    A workable fantasy economy?

    Post deleted -- Apologies folks, just trying to be funny.

    Wild Shape

    So I guess I mean "monster feats" after all -- feats like Multiattack, etc., the feats in the back of the Monster Manual that monsters have but players don't seem to have access to. I've never played a druid -- can you tell? So, when a druid (3.5 or Pathfinder) wild shapes into something that...

    Wild Shape

    Sorry, that's what I meant. I call them "monster feats" 'cause they're in the Monster Manual.

    Wild Shape

    Huh. So no monster feats?

    Wild Shape

    0.) Any good summaries of exactly how the new wild shape works, or Pathfinder druids in general? 1.) Do you gain the animal's monster feats, such as Multiattack? 2.) If not, can my druid take these feats himself, even though he doesn't satisfy the prerequisites unless wild shaped?

    What campy sources do you use as gaming inspiration?

    My next character will likely be a charismatic barbarian or druid, based on Captain Caveman. Yes, he'll have three girlfriends....

    So What Does Your Group Do When NOT in Combat?

    1.) Take names. 2.) Chew bubble gum.

    Hey Rube! and other archaic knowledge

    You reach the same damn audience, you just require some of them to use a dictionary. Do you really think someone's not going to buy a module because it contains some words they aren't familiar with? And is it really all about making money? Isn't that an assumption that may not be valid?

    Hey Rube! and other archaic knowledge

    Are you putting words in my mouth? Or just talking out loud after quoting me? I'm guessing the former. Maybe you just feel inferior, without anyone trying to be superior? Using language in a creative or sophisticated way that others might not understand because they don't know the words or...

    Hey Rube! and other archaic knowledge

    I'm not suggesting anyone write anything with the purpose of making it challenging. (Well, at least outside the classroom.) Instead I'd suggest that people write at whatever level they feel comfortable, and let the reader handle the challenge, if any. Why purposely dumb it down just to reach...

    How should we determine attributes?

    Let me get my math geek hat on...there. Roll 3d6 thirty-six times and put the results in a 6-by-6 matrix. Label the rows/columns Str, Dex, Con, Int, Wis, Cha. Now choose one of the six rows, or one of the six columns, or the main (\) diagonal. "Make it work!" Edit: You can replace 3d6 with...

    Hey Rube! and other archaic knowledge

    <derail>This is what I find sad. As a teacher, I often wonder, "What's so wrong with challenging folks?" That they might have to actually look something up or, gods forbid, learn something new?</derail>

    Subscribers now get the entire WAR OF THE BURNING SKY campaign saga - in 4E AND 3.5!

    No, I meant incentives for the monthly subscriptions (as you are doing), but not as many for folks that want to pay, for example, in one-year blocks. That way everyone can contribute at their comfort level, but if one wants all the perks, they have to go monthly. I'll again bring up the public...

    Subscribers now get the entire WAR OF THE BURNING SKY campaign saga - in 4E AND 3.5!

    It seems like you'd want to have both options -- you don't really want to turn down folks' cash, do you? -- but just create extra incentives for the monthly subscription. I say this as someone who, for example, supports public radio with yearly donations, but doesn't like the monthly...

    Ciphers and Comprehend Langauge (Forked from DM stuff)

    There seems to be some confusion between coding and encryption; they are not the same, though the terms are often used interchangeably. Codes are used to put data into a suitable form for transmitting, usually with error-correction/detection. Encryption, on the other hand, need have no such...

    possibly not a real thread

    Well, "...as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know."

    Gamer ADD

    Yeah, I know what you mean. My group's summer consisted of a 3.5 campaign, interrupted by another 3.5 campaign (due to the first campaign's DM burnout), interrupted by several children being born, board games, anyone?, which led us to BattleTech (mmm, nostalgia), which inspired us to whip up a...
