    Going back to 3.5... Any ideas to 4e-ify it?

    Instead of granting more feats as the PCs level up, my fix has been to allow them to select several of the "utility feats" that you're mentioning at 1st level. How many players will select feats like "Stealthy" or "Athletic" unless they're fighters who have enough combat feats to also take some...

    Misheard Song Lyrics

    I'd seen that video before, and it still makes me laugh like an idiot when I hear that guy. Benny Lava...ha ha ha ha. I don't quite grasp people getting all huffy about it though, it's just a goof. Honestly, some people have no sense of humor.

    Games you've bought recently?

    True, but even the monstes and curses aren't that bad compared to some of the other variants. It's enjoyable anyway, but somewhat less powerful.

    Games you've bought recently?

    Is it just me, or is Muchkin Cthulu severely underpowered compared to many of the other variants, such as Star, Super, or even Fu?

    D&D 3.x Worst 3.5 rule from core books?

    ?!?! Really? I'd never noticed. How absurd.

    The EN World FREE Character Portrait Request Thread!

    Lol. That's awesome. If you do scan it with better resolution please let me know. I'm loving it right now though. Half-orc granny. Frightening.

    Feinting before Improved Trip

    I think I'd agree with you on this one, but it's really a matter of ruling by the DM. As the DM most of the time in my games I would allow this to work as you've stated.

    Proposed fix for spellcaster multiclassing

    Threadcrap? I'm not here to shoot down the idea per se, I'm just trying to get a handle on why people think multiclass spellcasters suck so bad. I know they're less effective against SR and all that, since they have a lower caster level, but I still think they can be done effectively...

    dm's, be honest: how often do you make mistakes?

    I generally make mistakes every session. A particularly big one recently was mistaking "Bless Weapon" for a cleric spell when it's a paladin only spell. The players were fighting a monster that had DR overcome by holy weapons, the cleric had memorized the spell cause the entry for the spell in...

    I'm Looking for Some Good Combat Music

    Basically any video game with a fantasy type theme will have some decent background music or something that one can easily pillage in some form. Buckethead does a lot of cool guitar stuff and has many instrumental albums in just about any style you can imagine (seriously heavy shred stuff to...

    Heroic/Paragon/Epic - How Famous?

    There is still a chance that higher level characters can avoid fame, but as you said, the seemingly casual displays of amazing power will soon spread and tales of the heroes' prowess will undoubtedly follow. It's important to remember that even mid level powers are going to be impressive to the...

    Construct, Golem, or Simulacra.

    Star Wars d20 has various artificial limbs and other organs listed in the Hero's Guide (I think) or in the core book. Just modify the substance they're made from and you could have magic replacements.

    Would you want to eat here?

    What kind of question is this? Of course I'd eat there. 1) I love sushi. Living in Japan for a while does that. 2) Monkeys are like bacon. Awesome in every respect. Adding either to a situation automatically qualifies it for Awesome Moment (or sandwich) of the Week.

    For the EN World Metalheads. Introducing new bands.

    Quite an epic reaction. While Amon Amarth may not use the folk instruments common in Viking metal, I'd still place them closer to that category than Death or Melodic Death. To me, Melo-Death can have all sorts of lyrical themes, but in the case of AA, where there is a strong lyrical focus on...

    Forked Thread: Secret Menus?

    Bah, this song sucks! Sorry. I just can't stand Warrant. And the lyrics aren't even a single entendre, let alone a double.

    D&D 3.5 in Bellingham, WA

    I've recently had some issues with my normal gaming group and am looking for some new blood here in Bellingham. I'll play or DM, depending on whether there's an established group or whether some people want a DM. I'm hoping to play in person.

    Question about the Warforged

    Warforged as a race are fairly powerful for having no Level Adjustment, but I think the whole not needing to eat/sleep/breath thing is hampered by their lack of natural healing, resistance to healing magic, and weakness to rust and similar effects. The race itself isn't capable of tons of...

    Heroic/Paragon/Epic - How Famous?

    That was one thing that bothered me about the Star Wars d20 system where each class gets a Reputation score, which increases as they level. However, the Reputation score improves quicker for Jedi characters, or Nobles, than for Soldiers or Fringers. I found it a little arbitrary, but I do like...

    Heroic/Paragon/Epic - How Famous?

    True, but I think eventually the PCs will go and rescue someone important or save the town from impending doom and thus gain fame. However, this isn't necessarily dependent on level. My players reached epic level and while their actions did have drastic effects on the lives of thousands of...

    Heroic/Paragon/Epic - How Famous?

    Part of the disbelief could be due to exaggeration in tales of the character's adventures. Everyone expects Hulgar the Destroyer to be a massive giant of a man with fire for a beard who eats puppies for breakfast and then smashes kingdoms just for fun. In reality, he's a strong and well trained...
