    Actually, I was thinking Orlando Bloom as Haley. Girly, always ends up shooting a bow...

    Falling Damage and Stoneskin

    I don't have a page number handy, but I'm 90% sure that Falling Damage is not reduced by DR. Why? Dunno. Someone with the time: check the dmg?

    3.5 Fans - Wassup!?!?!

    I'm currently running Shackled City (3.5 + house rules). I don't have enough of AoW to run... :/ I intend to absorb some rules from Pathfinder into my houserules.

    Fixing Toughness

    IMC, Toughness has been house ruled to +1hp/lvl (per instance of taking it) since 4/17/2002. I chuckled when I saw the Complete Warrior's improved toughness. Frickin' WotC! I don't have an "Improved Toughness" feat available at this time.

    I think we're done with 4E

    3e would welcome you home, you cheating bastage! (heehee) Earthdawn is a fun game. You should take it down off the shelf, dust it off and learn the system.

    Smaug? Really? He got one-shotted... by an NPC!!!

    Gestalt CR?

    That was kind of my point (I think I lost in it somewhere in the writing and rewriting of that post... I blame fatigue). CR doesn't really mean squat at that level. But a level 21 PC is supposedly CR 21... it just doesn't work out that way though.

    World of Warcraft Setting

    You have an awesome point there. I try to run every campaign that has established "canon" like that.

    DMs - how often do you get nervous that a big encounter will be a TPK?

    Sure they dropped to "-10"... but they don't know how much (if any) of that was subdual. I don't share that kind of info.... until its truely relevant. Not all of my players have figured this out... but I almost always deal at least 20% subdual... just in case. Sometimes this is enough to...

    Who actually USES alignment languages? How?

    I think we used alignment languages for about 2.5 sessions... And when I say "used" I mean wrote down on our character sheets and had no idea wtf it meant to speak "C/G"...

    DMs - how often do you get nervous that a big encounter will be a TPK?

    I think I saw one down at Comic Con one year. I think the guy had it made. I've been meaning to have half a dozen made up to give out to my new group-mates. I don't understand this. Defeat means whatever the DM wants it to mean. NPCs don't have to kill dropped PCs. Especially since rescue...

    DMs - how often do you get nervous that a big encounter will be a TPK?

    Nervous? Why? Let the dice fall where they may! Crit happens!! I cackle when a PC dies. I grin like the cheshire cat if I pull off a TPK. My players are good, if things are looking bad... they get the F out of there... or aim to die like heroes. More often than not, they pull it off. I...

    Gestalt CR?

    CR (iirc, I rarely use it as anything more than a crude measuring stick) is based on the notion that CR X is a suitable challenge for four level X PCs. There is no way a Monk | Fighter 21 can really expect to put up a challenge for four level 21 PCs (unless of course the M|F is totally...

    My Starcraft setting using SWSE as basis

    One thing to keep in mind is that the three way balance in SC is based heavily on unit expense and build time. For example: Protoss units are pound for pound more powerful than either Zerg or Terran but are either more expensive to build and/or take longer to create. When I finally getting...

    My Starcraft setting using SWSE as basis

    How I might do it. Terran Units ~ Marine: Soldier with appropriate prof in Gauss Rifle & Heavy Armor. Firebat: Soldier with appropriate prof in Flame-throwers & Medium Armor. Medic: Tech Specialist make it to SWSE edition? Ghost: PrC. Typically psionically active Soldiers with a couple...

    My Starcraft setting using SWSE as basis

    SC's Space Marines are known Gauss Rifles and heavy (almost Powered) armor. Ghosts use big f'n rifles. Would seem odd to make them pay for thier schtick. Now a Space Marine that want's to use the Ghost's rifle...

    My Starcraft setting using SWSE as basis

    I've been toying with the idea of Starcraftd20 for quite sometime... I'll take a look at your links later and get back to you. For now... bump!
