    Climbing Stairs

    Hm. There isn't anything to suggest that climbing stairs is hampering. The only thing I see is that in combat, some people will have the advantage of being on a higher ground. You could also rule that you need to make balance checks when you get hit, so not to fall down the stairs. Slim

    Dancing Weapons

    The only unclear point to me is: on the round you release the weapon, does it make an immediate attack, or does its first attack happen on the following round, at your initiative count? Slim

    Turn Resistance

    Simple, you treat your 6HD skeleton as a 10HD undead. Both for Maximum HD turned and Turning damage. For your turning attempt, that Skeleton has 10HD. Slim

    Threatened squares and weapons in hand

    Well, that's what THEY told me when I asked if I could do it... Well, some of those patrons will be wielding broken beer bottles. They'll probably get a free stab. As for the others, they'll simply have to wait their turn in the initiative count to pound you... ;) Or, if they have a habit of...

    Threatened squares and weapons in hand

    It's not that a projectile weapon is not threatening, it's more about how AoO's work. A fighter is constantly trying to hit the wizard during his round. Only a few (depending on BAB) attacks really have a chance of connecting. If the wizard takes his attention off the fighter (say, by casting a...

    Significant problems posting

    I'm having trouble right now... It's not uncommon for a submitted reply to take ages before going through... Oh well, a little patience never hurt anyone. Slim (this post will probably go thru like butter) aha! I'm getting an error message at least: Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30...

    Threatened squares and weapons in hand

    I posted something similar a while back (Bow with spiked gauntlets) and everyone told me I couldn't do it. Even sent an email to the Sage / Customer Service, and they told me I couldn't. How I saw it possible: a) Character shoots with his bow b) After shooting with his bow, the character gets...

    Tumbling while Prone...

    The rules, as they are presented, do not give the option, when prone, of taking other movement actions (I don't mean move-equivalent actions) than getting up. It would seem logical that it is possible to move while "prone" (crouching). IMO, movement should be reduced by half (as if the...

    Should spell saving throws be in the hands of the caster?

    Ok Save at +4 Mage at +4 for int and +3 for spell level The DC the target would have to beat is 17. So the target needs a 13 to save. So the mage would need a 7 to succeed. With a save DC of 10 + bonus (14), the mage would indeed need a 7 to break through (d20 + 4 + 3) (Sorry if I laid out...

    A dream about the boards

    Well, last night, I think I realized that I might be coming here a little much. I had a dream about these boards. Not a big dream, not a complicated dream. I simply dreamt that for some obscure reason, the Rules forum was now above the General Discussion forum, since the last post made was in...

    Nets and Ettercaps

    Some additions: 2) The net can also be escaped by making an Escape Artist check (DC 20) or a Strength check (DC 25). Both are full-round actions. Slashing weapons must be used to cut the net. I'm not sure about the fact that the character caught in the net must use small weapons (ie light?)...

    Does Acid Fog Stack?

    Although that theory could be valid with Acid Fogs, it wouldn't hold with, say, Wall of Fire (which I put as an example in the email I sent to them), since the Wall of Fire damages opponents that are not stuck in it (ie like 2 WAlls of Fire, parallel, 10' distant, both shooting fire towards...

    Spellsheets

    Try the electronics aids section of ENWorld. Lotsa good stuff there. Of course, the best spellsheets I've seen were in Excel (and I love Excel). Slim

    [Pseudo-poll]/[Study] Female Fantasy Names

    I thought I had answered this a few days ago, but it seems the posts never got thru... Her full name was Rapine Abraxas, and she was a halfling Sor1/Rog5 before she got paralysed and coup de grace'd by ghasts. The poor girl didn't make a stinking fortitude save of her very short career. Bien...

    AD&D and the people who still play it

    In no ways was my intention to belittle the players of older versions of the game. I was just surprised to see a 2nd ed PHB :). The reason I was surprised is that of all the players I know, we all switched pretty rapidly (I admit that I don't know THAT many gamers) when 3.0 came out. Thanks for...
