse me for lack of memory) the melted beholder, undeadish giant spider, and most recently Hexavia, the 1/2 dragon druid. Lots of fun! Post again soon!!!! (And, if it happens...

    TPKs I've known and loved

    Never DM'd a TPK, or played in one. However, the ones we nearly had or that happened while I wasn't playing happened due to player hubris/stupidity. Unfortunately, it happens, but it must if the PCs are to truly fear death at higher levels. -AoA

    Have you become disillusioned with 3rd edition?

    No, not disillusioned, . . . still pretty illusioned in general ;) . 3E and 3.5 are cool, but if I had one wish it would be to make everything more streamlined. At low levels, not bad. High levels (which I prefer) can be arduous (sp??) when it comes to the kind of big combats that I like. -AoA

    Seeking people in the Sacramento, ca area

    Would you be comfortable playing in an Epic level 3.5 game? If so, I might be willing to add you to our group. We have 3.5 players right now. Later, AoA

    What Do You Expect in a 1,000th Level Character?

    At level 1000, you would be operating on a whole different plane of consciousness. You would see many possible reprecussions from everything you do . . . from killing a God to accidently dropping your ceral spoon at breakfast. (In fact, you knew before you woke up that this was a possibility...

    Epic Level more popular than Psionics?

    I definately prefer Epic, mostly as I don't know Psionics very well. I agree with a previous post in that magic and psionics are too similar, but I've seen others have a lot of fun with psionics, so they must be on to something. The ELH is decent, but also as mentioned, it lacks support from...

    PLAYER looking for a game in/around SANTA CLARA, SOUTH BAY

    Hey there, I'm up in Sacramento, but you and your friend sound like pretty cool gamers. If you guys are big on tactics and very cunning, I'd love to have you make a cameo appearance in my Epic game as kick butt bad guys. Probably just be for one game (we play Saturdays), mostly being a combat...

    Feats a Warlock should take?

    With the Warlock NPCs I've played, I like these feats: Improve Initiative (Blast first, ask questions later) Empower/Maximize/Quicken Spell like ability (try putting all those together on an EB . . . ouch!!! :eek: ) Extra Invocation (Can't have enough of these!) Good luck w/your character...

    Eldrtich Knight vs Spellsword

    I've played a Warforged EK and it was pretty cool. I really like the class, but the Epic progression for them is a raw deal. They don't get any standard progressions @ Epic levels (like a rouge's sneak attack), and they get a bonus epic feat every 4 levels. I really think that they should be...

    Can a Warlock's Eldritch Blast be countered?

    I'm pretty sure that a Warlock's Dispel invocation is ranged touch so, at the very least, they would need to be right next to the caster. -AoA

    To adventure!

    Whatever happened to Adventuring just for the heck of it? Seriously, anyone who is going to get bogged down in plot lines, especially when first starting out or meeting up with a party, hasn't figured out why they showed up at the gaming session. Not that plot hooks/character development isn't...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Dude, thanks! Seriously, for that speedy reply! I hate to hear that something as challenging, thoughtful, and fun as S1 would be discounted as a mere lottery's chance of survival. Thanks for this mod and all your contributions to gaming. While S1 isn't your only great one, it will always...
