Huge centipede wouldn't work without handwaving the conjuration spell since the duration is more than likely less than what's required to traverse the wasteland and without the ability to communicate with the creature, you cannot control its actions. Overland Flight would be a better choice and...

That's part of it. My painting skills are weak and I don't have time to improve them. I think over time that the painted ones will bring me more enjoyment. The unpainted ones will nag at me for eternity and mock me for my lack of skill. :)

A 7th level fighter could have higher stats. (These are quick stats and I make no promises about the math) With a Str 20 and a Dex 16 Attack at a +15/+10 BAB 7/2 +1 weapon +5 str +1 weapon focus +1 weapon training Have an AC of around 31 +10 base +11 full plate +2 +4 heavy shield +2 +1...

That's certainly a fair enough assessment. I don't recall in my early AD&D or even 2e games reaching much above the lower teens and most games I ran were never intended to get much past 12th, which wasn't really a decision on my part, but rather a limit on how much XP could be reasonable...

I agree. My problem with spells like Plane Shift (keep in mind that I think they should exist) are that they tend to punish the DM as much as the players. What if I don't have anything prepared for a 100 miles from the destination? Now I have to improvise something that may not be relevant to...

I'm seeing this desert > siege > city discussion in two ways. Perhaps a visual?

I appreciate you sticking with your costs, even if they make it more difficult for some people to get in on the kickstarter. I certainly don't want to see anyone get in over their head and risk the entire project. Shipping is just a crappy reality of life. I once sent a package to a friend in...

I'm not sure what this thread is about anymore, but it seems to have been regulated to two view points that are probably much more similar than different at the table. It sounds like to me Hussars DM had a grumpy game session as a result of having his plot hijacked by changing player goals and...

That's what I was thinking, but the cheap-scape in me keeps looking at the numbers. Then I look down at the pictures and change my mind back! :)

I saw that, it was crazy expensive! I don't blame you for passing on it for that reason alone!

I'm thinking about doing it but have limited experience with Dwarven Forge terrain. Do you think there's a significant difference between the Full Painted and the Gray modules? Is it worth the cost increase? Opinions?

Now that's a good idea! I hadn't considered using AotHS. Parts might integrate nicely into the S&S AP.

There's no reason they can't use actions to increase or decrease spell functionality. They played around with it near the end of 3.5 with mixed success, but I like the idea for healing (and this from someone who enjoys playing a healbot). Using 3.5 actions to present healing amounts using cure...

Good to know. I was planning on "banning" a few of the classes but I hate to do it until I've chatted with the players. Are there any that are a problem for the AP?

Thanks for the "c" and the no "s" at the end of skull! :) I've run several other APs at 6 with a high point buy since several of the MAD classes aren't able to be on equal footing with the SAD classes unless there's a higher point buy. I can usually adjust to it for combat purposes but if it's...

Or they could remove the tie to ability scores altogether, then it wouldn't matter.

True. I'd probably keep the list pretty small. Maybe just have them choose one based on the type of pirate/ship role they would want to play.

I hadn't thought about that, but the addition of a "train" would certainly make things more interesting. It would make for a good "end game" scene. Time to see what Eberron has to offer, it's been a while.
