By spending so much time and energy on OSC's opinion, we're giving it far more weight and importance than it deserves.

Thanks, Staffan and Thanee. That's what I thought. I had two paragraphs written setting up scenarios and whatnot, and it was just more clear to ask the question directly. :) Still, there should be a glossary entry for pinpoint.

You, sir, are absolutely correct! Those are the supplements I'm looking for. By the way - I may have come across as a little snotty when I said Phil Reed didn't reply. I didn't mean that at all smarmy, and he has always produced top-notch work. His colleages at Ronin Arts as well!

What does "pinpoint" mean?

Folks, Before a hard drive crash I had two resources I really dug. They are both lost to the electron ether now. One was a compilation of character traits (advantages and flaws) by Philip Reed, but he's not answering my PM or email I was given for him. The other is a free list of all OGC...

I'd love to see 'em. Got a URL? I think I can qualify for both shadowcraft mage and argent savant... I'll post a build that does so by 10th level if I can. Glad I already took some Bluff.;) My concern about the class abilities of the shadowcraft mage/argent savant affecting my casting time...

I'm willing to go outside the core books (edit: and make a case for it). I'm not going to get he feats I need to take most PrCs, and certainly none of the ones in the DMG appeal to my sorcerous heart. - Ket PS - thanks for contributing, Elephant!

Male gnome sorcerer, 3rd level, is seeking out a prestige class for fun and more, probably power. Must not suck. Prestige class must like: STR 6, DEX 14, CON 16, INT 12, WIS 14, CHA 18; Skills (ranks only): Bluff +3, Concentration +6, Craft (Alchemy) +1, Craft (Brewing) +2, Diplomacy +1...

The DM does not have the solution. - Ket

I DM a group that had a fourth level bard - a kobold, no less! - mixed into a group of 7th to 9th-level characters of more traditional types (the bard player had just lost his character for at least a few sessions and effectively started at the floor of the level mix). He was responsible for...

Hmm, are we sure about that? It seems like Ranged Precision is considered an attack by the wording, and Shot/Run may allow that. Of course, I could be confusing Ranged Precison fluff with rules... Grr. I guess I'm just trying to rationalize so I don't have to house rule an exception. ;) I...

Eberron? Is there any mention of Eberron? I've been more interested in abbies since ECS came out and they're good recurrent villains (especially there).

OMFG, that is hilarious. I think I'll run something like that...

I've been opening a few boosters o' D&D here and there and am wondering: What's a Bladebearer Hobgoblin? Some tribe? What's a Graycloak Ranger? An order? What's a Carrion Tribe Barbarian? I think I have a few others I haven't asked - I'll have to look over what I have and follow up. I'm not...

He is fighting the real war! The Ringworld is BIG! He is the King. He becomes the King. He is not the rightful King. The virus is the message. The Gungan lives. D&D themes: Kitiara is a Dragonlord. He becomes the Demiurge. Iggwilv's daughter is alive... sort of. Lolth is responsible. The Temple...

That's the Wizard of New York, isn't it?

More to read! The folks above contributed must-reads, so get to it. A second for Mote in God's Eye and practically anything by Heinlein, especially the ones named already. Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. (If you haven't read this, stop and go read it now.) John Steakley's Armor. (Holy crap...

I got some really good wine and... well, I better run an Eberron campaign to find a D&D fit for my LEGO Star Destroyer! (No socks and I'm 34! Woohoo!) Walnuts can be Vecna's... wait, this is a family board, right? Anyway, they're powerful artifacts that will allow the "wielder" to create...

So you acknowledge that 3.0 rules as written do not work. In fact, you had to house rule them to make sense. Now, are you intentionally ignoring the fact that the 3.5 weapons are not identical in stats? (A dagger is a piercing or slashing weapon that can be thrown without impovised weapon...

Pardon me and at the risk of being spanked by a moderator, this is a <DEXTER>Stooopid</DEXTER> argument. Realistically the argument about equivalencies at different sizes holds no water - a shortsword for a human is not a dagger for an ogre which is also not a longsword for a goblin, no matter...
