Sadly no. Our only 'caster' is the fochluouchenouousthaoust Bard.. so, little bit of bard, little bit of druid, lots of support, and not much else. That an a Cohort healer with no crafting skills.

Thanks for the replies, but it has to be one of the 'official' WotC books. For the money, since I'm going to be playing a warlock with fell flight, Boots of Strinding and Springing seem to be the best option (cheapest cost with the least amount of extra crap I won't be using), unless there's...

Other than Boots of Striding and Springing (and Boots of the Unending Journey), is there a magic item or armor/clothing enhancement that gives a constant enhancement bonus to movement? Thanks.

Historically, there are many places around the world where both men and women were topless (such as ancient Egypt) and/or wore translucent garments. I wouldn't have any objections to pictures of adventurers from Mulhorand (in FR) being dressed in typical ancient Egyptian styles of clothing, as...

Drow came first. They were already established in GH and FR. And, I knew they were the Shadow Elves, but this is a thread about halflings after all and I didn't want to derail it too much. ;)

Mystara. That setting was my favorite, hands down. They also had an interesting 'evil' subterranian elf race that wasn't Drow.

Because barkskin stacks with armor. Duh. ;)

I don't think the pictures look like dreadlocks, honestly. It looks more like braids to me. And, as has been pointed out, even Tolkien halflings were closer to 4 feet tall. They were half the height of one of the old human races that were about 8' tall (name escapes me), which is why they...

Hewards Handy Haversack is great for a low str character. And, you're also forgetting in point buy, a halfling ends up with a net of 2 points if they go for a starting 'Str:8, Dex:16' over a human. They're still coming out ahead on points. Also, the MIC armor ability of "Easy Travel" lets a...

What? you mean yours *isn't* you? I thought Piratecat was a, well, pirate cat. And Nifft was a Penguin.. Now you're saying people *don't* use avatars that aren't them because they find a picture they like somewhere and make an avatar from it? I'm shocked. (Whatever your is, actually... I...

Nope. This was mentioned as a placeholder long before the FRCS cover was announced.

And, regardless of the cover's look, it's been pointed out in past threads that it's just a placeholder anyway. So, that's another strike against this poor poll.

The ST:TOS Klingon Empire was really modelled after Communist USSR. Only in TNG did they start with this 'warrior and honor' stuff. The TOS Klingons were much more interesting, honestly. Star Fleet Universe has kept Klingons modelled after TOS, and its so much better. Frankly, I don't think...

Hmm. Do we really need two polls about 'cheesecake' art and 4e?

Great. When I'm playing "Mt. Everest: The Climbing", I'll make sure my character hires enough shirpas for the party. Likewise, when I'm playing "Cortez: Exploration for El Dorado", I'll make sure my PC hires sailors. However, when I'm playing D&D, I'd like to stay somewhat close to the D&D...

Might want to qualify that some, because that's really an overgeneralization there. I've never been alienated by 'cheesecake art', and as others have said, women they know haven't been either. So, while it may alienate 'some' women gamers, unlike your statement, it doesn't alienate 'all'...

I can see your point. But, even with resource management such as Vancian, high level wizards (and clerics/druids) still seem to be supermen (and women) of the D&D universe. I think my favorite system for mages was Earthdawn out of all the list. A mage had a bunch of spells, but only a few...

Ohh, I can't believe I forgot Shadowrun and Deadlands... And I had Talaslanta and Torg too, but we never played them. I made characters for them though. And, while my post wasn't directed toward you, Danny, (since spinachcat was the one claiming those who didn't like it hadn't played mages...

And d6s. Three types of HD.

Vancian Casting is annoying and I'm glad to see it gone. Oh, and for the record, I've played 'wizards' in Earthdawn, M:TA, GURPS, Arcana Evolved, True20, WFRP, Ars Magica, Conan, Iron Heroes, Secret of Zir'An, Mutants and Masterminds, and probably a couple other systems that escape my mind at...
