I'd reverse the 2 charge and 1 charge powers. I'd price it pretty cheaply, myself. I'd start around 3500g and move up to 4000-5000g if it proves too powerful.

Einstein had been working on those 3 problems for years. He had been conducting thought experiments that would test the assumptions of Newtonian physics for most of his life prior to that year. He was known to be doing that since his high-school days. So I think we could say that he 'took 20' on...

Frankly, I wouldn't use jingo as the 'trade language' name for any group that's mostly American or who speak English, as English uses the term jingoism and jingoistic to describe a person or a group being nationalist in nature. It's one of those random bad names you soemtimes get. It would make...

Not quite.. Rincewind had an epic spell slot.. so he had an int of at least 19. However, that epic spell required sacrificing all of his other spell slots each day he had prepared the epic one in order to lower the DC required to research it. You can have a 18th level wizard with a base Int of...

I'd give it to the guy who has Fly cast on him. The main reason for giving the attack bonus is that it's easier for the attacker to hit vital, often unprotected sections of the body (aka the head) and it's slightly harder for the opponent to defend, if the attacker is sufficiently higher than...

I don't think all of them are.. look at Shojo. He appeared to at least have the best interests of the city at heart, despite his tendency to use deception to achieve that end. The rest of the nobles simply appear to be power-hungry. Plus, Hinjo's a noble, and he's a frikkin' paladin!

Another thing to consider is having 'twisted' versions of the normal races too; don't limit yourself to only normal races. Life in near-total or total darkness is a pretty big evolutionary pressure in the real-world, and creatures that are cave dwellers look kinda creepy to us. If we find...

BESM d20 campaign or Mechwarrior/BTech rules base, and I'd SO totally play that. That just sounds fun.

Might I suggest even going so far as to use an alter self to look like your normal self post-disguise at all times? That way, even if the enemy pops true seeing, they see only the non-magical disguise and must then use perception to penetrate it...

If the amounts are fixed, and not class-specific, then it makes no difference if you go a technical specialist route at level 1 or after level 5, and therefore make multiclassing REALLY penalty-free after level 1. Yes. It has been mentioned that it is possible. Doubtful, because it appears...

Nifft, I'm not quite sure how you're going about the entire reserved feats thing... Are you trying to produce uber-powerful one-shot abilities at the expense of the warlock's general tendency to have fairly OK abilities that are always active or trying to emulate the reserve feats use of not...

I've been thinking about something similar for a one-shot or something... But mine went further. Namely, it's an all-cat campaign. Awakened cat wizard with a cat familiar. Awakened cat druid with a tiger animal companion... awakened cat fighter/barbarian type, and a awakened cat rogue-type...

Haven't you heard of Pokethulhu? It's an actual RPG... and free too. Pokethulhu 3rd ed. Hehe.. gotta love weird humor RPGs...

I would argue that TWF in Star Wars, is similar to how TWF would be in our world; a skill occasionally picked up by skilled fighters wishing to increase attack speed/strength at the expense of accuracy and/or defense. Thus, it is a skill primarily associated with Jedi/Sith and 'heroic'-class...

From some things that have been mentioned by the designers, most 'mook' type enemies would have thresholds higher than their total HP. So, if you manage to do enough damage to send a mook down a step on the condition track, they're 1-hit killed. Not even knocked out, for the most part.. but flat...

I just hope it's not Elan screaming "XYYYKONNNNNNNNN!!!!"

Actually, the Jedi-laden one has a higher max velocity, due to the Force push the Jedi uses to charge the rancor. Non-intuitive, but it's the case. I think Sith-laden might have lower max velocity than un-Jedi-laden though.

I believe Pratchett's pretty much said the Discworld RPG that's out there will be the ONLY Discworld RPG that's official, save perhaps editions updated to the newer versions of GURPS. That said, GURPS books have long been used for setting mining purposes by D&D players haven't had any intention...

The vermin swarm druid stuff sounds perfect for NE druid BBEGs too. A evil druid with the right druid-y style PrCs and City-Shape would be wonderfully creepy beyond all reason. The ranger variants make for an excellent city-based ranger too, easily in the master-PI style. Overall, I love the...

Kae: Discworld's already a licensed RPG. It's already in print, even. It's just not d20. It's GURPS. And... AFAIK, Pratchett is not likely to authorize a d20 version of the Discworld as a setting. So, as much as you might like it, it's not likely at all to happen. However, it's got most of...
