We had a lot of fun with it. One arcanist, one rogue... and three clerics. (No, we didn't know the module ahead of time.) Suffice to say, it wasn't that bad of a module for our gang. One of the clerics has the feat that can maximize all healing done until the end of his next round -- three...

I would use the stormtroopers for Jaffa. Keep in mind, the main characters are very high level at this point. The Jaffa -- especially back in the old days -- were VERY efficient at mowing down civilians and other SG-teams. It was only SG-1 that was immune to incoming fire. :) I wouldn't...

Druid. Honestly, who expects the cat to murder someone?

If I had a gold piece for every time that spell saved one of my weak-minded fighter-type characters... :)

I'm in the same boat, with one exception -- little Arya, who is growing up into a VERY interesting character. I just hope she gets a few more chapters in Dragons, because she got a short stack in Crows, that's for sure.

This, by the way, is why massed Mindflayers have a disproportionately low CR. Massed mind blasts? Read the sig. So to recap, sports fans... We've got Varo, off doing... something. Dar running for his life. One lone sorceress and a healer lost in the nastiest dungeon I've ever seen and...

I'll admit it -- this one made me chuckle.

Unless you've got an issue with it, Merkuri, that's my new Sig. :)

That was great.

It might still leave the demons, but it would be one HELL (pardon the pun) of a turn-around in the fight. I don't care how tough those undead actually are, most of them would get popped even by the half-damage on a successful save. And I don't know if Healers get Mass Heal then or not. I...

We've got the opposite problem. I'm in a group where EVERYONE wanted to be the cleric. So we diversified and made a whole party of clerics (though to be fair, the cleric of Olidhammara is multi-classed with rogue). It works amazingly well, though undead encounters are pretty much crossed off...

Actually, there's a reason this has the "Fiction" tag on it. It's not a re-telling from a group, it is a wholly invented story from LB. His third such story, actually. And he keeps getting better. (Great work, as always, LB. Loved the brutalization of the ghouls.) By the way, LB, when you...

I'm not disputing your general theory -- they may be going for an "activation" effect. Still, In Kensei's case... He fought like a guerilla warrior. He used distraction tactics to take foes by surprise and ambush bandits. In the material that we saw, he never even drew the "Godsend" sword...

And that, gentlemen, is what seperates Varo and Dar from the rest of the supplemental characters. They've got... STYLE. :)

Engineers tend to be way too analytical and pay attention to the evidence, rather than emotional pleas. They actually pay attention to the days and days of physical evidence and trivial stuff like DNA. There is also a tendency for engineers to be unswayed by fellow jurors in divisive cases...

I'm with cheshire_grin on this one. I'm a bit confused by competent mages. :) Seriously, though, it's great to see one in the story hour doing what wizards do best. Poor Dar is getting pounded like an anvil lately. Must be the scales needing balance -- if a wizard lives, the fighter types...

I agree about the comparison to Jake 2.0 -- it was inevitable. Despite that fact, I think it's distinct enough to stand on it's own. Chuck is definitely not going to be a secret agent any time soon. He's more like the random plot generator than an actual capable person. (Though I loved that...

I'm running two different groups through Savage Tide right now. One group is just starting "The Sea Wyvern's Wake". The other has just landed on the Isle of Dread. It's a little bit non-standard because one group is running RAW 3.5 and the other is an AE conversion of the adventure path. (A...

The selection of "Prismatic Spray" on that list worries me a great deal. Thanks for the laugh!

Just one thing to note from me (on the new version)... Produce Flame at will is not exactly a minor spell. The closest comparison to these feats are the Reserve Spell Feats from Complete Mage. The fire reserve feat gives the ability to do up to 9d6 fire damage (with a saved Meteor Swarm) as...
