    Shouldn't drawing arrows from your quiver be a 'drawing a weapon' move equivelent act

    Are you guys saying that my Dwarven Hatchet Thrower might not need Quick Draw to keep up with the mechanically superior-in-nearly-every-way archers? And if so, can i Kiss you? And if so, can i offer you a breath mint? And if so, do you like winterfresh? ^_^

    non interferring murder witness: evil or not?

    Not Nice Neutral. Definitely falls into the "heck I'm not putting my neck out for that guy" behavior. We can say that the character is hardly heroic in this one instance, but that doesn't mean his choice is villainous.

    The new Battlestar

    I'll play Devil's Advocate vs some of jdavis' comments for giggles (and because I actually enjoyed the show, and am looking forward to tomorrow's episode... no accounting for taste ^_^) I thought the first five minutes of the show were fine. Is it silly that the Cylons bother to board...

    Does anyone do non-overpowered anymore?

    I run Exalted... so, I guess my campaign certainly is overpowered, in every way, shape, and form. My peasant will kick your fighter's butt.. nyah ^_^ I wont pick a side as to which is better (low or high power) but I do have to admit that I'm seeing more products released designed to make for...

    XP for Missing Players

    XP falls into two categories for me, Session XP and Chapter/Story XP. Everytime you show, you get Session XP. You don't show- you don't get Session XP. Everytime you finish up a "Chapter" (usually like getting a major accomplishment done) in the story you get roughly another Session of XP...

    I've Whetted My Dice With Blood

    I agree with what most others are saying, and nimisgod summed it up nicely so I won't repeat all my sentiments that comprise his short list. Personally, I've faced identical situations. Players have had their characters literally beg to be stabbed to death repeatedly and been in total...

    What are your beefs with the d20 system?

    I dislike the d20. Which kind of makes me ask why I'm here. ^_^ In seriousness, even with taking ten and taking twenty, I dislike the idea that someone with no experience (and max ranks) can get 5-25 on a skill check, while a far more experienced person (lets say oh 6th) can get 10-30 on that...

    I Have FFX-2! (Anybody know how long it is?)

    Great game, I just beat it as well... well I beat it at 84%, didn't get the fun stuff for 100%. If you do just about everything you can in the game, it is indeed about as long as FFX. it also has replayability, a hundred level dungeon, etc etc, that can extend the game out considerably... not...

    Your house is burning--what do you choose?

    Window + Bookshelf by Window = Empty Bookshelf and Lots of RPG hardbacks on the pavement. Followed by one me.

    Anyone ever notice that the 3E Blue Dragon's head...

    Tossing Martha Stewart and a slightly nauseous Dick Gephardt in the Rancor pit?? That Jabba, he so crazy!

    How could Kobolds defend their lair? Part 3 of game session posted.

    60 ft long corridor that slopes downward.. at the end of it is a U turn in the passage that turns into a 60 ft upward slope. in the center of the turn, a trigger sets off twin boulders, one rolling from the slope they're about to go up, and one rolling from the slope they came from. Badaboom-...

    Draconomicon art gallery

    Dragon Walking / Running by Lockwood just blows me away. Gold Dragon and Red Dragon by Spencer are amazing as well. They really look like massive powerhouses of wisdom and malice, respectively. Chapter 1 Start by Grant-West is worthy of an entire campaign chapter in the stories it could tell.

    Final Fantasy X-2 Release Date?

    It'll be on shelves the 19th. Well, it better be. The governments of the World know that if it isn't, the moon is history. Either way I guess I win really, I've been itching for awhile to press this lil red button. ohh button..

    Overused quotes

    I hate when posters seem to randomly quote someone (maybe the last post they read) and what they say has nothing to do with the person they're quoting.

    Heart Attack

    For people saying DC insane, I'd like to note that a lot more people survive a heart attack than say, getting injected with three gallons of Giant Spider Venom. erm.. Ok but still, if we take a look at some of the fort saves for poisons that kill people, their saves (unless we have actual...

    Plausibility

    Might want to look into how mutants and masterminds does it. Instead of relying on Fort, they have a Damage Save. Depending on how much you fail or succeed upon it, you're either ok, taking a -1 cumulative to rolls, up to knocked out or dead. Instead of having a set hp amount, eventually...

    Wizards: What happens when they lose their spellbooks?

    Recommendation 56 I say they wander into the Goblin Steppes.. they're attacked by 800 goblins who knock them out.. rip their choice gear off (ie - yes even the underwear).. then squabble.. fight till there are only like 30 left who agree, bloodied and bruised, to each walk a different direction...

    Fond memories AKA When you munchkined out as a newbie

    First game, 3.0.. a good number of us were newbies and we got it in our heads that we were able to use the character generator to roll as many times as we wanted for stats. ... 70 rolls later i was sitting on a satisfactory 65 point buy halfling thief with, of all things, 14 STR, 20 DEX, 14...
