    The more I read about D&D 3.5. the more...

    You are quite right that it is only a monster, but unfortunately, it is the ONLY information that we have on changes to monster - and it seems like a big change - so is this the biggest change or a representative change???? That is the question. If it is the biggest, sure there will be some...

    The more I read about D&D 3.5. the more...

    I think that people are missing the complainers point. Very few have stated that they won't switch. What they are asking for is a unbiased, realistic description of the scope of the changes. Going from 2e to 3e - every one safely made the assumption that 2e was going by the wayside. With 3e...

    Re: Re: Re: Re: The more I read about D&D 3.5. the more... But are they the extreme or the norm? Even you admit that you are not sure - and given that, all of the doubters questions are valid - and should be addresed. If they are the norm than I would suggest that it was not the wisest...

    [OT] Naming a child Arwen

    I am curious what the overall thoughts of the board is on this. The situation is as follows: My wife and I are expecting Child Number 3 (don't know sex yet). My son is named Aiden and my daughter is Afton - so we would like to keep the A name thing going if possible. So, if she is a girl, I...

    Re: Re: Re: Re: The more I read about D&D 3.5. the more... Which is why people are concerned - if a respected 3rd party publisher is taking a wait and see approach to releasing new content, what does that say about the stuff that is already out there???? Based off of the news today, we know...

    Does your Spouse/Significant other game with you?

    Not yet, but she wants to - I have bought the WotC Started kit to teach her the game...... Now all we have to do is find the time.

    Bear's Enduracne???

    Small quibble, this is not renaming the Endurance Feat, but rather renaming the Spell Endurance......

    Is the FiendFolio goint to be 3.5 compatible???

    Given the fact that based off of the information released up to now, it appears that the changes in the Revised books is going to be larger* than we originally anticipated. (*and this makes the assumption that the actual release follows thhis trend) Therefore, this then begs the question of...

    Who does Steve Jackson Think He's Kidding???

    Actually, with the exception of the GURPS sourcebooks, I have found ALL SJG to be overpriced. For Example: Illuminati was 35$ And all you got was basically 2 decks of cards and 1 counter sheet of money. Its expansion was $15 for a grand total of about 50 cards. AS mentioned above the...

    New Haste - Does it Fix Your Concerns?

    I will certainly grant you the Divine Favor, but the Regenerate X don't mimic the Fast Healing - since you have to cast the Spell BEFORE taking damage (so it is at best a lame version of the feat) The Monk special ability is not a feat - so I really do not see the comparison. And forgive my...

    IS Gary Gygax's World Builder Hardcover any good?

    I have to say that I was very underwhelmed by this book. I went in to buy it on Sunday, but decieded to flip through it before purchasing and ended up leaving it on the shelf. The first chapter was all about arms and armour - and I found myself thinking while this is interesting, there is...

    Druid PRC Shifter

    The shifter PrC is all about flexability - but you give up power to do it. However, certain character concepts work pretty well with it. For example, I have built a monk/fighter/druid that is going into Shifter (next level). Imagine being able to shift into a Hill or Stone Giant and use...

    [OT] I hate car dealerships...

    Please don't believe this - their is ALWAYS haggling - even at no haggling dealers. (they call it price matching or a good customer discount or something like this - but it really is haggling) Further, those companies that advertise no haggling will typically charge more for a car and offer...

    [OT] I hate car dealerships...

    The biggest thing with dealerships is that you have to be willing to walk away. If you tell them something and they choose to ignore it - simly tell them that the conversation is over and start to walk away. Generally, this brings them to reality. If they ignore the warning I walk. That...

    New Haste - Does it Fix Your Concerns?

    But on the flip side, it makes one of thier feats a viable choice. After all, how many spells currently function as a feat???

    PDF Vs. Print [Slight Rant]

    Re: Re: PDF Vs. Print [Slight Rant] Actually, I do not necessarily think that it is resistance. You are completely disregarding the convienince factor assosciated with Print products vs. PDFs. This is not even going into the "thud" factor assosciated with print. A professionally bound print...

    Which rules are 'flavour' rules?

    Not that I agree with this, but at a minimum, I would require the Still Spell Feat and then not bump up the Spell Level. A wizard simply has to pay SOME cost to cast wearing armor.

    RPGing and Alcohol.

    The problem becomes when one person imbides to much and becomes a detriment to others enjoyment. I have been in sessions where one individual gets drunk and begins to 1) Make bad decisions that affect the group 2) Become antagonistic to others players - (i.e. calling them sissies because...
