I've done a fair share of both caving and cave diving. I have never needed to swim while caving. As I mentioned before, a dwarf accustomed to cave Diving.... would be a cliff dwarf. Granted, yes there are the occasional underground rivers, lakes, etc. but they are just that... rare. Most water...

That's actually not quite accurate. Yes a greatsword has better reach, but not better power against armor. Greatswords were used for two primary purposes. The first and foremost purpose was to hew through lines of light infantry with spears/pikes, targeting first the flimsy spears and pikes...

Yet. Crafty has said that they will be releasing Dramatic Conflicts for FC, they just haven't said when. I believe they have also said they will be released as individual conflicts like I believe they did later in the Spycraft releases.

Kinda getting in on this late but I had a few comments anyway. On the FC Dwarves topic, keep in mind that their Banned Actions are for a specific type of dwarf. The reasoning being physical, environmental and mechanics. First and foremost, as Psion already pointed out, keep in mind that in...

Hey AuldGrump. I am curious how you are converting Elements of Magic to FC. What system are you using to do the conversion? Alsohave you seen True Sorcery from Green Ronin? If so, how similar is it to EoM?

I personally haven't seen any need for anything simpler than current 4E. IMHO, 4E Character Generation is one of the easier D&D systems (not counting going way back where your only choice was basically race/class). I've indoctrinated 3 new players since 4E came out, 2 of which had not ever...

Since it hasn't been mentioned Shadowrun is still alive and doing not so poorly.

Hai! I second this assumption. In my mind the new version of Psychic Warrior will basically be the fantasy Jedi. I just hope its a better defender than the Swordmage... Well, in fact that goes to counter a statement earlier in the thread too. I don't see many of the new classes being better...

What we know for Certain: * Races: -- Eberron: Shifters have already been covered. That leaves Changelings/Doppelgangers, Kalashtar and Warforged. If we take the FRPG/PH2 as guidelines, 2 of these will end in the EPG and 1 in PH3. {Edit: Since the Warforged were already done in a Dragon...

Personally, I just see this as yet another reminder that WotC/Hasbro is a corporation. Period. These decisions and actions, bordering on underhanded if not downright shady (due to the amount of time this was done in), were obviously put in place by the executives and lawyers at Hasbro/WotC. It...

I'm still absorbing the mechanic specifics and what might actually work as combinations, but my 1st gut instinct says I don't like these mechanics. Overall, the "class features" aspect of the mechanics seems broken. <JMHO> As it stands I think most of the class' “Class Features” are massively...

Could someone with the latest Anders set drop me a private message / email?

Thanks all. I figured I was right in the first example and not the second. Thanks!

Ok. I've been reading some threads on DPR and I am now getting confused on how to figure Critical Hit Damage. Scenario: Level 14 Character - Assume a Critical hit with a +3 Reckless Katar (1d6 High Crit) - Assume the following damage bonuses: ----- +3 Enhancement ----- +6 Ability Score ----- +3...

As of now, the Character Builder update is only partial. Some of the new PHB2 info is there but not others, like the entire Avenger class being missing as well as all of the PHB2 races.

First.... AMAZING WORK! I have been (for years now) working on a game world that has a continent ruled by dragons and their noble houses. Dragonborn (formerly half-dragons) are the highest ranking humanoids (along with kobolds, which are draconic in my world) in their caste system, basically...

I've been having the same problem since about 8AM EST. There is nothing on the site that indicates what the problem is, and contacting them via email support says you'll get an answer withing 2 business days... bleh.

After looking at it again, I have to alter my tune. On one hand, yes its written ok, for fitting within the system as it currently exists. However, on the other hand, I don't think this is the way it should be. Aye! I wholeheartedly agree here. For the sake of "game balance" we have...

I would still love to see the new template. The templates cannot be stopped, just the pre-entering of the data. I hope this doesn't stop your work on the template. I've already got most of my data up to the PHB2 entered, and I can add that info as I need it. New templates are what I need till I...

Overall its not bad IMHO. Compared to "regular" flight: No minimum squares of movement required There are no Clumsy penalties There is no Altitude Limits The primary reason it "lands" is that it is a move action Power rather than a natural mode of movement, which precludes the ability to...
