I don't have information on the 3.5 ranger, but I have seen a Dragon with the preview in it. From what I saw (I don't own the issue) the class seemed pretty much in line with Monte Cook's ranger (which I have). Would it be okay to use Monte Cook's ranger until the switch, or would you prefer I...

I'd be interested in playing Mackarius. Warrior, hmm? Can't decide whether to be a fighter/ranger or a straight fighter.... Although I suppose, being CE, he could be a barbarian, but I'm not sure if that's appropriate given the setting. When do you need to see a character sheet? TWK PS: I...

Argh... too late. I was considering a psychic warrior/slayer, but I take it you've got what you need. Can I still get in on the waiting list? TWK

About that "4th-level Egoist with Str 20" -- my bad. I just picked stuff arbitrarily for the sake of argument. I didn't give much thought to how such a character might have Str 20 because I didn't believe it was central to the problem. As for Psionic Combat, how about removing the point cost...

... for a 4th-level character? I'd call that a lot. And I don't know precisely what gets their goats about psionics. They aren't being very clear, or maybe I'm not understanding correctly. Apparently it busts their chops when a low-level character can mind blast half a dozen bugbears and end...

Given: I am a 4th-level psion (egoist) with Str 20. Which of the following is true? I have 7+3+3= 13 power points per day. I have 7+3= 10 power points per day. We're having an argument down here about the way psions gain extra power points. Half the group thinks the PsiHB is far too...

Random Interludes with TWK I was working one night in the office When a man I had recently killed Called me up from a phone near my building So I looked out the window at him He had the same obsequious manner That was the reason I had him killed So to calm my nerves I sang this song to him Over...

Random Interludes with TWK I do not understand this 'mouse magic' which compels me to do thy bidding. Kindly do not interrupt while I plot thy downfall.

Random Interludes with TWK I take no offense at your words. You just don't understand the bond I have with Boo. Boo is an asset to us all.

Random Interludes with TWK It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere I'm all alone, more or less Let me fly far away from here Fun! Fun! Fun! in the Sun! Sun! Sun! I want to lie, shipwrecked and comatose, Drinking fresh mango juice Goldfish shoals, nibbling at my toes Fun! Fun! Fun! in...

Worst fantasy? Probably some little thing from Scandinavia that MST3K did, called "Jack Frost." The title character was only in the last 15 minutes of the movie! As for Sci Fi ... hmmm ... Probably "It Conquered the World." This was so bad that Frank Zappa once mentioned that you could see...

"P-Kat -- I thought I smelled your stench the moment I was brought on board." Don't worry -- just appease the Gnomes of Zurich and everything will be fine. Oh -- you didn't know they ran extortion rings? Haven't you been reading "Phil and Dixie?" TWK "Knights of the Dinner Table" -- Funny...

You want to know the truth? The truth is fnord. The fnord edition of Dungeons & Dragons will come out in several months, but you must know fnord in order to purchase it. What is fnord? If you have to ask, you aren't cleared to know. TWK

Heh, not so froggy now we destroyed that ring of yours that gave you so many feats, are you? Let's see you try to use Great Cleave with a 10-ft reach and knock us all backwards now, ya great pansy.... :D TWK

Hey -- why does he have Armor Proficiency? Is that one of his feats from the Strong class? Just seems rather ... unnecessary ... unless you're running a "near-reality" campaign where there's some body armor. TWK Who doesn't have d20 Modern but understands the principles.

Arrg! If someone says, "I don't want to pay $90 for something that contains less original material than what I paid $60 for," then there are people who respond with comments like "Quit whining, suck it up, and shell out." I think that position is just about as immature as the whining. It...

I think my biggest problem is the same one I had back when 3E was first announced and released. Everyone's going to be playing this new publication, spending money on it, &c. No one is going to be spending money on "boring old" 3E. So basically that means my set of core rulebooks is going to...

Has anybody else noticed their hardback RPG books' covers are warped? I got both the Monsternomicon and GURPS WWII recently, and both are warped. The GURPS book is warped more than the Monsternomicon. Has anybody else noticed this problem, or am I just weird? :) Also, is there a solution...

Well, if Skip Williams says the proof is in the pudding, I guess I'm going to have to be patient :) I hope those tactics given for the Pit Fiend are merely suggestions, not actual notes. It's unclear which they are: hard rules, or guidelines. I mean, it's okay for a zombie or a skeleton to...

It depends on the focus of your game. If your game is heavily into the tiny nuances of equipment, then of course a Karabiner 98k is not an M1 Garand. However, if the focus is on something else (like, say, superheroes or the machinations of crazed Nazi scientists) then you can just come up with...
