    WotC release schedule thru 2005

    Looks like a great year for my wallet! :D That's bad for WotC. Nothing looks that interesting to me. I may pick something up, you never know. -Swiftbrook

    Do you game in Greyhawk?

    I do. I really only have two customizations. 1) I put back into Greyhawk what was taken out to make it 'generic', such as using St. Cutberth from the LGG not the PHB. 2) I've cut down on what magic players can make and buy. Greyhawk has always been a treasure rich world. If the player can...

    D&D 4E DnD 4E DOA?

    I've seen many threads popping up recently about DnD 4E this or 4E that. I'm starting to wonder if WotC is starting to run out of material for 3.5e and spreading the seeds of 4E. Frankly, I'm happy with 3.5 and will not be jumping on the 4E bandwagon any time soon .... if ever. When WotC when...

    Core concept or rule that just bugs you beyond your ability to put up with it?

    Silence Please Silence. That bugs me to no end. In 3e/3.5e Silence became an illusion spell. Ya right. It became a glamer which can not create any physical effect, but silence can cause a physicall effect. Somewhere I have a page or two write up on the argument as to why Silence should not...

    I'm taking away a cleric's Medium and Heavy Armor. What to give back?

    IMO removing Heavy Armor Prof. bring the cleric more in line, balance wise, with the other classes. I see the cleric as the most powerful character class. Adding one of the three item you mentioned would be a fair exchange for medium armor prof. I've learned that medium armor proficience...

    Core Books only or Everything?

    I use the core books plus a few other material. Generally, a few pages of house rules, an article or two from Dragon Magazine, and material from the "complete" series. I guess I just blan and traditional. -Swiftbrook

    Armor Optimization Feats

    It does. (I hate typos). The title of the last feat should have been (and now is) Greater Medium Armor Optimization. It grants a +1 AC bonus. -Swiftbrook

    Armor Optimization Feats

    It takes two feats to get both the +1 AC and +1 max dex bonuses. I don't thinks that's overpowered. -Swiftbrook

    Armor Optimization Feats

    I like the Heavy Armor Optimization and Greater Heavy Armor Optimization feats from Races of Stone. So I started looking for similar feats for light and medium armor. Most of the feats I found were of the +1 AC, -1 armor check penalty variety. I wasn’t quite satisfied with those so this is...

    I got Races of the Wild, you got the questions

    Races of Stone had Heavy Armor Optimization and Greater Heavy Armor Optimization feats. Any feats like that in there for sheilds, light or medium armor? -Swiftbrook

    Why no index is new WotC books? *Update: Received "official" answer... kinda...*

    I don't think this has been mentioned....A one page index means one less page of content. It has been stated that the WotC books have a good TOC. With a good TOC, I think I'd prefer one more page of content. Of course, both the index and the extra content would be nice :cool: . -Swiftbrook

    CAdv on DriveThru - One small question

    I believe it's more of a 'hack' than a 'trick'. It's not something that they want to publish. I don't like DRM and haven't purchased any DRM products. -Swiftbrook

    DeathWatch: Why is it evil?

    Off Topic --- Is the reverse true? Is tapping into a good power a good act in and of itself, no matter the effect or reason? I'm thinking about (slowly opening a can of worms ) healing spells. Healing someone, no matter the reason, IMO is a good act -- you're helping them feel better. If...

    Complete Adventurer (merged)

    Unless you have a Huge Sun Blade. I would rule that the Huge Sun Blade (bastard sword) can be wielded as a Large weapon. -Swiftbrook

    HR: Combat Expertise ... -1 TH = +2 AC

    This question/poll is based on a thread I can't find any more. Basically, the thread asked what are your top three house rules. One interesting item that came up conserned Combat Expertise. One opinion that was expressed was that since power attack is 2-1, Combat Expertise should be 2-1 also...
