... No? I'm not sure what your question is, exactly. :D

In fights, to compensate for the extra PCs, include lots of extra monsters. Do not make your few monsters stronger. Doing that results in the few monsters getting gang-tackled by the PCs, while more, weaker monsters means that the PCs have to spread their attention around, and thus each player...

The first (and, unforunately, so far only) Eberron adventure that I've run was similar to this. I worked up a set of pregen characters. They were, essentially, a squad of Cannith-provided warforged and their human commander / political officer / wizard.* We have a group of 7, so...

Damage from wizard-types is not the problem, though. Reducing damage done by wizards is just making the already-weakest aspect of being a wizard weaker, forcing them ever more into the waiting arms of battlefield control - which is where the wizard really, truly shines to begin with! This, I...

It also fits the rules when done this way, since you resolve AoOs before the action that provokes them. Before the character provoking stands up, they're prone. So you attack, get the prone bonuses, etc., and when your AoO is resolved, you resolve "Stand up from prone." Thus, even if you do...

Ah. No, actually, I haven't. I didn't realize you were referencing a specific ability, there. :D

1 AoO per provocation, and all movement counts as 1 provocation. Otherwise, go nuts - up to the limit of your available AoOs, of course. AoOs can, themselves, provoke AoOs. So, if you have two untrained fighters going at it, and one attempts a disarm (which provokes), the other can try to...

This, exactly. I mean, consider just this thread alone - we've got, in one "room," people who have been playing for multiple years across dozens of different systems in a variety of geographic locations. Previously, we might have chatted around the bar after a day at GenCon. Today, we chat daily.

So, is anybody at GenCon, and is FFG saying anything else about these games there? EDIT: Not that I'm all desperate for infor, or anything. I'm just ... a little desperate for info. :D

That's great and all, but it doesn't mean that your experience matches reality. Rules lawyers existed long before 3E was a twinkle in WotC's eyes. While you, personally, may not have seen any, that doesn't mean that they did not exist.

Jonath Cailan: As Keena and Paaq start to run forward, Jonath puts his hands out to stop them, one arm in front of Paaq, his shortbow extended in the other in front of Keena. "Hold!" He turns alternatively to Keena and Paaq, his face carrying a forced grin. Jonath speaks in a normal voice...

Given that we're discussing Pathfinder ... ... wht does that even mean?

For the spellbook part, check out Perram's Spellbook.

It is also, hands down, the absolute worst feat in existence. I mean, it's worse than Toughness. No, in my games (and in the games of all right-thinking folk!), you can flavor your spell effects however you want - just like you could in every previous edition. I mean, consider the spellcraft...

Hah. Hahah. Hahahahahahahhahahah. No.

Because, presumably, you have people playing both at your table and would like the players of the Fighter-types to have fun, too? Rather than just being forced into acting as second-stringers and meatshields to the "real movers and shakers"? Yeah, you know, I've always felt that anyone who...

I'm pretty sure you skip any undead you are not capable of turning when determining which you do turn. I'm looking for rules support now, though, and haven't found anything conclusive.

To continue El Mahdi's point, there's also the issue of sufficient returns. You run a business, and you have $100,000 to invest in something. You can invest it in something that, if your planning projections are correct, will make a 3% return.* Or, you can invest it in something that, if your...

By this logic, absolutely nothing is a trap, because even playing a one-armed, one-eyed, lamed kobold minion can result in a fun RPG session. While the scope creep in the definition of "trap" may make it slightly less useful for purposes of discussion, deciding instead that the word is...

Could this possibly fall under the various "Same Effect" rules on magic in the same place / on the same item?
