My fave five, off the top of my head (in no particular order): -Macross Plus -Cowboy Bebop -Trigun -Macross Zero (what exists so far, at least - I'll be damned if if ep. 3 isn't the most beautifully animated fighting I have ever witnessed) -Umm... Macross Plus again? I dunno.. let's just say...

I'd just like to say that some of the fence-sitters here need to watch Macross Plus, Cowboy Bebop, and maybe Grave of the Fireflies. Thinking that crappy tentacle-rape hentai you saw once represents the artistic boundaries of anime is like saying that cheap porn you rented last week speaks for...

Nobody's mentioned anything utterly broken yet... though the Radiant Servant is powerful. Things to watch out for: Hulking Hurler (CW). Easy to do hundreds of thousands of damage with that thing. The revised Dweomerkeeper from the CD Web Enhancement. How does Wish or Miracle 4/day with no xp...

You can steal some good ones from the various Macross colony ships: http://www.steelfalcon.com/Macross/Images/city7color.gif http://www.steelfalcon.com/Macross/Images/macross7length.gif http://www.steelfalcon.com/Macross/Images/mroadlaunch.gif...

Regarding your Toughness tweak: There is an Improved Toughness in Complete Warrior which gives +1 HP per HD (increases as you gain HD/levels). It can't be taken more than once, but stacks with all the various other toughness feats as usual. Do you think that would work better than replacing all...

Woo, where to begin... first off, I am the sole hardcore powergamer in my group. Among the others, only a few are even aware of most of the rules. Add to that the fact that my favorite kind of build to optimize is the straight-up combat monster, and you get combats in which I do the vast...

I'd say all the usual bonuses apply. Seems to me like that's the reason it specifies "as if the character who had been wielding it had dealt a successful hit" rather than "as if some average schmoe had dealt a successful hit." --Impeesa--

Frenzied Berserker gives you Deathless Frenzy, the greatest tanking ability ever. Damage is irrelevant for 3+con rounds. :D --Impeesa--

I should point out that some d20 games - such as Spycraft, which has already been mentioned and comes highly recommended - are basically stand alone if you already know how to create and level up a character. All you have to do is remember the formula for the xp table (minimum xp for level N is...

Yeah, I don't think they do it quite so much now, but something as old as SW d20 would of course still be at the higher sticker price. Also, I see you mention "since moving back up here in September." Wouldn't happen to be a UNBC student coming from out of town or something, eh? --Impeesa--

Bear in mind that Great White tends to sell at like a 15% markup on the MSRP. Or at least, they did, until WotC stopped putting Canadian prices on their books (newer stuff seems to be cheaper... they had Complete Warrior for $2 less than the nearby Coles)... but Star Wars was before that, so...

Warhulk, from Miniatures Handbook. --Impeesa--

My 6th level character in a fairly standard module crawl (just started Speaker in Dreams) has about 2250 gp worth of cash and gems on hand. What's funny is that I - the monstrous berserker and part-time paladin of freedom - act as the group accountant. ;) --Impeesa--

Both true stories, but people have paid homage to them in subsequent games, and then tell that story as though it were the original. Most of the people who say they (or a friend) were there for the original occurrance are probably wrong. ;) --Impeesa--

The feat to let you flurry with a non-monk weapon of choice has appeared in Dragon, which is good enough for many DMs. I've thought about this one before - fighter 4/monk 16 seems like the best split for a core-only build, ending up with BAB +16 and most of the monk goodies. As for dealing...

Your BAB is +12. Your iterative attacks have a -5 and -10 penalty to hit. Therefore, at the beginning of your turn, you can take up to a -12 to hit, and add an equal amount to damage. The penalty and bonus apply to all melee attacks made until the start of your next turn. If you took the full...

And for all non-intensive purposes, he reverts to the Bruce Wayne persona, which is probably an Aristocrat or Expert. Some multiclass CG aristocrat/paladin variant would cover him for all intents and purposes, though. There I go again suggesting odd multiclassed builds... I guess that's what I...

I've only ever run into that type once, and it was more of an off-hand comment ("doesn't that game make you go kill people?"). It really does stem from ignorance more than anything else. And on a slightly less topical note: what do you get when you play country music backwards? You get yer dawg...

Alternity holds a very special place in my heart. Play Alternity. You know you want to. :) Excellent resource: Alternity.net. The fans there do a good job of archiving new material and stuff to help expand the game even though it's out of print. --Impeesa--

Sure, your cohort can take Leadership. You're his cohort now. He's still your cohort too, so to meet the level limits on cohorts, you both alternate losing two levels to be behind the other until you hit level 1, run out of con, and die. :) --Impeesa--
