I go this way as well. (PHB glossary for modifier) Rules Compendium pg 32 under "Effects of Concealment" says 'If the attacker hits, the defender must make a miss chance percentile roll to avoid being struck.' By implication: If you are confirming a critical, you have already struck your...

In the SRD, HypertextSRD, & DMG, there are tables listing the properties available to melee and ranged weapons. Ghost Touch is only available in the melee weapons table. Even if text trumps table, there is not a conflict between the two (unless errata somewhere changes that). Thus I conclude...

I don't know the feat but..... If it was meant for melee weapons only that should be noted somewhere in the description. However the Ghost touch ability can only be applied to melee weapons (not sure what happens if you throw a ghost touch dagger though). If you have the ability and you...

The Dragon Compendium Vol I (2005) had a range of pole-arms including the Lucern Hammer, from Dragon somewhere in the 330-335 range. Some associated feats are also included. For the OP I would not bet against some house rules either.

I'd actually argue that in this case, the small sized creature staying in the occupied square is a specific case that overrides the general rule of not being able to end your turn in an occupied square (not that I've found a specific rule on that). I'd note that forcing them out means an AoO...

The last line would be my basis for making the decision that arcane strike is a no go in AMF, no access to you "power source" a-la a dead battery

So true. You have to hit them repeatedly with a clue-by-four for them to notice an important clue, but they will remember some colour rag a random encounter grunt had 5 sessions ago and believe it is the key to running the ultimate McGuffin BBEG stopper. Yet as a player I KNOW that the DM puts...

While not a direct prophecy website, TV Tropes and Idioms can be useful for examples: Fate And Prophecy Tropes - Television Tropes & Idioms Have a wander through, as they provide sources you may have access to. Try Nostradamus and see of you can find some of his prophecies.

Caster v caster would be the way I'd go: greater mental control/force of personality wins to command the undead. Yes, similar to opposed diplomacy. BTW, at the risk of giving the DM ideas, the two of you should have a chat about these things, so there are no surprises at the table that take a...

As you said the Staff entry it says that if better you could use your own ability scores for DCs. This is an exception to the general rule (specific staff ruling over the general spell completion item rules). It is not an example of what everything else uses. Look at it this way: despite the...

First thought is an opposed CHA check to see which command undead is obeyed. Vaguely follows the Charm Person and Command Undead forcing someone to do what they normally wouldn't. I'm sure this is mentioned somewhere, but I would not know where to look (it is not in the CU or CP spell...

Making it usable by non-casters would take it into the realms of Wondrous Item, not wand/eternal wand.

I accept that the link IS two way as each side gets something. However, everything that is provided via the link is ONE way (I liken it to a symbiotic relationship, one provides something the other lacks). The only exception to this is the empathic communication, and that has a definition in...

I'm mostly happy with this part, but are there familiars or animal companions anywhere can casts spells? In the 1st paragraph you state that no familiar CAN cast spells so it isn't necessary for RAW to point out it is not a two way street. Why do you not use the same argument in the quoted...

Not an Eberron person, but I would say that enchantment on a weapon affect only that weapon unless it explicedly states otherwise (such as the bow/crossbow & arrow/bolt descriptions). So wpn finesse only with the one holding the finesse ability, and extra D6's only for the weapon that has Deadly...

Being a :devil: the answer is neither, it can't run through devils with a lance. Seriously, what are you trying to accomplish (only being slightly < :devil:)? One seems more defensive in nature than the other (don't use knight, crusader, or the complete books) so option 2 is a bad attacker and...

Actually, it is only implied that the half price is because it is used (I didn't find a "because the items are used" statement anywhere). Page 112 of the PHB: Selling Loot, the very first sentence is SELLING LOOT "In general, a character can sell something for half its listed price." It then...

I would tend to rule based on the premise: Extra attacks based from outside sources don't stack: thus haste, a speed weapon, snake swiftness don't stack. Extra attacks based on internal sources: high BAB, flurry of blows, 2-wpn fighting etc can stack with one outside source for an extra attack...

You could use possession by a malevolent force, like The Land's Ravers in the Thomas Covenant books. They possessed animals, swarms of inserts & people during the course of the books.
