    Rate S1: The Tomb of Horrors (corrected poll options)

    Reply to BiggusGeekus Well, I would certainly agree that the mod would be slightly easier under a 3.0/3.5 conversion. A lot of the stuff in that mod is so darn frustrating because it doesn't really conform with any of the D&D rules (past, present, or maybe even future.) Per your PCs actions...

    I want my character to be a chronomancer, so I need help :)

    Epic Chronomancer Here is an Epic version of the Chronomancer, as developed by Enworld's The Jester. Not sure if this helps, but take a look. It is a cool lil' thingy: The Chronomancer (Epic Prestige Class) Some powerful spell-casters seek to learn the secrets of time itself. This is a...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Please defend the Tomb of Horrors! Hey Col, There is a thread under the General RPG Discussion forum that rates your S1 mod. There seem to be a few naysayers there that believe it can only be won by cheating or extreme (perhaps Lotto winning) luck. :mad: Please smite them with a story of...

    Rate S1: The Tomb of Horrors (corrected poll options)

    I sense some disagreement with my comments . . . It seems that, according to some of you, my comments about this mod sharpening gamin' skills is somewhat in dispute. :p Let me just say a couple of more things - 1) The ToH cannot be beaten by luck, only carefully moving around and picking...

    Rate S1: The Tomb of Horrors (corrected poll options)

    Is D&D really fun w/o PC deaths? I'm giving it a 10 as it is an awesome adventure and still stands apart as being a unique adventure for PCs and DMs. Hopefully, I'll be running it with my Epic party as it seems that ToH (and RttToH) is an excellent challenge worthy of their level. That being...

    Worst D&D adventure of all time?

    I didn't find the ELH adventure to be that bad, though I altered the story considerably to make it fit the campaign. The adventure ended with the Infernal laying siege to the tower and that was a lot of fun. Per the adventure itself, it did have a humbling effect on the PCs who were very...

    Epic Spells

    Epic Pain in the Butt In general, I do think the Epic Spellcasting system is workable, but far over priced in terms of what it costs and Epic character to make them. In Jester's Epic game, one character has it but, if he wants to develop and Epic Spell, we would probably have to give him a ton...

    Law and Chaos - the predictable and not so predictable

    Per lawful, I don't think that it always means that you tell the (complete) truth, or that you would follow the letter of the law to its fullest. I think lawful characters will use laws, codes of conduct, etc. per their alignment. (Ex: a lawful evil being might be vague, mysterious, and omit...

    Looking for Sacramento Players (D&D)

    Per TM, 1. What is the general premise of your campaign? Without giving too much away, its good vs. evil, fate vs. free will 2. In what world does it take place? Homebrew called Ardick (SH is the Ardick Campaign) 3. What alignments do you allow in your party? Any Non-evil 4. Are there any...

    Has the RPGA failed?

    Bit off topic, but . . . I heard that RPGA ranks gamers and DMs. As an aside, who's #1 in each category?

    The Ardick Campaign - Chapter One: Repentance

    Harris finally sat down at his small, nearly broken table and desperately fought to keeps his emotions together. He’d paced relentlessly throughout the day until he saw the sun rise to its zenith in the sky. He reminded himself then that this could be the last time he had to fake his allergy...

    "Epic" Spells

    Yeah, the eratta is there, but its not incorporated into the SRD. This makes me think that WotC feels that it isn't worth their while to do this. I can understand the smattering of Epic stuff out there in other books. There might be more if Epic play was a more viable option for gamers. As...

    Favorite Epic Modules?

    So, my Epic game just worked its way thru the Epic Adventure in the EHL and I'm kinda feeling like I'm out of resources at this point. Can anyone point me to some Epic modules, whether in Dungeon, 3rd pty, etc? As an aside, does it seem like there is no demand for Epic modules? Or are these...

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    As I might not be there in game to find out why the heck this guy is back to terrorize Cydra, I look forward to an explaination in the SH. I'm sure it is very interesting, and goes well beyond, "Well, Felenga and Fulgin got to come back and whoop butt! Why can't I?"

    "Epic" Spells

    I wonder if you could still cast regular spells even if you had up to level 9 of Auto Quicken? If not, include the Multispell feat as one more that is necessary to take advantage of this feat tree. Is it just me, or is WotC sorta disregarding its development of Epic materials? I'm sorta...

    (Cydra) Great Conflicts

    " It seems to grow from the size of a man to something that almost fills the entire sky. Six massively muscled arms... a huge, raw, seeping crater in its chest... a collection of weapons and spiked bucklers are held in its massive hands. If it weren’t for the six arms and the immense size- and...

    Are Half-elves underpowered?

    Half elves are weaker compared to Elves/Humans. Humans are the best race IMO, due to the extra skills points and that bonus feat. 1/2 elves, as they are, don't have enough going for them to equal either elves or humans. The changes suggested in this thread about adding skill points are good...
