    Why don't flesh eating zombies eat each other?

    Further hijacking.... In the film they explained it as the virus spread so fast they couldnt kill them quick enough, blood spattering from close up combat converted the front line and all that muckety muck. Seems to me like a couple of sealed APC's and some hazmat suits for backup would take...

    D&D Miniatures - Thumbs up or down?

    Way thumbs up for me, and heres why. I paint my own minitures both plastic and metal, I take a lot of pride in the hard work it takes and the time I spend on them. I hate when players who are not currently playing, decide to bend the swords, play with them like 3 year olds and generally...

    Dragon SRD question

    Another question in the same vien How many points would a black dragon get through 9 HD since the Int score doesn't show as going up until 10 HD? And does this extrapolate further through the other age categories when the Int score is high enough to receive a "plus bonus"? For instance...

    Dragon SRD question

    According to the 3.5 SRD dragons get skill points using the following equation. All dragons have skill points equal to (6 + Int modifier, minimum 1) x (Hit Dice + 3). To me if you had an 4 HD wrymling dragon with an 8 INT That would mean it would have 28 skill points, or (6 + -2=)4 x (4 +3=) 7...

    How does a rogue fight the Undead?

    Flaming oil, holy water, and if your lucky enough to find them disruption weapons work well. Or have your spell caster spell up your mace, then wade into combat with new confidence.

Ive even told them to take all 18's if they wish, but to beware that the adventure will be that much harder for them. So far I have only...
