That depends. How often does he shower? :D

I don't know if this is the worst episode of Angel ever, but it's certainly down there. Its only redeeming feature was the Illyria parts, which could have filled an entire episode satisfactorily. Instead we get "They're Italians! Italian stereotypes are funny! Getit? Italians=funny! Oh, and...

Even artists whose styles look like they were 'winging it', like Picasso or many abstract expressionists, put a lot of thought into the simple lines and combinations of colors they paint, and often draw sketch after sketch before painting the final artwork. There's nothing wrong with...

Nope. Races of Faerun is a 3.0 book.

Shiny! :D Does that feat work with arcane spellcasting too, or just divine? Does the level increase also improve SR penetration and resistance to dispelling, or just level-based spell effects?

What does the domain spontenaity feat do? What are the prerequisites of the spontaneous healing feat?

I wouldn't be surprised if they're expecting a new edition to come out for Ep.3, and trying to get rid of all their stock so it doesn't become worthless later.

If it is, it's a pidgin that dates back to the late middle ages. He did misspell it though :) San graal or San greal = holy grail Sang real (pronounced Ray-al) = blood royal

I definitely want to see a book about the island kingdoms, including the Moonshaes and northmen, sword coast pirates, Lantan, and most of all, Nimbral. I couldn't care less about Evermeet though, since it's not a place where you have adventures unless you have an all-elves party, and even then...

Your players take more than three minutes to decide what to do? That would annoy me to no end. My advice is to impose a "reasonable amount of time" limit. Don't punch a clock to make sure it's less than 1 minute, but tell the players that you don't want them to take much time deciding what to...

The impression I got from it was that it was AEG's answer to Unearthed Arcana, but with more of a story tying all the different rules stuff together.

Ironically, two of my four favorite alternate magic systems for d20 are both psionics systems. The Psychic's Handbook published by Green Ronin is a great low-key skills and feats based psionics system. Because it is based on skills and feats, it's My other favorite alternate 'magic' system...

<Thoroughly unsuble Bump> :D

To clarify, when you're fighting with both ends (ie. getting two attacks at -2/-2 using the TWF feat) you get +5/+2 damage with the main and off hands. When you're not making two attacks, you count it as a two handed weapon and do +7 damage. The official ruling would have to be 1d10, since the...

Likewise. War and Peace, a book renowned for not much happening, is 1/3 the size of the wheel of time behemoth, and has 10x the action and adventure. Les Miserables, another huge 1000+ page book, has several entire 50+ page chapters about events that are entirely extraneous to the story which...

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Howard's Conan stories. My favorite is definitely Zelazny's Nine Princes in Amber (and the rest of the Amber books to a somewhat lesser degree). Steven Brust is also good at "single person vs. many lessers" scenes, but they tend to be more "gutsy person...

To answer your joke question seriously: because 'China' isn't the name of the country. 'China' is just an english word of confusing origin that refers to the country of Zhong Guo. It's the same reason why we don't spell Germany the German way: because the German way of spelling Germany is...

I played a convention game like this once, though the GM didn't really use all the game mechanics. (It was an Amber Diceless convention, so everyone was used to the GM winging it). What we did use were the 'genre-conventions'. The D&D characters could fall from great heights with only some...

Paladin. I like the concept of holy warriors, but their abilities are just a grab bag of uninteresting mediocrity. They're also the least customizable class in the game. I don't think that's neccessarily a problem with the class itself, just with the way the class tends to be played. It's...

Testament and Star Wars. After the Lord liberates the chosen people from the evil Egyptian Empire, they have to make their way back across the vast reaches of space to the Chosen Land. It's like Battlestar Galactica meets the Ten Commandments, with interstellar space battles, robed prophets...
