    would vampire's hit points go down?

    It's the criticals I think being immune to criticals (like mentioned above) is a big deal to a fighter who faces many rapiers and greataxes in his undead career. This fact balances for a humanoid vampire with low Hit Dices, but dragons on the other hand (with naturally high Hit Dices) that...

    Harm Changes

    Recent changes... I've recently changed Harm to this: Heal and Harm achieves their effect by connecting the life force of the subject to the caster. Thus the hit point comparison (although some may argue that hit point is a poor gauge for life force). The moral of the change is: there is...

    [Partial OT] The Monte Cook Ranger

    Whether it is a munchkin class (monte's version of the ranger) or not is beyond me...but I think it does blur the line between the fighter and the ranger in this version. It kinda takes something away from the fighter if you will. [edited for spelling]

    The problem with fighting drow

    *Emphasis mine. LOL! I'm sorry, it was too funny to pass up. It seems to me that Edena's version of the drow (or the campaigns that feature these fearsome drows) seem to empower the drow without giving similar empower to the other prominent races. Salvatore IMO, nicely balanced the drow and...

    What Color Are Drow?

    A little OT... Did you guys know that some books during the TSR days depicts male drows with thick moustaches?

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    I'm happy for Team Corea for making this far. May they improve and solidify their skills and prove the unbelievers that it was not dumb luck that brought them thus far, but true grit and spirit cumulating in a budding super team! We'll have to see come World Cup Germany 2006. :D

    Sorry folks for taking up so much of the thread with stuff unrelated to the subject at hand. Now back to our regular scheduled program and let the World Cup fever reign! ;) [edit for spelling]

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    Of course, you guys probably know more Japanese than I do. I do not profess any proficiency in the language, although I have some in French. The name Corea was not first coined by the Japanese (although I am not certain on who did). French being "la langue internationale" (the official...

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    Rubish, I believe a nation has the manifestic right to name themself whatever they want (names such as the Wacky Land of Sherlock Bones and Nation of Tuscan Riders comes to mind for some weird reason) thank you very much, regardless what some poor befuddled chap puts down on a dictionary. The...

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    You are right regarding Corean being the God of the Smith and Paladins in Scarred Lands. Regarding Corea not equalling Korea however, I'm sorry, but that's where you are misinformed Corinth (if you watch the football games Corea is involved in carefully, the Corean support crowd is waving...

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    I agree with you Black Omega, regarding your assessment of Team Corea. I think the Coreans can attribute their weakness in "finishing" due to their relative inexperience in playing soccer at this level. They are getting there however. On a more positive note, it may be true that only in...

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    I wish luck on all 4 teams as they've played good football over the past month. :) I feel sad that people in this board (and maybe elsewhere as well) feel that the Corean run in this World Cup was "tainted" with bad referee calls. Referees are human and I've seen bad calls called for Coreans...

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    I sincerely hope that the Corean side win over Germany and Brazil win over Turkey, so that the Coreans can really prove themselves at the final...and maybe take home the Cup while they are about it. :D

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    It is percisely experience and raw talent that is drawing the matches closer and closer in terms of level of play. Though Corea is a young country (in terms of history of FIFA greats), Corea's level of playing have been advancing closer to the level of true World Cup greats IMHO. State of...

    [OT] 2002 World Cup, part 2

    Go Corea GO!!! That was a close match, as it could've went either way. Spain put up a tough fight, but none the same, Corea came out victorious. Mayhaps, the country to take home the Golden Cup* is Corea?!? *Statistically, the host country wins the Cup 40% of the time.

    Weak Elves? ...Why?

    Weakeness can also imply the reluctance to resort to manly melee fights. Most stereotypical elf will shoot you (the dwarf, human, or orc in question) from cover, preferrably from a far away place, rather than face you toe to toe, blade to blade.

    Pretty fast. And if he's smart, he's going to take it. Preferrebly somewhere far from Italy... ;) Just heard from news that Perugia decided to let him go before the World Cup (you be the judge), while the chairman of club Perugia said something to the effect of "As a Nationalist, I would...
