Thanks, I just couldn't find that in the SRD - and the bit about a ghoul possibly using a magic item to up a stat is a good point!

Where does it say how to figure out the DC for a monster's special ability? For example: A ghoul is 2 HD. If I make one with 3HD, how do I tell if the DC increases? And as an aside, does the "DC is Charismas-based" mean 1) that the DC fluctuates with the ghoul's Charisma or 2) that the...

Thanks for the help. That is interesting that material components don't increase the xp cost (I would not have realized that on my own :) ).

SRD Is cost the "Raw Materials Cost" or the "Item Cost" (Market value) of the item? The former is half the latter.

So a monk with a 50ft movement rate gets a +8 on jump checks. Does this apply even to standing jumps (where they are not moving at all)? Seem kind of wonky.

"Fires of War", the new M&M supplement from BlackWyrm Games ( http://www.blackwyrm.com/ ) was not at the show due to printer failure. Serenity had 500 hardbacks and were counting on softcovers to fill orders beyond that. Only a handful of said softcovers arrived from this same printer however.

I've heard that she's heading to a film festival in Scotland instead of Indy GenCon. :(

Oops, right you are! I did a quick scan of the thread and got all bleary-eyed from the Traveller talk before I saw the stuff about the RPG acutally coming out. Sorry for the waste of bandwidth (and the further waste while apologizing for the original waste :) ).

As an aside, there is a Serenity RPG (licensed from the film) coming out at GEN CON. There's some talk (and some photos) of it here: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=11195 I must say, the ship maps looks darn shiny. ;)

Well that certainly answers it. Thanks.

If one does an overrun as part of a charge, can they then attack after completing the overrun? It is clear that they can if the victim steps aside, but not so clear if the victim does not. In other words, does "as part of a charge" mean that the overrun takes place as the movement part, or as...

Wouldn't it have been in Complete Warrior? If the book it would have been in has been published, and it isn't in there, then it's pretty clear that it's not part of 3.5.

Oh come on, we've all been in campaigns where the GM plays favorites: George: "Here you go Ani, another 'role-playing' bonus for your heartfelt interactions with Padme..." Anikin: "I R0xOR!"

This record is mainly meant just so the players and I can remember what happened in what order. It's not really designed as interesting reading for those outside the campaign, but you are welcome to browse at your liesure. http://www.ghoulgamers.com/viewtopic.php?t=2280 We're about a third of...

Ah ok, if the FAQ is talking about a 5ft step between multiple shots, then that's ok. I had in my head that the archer had already stepped before starting his attack.

Thanks for the FAQ research, that helps a lot. The bit quoted above, hovever, still confuses me. How could the archer take a 5ft step between the fighter's readied action and the archer finishing his shot? :confused:

A dwarf with an axe is in melee with a bow wielding orc. The dwarf readies to attack (or step and attack) if the orc tries to shoot the bow. The orc then takes a 5ft step away and tries to shoot his bow. This triggers the dwarf's readied action, so he steps forward and attacks the orc...

In the first couple campaigns, they did dominate, absolutely. There was nothing they could not do better than everyone else if they wanted to. In a more recent campaign we did a class re-balance: http://home.insightbb.com/~ki.ryn/Morningstar/Class_Balance.htm Main thing we did was only give...

If the PC wants a Fire Ball to burn enemy equipment, say that is fine. Then have the next encounter be a couple of enemy NPCs throwing fireballs at the party. :] Point being, not even Disintegrate and Destruction destroy attendend items. It's not likely that Fireballs are meant too.

Do any of the official rules or supplements have a Shadow Domain? I have a shadow god in my campaign and "Darkness" isn't quite right. Seems like a good candidate for a domain but I haven't found anything in the books I have.
