On my last session, Thursday 13 May, I used: D&D 3.5 Core Books Serpent Citadel (from S&S/WW) from where I have stolen most of the current adventure But it was a short and rules light session.

Very nicely done. Might I suggest adding: Preform (weapon drill) [from the Complete Warrior] and Knowledge (history) to the Footman's list of class skills? Just to reinforce their flavor. Writing out, and thus formalizing, their code of conduct might be worthwile too. Great work, hope we...

It strikes me as balanced but . . . unfinished? It simply does not make sense to me. The weapon proficiencies are a representation of the culture the character grew up in, so, unless this character grew up splitting their time evenly with her dwarven and elven relative, she should have to...

She deserves the rest. No, Ivy is following a sensible path but needs to be careful about slipping too far into moral relativism. She must be prepared to deal with Amaril, or the things which defeat him, in due course. Arrows of Necromancer Slaying should be on her shopping list.

I am interested. I have playtested for: Hunter: the Reckoning An unnamed AEG project that is not yet on the schedule AEG's d20 project line I have been gaming for 27 years and I have played/GMed a lot of systems during that time. I am very skilled with system manipulation and d20 in...

astralpwka, What's the status on Soul Harvest II? I sent my files in and I know you recieved them. What going on? Just want to know. Thanks, -Sean

Nice work, very well thought out. I had some reservations about the Prowess skill myself, some good ideas there. I would drop the arousal penalties to -1 for aroused/horny, its only a minor distraction in most cases.

Very nice. The only changes I can see that I would immediately wish to make would be: Make "Always Yours" an ability gained at 1st Bondblade lvl and provides a competence bonus equal to the Bondblade's class level to all disarm attempts. I would move "Its a Kind of Magic IV" to the 9th or...

We used to play in a Legend of the Five Rings (L5R) campaign, as L5R is based on a CCG, we used cards from the CCG as Swashbuckling/Whimsey cards. Much fun. I have been trying to put together a deck for my current D&D campaign by cribbing cards from various games (Warlord, Magic, Legend of the...

Been missing seeing work done on this, so what's up? Where has everyone gone?

I had thought about setting up a demi-god template. The one you have is an unusally combination of abilities. Why give them a block of fixed feats and not, say, a choice of any five based on their parantage? The only feat I would say that they should have fixed is one you did not include...

Very interesting indeed. But some questions and comments: Why not give them a d10 HD, they are fighters primarily, yes? Even if they are only striking to subdue. Suggest adding to prerequisites: Knowledge (philosophy or religion) 2 ranks Feat: Iron Will And they really seem like they...

But compare to the half-ogre, which has similar bonuses, natural armor and reach. At +3 that is the same as a half-dragon and I do not think it is that good. I think I would put it at a LA +2 and +4 for the HD for a total of +6.

Golem, the problem is that there is not much to criticize yet. What you have so far is just the theoretical basis for the class, which seems interesting. Once you start putting up numbers and rules, we system types will have something to really work with.

With the right mechanical device, exactly. Even a cranquin (sp?) requires a certain amount of pure brute physical strength to use. Elder-Basilisk, well put, but truely good archers using powerful bows were fairly rare historically. I was just noting that because you are a trained warrior...

Except for their greater range and penetraitive ability, their ability to be used by anyone, their ability to be kept ready to fire. Yes, they are very different weapons and used, historically, in very different ways. However, in D&D, there are not any of the histrorical limitations on bows...

Well, I cannot use the word without the re- attacked or it gets censored by the board's system . . . And, why should it not be? The prefix "re-" meaning: a) once more, again. b) back; with return to a previous state. (Oxford American Desk Dictionary) Second word: a) The firing lever of a...

Aaron, correct, Strength only effects load time. Get the half orc in the party to recock all of them and you are golden. Kamrain, same thing could be said of bows too. Yet they get Strength bonuses. New write up: Mighty Crossbows These crossbows are custom built using only the finest...

1) I'll look it up, thanks. 2) I am going to tinker with the chart in a bit, making all based on pluses and minuses against Strength bonus. 3) History and practicality? There may not be a rule against it, but that does not mean it is accurate. To my knowledge, heavy crossbow were not used...

Mighty Crossbows These crossbows are custom built using only the finest materials. It takes exception skill to make the weapon both accurate and hard hitting. In game terms, they must be master work in order to have a Strength bonus to damage. Hand and light crossbow may be improved up to...
