    Knockback rules

    Why not make it a Fortitde Save. DC = Damage delt and you get a +4 to your roll for every size level difference, just like the grapple rules. If you make your save, you don't go anywhere. if you don't, you fly back a number of feet equal to the difference between your roll and the DC. Of...

    More Friendly Skill System

    I like this option, but most of my players are not all that creative when it comes to creating interesting backgrounds. Actualy, I thought I would alow this bonus for the first base class and first prestige class you take, but no others. (should have been in the original post)

    Magic Item Creation: Sharing the XP Burden

    Interesting approach. I think it could work. What you may want to do is require that each participant have at least one rank in spellcraft. This knowledge would be required to make the link in the item creation process

    Possible "rewards" for not having a talent for magic?

    Give everyone in the game an extra feat at first level. Then introduce a feat (talent) that can only be taken at first level that allows the person to learn magic. In this way, the people who don't take the use magic feat will have it to spend on whatever they want. For the person who actualy...

    More Friendly Skill System

    I've seen a few discussion threads about the amount of skill points that different classes get. Some people think that the fighter and sorcerer get to few skill points (wizard too in my opinion). Some have proposed adding 1 or 2 points to these classes, although I think this would in some ways...

    5 foot step and "Boots of Striding & Springing"

    Thats what I thought. In fact that's what I ruled in my game, but I told My players I would post on the forumn for confirmation, just to make them happy. Thanks for the confirmation...

    5 foot step and "Boots of Striding & Springing"

    The rules clearly allow for a 5' step durring your round, even if you are taking a full attack action. Is this 5' step in any way affected by the use of Boots of striding & springing or similar movement enhancement magic. (IE. does the 5' step become 10') Or, is the 5' step still a 5' step...

    Reach weapons, large creatures and 5 ft. steps

    I can't see the squezing into less space ever working, but... The creature giving cover to itself hwen your trying to attack into the square behind makes PERFECT sense. If the spear is so long that I can't attack the head of the horse from my position, but I can attack the rump, it is going to...

    Abusing Cloudkill

    Actualy the voltage delivered by a shocking grasp spell is likely much higher than that needed to run a hair dryer. The typical voltage of a static shock when you can hear it is often around 5000V and to see it at normal room illumination is typicaly around 10,000V. The real question that you...

    What do you think of this villian

    Looks Cool enough, if the party can get some info on him or get the drop on him then they stand a chance, but it will be tough... However, other than his alignment, what makes him an enemy? What are his goals, ambitions etc. How does he fit into the story. Lately I have created two different...

    Slavery [My player's stay out !]

    It all depends on the rights aforded to the slaves !*!*AND*!*! how well those rights are enforced. If slaves are given rights under the law, but they are not enforced, then the society is potential more evil than one where slaves ahve no rights at all. At least there are no illusions. IIRC...

    Your Game: Roleplay Heavy, or Combat Heavy

    Varies based on the number of players. Essentialy, the amount of Role-Play is inversley proportional to the the number of players. (ie. More players, less roleplay) It becomes harder to spend the individual time needed on some plots for each player, so those smaller plots get left off the...

    How much can you play without metagaming?

    I agree with Rackhirm, adventureers are larger than life heroes who are expected to rise above the commone man and be able to deal with the horrors of the wilderness. Such common things as knowing to use fire or acid on a troll would quite likey be known by the local farmers, so it would...

    Gold in Fantasy Worlds

    Rolemaster uses a non gold standard That I think worlks quite well. 1gp = 10sp = 100bp = 1000cp = 10,000tp = 100,000ip gp = gold sp = silver bp = bronze cp = copper tp = tin ip = iron they also have a mp (mithril) worth 100gp. It is usualy not common enough to be used as regular currencey...

    Do you have the stereotypical DnD "body type".

    You could say I'm a little on the big side of life. 6'6" 280 lbs. I'm a little out of shape and could stand to loose about 40 lbs. but over all I'm not in that bad of shape. Oh yeah, and lots of body hair... I like to tell people I'm the biggest geek you'll find in these parts... I haven't...

    Is this an evil act, or not?

    It certainly is't evil by any stretch of the situation. However, some would argue that it isn't nessecarily good either. Is it an act of mercy to kill them? Yes! I would say it is more of a Neutral Act. A good person would have tried to provide them with enough comfort so that they could die...
