One approach would be to simply "flavor-text" the bull rush rules. All you're really doing is moving a PC, and exactly how you do it isn't the important part. There is a feat some monsters have called awesome blow - which knocks a creature back when you hit it with a slam (see the Remorhaz, I...

I'm pretty sure that these all came out of one of the Books of Eldritch Might, by Monte Cook. I'm not sure which, as I used the Complete BoEM, which is all of them combined and updated to 3.5. I especially like Teleport Redirect. I do like the 4E idea of just limiting teleport.

This is correct - all of this will be available for free if you bought the game when it first came out. I'm looking forward to trying the game once more once that happens!

Does that mean until we let you out of your box, your answer might be "yes" or "no?" :D

I ran a scenario like this - what I did was to base the opposing creatures on similar monsters in the MM or elsewhere, while keeping the PC stats consistent. For example, for a pair of housecats, I used the 1E stats for Vulture Lions (from Dieties and Demigods) and converted them to 3E stats...

I think that over time, as she gets more comfortable with the people in the group, she'll open up to the point where she can do more roleplaying. It sounds like she knows what's going on in her head, and she's got a plan to fix it, so it should work. In your position, I'd try to give her very...

I'm in the exact same boat, and I've been anticipating this for the past year or so. I think I will probably be making an entire Player's Book for my next campaign. Its not going to be easy, but it will be interesting.

I'm not sure that supports your point; my experience with Books-a-Million is that they get their D&D product when someone sells it off at rock-bottom prices because it isn't moving - in many cases that someone is WoTC. If they've got a lot of something than it generally means it wasn't selling...

Peter Adkison promised at the Ennies that Gencon would be back next year. Well, I guess technically he promised that he'd see us all "back here" again next year, so maybe he just planning on buying all the attendees bus tickets...

You too, huh? I haven't bought the rules yet, but I found in that game that True20 seemed to solve most of my 3.5 issues - now I need to see whether it can accomodate some of my specific needs...

Pretty darn free to make changes. On the other hand, if the PC's decided to knock off a major empire and take over, it would not be easy, and they'd be extremely likely to fail. Also, the gods in my world are fairly unassailable. I keep a continuing history - that's one of the really cool...

Another couple like this, and I'll be asking, "how's the vacation from the thread working out for ya?" Keep it civil, folks, and don't make it personal. Those are simple rules to live by. Kid Charlemagne, ENWorld Mod

Very soon, IIRC. This is a very fun RPG, and well worth getting. Its a little more adult and "shades of grey" than most RPG's. I'm also really looking forward to Fallout 3. And I'm not really that big of an RPG fan.

The village on the shores of U-Ren didn’t have a name. It was nestled between steep, rocky cliffs covered in deep tropical forest. Various flying beasts circled and roamed overhead, some lizard-like birds with scales instead of feathers, some bird-like lizards with feathers instead of scales...

The Pirate King's Day of Reckoning As run by Barsoomcore, based on a chance comment by Hypersmurf, using a game by Steve Kenson, derived from a system written by Wizards of the Coast, evolved from a game created by Gary Gygax, which in turn tracks its roots to war games played by the likes of...

yeah, this qualifies as politics (obviously) so I'm going to close it!

See? Aren't you glad I got you to step in for that picture with Chris now?

It generally depends - some directors are also writers, some are not. Del Toro wrote Pan's Labyrinth (Oscar nominated), and both Hellboy movies (heck, looks like he's written almost everything he's directed). Same with Jackson - he's written or co-written everything he's done. Since it worked...

I think Halivar's got it - this thought process grew up in some players and DM's during 3E, and I'd guess that it was due to the codification of the mechanics. I don't think it was entirely new - its a variation on the "munchkin" phenomenon of 1E/2E, where the player would take advantage of...

Corjay, you get a lot further along in gaining acceptance for your points if you weren't be so antagonistic towards those who disagree with you. Tone it down. Everyone - please do not make discussions personal. Also, its very bad form to report someone and then post that you have done so, or...
