    Miniature Scales??

    As an aside; If you are looking for 25mm minis look at the LotR minis. They are smaller than the 28-30mm companies like Citadel and Reaper have gone to.

    Great books for young people?

    Are you insane? Atlas Shrugged is 1,100 pages, tiny type, of philosophical mumbo jumbo. The Fountainhead, maybe even Lord of the Rings and Lord of the Flies, these are books you read in your late teens/early 20's (depending on the person) when a young adult is beginning to first develop their...

    Info on the USSR needed for my setting...

    For a present/future campaign in russia, why aren't you using the Spyraft rules? Who uses a Flaming Holy Avenger +3 in 2010? If you want stuff set in the past, look for AEG's 7th sea book on Ussura. It has some good info on mideval/renassance russia. You could put in a few minuites to change...

    Do you use psionics?

    I would love to have intergrated Psionics much more into my campaign, but I am running RttToEE so my hands are kinda tied unless I wanna do massive re-writes. I don't. I might have other nations be more psi-heavy, and slowly intergrate later. 'Flavor', whether to much, to little, to...

    Chicago Gameday - 11/09/02 (now including the Castle Brawl photos link!)

    Here's a good reason: Why don't I play the Dwarf Fighter/Barbarian I played in your Of Sound Mind game last time? Used a big axe, psychoticly attacks undead spiders, you know. That way I don't have to paint another fig :D Sleep. Tell me about it. Just did a turnaround now off to take a 4...

    Intimidate, was I wrong?

    Good answers here so far :D If he wants something more flexible he should try Diplomacy. A roll of 30 would have made the goblin at least Indifferent, a 35 would have made him Friendly.

    Rant: Flavor restrictions

    Gives 'Tiger Claw Attack!' a whole new meaning............

    Feats for bards...

    Extra Music: Useless. You will already have 10 uses a day, how much do you need? Lingering Song: Useless. Your songs already last 5 rounds, how long do battles usually last? Less than that. Disguise Song or whatever, rocks. Leadership rocks, very powerfull for classes with a high...

    Who would you like to draw your character?

    Dave Sim. With a background by Gerhard, of course.

    Character Backgrounds

    I start the campaign with a 30 point buy, but I give out points based on how good the writeups are. Most players are 32 point build, ive had one or two 33 points. I give them a few weeks after playing to write it up. You usually don't get a real 'feel' for a character till you played it a few...

    Is Drew Carey the DM of Whose Line is it Anyway?

    Since WLiiA is really a front for a CIA brainwashing programme, he's really more of a Game Control ALA Spycraft.

    The Best Magic (and stuff) System of them All!

    Gotta be d10 Legend of the Five Rings. You learn a base spell then can do basically whatever you want to it, with specific target Number increments. Stuff not listed, the GM makes up on the fly, but the rules cover a good number of options. TN's go down as you grow familiar with the spell and...

    Book of Vile Darkness: Are you going to buy?

    Depends if it's good or not. I'm thinking no since my group digs more on mid-to-high-fantasy as opposed to dark. Maybe though, since it IS Monte and his stuff is always top-notch. I'll have to see what kind of reviews it gets from non-biased readers. All in all, there are other things i'd...

    Are Buff Spells Overpowered?

    Re: Buffs It is an exclusive skill. PHB pg. 59, on the chart is has an x, which states "You can't buy this skill because it is exclusive to another class". If you read Cosmopolitan you will notice that it states "Choose one non-exclusive skill...". PC's can't use Cosmopolitan to gain UMD...

    The most POWERFUL classic monsters! (Read intro before voting!!!)

    Dragons all the way because they can compete with any group on any level. They can beat ass when it comes down to it, but why bother when you can plot and manipulate for centuries at a time? REAL dragons don't use their AWESOME diplomacy and resources to get a pesky Paladin dis-honored and...

    Four arms. Four swords. How many times can I hit you?

    What would those feats do on a Worm that Walks ? :D

    Most likable PrC

    He asked what you liked, not to hear your bitch-ing. On boards that are less civilized they call what you did 'thread crapping'. Most of the really fun ones have been mentioned, Alienist, Arcane Trickster, etc. I like ALL the Ninja PrCs, from Dragon mag and others. Also the Commander, from...
