I'm writing a background for a new character. I need some help with the best mechanics. 10th level, any race from PHB. I'd like to build a knife fighter, both thrown and melee. Maybe ranger or rogue based. There's a knife melee PrC and a throwing knife specialist PrC which both look nifty...

Odd, why did it appear so far upwards among more recent threads? Hmmm, odd. Well then, never mind.

I'm only going to buy/start playing D&D 4th (if one is actaully coming, we don't even know there is one) if: 1. Less dependance on gear/magical gear, much less 2. Spellcasters are hit with the nerf stick....hard and repeatedly. Magic should be hard, expensive, and time consuming to learn...

Agreed. I think everyone is getting far far too worked up about all this. Just scan them and be done with it. Don't bother with receipts and all that crap. Do what you have to do. Geez, don't freak out about this copyright and receipts and legality.

Last year was my first time at Gencon, I'm planning to go this year. Regarding hotels......for your first year in Indy, yeah, stay downtown. But if you plan to return, look for much better deals a bit further out. Regarding the Ram....I couldn't even get in the door without being quoted a wait...

Are stats for the Kopru presented? Some fleshing out? I know they are in MM2, but has there ever been a 3.5 update/treatment of these underused creatures?

I like this. What is "Undead Type Modifier" though?

Hey now, the DM may be wrong about a rule or mistaken, but that doesn't mean he has control issues. There may be any number of reasons the DM is saying this is a rule: -Maybe he's been playing under a certain DM so long that this rule is given in his way of thinking; he may not even know it's...

I've played through these at GenCon last year with the author and I can tell you they are very cool. They're fast-paced, action and investigation oriented and have some nice continuity. I highly recommend the Treasure Hunter series of modules.

Personally I think the DM made a mistake by telling you what exactly happened, what book it was from. I would have described the consequences and then said what do you do? Now you have to figure out what happened, who done it, why, and where to find them for a little payback or (god forbid) he...

QUoted for truth. Mod him up. I'm snagging this for my sig.

I had a campaign changing, crossing the line moment in a campaign that ended the campaign. In the super hero game I was running just before I started running the current D&D game, the PCs were your classic costumed superheros, doing their best to keep Manhattan clean. But of course the police...

Shouldn't your link be for "http://shtar.pbwiki.com/Mastercrafting"?

Well, I did give them something, they're gestalt PCs. We all wanted to play with the gestalt rules from Unearthed Arcana so we gave it a go. At some point I want to try the generic classes rules from UA...that's another kettle of fish I know. Anyway, the gestalt-ness kicks their power level...

I made it clear and upfront before the game commenced that it was low magic. Nope, I'm not springing anything new on the players. But it might be nice to say after a lucrative mission, here are some better quality but not magical stuff you could buy. I don't have to really worry about...

What I want to get rid of is this dependance on the item. It seems in the current game, if a PC gets robbed/taken/swindled/captured and his +3 holy flaming bursting bastard sword of greatness is removed from him, and he is relegated to a normal or masterwork greatsword, he will whine because...

I am running a low magic D&D 3.5 game. Magic has been toned down, both spells and magic items, a lot. Though I don't want people to become dependant on their magic gear as tends to happen in vanilla D&D, I do want different levels of quality when it comes to arms and armor but don't want it...

For those interested in specifics: Githyanki.....they have spent the better part of the last millenia wiping out the Githzerai. Their society is very PeaceKeeper-like. The military has control of most parts of society...social policy, economics, government and the law, everything is rigidly...

I am thinking of shaking my campaign up. I'd like some input and feedback on what I plan to do. We're playing a low magic D&D campaign in Magnamund, the setting for Mongoose Publishing's Lone Wolf RPG. Love the world (I was a huge fan of the LW Adventure Books of the 80s), hate the rules they...
