Hiya, Krusty! There were TWO of them?!?! :faints: Either way, that seems reasonable. Unless plans have changed, we know that the 4E druid pretty much has this distinction made for him, as they said they've focused the class around shapechanging. Beyond that, we know we have the barbarian in...

Ya know, I can't really think of any within the OGL frame. The inspiration for this is fairly clearly the varitey of 'per scene' or 'until the end of the scene' type powers from White Wolf's stuff, but the onky OGL thing that's even remotely close is Iron Heroes' token system, and even that's a...

Hello, Upper_Krust! Wow, more bad puns than I can shake a stick at in this post. I'm interested in the source of the animal/plant separation. Is there any specific mythical justification for the split? Most pantheons that I can think of have animals split among the various deities rather than...

It hasn't affected me. I don't know a single gamer that plans to stick with 3E.

Hmmmm, seems to me your best (perhaps only choice) is to jump in with the GSL, and use the smaller competitive pool to build your own reputation. From there, you either keep 'converting' to successive liscences as WotC continues to put out editions, or (if they terminate the liscence mid-edition...

Heya, Krusty! An empty box?* It's the myth behind it that's cool, and Persephone's is just as intriguing, IMO. Seasonal myths usually are. You're probably right about Achilles/Theseus. I just know that when I think of Greek heroes, it's Hercules, Perseus, Theseus, in that order. Achilles is...

Hiya, Krusty! No, I wouldn't expect Persephone to be very high on the list, either. I did say I'd put her at 36-37, lower than any of your other 'real' deities. Up until yesterday, I'd been under the impression that Pandora was nothing more than a supremely unlucky (that's probably not the...

Hiya, Krusty! I wouldn't be opposed to seeing some more immortals in the II entry, I don't think it would be a good idea to push out better known gods for them. This would be possible with more obscure religions, but the Greek one being so well known limits you somewhat, I think. Where would...

Scott, you suck.

Somehow, I though Shemmy was female. Maybe it's just her avatars.

DO IT, U_K!

How does this True20 screen compare to Black Industries' Warhammer 40K GM's screen?

Hi Krusty! You're right about the inclusion of heroes in the low thirtys being more satisfying, and sometimes I felt that the hero/quasi deity split was rather nitpicking it anyway. Well, with Hestia and Persphone added to what you posted, we have your 20 most interesting/popular gods, and the...

Hey, Krusty! Hmmm, well my 80% prediction was based on the proportion of gods, as they were traditionally envisioned, as opposed to heroes, which the entirety of your 'quasi-deity' tier consists of (honestly, I'd never seen these characters as anything more than epic heroes, but I suppose...

Well, those set ups seem a bit more workable (here, you have Hades, Poseidon, Hel, Ahriman, Vishnu, and Shiva all within GG range despite not being pantheon heads [arguable for some of them]). I could see a 48-50 working as well, or what have you. The numbers to need tweaking. And, while it's...

Hmmm, seems fine to me. I do think you're clinging a little too hard to your 'unofficial' split of the Immortal tier into God/Greater God sets. Even if you demote some of the weaker ones to demigod, there's still a vast crunch in a tiny 5 level space with a comparatively massive gap in the next...

Yes, GURPS 4E does rock - moreso than either 3E or 4E. Honestly, though, I'd say 3E is closer to GURPS. I've thought for a while now that 3E is really the closest thing to a classless system you can get without going fully classless, largely because of the multiclassing rules. 4E emphasizes...

Well, yes, it's obviously intended for you to focus, but you can't dump either, there aren't enough powers in the silo for that.

Well, aside from still having my doubts as to the Far Realm-Slaad connection (I just think the MM has a better candidate in the Farspawn), the rest of your ideas seem more-or-less solid. I would like to shift gears a bit though and ask if you've thought about your deific groupings in 4E. If I...

Better figure it out before your Advanced Player's Guide is due. ;) Also, I thought I'd re-ask, because my gut still bugs me: Is it intentional that Wraithstrike weapons get such a low enhancement bonus compared to other weapons of similar level?
