Merci mon Tabarnack ! :D

I have a few rules that came up IMC: 1- The Earthquake spell in the PHB p. 225: does it automatically pin a creature when in an underground setting ? What can the creature do to un-pin itself ? What about a colossal creature ? Is the spell shapable i.e. your friends aren't affected even in the...

Kudos Billy. Myself (as you know), I have a 14 yo daughter and 13 yo son. She reads a lot but isn't interested at all by it. My son is interested, but doesn't like reading that much. I got him a nice simple roleplaying game (ultra simple rules) that he could try with his buddies, but can't get...

Thanks Pbartender. Your diatribe was quite interesting and fun to read. Actually, it sums up pretty much how I feel about Sci-Fi shows. Most of it is possible, *IF* we don't look at it with our 21st century knowledge. For example, let's say a dude in the 30's did a sci-fi movie in which one of...

The player should indeed create a new character of the same level and enter the tomb. Some have mentioned true resurrection as a mean to survive, well having personally played the adventure, those won't help you out in many instances. Sometimes, something happens and your character is out out...

Do you multiply both effects by 1.5, or just the newly added one ? Could someone do a write-up of the calculations ?

Thanks guys ! Yeah, they really nerfed the epic feat in complete arcane, but I completely understand the rationale. Previously, with 3 epic feats a caster could cast 2 spells per round all the time. Now, well he needs 9 feats.

Even though he can't actually use it, can the sorceror take the Quicken Spell feat in order to eventually meet the prerequisites for the epic feat Automatic Quicken Spell ?

Well, someone emailed custserv and they said yes, but I CALLED custserv, and explained in detail why there is a point of contention, and they said no... With all the debates that we had on this question, and the information above, I'd say no. ... BUT, IMC I houseruled it to yes, because quite...

Thanks for the thread Yig. ...I'm his DM. It has escaped me that the Orb spells are not actually rays.

I thought that bucklers are made of wood and thus cannot be made with mithral. A masterwork buckler works just as well though... everyone IMC has one. Coupled with a +5 defending dagger, the mage can get a +11 to AC purty quick...

Oh, the humanity. ;)

I made one, which is attached to this post. Hope you like it ! 3.5 DMscreen

Sure. No problem. Frankly, I find this whole thing close to a non-issue. My hobby is completely unaffected by this story. Now, there are some that take offense when the hobby is but slightly associated with a heinous crime. Personally, it makes me smirk when it happens, and I move on. Long...

Ah. The quoting game. Can I play too ? You see ? Exactly what I said. On this we can agree.

Except that no-one said that D&D made him do it, but that his OBSESSION with D&D *might* have made him do it. Replace D&D with, say, carebears. Instead of slash wounds, the 3 victims have carebears stuffed down their throats. Then a detective dude comes in and says "The murder investigation is...

Bingo. Stats from 3-18 used to have a meaning in D&D (you would do a Str check on a d20 for example, and had to roll under your Str). With the new stat system, they serve absolutely no purpose. You have a 4 in Str ? That's +4 to hit and damage (+6 dmg with two handed weapons). I hate it when...

OK, let's take a good loooong look at what I actually wrote: His fascination with the game could have triggered his hacking spree. Meaning, some psychosis was just waiting for anything to trigger it, and something was the focus for it (Teletubbies, FPS, Mel Gibson, whatever). It's possible...

Some weapons simply have no scabbards. You walk around with it in your hand. Spiked chain, greataxe, all polearms... maybe the two-bladed sword is one of them. That is, until you get your hands on a glove of storing.

Complete story here: http://www.kyw1060.com/news_story_detail.cfm?newsitemid=44981 It's possible. I mean, it's possible this guy's murder spree was triggered by his fascination with D&D. Wouldn't mean D&D is responsible though.
