When we first got our own apartments in college we were rather rude. There were a few sessions where we (the players) showed up drunk while the DM was not. This was usually a great sign that we should quit playing. There were even a few sessions where we showed up considerably worse than...

Where abouts in Minnesota? I attend UMNTC although we regretfully seem to have disbanded as people graduate and go onto graduate programs/real life.

I think he means that it is a tough class. No weaknesses. I like it. I don't think it steps on any toes but I don't think it will work that great in a group for the simple reason that it has few weaknesses.

I find that I leave it up to the player and react accordingly. There are some players that like to talk it out and others that are uncomfortable doing so. I don't want to make an umbrella rule that applies to everyone when everyone is different. The result, then, is that the player with a...

Have you tried ebay?

In most cities there are thrift stores that end up buying all the office tables/chairs/desks/whatever of businesses. I've seen selections that cover all different sizes, almost all of which were under $100. Which city are you in?

You could make it so that non-lethal damage (subdual) doesn't stack. That is, they must deal non-lethal damage greater than your WP in a single hit. This would represent people being nocked out without making it as lethal. I think d20Modern does something along these lines.

I think it would be powerful but not nearly as overpowering as some have mentioned. If you made it so that the metamagic feat that allowed you to change energy types allowed the sorcerer to change any energy type I don't think it would be too bad. But then I have always seen the sorc as less...

This seems to work quite well, but there are a few holes. First and foremost is that this causes AC to increase linearly when under the normal rules it does not. This, however, is not that important. Certain classes are aided more than others. The barbarian will be aided more than the monk...

Players are always able to take 10 on the Jump check unless some threat is immediate. Olympic jumpers are not under some immediate threat, and thus would be taking 10. If your players are rolling and coming up with a 1, it represents that something strange happened to them. They tripped, were...

I have long been interested in IK as well, although I don't own any of the books. Would some IK fans be willing to talk more about the problems as Moogle mentioned?

So that's my plan. I know some others have tried to do similar in the past and any input would be helpful. I am looking for advice on both the materials and what to put on it. So far I have decided that I am going to use 4 panels horizontally oriented and I want the XP table on it, everything...

I've often though that for those who employ Hindrances to give bonus feats a penalty of poor eyesight would be excellent. Everything has 20% concealment except for when you are wearing your glasses. Glasses should probably cost around 100 gp, break under certain situation (long falling...

Two 20's followed by a successful hit is a max-damage critical hit. It is rare enough that it is special but not so powerful (ala the insta-kill) that it creates problems. The first hit on the dragon isn't going to bring it down, but it will give the group some great momentum.

I think this will not only be an ambitious undertaking, but a hugely ambitious undertaking. While certain spells probably are better than others (MM) I don't think they are twice as good. Moreover buffing just got a whole lot easier. When the cleric can get twice as many buff spells off in...

What are their BAB and saves?

I think this same thing was posted a few months back with similar contentlessness and a similar response.

Now, I never like the money reason in regards to D&D. I understand that it is expensive and that many people have obligations to where their money has to go first, but it really isn't that much. I grew up barely in middle class and my folks would have been able to afford something like this no...

I think the old school DMG had suggestions on money changers and gem dealers where they charged 10% the total cost. So if you have 1000 gp and you purchase a 1000 gp gem with it, when you travel to town and want to convert that back into cash you only get 900. I like that because the gem...

So although Ghost Step is indeed vulnerable to any method that causes Invisibility to be countered, it still seems superiour to Ki Dodge. Is this the consensus? As an aside, I don't necessarily think that it is _bad_ that the 2nd level ability is better than the 6th, I am just wondering how...
