    So many monsters ... way too many, in fact

    Lamoni/anyone else interested: I have an excel file of beasties - w/ MM 1-2, Creature Catalog 1-3, Monsternomicon, Arms and Equipment Guide, Monsters of Faerun (3.0), Book of Eldritch Might, Book of Vile Darkness, Legions of Hell, Savage Species, Miniatures Handbook Expand. PSI, and the...

    Help me design a room in my dungeon

    Kugar: Excellent! And it 'scales' nicely too (couldn't resist the pun - sorry about the heavy handed humor)! Your idea is rather sneaky - I like that. B:]B

    Help me design a room in my dungeon

    Kalendraf: "I hope that's kind of what you were looking for..." :D Yep! Cool - feedback! I like the idea of the sphinx blocking the true passage - I may just steal that. It reduces the amount of magic needed to make this room work. The multiple riddle would be a set of riddles all based...

    Help me design a room in my dungeon

    Last desperate bump. :confused: Nobody home? :eek: Have I grabbed the imagination of Enworld (and strangled it)?

    Help me design a room in my dungeon

    Setting – room is 2nd part of a barrier that prevents people walking into a treasure room and holy of holies for a dead civilization (an Egyptian-Incas mix). Only the priesthood and the royal family supposed to be able to pass through area. Room has a sphinx-like creature and stands before a...

    Weekly spells

    Hmm - I like the idea of waiting a week to regain a cast spell. But... 1) magic items would become even more powerful in comparison (1/day mage armor amulet, shoes of spider climb 2/day, etc) - allowing the owner to outshine the caster in question. 2) low level play is difficult in extreme -...

    Lost Classes Collection I

    This PDF has 6 prestige classes - made to be portable into any fantasy game and to be new/original. I found most of the material unoriginal and 2/3 of the material derivative of marvel superheroes. Of the 6, only 1 was an original idea (the Djinni Sage) - and it was flawed to the point of...

    Brotherhood of the Spider

    The Brotherhood of the Spider: at first glance it is well made. The PDF is cleanly arranged (though expensive, $1 for 1 prestige class!) and easy to read through. The initial section details the history of the prestige class - giving the DM several hooks to place it in a game as well as points...

    Prestige Classes, Demographics, Clerics and Statistics.

    For prestige classes - remember that the npc classes can still qualify for prestige classes. An 9th warrior human has 4 feats and would thus qualify for many fighter prestige classes.

    Poll: How do Illusionists compare, then/now?

    The unique spell list of the 1e illusionist was the entire point of the class. It directed the leanings, shaped the threat NPC's represented, made them, in fact, a whole new type of beast. Same thing with a druid and cleric - why the difference? Having different spells available at different...

    [EN Publishing Open Call] Playtesting Art of Magic

    Hmmm, yes. I would be interested in playtesting this product. My current status: LV 10 game geek (But no prestige class yet - I didn't choose the correct feats!). I have a group of 5 (plus myself) to playtest this product with. My E-mail: iwhoambob@yahoo.com B:]B

    The Quintessential (Something) II

    Any specific books you have found useful, or perhaps sections? It would be great to find some gems - so any suggestions as to where I should dig? The WotC books have been ok quality - but nothing to brag about. The biggest complain I've had about their material is lack of playtest. Some...

    The Quintessential (Something) II

    Not to be dense, but what is up with these books? Has anyone bought them? The initial books came out early, had some good ideas (and serious balance issues!) but 'wonky' for game insertion. By 'wonky' I mean: difficult to add into an existing game. The odd mechanics, focus varied (details...

    Monster list in excel

    Well - I just grab the 2nd line and drag down, then choose data, then sort. I'm sure their is a better way known to the excel savy. B:]B

    Monster list in excel

    This is a list of monsters in excel - broken down with CR, Type, Sub-type, and enviro. My goal was to include a comprehensive list to speed my choice of monsters up. Let me know what you think - and about errors found. Yellow highlight is area missing info/needs to be checked. Green is...

    How Should the Paladin Suffer?

    Ignore the others - I love the set up you have! He he - twist that dagger. Game events should have some emotion connected to them, and this promises to be a rather gut wrenching event. I say good GMing! :D B:]B

    XP Cost to use a Magical Item

    Jeez, some people take the exp idea rather hard! :p Rather then making all items cost exp, it would make for a nice change of pace. You could even make it a style of an old civilization or odd culture. Imagine wands that drain the user 10*(Caster LV) exp each time they are fired - but do...

    Is there a compiled monster list somewhere?

    Hot Damn!!!!! Between this (http://www.enworld.org/cc/locator/index.php)and http://www.sulerin.com/creatures/creatures.asp?op=index, I should be able to extract the names and CR's w/out too much trouble! Not exactly what I'm looking for, but a damn sight better then what I had. Thanks to...
