Erm, yea, this isn't a 'first'. I remember one of these from as far back as 6 years ago.

Only trouble with that I see is that said wizard is only going to be interested in a rather small subset of items that ae possible from the random treasure pool (ie, the items he can immediately use, that he hasn't traded for already). Or, of course, if you use the 'upgrade item' rules and...

Kinda curious what the policy regarding ENnie judges being playtesters for products (either ones that are eligible for awards, or elsewise)?

Hehe, actually, I think that would muddy it further. As my initial read of that implies that the readied action starts and finishes completely before the triggering action :). Now, if it just stated flatly that the readied action interupts the triggering action (with clarification that unless...

Echoes of the Past uses 3.0 Psionics... (The same Psi rules that are currently in the SRD) To my knowledge, WotC hasn't released the 3.5 Psi Document to developers for use yet, but from just a skim over the rules content and the 'already known' content from 3.5 psi, there are some troubles...

Hmm, not too sure I agree there. The interuption clause comes into play with 'multi-part' actions (such as Charge) I had thought, but it also explicitly states that the readied action occurs before the action that triggered it... So you would, technically be threatening him 'before' he...

Just a quick fun question for this supposition. How do those with the 'random loot' get it? From other critters with random loot? Just a bit confused here as to the implication, given that there exists mechanics at least for people to create their items of choice. It isn't as if Wizards go...

I just had an interesting thought and was wondering about other views/takes on it. The Loremaster is supposed to represent a book worm, more or less, with the Loremaster Lore ability they tend to just learn a bunch of 'miscellenous oddities'/secrets from their studies. I was pondering if it'd...

Similiar to the justification of the Power Point tables for Psions (ironic sidenote, 20th level psions have about 40 to 60 fewer power points than a wizard or a sorcerer's spell points). The added ability to apply Metamagic feats 'on the go' (For the prepared spellcasters), and the ability to...

Well, there isn't a God of Humans... That's most likly the reason why.

I'm assuming it will, but it's really hard to say. Given that's it being presented (or at TITLED) Expanded Psionic's Handbook, seems like it would, but I honestly couldn't say either way until it's out. [ I hope it is, because it'll give a nice immediate break from the Insane Cross-Referencing...

Even with dominate, it wouldn't work unless you give them a Thrall-like duration, or dominate with significant duration, but even then, it'd be more productive to do it the Old Fashion Way and just use dominate/charm to help reinforce it. I remember the 'history' of the Gith presented in...

Negative. It has spells from MagF, FRCS, and a handful of other FR sources. I'm not sure if there are any unique spells in it (as I don't have Underdark or Races of Faerun to compare against). The spell list, however, is NOT all inclusive of the spells from Magic of Faerun, the FRCS...

There are enough rules in just SM to run a game their I believe. Trouble is, you're going to find alot of PrCs missing and alot of spells/feats missing. It only reprints the stuff that changed with 3.5, while it references the stuff that did not. I really can't recommend it myself, but I...

That's actually already true, near when you break lvl 20... Due to the majority of damage being determined by weapon modifiers rather than the weapon's actual damage. Of course, 3.5 tried to help this out with Power Attack's change to 2h weapons, but I have no clue how to approach that :)...

Well, the situation here is unique, it will most likly be an online campaign and the group of folks who've been bugging me to run a game were already amiable to this idea, so I decided to run with it :).

If they suspect incoming battle, and they're teleporting into 'their general area' (as opposed to teleport nearby, and sneak in), roll initiative. Anyone who isn't reasonably aware, will be subject to a surprise round. Act as a body shield/attack incoming mage reads mostly as a readied action...

Actually, ya know, thinking about it. Luclin may well fit as a setting. The moon is the domain of a 'shadow-themed' god, which matches Luclin pretty closely. The shissar's back history 'almost' fits in snuggly, except for the part about the goddess offering them sanctuary. A further problem...

Well, the reason I have for a Code of Conduct is two fold (at least to me initially). Firstly, to enforce the military climate/environment. And secondly, to be fair in the same way that the 'standard of conduct' should be understood between DM and Player for a Paladin.

I'm thinking more of a General Irregular/Situational Operations group. They would be part of a 'larger' group of troops, but the majority of the game will be irregular operations and not involving more than their 'small unit'. Military Politics will probably come up, although alot of that...
