    No cable due to appartment fire.. firefly/enterprise/buffy premier online?

    Subject says it all. I missed all three season premiers and there's no word yet on when my cable will even be restored. Does anyone know where I can find these episodes online? :(

    The Inevitable New Buffy Episode Thread (Spoilers after Sept 24)

    I have had the worst fall viewing luck! :( There was a fire in my appartment building a couple weeks ago and the cable is still out. So far I've missed the season premier of Firefly, which I had been waiting for all year, the season premier of enterprirse, and i'll likely miss buffy and angel...

    Low magic and inherent armor class dodge bonuses

    Exactly. ;) So keep those +5 rings of protection in the closet and let your players use their wits. To top it off, ban all raising and resurrection spells. Then you'll have a setting worth playing in! :)

    Clerics as spontaneous casters

    I don't think moving to spontaneous is particularly unbalancing. Choosing between spontaneous or memorized casting really depends on how you think of your clerics. 1) Memorized. Each morning, the cleric must read through his prayer book and remind himself of the rituals necessary to call...

    Low magic and inherent armor class dodge bonuses

    No I still don't see this as a problem. The whole idea in low-fantasy, low-magic, gritty campaigns is that things should be hard and somewhat lethal. There's no reason that a 20th level fighter in one of these campaign types should beable to defeat a dragon. In fact, I think its better that high...

    Low magic and inherent armor class dodge bonuses

    I don't see a problem with one 20th level character always being able to hit another 20th level character. Keep in mind that hitpoints do not always represent damage, especially at higher levels. At that skill level, it would be a test of the greater warrior and his endurance.

    Non-spellcasting priests?

    lets give this a little kick start.. I thought it was a great idea, and I'd like to see it through to the end

    "I only allow Neutral Alignments for PCs"

    *wave* and for the record, Basilisk's definition of true neutral was right on. I have never subscribed to the idea that true neutrals try to balance good and evil. I have always seen the alignment as the best representation of pragmatism. 99% of people in any campaign world are true neutral.

    Too Much D&D

    I often find myself assigning alignments to movie characters as I watch them. When I realize I'm doing it, its already too late and I accept my geekiness and move on.

    Penumbra Fantasy Bestiary Requests

    Yep... and as far as lore goes, they can easily be used as abstract levels of information a PC or NPC might have about the beasty. It does not require an associated mechanic.

    $64CDN for Book of the Righteous?? Not in this lifetime...

    Actually thats not entirely accurate. I buy a lot of books because they seem interesting enough that they might be a fun read, not necessarily because I need it. I probably actually use about a quarter of the books that I own. As soon as a book becomes prohibitively expensive, it drops right off...

    $64CDN for Book of the Righteous?? Not in this lifetime...

    I just visited my local shop to have a look through book of the righteous and I was appaled at the price. $64CDN before tax, and thats not even marked up! There's no way! I recently picked up Monsternomicon, a $50 purchase. That was bad enough, but I'm enamored of the Iron Kingdoms setting to...

    "Going Down The Road To Hell!" Is Announced!

    12 characters of 20th level??? My god.. I can see each encounter taking several days, considering all the feats, spells, items, and options that will be available to so many high powered PCs. Doesn't seem doable unless you want to spend a year completing the module. :)

    Star Trek: Nemesis

    I'm hoping that having a non-trek standard director will make this a watchable movie. I have hated each and every TNG movie. They've been nothing more than really long episodes - and lame episodes at that. Bah.

    Looking for a good Mage Hunter Core Class

    That ranger variant doesn't fit the bill. A high will save is definitely a requirement for this class.

    FFG's Midnight setting

    Great art! As far as the setting itself goes, it really really really smells of LOTR. Did anyone else get this impression?
