    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    LOL I, of course, respectuflly disagree. And not every class gets Improved Uncanny Dodge, at least by default. I think the real question is: why doesn't the core monk get it? Monks are supposed to be ready for action, and if anyone should be able to avoid a flanking penalty, I think it would...

    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    That's a good idea. :) If you want a full-on base class that focuses on this concept, I fully endorse SteelDraco's version. I approached the idea several times, but every time I got down to the nitty gritty, I became dissatisfied. Either the class was fairly martial, in which I would imagine you...

    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    Archetypes are really just Alternate Class Features from Unearthed Arcana (3e). In fact, many of the classes in FoD are based around a similar concept, but in creating a new base class, I am free to do things like breaking up existing progressions or changing the skill list. The Corsair and its...

    [Tripod Machine] Conquest of the Universe

    Quite a few people are liking what they see. But I haven't gotten much feedback about what people do or don't like. Does anyone have any questions about the game or the setting?

    SWSE Galaxy Tiles?

    They're of good quality. Are they worth it? Well, honestly, I still ended up using my Chessex vinyl mat more often. It's your call.

    Eberron inconsistencies

    Obviously not very many. I don't see an inconsistency, unless the Knight Phantoms don't have the potential to be important.

    "He's beyond my healing ability..."

    Where does it say in the rules that a cleric has the magical power to stop people from dying?

    Mearls: Abilities as the core?

    WTH? My designs on Conquest of the Universe keep getting smaller and tidier, and then I read this: It's like he's peeking at my notes.

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo Copyright Issues at Obsidian Portal?

    A court might find that licensing digital versions of those cards to users, or the OP site in general, is a commercial use that should be protected.

    Tome of Horrors News--Please Read

    I want this so bad, but I have a hard time justifying the price just for the bragging rights. Many of my favorites are already in the Pathfinder bestiaries and I can do conversions myself.

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo Copyright Issues at Obsidian Portal?

    I'm not taking a side, but I think it's apparent that he was, in fact, distributing images of Paizo's cards, for the purposes for which the cards were intended, "tiny" or not. It is clearly infringing. Is this Fair Use? Good question.

    Initial thoughts

    I'm fine with that. I don't actually have a problem with Claws costing the same as Cosmic Power, or whatever. Or characters being in very different power levels in terms of their capabilities. The problem I see is that there is a dividing line between "balance really isn't a concern" and...

    Initial thoughts

    ... Or that GMS rushed a project to market before fully dealing with all of the wrinkles of a new game system he found appealling. Hmmm.... :)

    What should Lawful elves worship?

    I would expect them to be "joiners." They form cliques, try to alter social environment to be more hiearchical, and philosophically, attack perceied inconsistencies in others. Like, Palpatine is NE, because his be-all, end-all is dominating others and proving his superiority. Vader is CE...

    Who puts the "class" in Armor Class?

    "Hit points" makes sense if you realize that in older games, damage was 1 point. So 3 "hit points" meant you had to get hit three times.
