    Questionable morals - PC's killing children

    Ah, let's see here... on what pages can I find these parts of the argument: Nature v. Nurture Absolute Morality v. Relative Morality Well, as a DM who likes to fiddle with things, I pretty much take the fashionable Environmental Determinism angle on pretty much everything that's not Undead...

    Broken Ranger problem solved by Kalamar PG?

    Misuse of Term? I suppose what he was trying to say is that it presents a Ranger-esque class that feels more like what some may subjectively believe to be more fitting than the dual weilding, one-level-wonder we now know as the PHB Ranger... I'm inclined to agree with KK, but of course, as a...

    Armies of The Ancient World

    KoK Applications... I noticed that (SHARK?) said something to the nature of "wheat is an inefficient crop ... compared to rice." Now, reading the Kingdoms of Kalamar Campaign Setting, I find that the largest of the Kingdoms, Kalamar itself, has rice as its staple crop... So, here we have the...

    The Divine Right of (Sovereigns) Excellent thread, my good man, excellent indeed. :cool: The Kingdoms of Kalamar Player's Guide has an entry pertaining to something they call "The Divine Right of Kings" where the nobility (From Baron to King & Emperor) are each accorded certain benefits for...

    Stronghold builders guidebook

    It's out, regardless of release dates... ... or so it seems, hehe. :cool: Yeah, I'm interested in the book, but at CAN$31.95, I'd like to hear some stuff about it. Needless to say, it's sitting on the shelves of both my "local" gaming stores, and I'm thinking about picking it up.

    Changing Armour Penalties to Movement

    Hey, I was just wondering what kind of effect the following changes would have on the game if the rules for armour penalties to movement were changed thusly: Would this have a big effect on the game? Regardless, could this be thought of as a positive change, or a negative one? Anyway...

    Anybody else HATE item creation feats?

    I've come to the stark realization that, unlike the original quote, the inverse is true for D&D, at least in my opinion: "Sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology." I've found that this is how I tend to run my games... Not because I'm some raving technologist, but...

    RL stats

    Silly, but... ... I still have issues with the use of the IQ for anything other than diagnosing learning disabilities, but I ended up doing the test... Str: 10 Dex: 13 Con: 9 Int: 13 Wis: 16 Chr: 12 I did find however, that the Intelligence scores on this one seem more accurate. There are...

    (IR) IR Interlude Turn 6 - Turn 7 (thread 4)

    It's not that simple, my friend... ((Oh, no problem with that, but, of course, I will also do what I must... You act as if it's already a done deal, and I somehow doubt that an entire population of people will blindly join a blatantly undemocratic, and illegitimate force. The people of the...

    Extreme Measures for Extreme Circumstances A pair stride down the marble-floored halls of Commonwealth Mansion with a quick pace. One, a male elf dressed in the uniform black and white of a high-up Minister, has a look of preoccupation on his face. The other, a woman wearing much the same...

    My apologies everyone, I've been a bit tied up with my final exams and studying for such exams... The good news is that I've completed my History and International Relations exams, and only have two more ahead of me... I find, however, that I've fallen behind (yet again)... All right, well...

    Stupid characters.....

    Uh... Nice logic, but if you're implying what I think you are, it's pretty much not true. I don't believe that his characters have been killed at all... Personally, I think he sets some significant importance on the possibility of very powerful characters. I think the whole idea of...

    Stupid characters.....

    One of the major players in my group absolutely detests the idea of point-buy attributes. He said it doesn't feel right with that whole D&D feel. I must confess that I've no idea what he's talking about, but pehaps we can ask Holy Bovine, if he's still around... :p Still, I'm not much for that...

    Stupid characters.....

    A Question of Scale I really think it depends on what you think a "stupid character" is... I personally believe that there's nothing wrong with having an Intelligence bonus of less than +1. There are some characters that I believe do not benefit from having a high Intelligence. Fighters...
