Because the force shield created by the ring still needs to be wielded? I assume the shield is being dismissed on the character's turn so that they can quickdraw a weapon and actually fight two-weapon style. Or something like that. Seems silly to me. Just take a buckler with the applicable feats...

I find it interesting that Radiant Servant of Cheese has the fewest votes, and I believe rightly so. I also excluded Ur-priest and Shugenja, although I might be convinced on that last. --Seule

Ooh! Ooh! Yes! Yes! --Seule

Malcolm (c. 1997) by the Arrogant Worms (http://www.arrogant-worms.com/) Billy solves his problems by calling up his mom Heather solves her problems with drugs and alcohol Daniel solves his problems with a doctor and the law But Malcolm has his own way and it's better than them all 'Cause...

Technically, you must only not commit evil acts. As long as you don't actually lose your LG alignment, chaotic acts are okay.... which never made sense to me. My Paladin is way more lawful than good. That's neither here nor there, anyway. If you are still making the character, then things like...

The obvious solution is to take some Paladin levels instead of Fighter levels, as Cavalier will stack with Paladin for the mount abilities. Voila, a levelled heavy warhorse. Plus, the combination of Smite Evil and Deadly Charge is just sick, particularly with Power Attack. I have a Paladin...

I met my wife at a convention (I was running a table she played at). We met again at a party a year later, and almost at the same time I joined a game she was in. We've been together ever since, and out 8th anniversary is in about a month. There was no RPG theme at the wedding out of deference...

I believe that the key thing that's here that isn't anywhere else is rules on mass combat. How to convert hundreds or thousands of combatants on each side into a manageable chore. There are cool PrCs (I mention the Tactical Soldier as a favourite) and a few feats, and the magic items are cool...

Might I venture to guess that in whatever alternate timeline they have shifted to the Eyes already exist, and they can't exist in two places at once? If I'm right, they are out there again, waiting to be found and used. I'm probably wrong though. --Seule

I'm pretty sure that the narrator is small and shiny. :) --Seule

So, on the preview of the Monster Manual in the back of the book, I can't find out how much XP each monster is worth. How am I supposed to use them if I can't figure out how much XP to award for defeating them? Plus, where's their treasure types? --Seule

My understanding of Ice-9 is that it's not actually cold, it's just solid at room remperature. Added to the fact that it's by definition a form of water, magma shouldn't be affected. Heck, places with geothermal activity are likely to become the only natural sources of liquid water. --Seule

The module is basically a meatgrinder of traps and undead. Over and over, more traps and undead, with the occasional construct or Girallon thrown in for variety. That's really all it is. There's some imaginative stuff there, but it's overshadowed by the sameness of most of it. When I ran it I...

A long wait, but worth it. --Seule

Empire is a very very good album. Operation: Mindcrime is (IMNSHO) an acceptable album, impressive yes, but not something I actually like to listen to a lot. Nothing else ranks, I don't think. Has anyone considered Billy Idol? --Seule

Queensryche had only one good album. It's an extremely good album, but still, only one does not qualify them to be in the same category as some of the other bands mentioned. --Seule

Exactly. The effect here is, from the SRD: That's a lot of cool effects, notably 2 better AC and saves against many opponents, and immunity to an entire class of spells. Much more valuable than 2k gold. I'd price it at least 10 times higher, probably more. --Seule

I run a biweekly Living Greyhawk game with my wife, in Guelph, Ontario. We have people turn up who haven't played since AD&D 1st edition, or that have never played D&D at all. We regularly teach people how to do skill checks and suchlike, as well as how to fill out the paperwork of a Living...

How about: I play in it a little, but it's not my primary world? --Seule

Disregarding outside factors like power attack and such, each +1 to hit means (generally) one extra hit per 20 attacks. That means on every swing, on average, you do an extra 1/20 your average damage. Therefore, if you average over 40 damage per hit, then +1 to hit is better, otherwise +2 to...
