    Weretiger ECL 1 ?!?!?

    I think a weretiger is easy +10 ECL. Playtesting may show that to be too low, though. Compare it to an ogre at ECL +8 (from the Dragon article), and it is considerably better. More HD, much better stats, damage reduction, shapechanging, powerful natural attacks, scent, increased speed, etc...

    New Wave (The Company) Sucks

    So have I. The prices are outstanding, and they ship the stuff quickly and well packaged. If you really need to have a good shopping cart web experience, try http://www.frpgames.com. They do about 20% (seems it's more on some items), and their service is good too (according to my buddy who...

    Who is the Leader among D20 companies?

    I voted for Green Ronin. I liked their adventures and the Freeport book, but I really liked the monter books, Secret College of Necromancy, Secret Societies, and the Shaman book. Keep it up, GR. I was shocked at the rules errors in Deathright, given that WotC supposedly goes over Kenzer's...

    What are You Looking Forward To?

    I think it's amazing that as often as this is said, nothing official is being done (that we know about, anyway). If the right D20 company (particularly Monte) bought the rights to this and published a 3E PS setting, I'm sure it would sell well. I wonder why nobody has licensed it from WotC.

    Sneak Attacks!

    Stark- If you're looking for something official to show your DM, it's in the FAQ somewhere, which is available at Wizards' site. I can't remember exactly where it is, but it's in there.

    Upcoming Necro products

    One word- Wow. After reading What Evil Lurks, I am especially looking forward to anything Lance does. I can't wait to run that adventure.

    Announcing OGL Interlock from Green Ronin & Paradigm Concepts

    Nikchik wrote: That's great news. I'm really looking forward to that book. I'm hoping you guys you it 1E justice, instead of "Drow as chaotic good player characters". The more I think about, the more I think this is a good idea. I've been a loyal GR customer since DiF, but I've never picked...

    Announcing OGL Interlock from Green Ronin & Paradigm Concepts

    I think it's great that the two companies have agreed to do this. However, I have a question for GR. If Paradigm is doing the Elf book, what happens to your Drow book with the really cool title (Plots and Poisons I think it was)? Will that be rolled into Paradigm's Elf book, or would you still...

    Another OCCULT LORE Preview

    John- Please keep it up with the diversity. While I think both versions of the Pangunculus are interesting, I like yours better, so the options are a good thing. Me too, definitely.

    What are You Looking Forward To?

    ELH FR City of the Spider Queen GR's race books GR's book of the righteous Occult lore Tome of Horrors Windhaven Fields of Blood I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting.

    multiclass penalty for prestige classing?

    It's on page 27 of the DMG, the third sentence of the second paragraph under the prestige classes section header.

    [OT] Basketball anyone?

    Reapersaurus- I too was surprised to see the Kings miss so many free throws. However, now that they're gone through that experience, I don't expect the same thing to happen next year in the same situation. This should be a great rivalry for at least a couple more years (unless the Kings do...

    [OT] Basketball anyone?

    I definitely gained a lot of respect for Mike Bibby. He played a helluva series.

    Gaming group dynamics

    I don't agree. Many of us have the kinds of jobs that could interfere at the last minute. I had to cancel a play session once in the middle of a combat because I got called to a customer site. Some of my players have had similar circumstances. Two of my players (a married couple) have cancelled...

    What do you think of this race

    I'd say this race is better than the other +1 ECL races out there, but maybe not as good as the +2 ECL races. In a case like that, I believe it's best to err on the side of caution, and make the race ECL +2. That way, if a player wants to use the race for roleplaying reasons, he should be fine...

    Meeting PrC pre-reqs

    I don't think too many DM's (any?) make their players go through that list step by step every time they level up a character, but it is something to point to if you ever wonder if you can take a PrC on the same level you meet the pre-reqs (no) or if you get an extra skill rank to spend if you...

    Gaming group dynamics

    I've got nine players in my group (which I won't be anxious to do again in any campaign, that's for sure), and all of them have adult responsibilities. Sometimes work comes up, sometimes there's an issue with the kids, sometimes they have a wedding to attend, etc. So, we end up missing one or...

    Best Mass Combat Rules?

    I haven't looked at the mass combat rules in some of the products already on the market (Mongooses' TQF, AEG's War, etc.), so I have no opinion on them, but personally I'm waiting for Eden's Fields of Blood. While the other products tend to have a much broader scope and include mass combat as a...

    Meeting PrC pre-reqs

    Page 145 of the PH gives the order. The first thing you do when you level up is choose a class. So, if you haven't met the pre-reqs for a PrC, then you can't choose the class. You can pick feats that you just met certain pre-reqs for because feats are one of the last items on the list. So, if...

    General Green Ronin Update

    I've got a question for GR. Did you guys try talking to WotC about including their spells from non-SRD sources, like Magic of Faerun? It would have been a pleasant surprise to see those included, and I'm curious if they were at all open to talking you guys about it.
