    Picture of my new Warduke tattoo!

    Nice Ink! Warduke's always been cool in my book, having had the action figure when I was young. Of course, the GM in my current game handed the barbarian the D&D mini of Warduke to represent his character and I was the only one who knew who he was... (they're all 30 or less in age).

    Coolest. Gaming Set-up. Evar.

    Heh, I picked up a Wiimote with a gift card a few days ago for just this purpose. The IR penlight is gonna be a bit tougher for me, but I plan to make it work.

    Coolest. Gaming Set-up. Evar.

    I know this thread is ancient, but it's still awesome. I'm joining the ranks. Picked up my InFocus IN26+ today. Dundjinni maps are ready, and I'm working out the best way to mount it. I'm currently leaning towards positioning it high on top of a bookshelf and then reflecting it down, possibly...

    Streamlining Entangle

    Anyone here worked with the spell Entangle? I'll admit, I DM most of the time and don't look at the specifics of some spells, trusting my players with some of the hard work. The tables turned recently, and now I'm handling a low-level druid. Of course, I broke out the Entanlge spell, and wow...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#31)---11/12/07-'Four Months Ago'

    Given all of the family ties they've pushed on us this season, has anyone theorized that D.L. may also be part of a bloodline? If he were a descendant of Deveaux (Simone's father) having something like his dreamlike powers could make for a few more appearances by the actor.

    Bardic feat for twin songs?

    Thanks, man. Yeah, there's some irony there, as the group convinced the bard to spec out of War Chanter because the first abilities were ineffectual (away from a large army).

    Bardic feat for twin songs?

    My group was thinking there was some feat in the WotC material that let a bard weave two songs together in one use. Anyone know of such a feat? Quickly glancing through Comp. Arcane, Adventurer, and Scoundrel, I didn't see anything. There are some Virtuoso class abilities that require...

    Sacred Cows You Hope Die?

    Strength = Weapon Skill. "I'm beefy strong, so I hit better than you, Mr. Dextrous Fencer, unless you take a special feat."

    [August] What are you playing?

    I'm going slightly old-school this month. Just finished the original Half-Life (never made it far before), and I've got a good chunk of hours in Half-Life 2 with Episode One waiting in the wings. And Oblivion, which I'm really starting to enjoy. Also been running through the Quake Wars: Enemy...

    Fallout: worth picking up?

    As to the installing on XP question, it does work. For me, I just had to go into properties for the setup.exe file, select the Compatibility tab, and check all of the options under Compatibility Mode and Display Settings. Then it should install and handle all of the graphic properly. Now that...

    Bard resources, discussions

    Thanks for the advice thus far. I'll point him in the direction of some of the feats and PrCs and we'll probably rework his character a bit. I think the crowd control tactic works well for him, as he's used Tasha's laughter on a few occasions, and I'll suggest the Fascinate route as well. His...

    Bard resources, discussions

    Hello folks. Anyone have any links to good resources or discussions about using Bards effectively in dungeon settings? A player of mine is currently 9th lvl in my Age of Worms campaign, and he's suffering in the combat scenes. He's not as experienced of a player and is cool about advice, so I'd...

    Malazan Book of the Fallen

    Nice work. I need to continue on with the series, myself. I enjoyed Gardens of the Moon, but haven't been able to make it through Deadhouse Gates as of yet. I'm guessing you're a big fan?

    Channeled spells vs. Invisibility

    Weird question from a player/GM friend of mine. If a caster is in the midst of casting Call Lightning gains the invisibility effect, would the subsequent actions of calling down lightning bolts against targets break the invisibility? He's thinking that since the actions are indirect, it may not...

    Thanks for the work involved! This will help me better populate my campaign wiki.

    Dunjinni? Anyone still use this?

    I constantly use it for my games, and the community on the forums is still putting out objects to import for your own maps. Whereas other products come and go for me (Fantasy Grounds, for example), I imagine I'll use Dundjinni for a long time.

    BattleStar Galactica:Season 3.5--2/18/07--Arc 14

    Yeah, the concensus around the office this morning was a big yawn for the filler episode. Seeing the previews for next week, we're hoping that the drama with Tyro and his wife is the real catalyst for the upcoming 'mutiny'.

    Ugh, I had forgotten about that forsaken horse ride. Iriitating. But I will admit, I loved picking locks in that game.

    Weapons you wished you'd see sometimes.

    The fighter in my current Planescape game has purposely gone for the not-so-common choices like the falchion and bolas, so I'm pretty pleased with that. Looks like I'm the odd one out, but I would enjoy for one of my players to go for the Spiked Chain option. Realism be damned, it just looks...
