Yep... and it was following that (iirc) that Dave began his campaign of slamming the NBC brass...

Rockwell Collins (http://www.rockwellcollins.com), following 9-11 had some layoffs of the factory floor and other positions. However, things are getting back to normal. Many of those let go are coming back and they are starting to hire a few people in information technologies and automation...

Simple and off the top of my head. Suppose you are the player at A, suppose that B is an ORC charging you. Suppose there is another one on the row, 10 squares below C. C is a target you need to hit with a ranged weapon. The target is 50 ft. away (if you cound all squares as 5 feet, even the...

Because the distance from the center of one square to the next along a diagonal is 1.414 (or approximately 1.5) times the distance from the center of one square to the next in the columns and rows. For example: B 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 C 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0...

If you have access to the old DRAGON magazines, go check out the article A PLETHORA OF PALADINS. The True Neutral guy was a force (of nature) to be reconned with... I believe the class name was Paramander (sp?) with an insane version known as Paramandyre (sp?).

And so far, only Kenzer has found this expense to be worth paying for.

Then a whole host of 'Holy Warriors' as a core class needs to be defined, wouldn't you say? At least that is how I am handling it in my games. Something like that, yes. Sounds good. I would like to point you to the UMBRAGIA boards here at ENWorld. I would specifically like your feedback on the...

I would just like to add to the pool of symnpathy. I do hope he finds gainful employment soon. But about burning bridges... I am not sure. Do you recall when David Letterman used to spout off on his network and about how incompotent they were? After all, he was famous for 'speaking his mind at...

Not wanting to start an argument, or hijack the thread... but I would like to know a couple of things: Why should the Paladin remains a LG only class? Certainly the Lord of Chaos or the Lords of Evil have thier own Holy Warriors do they not? How would opening the class up to other alignments...

My only problem is when you have that odd final move (for example, if diagonal ended on one round as 5 ft. do you start the next round as 5 ft. or 10 ft.?) In order to handle such situations, I have been allowing players to carry over no more than 1 movement point (2.5 feet) from one round to...

I would like to see (in the DMG) an optional Paladin-as-a-Prestige-Class treatment... same thing for Rangers and Barbarians.

OK... the system I use is a bit confusing the first time it is explained, so bear with me. First, get your movement score in feet: 30 ft. for example. Next, divide this by 5 to get squares per turn: 30/5 = 6 squares. Next, multiply this number by 2: 6x2 = 12. This is the number of movement...

The big one that I can recall was Thermos Vacuum Bottles which lost its name when the brand (Thermos) became synonymous with the product (Vacuum Bottles); others that are or were recently getting really close to that territory are: Kleenex Facial Tissue, Q-Tip Cotton Swabs, Xerox Copiers...

Fair enough. I will re-read the thread and see what I may be missing here. :)

For the record, I did not ask you to "be more polite" I asked you to explain where you were coming from. It has been wrong. I personally have not commented because of the fact (in my estimation) once things get that emotional, reason goes out the window. You appear to be rational in most...

It may be obvious, and I am just not getting it. But, after reading this post, I think I see where the confusion is coming from. Let us look at these statements individualy, and then as an argument (by argument, I am making a "logic" reference, not trying to state that we are arguing). The talk...

Two seperate issues: (1) Should AV be fired for producing this? and (2)Trying to control what is/is not published. (1) -- The idea that AV should or should not be fired has little to do with the issue at hand (is this book moral or immoral) and so, I consider this a Red Herring. However, as I...

Nither have I; I am sure they are out there someplace though. My point in listing them was to contrast the fact that there are many who object that do not reach that level that I would personally call "extreme."

OK... perhaps I missed it -- after all, I have skimmed some people's posts in the multi-threaded discussion that the BoEF has generated... but I do not recall seeing the Sigil claim that you should not be able to see the book. I have seen him state that (in his opinion) the book is immoral, and...

To many people, whether they be Bible-thumping-in-your-face-you-are-doomed-to-hell extremists, or simply fairly-conservative-personal-choice-I-will-not-consume-material-I-find-objectionable, or even liberal-but-feel-that-the-objectification-of-women-is-bad types can make such a statement. It is...
