    DM's and Rules Lawyers - How Would You Rule this Deadly Situation?

    I concur with the movement provokes AoO. Phatom steed is ally but soft cover does not provide cover for melee attacks. could have taken standard action to do full defense. Then moved with a +4 dodge bonus. Talked to his buddies to get someone else to take the AoO so he could withdraw. But...

    Critical Fumble?

    My DM's house rule is... if you role a 1 on an attack you then make a reflex save DC 15 to keep you from dropping your weapon. So as you go up in levels the chance of you disarming yourself reduces. Of course my Dwarven fighter "Magnus" would drop a weapon every game session.

    I didn't get two issues from my one and only time I got a yearly subscription... never got replacements... so i didn't bother renewing my sub. Support your local game store... tell them to reserve you a copy every month.

    Official Nostalgia Thread (thread necromancy)

    You didn't have Darkvision... You had infravision... you saw heat forms... and if someone pulled out a torch you were blinded for a bit. Oh ... and undead snuck up on you all the time... cause they don't have any bodyheat And we loved it.

    Two extra skill points per level (and character backgrounds)

    Clerics take a beating. I can't see how they would just get 2/lvl you have 4 key skills Concentration, Heal, Knowledge religion and Spellcraft.... Now compare them to druids and druids have sp's to burn. Another one I have problems with is why do fighters have less than Barbarians? They...

    Do you like D&D?

    For me it isn't so much this game is better over that one... It is the GM that makes or breaks a game. When I was playing earlier editions of D&D I had crappy GM's (didn't know it at the time) But since I've found some new GM's that are amazing... that happened to coincide with 3.0 and 3.5 so...

    Rate Spielberg's War of the Worlds

    Wife and I left the movie... Looked at each other and both thought it sucked. Over-hyped. The whole hiding in the cellar was drawn out way too much. I didn't need to wait 5 minutes for them to hide from the snake sensor. You would think advanced alien technology would rely on more than...

    I was watching it for a while... and I just got sick of all the propaganda crap that MTV was telling me. When did MTV sell out to corporate america.... basicly they are just a huge marketing tool so all the prebubecent kids can gobble up the capitilistic crap they advertise. I heard some...

    RPGs: Win, Lose, or Draw?

    Should you be able to win at an RPG? Now I've played in games where... the GM wouldn't let us win. So for the question... Yes a player should be able to win. (the key word being should... now if your stupid I think the gm has the right to beat you up and leave you for dead) But with that...

    Counter tumble. You roll your tumble check against there's if you win you get the AoO just give all your NPC's ranks of tumble. On the other hand tumbling usually gets you out of sticky situations. I guess if you guys are that bloodthirsty for player deaths... then yeah hose the tumble...

    What does d&d do to people, really?

    So gamers are above average... it’s a thinking game it makes sense. I've got some memory problems... I'm starting to blame it on a head injury from college... I'm not sure what happened since all I remember is waking up the next day in the hospital (that was 13 years ago). Well I just saw my...

    Do you have any dice superstitions

    I like to roll my dice until I get ones... because statistically the odds of rolling another one are higher. Of course every time you roll the die its still a 1 in 20... etc.. chance. But I was notorious for rolling ones at the worse possible time. My GM would also make you roll a reflex...
