It takes a considerably higher level of technology to harness photovoltaic energy than it does to produce electricity. The only reason solar energy is around today (and the reason it isn't more popular) is because we have the luxury of expending a lot of energy toward a lesser source of energy...

I think it's a bad idea. What will probably happen is every single sensible player will take the 2 extra feats, they will not really care about the adventurer schooling you're trying to convey with these bonuses, you will end up with problematic PCs who can qualify for things before they...

There is already a statistical opposite to the critical hit. On a 1, you miss. On a 20 you deal double damage and on a 1 you deal none. Simple and effective. Consider: If a 1st level commoner has a 5% chance to wound himself in a 6 second period spent with weapon in hand, then a vanilla fighter...

I'm running the adventure and the same thing happened, amazingly, to the same character: a warforged fighter. The quori used its sting three times and the warforged just had some bad luck rolling the saves. When I read the encounter I anticipated that one or two people would probably die. It's...

No. There are too dang many fire monsters in D&D already.

Unreasonably expensive for miniatures, no thank you.

Knights of the Dinner Table is not self-depreciating. But saying "aside from webcomics" is a pretty big disqualifier, most gamer humor is in webcomic format.

:mad: Yeah you better!

If you're going to give a dwarf a polymorphing rod with the stipulation that it only be used to transform into creatures approved by a council of dwarves, you may as well throw the damn thing in a volcano. I definitely agree that the DM's responsibility is to caution the player against what...

I saw this when it first aired and I loved it, partly because I have that hat. Some time after the episode, one of the writers (I want to say Tina Fey) was asked some questions about the skit, and said that the mistakes were carefully crafted in order to make the terminology more funny to...

I'd like to playtest. I'm right there with Resa, I got excited about the MLP game even though it was a joke. Generation 1 was my favorite show growing up, and I think the tone of the show influenced me a bit to become interested in RPGs. I think when most people think of My Little Pony they...

It's abridged. In Search of Adventure covers only the upper levels of the pyramid.

Derailing for a minute, there is no need to pin a plastic mini. Glue bonds to plastic very well, and in fact, putting a metal pin through the bond might actually weaken it.

According to Matt Sprange, because they gave Mongoose Publishing a bad name.

I did notice that this afternoon an angry torch-wielding mob descended on my home and burned all of my D&D books in a bonfire haunted by the exorcised ghosts of hell, but I didn't know why until now. Looks like the jig is up. Personally, I'm looking at getting into yoga next, I've heard Pat...

Vecna was statted as a demigod in the 2E Ravenloft Domains of Dread. As stats go they're very bland. Essentially he was given the maximum of everything, he does not have a spell list as he can cast any spell at will, he always acts twice and he always goes first.

Let me show you my pokemon.

Aha! After long months of waiting for errata I admit that I stopped checking, my bad.

While I don't feel compelled to make you change your character build, there are a couple of problems I think you should be aware of. One is that it has never been substantiated that the legion of sentinels spell does anything whatsoever, and trying to use it will almost certainly grind the game...

When I see words like "mint condition" used to describe D&D books I know someone is going to be very disappointed with the going price on their books. I have spent enough on D&D books to have bought at least one nice car. Now imagine that as I left the dealership with this car it had a head-on...
