    Could the Live Transformers Movie Herald...

    I don't see how in the name of drunken ninja Jesus you can do Evangelion without Kaoru. Heck, I don't know how they can do it at all in a single film!

    Dude, I am framing this quote on one panel of my frickin' screen.

    Help me with a Magical WOMD

    I like the idea of the mega-disjunction. And Aeric, the spell you're thinking of is Genesis, and the Anti-Genesis effect.

    BU, RC, I've gotta ask this, I think I just hit on something: What's your campaign structure? Do you have a continuing storyline, or do you do what I do, which is say to the players "here's the world, do what thou wilt"? Maybe its just me, but I think that one is more supporting of the...

    Holy nut monkeys. It was the first time at a session, but this gimboid git had been at it previously, AFTER you'd already told him no? OK, at that point he needed to be whacked upside the head. Your cigar.

    Well, RC gets quoted because he posted second, but this is adressed to BU and RC. I'm getting the distinct impression that we're functionally saying the same thing in two different languages. Or more accurately, two different philosophies that lead to the same destination. At the end of the...

    Well, I'm not you, and I wasn't there, but was that really necessary FIRST TIME ROUND? You could have just told him you didn't appreciate that sort of usurpation, and asked him to stop, rather than pulling out your DM=God stick and delivering an almighty whack?

    At what point did KM say that the GM's responsibility is to make sure that their fun is immediate? I can't speak for KM, but AFAIC, the GM's responsibility (and I use the word deliberately) is to provide fun in the long term, in line with all their other responsibilities. No argument here...

    Necromancer: which two schools to give up?

    Let's see... Abjuration: A must keep, if for no other reason than Dispel Magic. This spell saves lives. Conjuration: The ability to cause SR ignoring damage is fantastic, as is teleportation and the escape hatch/Dimension Door. Another keeper. Divination: You can't give this one up...

    Clerics, Wizards , Psions....3.5 ubbered or dwarfed

    There is nothing, NOTHING a high level character can do that a cleric of the same level can't do better. Except an Artificer, their motto is "anything you can do, I can do better".

    Wizards in a rough patch?

    I know I'm gonna regret bringing this up, but what was wrong with the Dungeon/Dragon special on Dark Sun? Having never played old DS or any old editions of D&D, I have no reference point.

    Stormwrack - Mastering the Perils of Wind and Wave

    Thanks for the errata, as always! Thankfully, many of these errors seem to be in the sample NPCs, where I NEVER look, although the Doom of the Seas smeg-up is cause for concern! Best things about this book though: 1. No "Shocking Spell" stupidity like Searing Spell in Sandstorm or Piercing...

    Zaratan - A Giant Turtle - Where to find it?

    Use the improvised weapons rules from the Complete Warrior. That's how Hulking Hurlers are able to shatter planets, after all.

    Great Hero Showdown Round 4 (Voting Closed)

    1. Conan the Cimmerian (Robert Howard's novels, Conan movies) versus Indiana Jones (Indiana Jones movies) Indy wins this one. He's smarter, more resourceful (only just) and has infinitely more style. 2. Batman (Batman comics, Batman movies) versus Odysseus (mythology) Batman. Solely through...

    What do you think WotC should be making?

    More in the genre series, like Heroes of The Throne (can you say Birthright?) Heroes of Mystery (this'd be a must have for Eberron!) Heroes of Drama That sort of thing would be a seller, I reckon. Heck, I know I'd be buying the first two!

    Humorous descriptions for skill failures/successes

    Not for skills they don't, but for attack rolls and saves. Skills have no autopass/autofail provision, with (IIRC) one exception in "Use Magic Device". Here's some of ours, anyway Spot: "Where are my shoes!?" <or> "I can see my shoes!" <or> "You see Elvis" Listen: "La, lalalala..." (Smurf's...

    Can a Warlock's Eldritch Blast be countered?

    Narrow selection of powers, pitiful damage output (at 20th level its WOOOOH 9d6), enormous feat hunger, inability to deal with grapples. Did I mention the VERY narrow selection of powers?
