Including your fellow adventurers, presumably? Then again, looks like that probably doesn't really matter. Anything epic that hits you is most likely dealing enough damange that your chance to fall in the range of 1-9hp may be rather low.

I've got the book packed away somewhere. I believe I lost the starchart before doing so, unless it inadvertantly got packed away with the later spacemaster books instead. It was one of the first things I got my hands on, so helped fire the imagination and hooked me into RPGs. Took me forever...

Found my way back here after drifting for a few years myself. I have now caught up, so volunteer to be the mid-year bump in a feeble hope to resuscitate such an interesting and entertaining story.

So, ScruBu, the hive mind of swarming intelligent bubbles that like to keep shiny things clean? Or Brut and Secret, the mystifyingly named male and female personas of unscenting? Maybe instead of those, Chanel the essence of good smells? Moving away from my late night lame brained comical...

Yes thank you Freyar for figuring it out. With the numbers he was throwing around I knew Janx was working along some plan, but I wasn't seeing it. Unfortunately, being at least the part time bean-counter here in the office it's going to dig at me until we have matching numbers. Looking...

Don't forget bodily orientation! You teleport to the exact opposite side of your world - you arrive completely upside down with regard to everybody and fall literally headfirst to the floor. You teleport from the equator to the north pole while facing north - you arrive on your back.

You are ultimately correct that my final result is wrong, Janx. I also should have also removed the zero button possibility, so the final answer should have been 22. But go ahead, show me either the 25 or 32 (depending on which way you want to read the ^ function) hand positions where you are...

Been literally decades since I had to figure out a problem like this one. I think the easiest way to attack and explain it is as "all possibilities - the undesirable ones". Presuming I understand the conditions correctly: 2^^5 (i.e. 32) is all possible combination with five buttons (each...

All the previous posts are correct. But there is also no reason to not use your idea, with one slight modification - roll a d4 and ignore/reroll if it comes up a one.

Me too, I'm afraid. I had convinced myself that I had become strong, since I refused to get into 4E. Too many 3.5E and for that matter probably several 3E books stacked up still to crack open. This, of course, exposes that all as a blantant self denying lie. Oh, the humanity!!!!

From the Green Ronin site it looks like there is a separate campaign guide coming out that will address that concern, Crothian. Thanks for the heads-up. I had missed any announcement of this even being on the table. I'd be interested to see your comparison to the Game of Thrones D20 book from...

Good grief you young'uns! Why has nobody thought of Mystara/Known World yet (OD&D)? I haven't gone 4E so I don't know all of the specifics, but if it supposed to includes "anything for anybody" as somebody mentions, I know that that world was certainly starting to feel like it as the Voyage of...

Dang it, there goes the itch for a fight. Forgot where I was and was unfarily expecting the worst. My apologies, sir. Thank you for the further info, Psion. My wallet, however, will likely curse your name since you have now raised this item back onto my purchasing radar.

Wow. Just... wow. Call out the guy for not shooting a bulls-eye, when the entire discussion had veered away from the target completely. Certainly my contribution was at least in the realm of "using traveller for other space settings", as opposed to, say, asking for the source on news of a...

I'm not familiar with Mongoose's version, but earlier versions of traveller were never really a toolbox of generic ideas. Rather, the setting and rules went hand in hand. I think you would find that FTL travel (jumping 1-6 parsecs using LOTS of fuel, trip taking a week with no communication to...

Dang! I didn't realize this was the condensed version. I bet the four hour explanation of Alphonion polymorphic-alternate-realitives-and-perferated-discontinuous-nexuses was completely riveting. Shame we can't get the unabridged version. :heh: Alas, I am sure it would be over my head...

Does the damage reduction in PHB II in some places seem backwards or of limited use to anybody else? I understand the basic concept that the item after the slash represents an inherent (pseudo-historical) weakness, so that silver for lycanthropes, cold iron for fey, (relatively) overpowering...

Ooooh, sounds like a certain pending sibling reunion coudl be fraught with land mines. At least in my mind the Sovereign Host and Silver Flame have always been only loosely aligned on the same side. Sort of a "enemy of my enemy is my friend" type arrangement. I don't know if Faiths of Eberron...

Drat, I evidently lost my first attempt at this..... You've ratcheted up my interest even more with your reply. By the time I had finished the first post I honestly expected a cast of 6-8 players. You just dripped vivid imagery with the changeling and attendant in scene 1 I couldn't tell who...

Ah, veeeerrrrryyy nice! The text is thick, meaty even. Made the bulk of it feel very noir-ish to me. Other stories are too breezy and end up feeling more like fluff because of it. Your prose makes it seem more serious by default - and the copious, tight, descriptive details in there! I have...
