    hitpoints conversion in M&M? Use of Aberrant in an Fantasy game?

    In 1e, the rule is in the main book somewhere, but I don't have it handy. Try the index? I'm pretty sure it was around the section on damage saves and recovery in the combat chapter. In 2e, there are supposed to be hit point rules in the Mastermind's Manual, which I don't own yet, but I...

    [Sci Fi Channel] "Who Wants To Be A Superhero?"

    The problem here is that you're thinking of these people as actors. What they really are is people who WANT to be actors, so they try out for every reality show they can hit the audition for, they go for bit parts on TV, movies, and commercials, etc. So they end up listed in imdb, sure, but...

    10th level direct damage smackdown.

    What about warriors? I mean, a full-power-attacking fighter, specialized in a greatsword, will deal 2d6+28 damage every attack, without including crits. 2 attacks per round, 14400 rounds per day, average damage is, um, 1,008,000 damage per day. I'm sure someone can top that easily, probably...

    need as much DR as possible

    Adamantite Body + Improved DR, both from the Eberron campaign setting, for warforged. Soaking damage isn't really a survival strategy in D&D, though. It's an aid, at best. What's the best you can get from most sources, about DR 10 or 15? A power-attacking character can blow right through...

    Gaming in the Occident

    RPG.net feels pretty international to me. There's a reasonably-sized South American contingent there, and they mostly play the same games we do. I'm given to understand that there's a fair amount of LARPs played in scandanavia and Russia, and that it doesn't have quite the stigma it has in the...

    Not QUITE a Warmage- (de)Gimp my Gish!

    You don't need to be using a whacky weapon to do rediculous damage with Whirling Blade. You just need to power attack with a two-handed weapon, and possibly Wraithstrike (Complete Adventurer?), which makes your attacks ignore armor, natural armor, and shields. Raising your greatsword from 2d6...

    Your Favorite RPG Supplement, for any Game, Period

    Birthright from 2nd edition AD&D. The first game that changed the whole way I think about gaming. Build kingdoms! Lead armies! Run international cartels and religions! Cast spells on a national scale! Inherit the bloodlines of gods! It was so awesome it has really affected every game I've...

    Duelist is limited to 1 point of canny defense per class level. You can get into Duelist as early as 9th level, though, so taking an extra level of that shouldn't hurt. You need Dodge, Mobility, and Weapon Finesse for Duelist. As a human, that's your 1st, 1st, and 3rd-level feats. 6th and...

    Two-weapon fighting, haste, and a quarterstaff, then. :) Blast, we crossposted and you said no magic. Combat reflexes would work, actually, since all your opponent has to do is something stupid like attack unarmed. Movement and/or other opponents not required. The easiest way, then is...

    Rapid shot and haste would be the obvious way. If you have to ask how to do it, how did you do it originally?

    How do we know that is a sphere of annihilation?

    That's not a rule in 3e, at least for minor artifacts, which is what the sphere is classed as. The item listing has "Strong Transmutation" on purpose, you know.

    Bow Feats

    A 1d8 weapon sizes up to 2d6 (or 1d12). 1d10 normally goes up to 2d8.

    Video game influences on my D&D

    Yep. They're going to take away your favorite 3e books, too, you imaginative grognard, you. Matter of fact, have you checked your PHB lately? The fighter class? Gone. Bet you didn't even know.

    Trapfinding as a Feat

    Hey, that's really good. I was going to say it should be called Trap Sense, but that sounded familiar to me... turns out that's another ability altogether. But you could kind of merge them together. Maybe at 1st level they get Trap Sense +0, which let's you reflexively "search" for traps when...

    The file here titled "Legal Information" is the OGL that applies to the MSRD. You need a copy of that on your site, and update section 15 (the last section of the license) with your own copyright notice, like, "FusionBurner's Html MSRD, Copyright 2006 FusionBurner" at the end. Then you should...

    Just because someone else did it, doesn't mean it's correct. You can't do that under the OGL. Additionally, you need to include on there somewhere the OGL with an updated section 15 containing your copyright notice. Your "instructions" and "read_me" files don't fulfill the OGL terms...

    Epic Spell - Greater Miracle

    And trivially fixed: limit it to 9th level or lower spells, which is what Brain wanted anyway. :) More substantially, is it broken to allow a spellcaster to trade an epic spell for any nonepic spell? I don't really think so. Or if it is, then wish and miracle are bad, too. I posted the...
