In my own games I would not impose the loss of hit points on top of everything else. Especially because of wizards and sorcerers. They are already penalized by loss of a spell to be cast, the attack penalty is twice what they normally gain (-1/ neg. level vs. +1 per 2 levels gained), skill and...

Didn't mean to crash anything down on you, was just trying to make a point. But if you want a non-cambat cleric who is still pretty nice, look at the UA's Cloistered Cleric. Lose much combat related stuff, gain more skill points (6 I think), bardic lore, and some extra types of divinatory spells...

not seen or played C&C. Have seen and played OD&D 1e, 2e (went back to 1e and OD&D after that one), and 3e and 3.5e. Also played way many other games to boot. But lets stick to D&D for this. DM's control munchkinism. Could you create way out insane characters in the old rules? Sure as a...

Do you have lots of players who all want to be a cleric? Is this a recurring issue in your games? I am just curious because I do agree that the Cleric is most likely a broken class. It was made broken on purpose though because people as a rule did NOT want to play the party's healer. Having to...

Really? Hadn't heard/seen that. Didn't really look that hard though. I had a PC play one, didn't seem broken or overpowered to me. But to each their own.

for my money go Goliath or the shway kewl Half-Ogre. I really like the Half-Ogre. And I don't think they are unbalanced. The +1 level adjustment seems to work just about right for me.

Don't get me started on the freaking economic system. What is one of the most common types of magic items found in adventures and on npc's? Weapons. What is consistently one of the most expensive items in the game? Weapons. Why did they do this in 3rd and 3.5? And while were at it did they...

I've got to agree that it is the half-orc at fault, not the elf. According to the DMG all the following are balanced mods = STR +2 = CON -2 STR +2 = DEX -2 DEX +2 = CON -2 (the elf) DEX +2 = INT -2 DEX +2 = STR -2 (the halfling) CON +2 = STR -2 (the gnome) CON +2 = DEX -2 CON +2 = CHA -2 (the...

I really like some of the ideas mentioned here. going to have to take and incorporate them into my own campaign. Very well done on the aristocrat ideas. Also like the idea of remodeling it into 1 of 3 career paths. I would definitely have to rate that idea as shway kewl.

I think saying it once was enough. *Cough* Duplicate post.....

I like what you've done. It looks nice. Just a couple of thoughts on it. For Canny Defense, I like your progression idea, but I think it might be a little fast for a core class concept. You might want to consider every other level improving the bonus. The other thing I'm not 100% on is the...

Khaalis, thanks for the imput. I did some math and played about it a bit. you are right, the way I have it is too potent. If you had broken stats it would be possible for a human to start with an AC 22 and a halfling with an AC of 24 (if you have 2 18's, and I did say it was a broken or at...

Impressed by your "Real Word" take on Cobra. Rather like it myself. GI Joe does lend itself well to the idea of RPG's and the unusual make up of its forces allow for a lot of PC options. On the D20 route I agree that Spycraft is your best bet. Good Luck Man. Let us know how it progresses.

Thanks for the response. I was not certain about giving 4 skill points a level, but it does make sense if you think about it and it probably wouldn't overbalance them. Everything else looks okay? Feedback and suggestions are always welcome.

Hey everyone. Once, a good ways back, I attempted to make a duelist core class, like a great many other folks. well I was never thrilled with that attempt. So in a fit of inspiration and boredom I decided to take another whack at one, this time using 3.5 rules as a basis. No flavor text or fancy...

I am so happy to see even more fans of Lankhmar. Yipee!!! I am always gratified to know that there are more out there. Been tinkering with my own homebrewed stuff for a Lankhmar 3.5ed. I took a slightly different tack than AFGNCAAP and am using more classes and a slightly different magic-user...

I've never seen any actual population numbers for the city. Personally I think its over 200,000. I figure its called the city of 7 score thousand smokes. That's 140,000 different chimneys. Most are connected to apartments and tenements, but many are also for businesses. So I go big and figure...

Thank you for the acknowledgement and I hope your friends enjoy them. My actual name is Phil Morris Jr. Harmyn on all the fun little boards and chat areas (he was my first great vampire villain and so I still respect him to this day). And thank you for the acknowledgement. Enjoy them and...

Glad you like what I've done. I just hope that someone can get some enjoyment out of my work. I'm also playing around with some variant casting classes to better try out the Black and White Wizards, some regional feats, and a few other odd bits. My current campaign is a homebrew though and so...

Should have posted this first. I did some work on the sub-races of humanity for the world of Lankhmar. I've posted them up here so everyone can look them over and let me know what you think. Hopefully you all can find something useful in what I've done.
