I could have sworn I saw that he ran the show on level numero uno. My (somewhat foggy) memory is telling me it's in the old 2e Manual of the Planes or maybe that bloodstone pass adventure where the party galavants around the abyss. Unfortunately I don't own either anymore.

Your math's right. If you double the mass each dimension should be multiplied by the cube root of two. That does make the weapons a little short (and smaller weapons a little long. A small greatsword is 4 feet 9 inches long, Tiny is 3-10, Diminuitive is 3 feet.) It quickly get...

I had to vote "other" to give out some lovin' to Pazuzu... It's just so much fun to say! And if I recall correctly he either ruled the first layer of the Abyss or the skies over all the Abyss. That's prime real estate there.

I got mine this afternoon and there is so much to go through. I really sorta like the Craft Points but I don't like the need to take feats to make MW items or alchemy. I like the bloodlines as well but I'm not sure if the loss of 1-3 levels is worth it. (I think they might be overpowered)...

I'd have to say that the 2 Pit Fiend (EL 22?) and 6 Marilith (EL 21?) would make a nice encounter for a 15th level party. The demons are just powerful enough to challenge the devils, meaning that unless the party was stupid and alerted either side to their presence, they'd have enough time to...

Though Nightfall likes to insist that Orcus is in the Scarred Lands, I believe in this regard he might be a little lotus-addled. ;) Perhaps in the upcoming Edge of Infinity there will be some descriptions of the more notable fiends and angels in the scarred planes. Was that out loud? :eek...

I sorta like the ring of Complete Adventurer if we're putting in requests. Werner

Wonder if I'll get the last post? :D Oh, and Edge is out of edit now and it's probably in layout or somewhere along the way. Soon. Werner

I knew this look familiar. You're summing a bunch of odd numbers, so use the formula: sum (2n-1) [n=0] = n^2 as a base. Then, because of the progression of bonus spells for high abilities, you'll be adding powers of two. To translate from your original, Y = (Stat-10)/2; X = Lvl/2. Maybe...

I actually like the idea that you have here for the PrC wizard. Instead of Spellbook casting, giving the sorcerer access to spells that are in their spellbook for spontaneous casting. (as opposed to casting them like scrolls). Thus the caster is still limited to the casting rate of a sorcerer...

If you want to do this, I'd remove number 7 (I can agree with everything else, I like the magic item system the way it is but I see reasons why others don't) However, I've found in my games that there aren't any real throwaway abilities. Sure, some characters will choose a dump stat but will...

Except for that arcane spellcasters create heat when they cast spells, there aren't any real mechanical differences inherently between Scarred Lands classes and PHB classes. However, there are feats to represent different "flavor" aspects of the Scarred Lands. Sorcerers (really just PHB...

I don't have either MotP or DotF but Genesis is in the PsiHB. Gotta love abbreviations. Werner

I'm a little biased but I'll point out the Player's Guide series by Sword and Sorcery Studios. There are reviews out for most of them floating around here. They are ideal if you run a Scarred Lands game, but I think they serve a good resource for non-SL games. Some might argue me, but the...

"Buy the same, spend more money" I'm a pretty casual buyer. I've gotten one of each so far (1 starter, 1 booster and 1 of Dragoneye.) I've order a set of 4 & 4 at GameOutfitter and that will probably quench my thirst until the fiends come out. I mostly buy them for my kid, anyway. With...

Or maybe it's because that in 3.0, gnomes didn't even get the benefit of having a favored class, just a specialty. Or that looking at the Bard spell list one can find an awful lot of illusion spells. *shrugs* who knows?

The Players Guides series from S&SS handle this to a certain extent. They go through regional areas or political subgroups, describe them, and then go into what skills and feats are common to people from that area. IIRC, Kits filled two niches. It helped to define a role for a character and...

Nightfall, No problem, I just wanted to make sure that I didn't come off sounding official when I'm not. I'll save that for Andrew or perhaps the actual author who submitted that piece. (I really can't recall right now.) But I love this book (SotA) so I always try to be right in the mix to help...

One caveat, my contribution to this book was the History section, two prestige classes, and a little bit of miscellanea (spells, magic items, language...) so this isn't an official answer. It looks as if the Racial Hit Die was just left off for most of the subraces. Barring an official...

A few points: 1) Going over the thread again, my post stands out as one of the more snarky. I apologize for that and will retract at least the tone of the statement. (The example I still feel serves well to describe my point of view.) 2) I still strongly disagree with the thesis statement...
