    Beguiler in core books game

    Beguilers make fine Rogue stand-ins for most situations, and a Beguiler who takes a few rogue levels (preferably before starting the beguiler levels) is a superb magical-rogue type of character. They will not be heavy damage dealers, but if the campaign is more urban/intrigue/political/ or...

    Need spell to prevent teleport

    For myself, I created a magical material that is rare and (relatively) costly, but otherwise well suited for a construction material, "Shield-Stone Granite" which has the property of suppressing Teleportation And Conjuration effects within proximity of a substantial quantity (such as quantities...

    I'm thinking of going back to 2e!

    I resemble those remarks! I have also been bitten by the backwards bug lately, much like this person. I wonder if he has reneged on the 2ed move and fell back in with all us lemmings of 3rd edition?

    Vorpal weapons are all the rage with the Farmers who are Level 20 Commoners!

    Free RPG Week at Green Ronin!

    I had only minor delays in getting my copies. Regardless, I think GR just won over a new dedicated customer. Huzzah Green Daimyo!

    Archivist and/or Spirit Shaman Experiences? What are they like in-game?

    I am not sure if the author commented on the Adept directly. It wouldn't matter in my own campaign, as I don't use the Adept, but have other NPC classes that are similar (i.e. Acolyte for a Cleric-lite class, and Hedge Wizard or Witch (just a name) for a Wizard-lite class, as well as others for...

    What is your local game store situation?

    In Colorado Springs there are at least 3 stores, and if you count the relative proximity to metro Denver (about 60 miles) and the suburb communities (even closer), then I dont even know what the count might get up to. Lucky, I guess. But alas, with my current schedule and work/college...

    Archivist and/or Spirit Shaman Experiences? What are they like in-game?

    Actually, Mousferatu (not the writer of Archivists, but also worked on Heroes of Horror book alongside that writer) has stated that the originator/writer of the Archivist never intended Domain spells or specific Prestige Class Spells be included in this ability to gather spells. Easy enough for...

    Would you buy a hardcopy Tome of Horrors 3.5?

    Well, TOH1 + SRD = Perfect Mix. What is missing? Gith, Slaadi, Beholder, Ilithids, and a few others. What you get instead more than makes up for it.

    Desert of Desolation...sort of

    That is what I thought when I saw it. Anyhow, sorry to derail the thread with my new avatar. :uhoh: I think the Desert of Desolation in the cold is a great idea. you should share your changes when you have stuff down.

    Desert of Desolation...sort of

    If the horse thing bothers you, use Yaks for the major beasts of burden (like in Tibet). Although in a fantasy setting, why not have a wooly horse breed?!

    Conversion: Fantasy Rules into Star Frontiers

    I am not aware of any sort of mod or inclusion of Expedition to the Barrier Peaks with Star Frontiers, but when I finish this project (Fantasy Version Star Frontiers), then it seems like this would make a great idea to bridge the two settings if desired... allowing the Fantasy types to gain...

    Desert of Desolation...sort of

    Change the overtly desert nomad (Persian/Arabic types) for Mongol type tundra people. In the latter portion, change the glass sea into an actual vast ice sheet.

    It would be a definite 'must purchase'. I love that book/PDF.

    Roger E. Moore?

    I hope that limited contact puts a little sliver of interest back in Roger, and that maybe he might check into rpg's again... and see how much he is missed. His articles on races really formed my understanding of the core races. I would love to see his input on some topics.
