examples, please? I'm pretty sure that I can conflate any example of yours into a category of "just damn selfish," so be careful. And yeah, for all your talk of aspiring to be NG, well, that sure sounds like an NG believer. Mouseferatu the Benefactor! Extreme law and extreme chaos enable...

...and Good is not inherently good or bad, and Evil is not inherently good or bad. Seriously. The game tends to equate Good with selflessness, and Evil with selfishness. Thus, Good does not mean good. Example: Dan and Ari are very hungry. Dan is holding a loaf of bread. The 100% Good thing...

Bastion of Broken Souls was published in 2002. That makes it five years. The entire thing, from the MacGuffin driving the plot to the meeting with part 1's jailer, is easily viewed through Law (or absence of chaos) =bad, Chaos (or absence of law) =better. Heck, this is going to be the core...

sorry, you all lose Peet's Summer House. I make this a gallon at a time. EDIT: Though I disagree strongly with their assertion that you use boiling water to make this. I use 90 Celsius water, and I can taste the difference! Much better!

yeah, this is basically the respose, though you should try to be more subtle, e.g. "hey, so remember at my anniversary party when the clown caught on fire and dipped his head in that vat of acid to put it out? ha ha, good times. oh, you weren't there? but you responded that you would be...

More often than is healthy, but then again, I love that my bad guys actually get a lot of screen time. The BBEG in this fight didn't really participate until the second half, as she spent almost the entire first half drinking potions. So that's kind of a wave, but not really. Yes, this was...

good heavens, how could you possibly read all this advice? Handling a newborn is like being a DM: 1) Are the players having fun? 2) Am I having fun? 3) When was the last diaper changed? That's pretty much all you need. have fun! PS: regular d20s are chokables, but the big 2" diameter ones...

I, too, am in the market for dice. I need about fifty or so, after my wife threw them out. Oh, she's a naughty little druid, yes she is. http://www.chessex.com/ I haven't ordered from them yet, but they're strange in that they do not have an online order form. You're supposed to send them...

erm, I would lay off the map for now. A map will put boundaries on your imagination at this point. If anything, take notes for drawing your map later. For example,arctic mountains, for that dragon-worshipping yeti cult I always wantedswampland to the east, for that dragon-worshipping...

High-five to Cheiromancer for bringing up the timely marilith: Yesterday we finished a fight that we started a week ago. About halfway through yesterday's run, one of my players piped up with "why do people on the messageboards always say that combat lasts three rounds?" It took something...

All treasure is in platinum pieces. This will shave 10-40% of your time off.

yeah, I've been poking around the MIC, and this particular weapon quality rubs me three wrong ways: 1) no way is this thing only a +2 enhancement 2) no way is this thing getting through DR/Epic 3) no way is this thing getting through DR/- but that's the way it's written. Andy Collins strikes...

wowza, didn't expect to see this one again. I am amused that when I started this thread, I voted rolling. (still roll) but my next campaign is going to be point-buy, har. I'm thinkin 28 point buy, but ... maybe higher, I don't know.

I am of the opinion that banded mail is the only heavy armor that benefits from the "heavy treated as medium" recommendation. All others have to suffer.

example: Medium humanoid using a Large shield? a Small shield? What sort of penalties are there? Does it matter if the shield is heavy or light? What if there were armor spikes on the shield? Can you put Large spikes on a Medium shield?

possibly. I recall you ramping up to send your party off to Acheron somewhere, so yes, it is probable that we are thinking of the same ring. The one in my campaign adorns the finger of the Fighter/Holy Liberator. It's great fun to see this quasi-paladin call down a flame strike on demons...

I am the DM in question, and I haven't tinkered with Epic stuff yet. The party is teetering on the edge of 18th level, and I'm starting to advise the spellcasters who want to pursue epic magic on maxing out the appropriate skills. So I looked at the Fortify seed, and as far as I can tell, you...

I've seen this +4 bane trick on these boards before, and it smells like cheese. You do not need the Craft Epic Arms/Armor feat to make a +4 bane weapon. To me, that says "not epic." Is there anywhere in the rules that explicitly say that a +4 bane weapon penetrates DR/epic, or is that just...

hrm, these things don't make sense. Dimension Door is the required spell, but the effect references Greater Teleport. I guess the implication is that you can act in a round after GT but not after DD. The caster level of the boots is 7, so you could only take two people along anyway. I'm...

The Boots allow you three extremely short-range teleports per day, as greater teleport. so...this means you can take along a (large) group of people? Is this balanced or not? I think it's interesting that this is not a dimension door effect. If you can take along others, do you use the CL of...
