    Again the Sneak Attack Mage

    Tieflings suck at being Tieflings anyway. Apparently being blood related to a succubus gives you a charisma penalty?

    No Second Edition Love?

    I pray to Gods, or not, I dont game with them. Any DM with a God complex needs to seek medical help, not switch back to 1e or 2e.

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    People wonder why Lawful Evil is my preferred alignment.

    Anyone seen Rolemaster Classic?

    I loved RM in comparison to 2e, but I dont think I'd play RM instead of 3.5. Still, I have lots of fond memories.

    DM's: How do you deal with powergamers?

    Clerics are overpowered to begin with. Powergamed clerics are the most powerful characters in the game, bar none. I'd argue they are better by far than even natural spell druids. I wouldnt be afraid to give him a magic weapon, every swing with the weapon is one less spell he casts. He can only...

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    I would never play D&D with a DM who felt I should be a babysitter to all the little tykes he put in his game. Never. Or, I'd take levels in Blackguard and kill every single one. His choice.

    DM's: How do you deal with powergamers?

    Clerics are very capable of making the will save that disjunction forces. Sadly, the fighters and archers and rogues are utterly destroyed by this spell, so Raloc's suggestion may be the worst possible idea.(hehe...).

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    Unless the babies are as big as dogs, and have already killed people, and detect as evil, in which case, its a-ok, and fine and dandy.

    Half-Ogre Level Adjustment

    We had a half-dragon/half-giant that monkey gripped a huge spiked chain with large and in charge and the 10 level strength boosting prc that lets you swing at squares instead of people. He was gross, but the same campaign had a lich necromancer(mine) a feral tiefling grappler, and a half-fey...

    Anyone seen Rolemaster Classic?

    We had a player do just this: He was the king's son, or some such, had a million gold, bought crazy items, immediately died, and then tried to "get the items". I was GM, and unfortunately, he got killed by a Hydra, at level 1, the Hydra wasnt giving the gear back, nor was the party going back...

    Anyone seen Rolemaster Classic?

    I loved Background options to death.

    No Second Edition Love?

    I dont appreciate it. I especially dont like being told, "Sorry, you cant jump 5 feet, it isnt on your sheet. So you try to jump it, fail, and fall in, you take 10d6 falling dmg and make a poison save".

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    Or, leaving them there might have them jump out of the barrels, and wander into the human town nearby because they are starving, and eating all the local humans? Mightn't that be evil?

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    Wonder Woman gets shot with a high powered Rifle and spends a week in hospital. That hardly qualifies as "Almost as tough as Superman" who has withstood a nuclear bomb exploded 5 feet from his head. Green Lanterns have huge power holes, and if you want to see how well they do against Doomsday...

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    He intentionally killed Doomsday, with no idea that Doomsday could "self-res" or whatever he does. The quote was, I believe, "This monster ... must be ... stopped...permanently"

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    The expectation that all Paladins behave like Superman is why, in some games, Paladins suck to play. Superman is one character, with 1, and only 1 personality. Limiting your players to "Being Superman" is a poor take on gaming, imo. Not to mention the other issues. Name the other characters...

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    He also doesnt leave the truly dangerous ones alive. For Example: See Doomsday. Too dangerous to leave alive, and "killed" by Superman.

    No Second Edition Love?

    I hated 2E so much I immediately quit D&D for first Palladium RPG, then Rolemaster, and finally WoD. I never so much as looked at D&D again until WoTC bought T$R, as I already loved WoTC due to Magic: The Gathering, and had a lot of respect for them. They did just what I hoped and prayed they'd...

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    Superman is indestructible, and Super fast, with heightened senses, and x-ray vision, so he can afford to let the "Tadpoles" lie, and know instantly when they "reoffend" and stop them before harm comes to anyone, without any fear for his safety. I think you'll agree Paladins dont have this same...

    The "orc baby" paladin problem

    I choose to honor the human women and children(and men) who I will save by killing these "tadpoles" that look like crocodiles, and kill and eat humans, and regenerate, and only die by fire and acid. I honor them. I honor the fishermen who have been eaten already. I honor their wives. I honor...
