The other reason for leaving them out is that if you wish to publish material for the game under the licensing, you cannot use those creatures either (if I remember correctly). So you want to publish a d20 compatible world, you may not print stats for the the Evil Mind Flayer overlords and so...

The armour as DR "debate" doesn't ever seem to make everyone happy. Does it reduce damage? Does it protect you? What about firearms? etc. The following are my person observations/opinions ... 1. Leave it Alone Opinion Heavier armours were developed to counter damage, but they usually removed...

There is a random method in Unearthed Arcana that isn't too bad. I normally use it for PCs when I want to get a quick background and develop a character based on a single roll, however I once sat down and randomly determined each level/culture the character had been affected by. I ended up with...

It is a very interesting idea and there are a couple of systems out there that employ something similar but there are some dice rolls invovled. I think "The Riddle of Steel" uses something similar. One thing you might want to think about is not just "countered by" but also "partially stopped...

IMC Druids gain a domain every 5 levels from a limited list (elemental, plant, animal, sun, ...). First one available at 5th level. They only gain 1 bonus spell total, but have multiple domains to select from. The game reasons are due to storyline in my world. In balancing this kind of thing...

The spiral/ring binder thing was a concept as much as a suggestion. There must be a way to do what I suggested. Doesn't have to be binders or spirals. The electronic PDF method idea is good, however I like physical entities so my preference is for the binder concept. I can probably generaet a...

Going over the battle, I noticed the following things ... Mistakes that I thought were made: 1. Revivify will not save a beheaded person. 2. Fortunate Fate is a disgustingly overpowered spell - it combines Contingency with Heal. Since it is a single 7th level Divine spell, it allows multiple...

Well I think it should be either ring binder or spiral bound. And everything should be on a seperate page - seperate for each race, seperate for each class - etc. That way when there are erratta, you just remove the offending page and slide in the replacement. That ... I would pay for ...

If you jump ship to Mac and you perchance obtain office you can use Virtual PC. Now of course I tested an old version of CC (6.01) and it worked fine under that. The biggest "trick" is only give the Virutal PC half the maximum memory it can have. Apart from that Dundjini looks like it will get...

There was a thread somewhere that dealth with ideas for this many months ago. I have no search facility I cannot help you out there. However my own opinions on the matter are: 1. Morrowind has a rich history and setting - these alone can see you through, without having to convert anything. 2...

The reserve points idea can be found in Unearthed Arcana along with many other things that might beef up the "Warrior" party. Do not forget that the Paladin can lay on hands - so a priority for the party is to get his Charisma as high as possible. Of course it isn't a cleric's power but its...

I'd take the golem idea however what I would do is give the Brain Psion or Sorcerer levels. I would then take the Shield Guardian and make it the brain's "body". If he was a Psion I would make it a variation that is crystalline or something similar. Now that's what I would do. Of course if I...

I think one of the main issues with giving him more BAB is power attack. His increasing Strength will compensate for any loss of to hit bonuses and thus as a War Hulk gets BAB, they can transfer the lot of it into Power Attack and generate monstrous damage. Add in his ability to just "sweep"...

Yes you are correct ... I was seeing both dice as solitary entities. My bad. D

Damned Swashbuckler!! Bard I tell you ... Baaaard!! Of course I love my Bard/Fighter/Pirate ... he's one of my all time favourite characters. But that's just me. D

Well to be honest ... TWF gives you an extra attack at your best attack IF you make a Full Attack. I would point out that this is a Full Attack Option that is not the same as TWF thus you cannot burn that extra attack. D

I remember the old Companion Set having rules on ruling a nation. And you would get XP from your day to day running of the nation. So while the ruler sits on his throne, etc, he would improve (albeit slower than normal), and now and then there would be something that only the hero could face...

What you are attempting to do here is very similar to the way Rolemaster operates. You have a total "attack" value, say +150. You then split this into multiple attacks and also defence (if I remember correctly). However you are not forced to make it an even split, you can decide how much goes...

I like the flavour text. I have similar groups in my homebrew that destroy evidence of certain historical events and current events throughout the world. However they have many factions, because they do also edit/replace history books in libraries and if anyone uncovers a cache of old tomes...

Well after reading everyone's opinions on the Scout update, here are mine :) 1. I disagree with the addition of the Disable Device ability as a class skill. Why? Because a Scout is a ... well a scout. They're supposed to go ahead of the party, checking out the terrain, making notes of enemy...
