    Playable Expert (and general NPC class rant)

    I don't mind NPC classes at all either ... the expert is one of my favorites because it's so versatile in what you want to do ... just come up with a theme and 10 skills to support it. Warrior isn't bad, makes a perfect easy fighter like minion. If I want a group to have someone who can pick...

    Alternatives to XP costs

    create a separate pool of magic xp to draw from? ... it's more paperwork, but if every level you gain more magic xp (magic points?) you'll be able to spend it on different things. disenchanting items might give you more magic xp (4e ish or WoWish). what would you do with this magic xp? ... use...

    Optimize a Party of Werebears!

    Equipment and Gear size Use some other game ideas ... World of Darkness 1.0 (and the newer version would too i guess) ... have bound equipment that stays with you as you shape change, and in some cases allows you to use it too. or create a simple enchantment (like posted above) that allows...

    Does PC equipment tend to go into Hammerspace when not in use?

    when my brother DM'd back in 80's we learned to keep track of things on our character sheet. We had to have items recorded, paid for, and have a location for it ... and if there wasn't enough room to swing that two-handed sword (like in a 4ft wide tunnel you'd better have a dagger or...

    Templates and Special Abilities by Hit Die

    hey that's right ... for the half-dragon, the increase in HD only works for racial levels (monster HD not paragon) ... so that'd be one exception

    Templates and Special Abilities by Hit Die

    I stand corrected! ... in my defense, been waaay out of loop for a few years other than lurking.

    What Makes a Good Player?

    be involved in the descriptions ... even at your pc's detriment! ... like knowing your pc sucks, but playing it out anyway. DM'ing is tough enough, when players decide to help (not take over) describe scene's or get involved in details (weather, light source) it helps a lot. been reading...

    barbarins! or pirates...?

    sooo ... basically vikings who raid other sea going vessels rather than land settlements (or both). Go barbarian but add profession sailor as a class skill .. and maybe a few other skills that are associated with sailors. Edit: wait wait! I just read my sig and had an idea ... REAVERS from...

    Templates and Special Abilities by Hit Die

    not sure about those two ... but if you're a fiendish/celestial (or half-variants) you don't get different abilities with an increase in level ... only with an increase in 'monster' type hd. a bugbear would get the benefits of a template based on 3hd. a 7th lvl bugbear rogue would still get...

    Movie Fight Club: RD 2 Angels & Demons vs Star Trek

    I've only read A&D and while it was ok, the Da Vinci Code was much better. I'm not sure where all this hype for the movie is coming from. I'll see it, but probably when it comes to netflix. I will make attempts to see Star Trek again though!

    Trek Spoiler Spectacular! (Forked Thread: The new Star Trek movie is...)

    I did! ... I only wish I'd seen it with my brother ... he'd be able to point out which type of destroyer it was. We were just talking about how we liked (well I ALWAYS lost) SFB

    Powerful build and Hulking Brute are basically the same feats, correct? (hulking brute from dragonlance campaign setting)

    New Hulu Commercial

    haven't seen that one yet (well other than a minute ago) nor the eliza dushku one ... well made commercials.

    Stacking DR?

    so yes, basically everything is -1, and in the case of non-magic weapon attacks it's another -4. iirc that's physical damage only, ... that same example was attacked by someone wielding a burning stick/torch, the bludgeoning damage would get a -5 but the fire damage would be unmitigated.

    How George Lucas has warped my Sci Fi movie experience ...

    this all comes about from watching Serenity again last night, the first thing I did was watch the deleted scenes and some of the other bonus material and when Joss said anytime he thinks of Sci Fi he thinks of the Millennium Falcon ... and I said out loud to myself (and to my daughter, she's...

    Rate the new Star Trek Film

    enjoyed it immensely ... loved how they merged everything and changed everything. Loved even more how I read almost NO real spoilers from anyone here (to be fair, been lurking not posting lately) heard that main cast has signed up for at least 3 more films, very cool. one thing I did not...

    D&D 3.x 4e Dragonborn to 3.5

    no idea what the stats are out for ... here's my 3x conversion for dragonborn ... as a real pc race, not the races of dragon reincarnated type. • Dragonborn, medium humanoid (dragonblood) +2 str, -2 dex, +2 con +1 natural armor, Low-light vision, Favored class: Fighter New Feats: Wings...

    Can a summoned creature (i.e., demon) further gate in others?

    ah the good old days of 1e ... when your demons and devils could summon, then the summoned could summon ... it was a players nightmare, god I hated (the respectful type of hate, he was IS really really good) my brother as DM sometimes
