First, decide if your answer to questions that start "Can I do . . . " is going to be "Yes," or "just a sec, let me check the rules . . . ." Make sure your players know that too. Decide if "Yes" means, in general or just until I've had a chance to do the research. Second, sit down with a...

Stinking cloud, but only when you need it. --G

If you're upstream from the buggers and they keep hitting your boats with flaming arrows, turn it around on them. Load some boats with barrels of pitch (harvested from the handy local trees). Send them downstream into the elven forest and invite them to blow 'em up. If you've got problems...

Boghum Freeheart War . . . it's an ugly business. There are kids alive today who have no memory of the Last War, no real memory at any rate. Sure, they might know an uncle, or a cousin, or a town hero who served in the war, but they've never seen it up close. Never smelled it on their...

I can field this one . . . . Between p. 142 and 144, King Boranel ran into a nasty wight. He failed his saves and, well, you get the picture . . . . --G

I go with evil the likes of which man cannot comprehend. Then again, my D&D game is heavily influenced by CoC. This means that your average evils are things that you might want to work with, just to prevent the really Evil guys from winning. Of course, my PCs haven't had a chance to see the...

Ditto for what Henry said. Also, WotC made the conscious choice to place psionics in Eberron but to not require the XPH for its use. This means that they can't put too much Psionic info in the CSB. However, I would expect to see substantially more psionic information in a forthcoming book...

Hey nonamazing, do you work at the Park Meadows Borders? --G

Read the order of operations under "Level Advancement" on page 58 of the PHB. You gain ability scores before you gain hit points or skill points, therefore, you gain the extra skillpoints or hit points on the same level where you gain the ability score increase. I'm not sure what you mean by...

I'd just like to point out that we should be very nice to Diaglo. I mean, after all, he just said something nice about a 3ed product. He's probably not feeling well, maybe a fever . . . . :) I'm glad to see that the place of alignment in Eberron has been considered and matches up with my...

Double, double, toil and trouble, Fire burn and cauldron bubble, Cool it with a baboon's blood, This double post is gone for good. --G

I think it depends on the art. Some images look better in black and white than they would in color. Some color images couldn't properly be rendered to a black and white image (or a grayscale image). I think the artistic requirements of the piece should dictate the media used. If you were...

There's no problem in my mind unless the party is bringing survey equipment with them into the dungeon (something I think my players are getting ready to do). I give them rough dimensions and let them draw their own map . . . . I look forward to the times when they go "No, this corridor can't...

I'm thinking think-o. I suspect that what Keith meant was that the genres of film were influenced by the two great wars. Keith-- I just wanted to say good work! --G (who remembers gcp and trin)

No, but a Wiz 3/ Cleric 7/MyT 10 with a scroll of shapechange could! --G

Ghostwalk. It's the most under rated setting out there. It's got some interesting and neat variations on your basic D&D game and also has opportunities for any type of game. --G

Hey Stannis-- Now that it's been outed as a hoax, why don't you clear your name and identify the source? Otherwise, right now, you get to have credit for spreading this trollish nonsense throughout the internet. It'd be a shame if WotC decided you deserved to be served for libel and had a...

Thanks. By the time I got to the end, I'd forgotten where I'd started. --G

I'm not sure I agree with that. The magic system in Mage: The Ascension was neither predictable nor reliable. It was also one of the best magic systems I've ever used! --G

I'm counting 10. Where are the other 4 from? --G
