    Threads that go Klunk!

    It probably should. I did what I came to do...which was invite people over to do some political yakking someplace else. Ysgarran.

    Threads that go Klunk!

    Yes, I know that the tendency is for things to get out of hand. Especially in internet forum's. I didn't actually want to state it but since I control the forum I will boot offenders. In fact, it will probably happen that I do have to boot some people off. Hopefully a warning will be...

    Is there a forum that already exists for closed threads? Ysgarran.

    Threads that go Klunk!

    With the permission of PirateCat I've created a Yahoo group where we can continue conversations that are not appropriate for the EN World message boards. I did this because I'm interested in what people have to say and because the people on this board strike me as intelligent and reasonable...

    [poll] What type of rpg books do you prefer in general?

    For me, it comes down to the idea that a good non-specific source-book should give you more ideas for adventures. Sure it might take a bit of work to create those adventures but for the style of game I run, it works the best. ysgarran.

    Pounce

    I allow pounce in the surprise around, at the end of a charge, and at the end of a regular move. The main limitation is that the pounce takes places in the first round of combat. If it is a particular smart creature (like a weretiger) I would allow it to run off and try to sneak back to...

    Mithral and Armor Proficiency...

    I don't believe that they stack, I'm guessing with the next release of the FAQ the mithral statement will be modified.

    My review of ETools........long post

    The PCGen crew spent ALOT of time at GenCon running around talking to all of the people at the various companies. If you have noticed the first production release of PCGen (3.0) has dropped all of the WotC supplements (DotF, MotW, etc.). The only WotC products currently in the release are...

    Mithral and Armor Proficiency...

    I don't have the books in front of me but this is not exactly correct. Adding MW to a Mithral Breastplate does not increase the enhancements but does allow it to be enchanted. To rephrase: The only inherent advantage that a MW Mithral breastplate has over a Mithral Breastplate is that it can...

    Handling Invisible Characters.

    Thanks for the input. Lets take a more concrete example, an invisible Rogue with a hide skill of 15 is actively hiding in a room full of furniture (i.e. plenty of things to hide behind) and is holding still. The party walks into the room is about 20 feet from the Rogue. Would you roll the...

    Handling Invisible Characters.

    The DMG gives rules for spotting invisible characters. I don't particularly like those rules. I don't have the book in front of me but if I remember correctly it basically gives a DC of 20 (or so) to notice an invisible creature. How do you handle this? 1. Make the invisibility perfect...

    Magic Buckler Question.

    If a two weapon fighter has buckler strapped to his arm but is not actively using it, he does/does not get the associated magic defences from the Buckler. For example, if a Ranger has +1 Heavy Fortification Buckler and is attacking with both weapons and he gets criticaled (sp?) does magic...

    Move Equivalent Action.

    Thanks for this post Artoomis, pretty much the clearest of the bunch. Armed with your post and once I get the PHB and the SRD into my hands I'll get a handle on the questions in my second posting (the one about Zombies and partial charges). Ysgarran.

    Move Equivalent Action.

    I really hesitate to continue this now but it looks like the consensus is that you can stand up and ready a partial action. One part that doesn't seem to add up to me is how (or if) a partial charge differs from a typical partial action. For example, one of the very first examples from the...

    Move Equivalent Action.

    Pretty simple question. A prone character: 1. Stands up as a move equivalent action. 2. Can that character then charge as a partial action in the same round? thanks, Ysgarran.

    mongoose books balanced?

    What Psion said. The Rokugan samurai book had something similar. At least for the styles in the samurai book you had to pay experience points to access. You also had to go through a Kata before you could take advantage of a particular style. I'm not sure if it is balanced but at least it...
