About the Class ... The Evangelist (IMO) is meant to be for those games that are centred around religous parties heading out to convert the heathens. Thus it would be like the movie "The Mission" where the priest is an evangelist, defending by some warrior types, and they're off to the...

From the SRD I can only find the following: 1. You are unconscious = helpless + knocked out 2. helpless = Dex 0, can be coup d'graced 3. helpless = no evasion or improved evasion That's all. So RAW give the unconscious monk a save with Dex 0 and evasion doesn't help. This feels wrong to me...

Well for starters ... IMHO ... killing him after the contract was fulfilled was a Lawful Evil act. Although not specified exactly, there is an understanding that the zombie-guy want to "live happily ever after" on the beach. The group agreed, and then the Exalted character looked for that loop...

Legildur: just follow my player's tactics. It's not expensive, and you've got arrows to burn. She had Rapid Shot pretty early on, and Boots of Speed as well. D

IMC we don't worry too much about arrows vs arrows. The main reason is that dedicated archers will ensure they have plenty of stock. They use combinations of: Quivers of Ehlonna (and no you can't hold more than 60 arrows IMO since it specifically mentions sizes for the other compartments, thus...

I think its obviously aimed at Rangers, Druids, etc. I would probably change caster level 1 with divine caster level 1. However I don't think it is that useful. The text implies that the spell must be successful "in addition to the spell's normal effect". If the saving throw is made then it...

I've only played in Talislanta once, never ran a game, and I loved it. I loved the flavour/atmosphere and even made my own Deck for my spell caster. The concern I have about d20 Talislanta is the way they handle the races in the game. Additionally Talislanta wasn't class/level based but...

Correct me if I am wrong, however the damage save system and the max skill ranks system are very similar (if not identical) to two optional rules in Unearthed Arcana correct? D

Low Charisma has come up in many of my campaigns. the most common we have had were: - person is gorgeous, based on first looks they're model material, however ask them a question and the drooling idiot is revealed (lack of personality version) - person is grizzly, but somehow commands respect...

It would seem that being the Sage involves the inhalation of some of the purest crack out there. No matter who takes up the position they will be "smoking crack". D

Is the fluff of the book easily adapted to another system? For example pure d20? Or are there too many "new" mechanics? For example the skills thing you mentioned could be similar to the Unearthed Arcana skill options. D

The 95lb elf sounds a bit off anyway. If you want the realistic/scientific thing you need to note that muscle is dense, and as such 1lb of muscle is about 6lbs of fat. So Bruce Lee was probably heavier than he looked. He was essentially all muscle and sinew, very little fat. So he would weigh...

What I'm posting here is not a "I'm better than you" thing. In fact I made many of the mistakes I see you making when I started DMing more than 20 years ago. However I'm also blunt and like to "get the information out". The first thing that hit me from your post is that you tried to FORCE them...

Well I think that whoever is doing the work should be looking at languages like Prolog. At university I studied AI, and one of the units was natural language processing (take a sentence and spit out noun/verb/adverb/adjective/etc). Prolog is a great language to handle something like this...

Excellent problem solved ... hope your baby does well :) D

Hmm freeware ... let me see ... try http://www.picasa.com/index.php Picasa is by google so it should be okay. D

I don't think a non-lethal attack can transmit the disease. Under some section the DMG (no book) it states that the attack must do damage for its special effects to also work. So for example someone with DR 5/- who takes 4 points of damage from a Wyvern's Tail does not need to save against the...

Always found the "scribble over it with dry erase marker" and rub off has been effective and safest with most surfaces even a battlemat. D

It all depends on the software you have available. Photoshop for example comes with a product called ImageReady. What ImageReady does is give you multiple setting outputs for images (for example various JPG resolutions) and saves them for the web. You can tell it to limit file size to the...

The argument has come full circle. KarinsDad is repeating things that I have presented already, and RuminDange is doing his thing as he did when I presented them. It is obvious no one is going to accept one opinion or the other until someone at WOTC says what is meant by the text. So how does...
