    Chicago Gameday XVI planning thread - Feb 24th: Head to the sign-up thread

    Oh man... I wasn't trying to guilt you into running a game! Honest... I was just razzing you a bit. Please, feel free to play in something. Wilimac can hold off for one Game Day. :)

    Chicago Gameday XVI planning thread - Feb 24th: Head to the sign-up thread

    Man, no halfling fun and no FCWeasle Serenity either. Ah well. I'll have to find ANOTHER game where my talents are appreciated. :) Take over!? I've honestly not thought about it. I think I'll need a long time to get used to my new DM shoes before I'll feel confident enough to run a...

    Full round casting, reflex saves, area of effect spells

    Yes, that was what I was thinking of. Movement needed to avoid the damage while still being able to cast the spell. This even took place in our game last night (as I thought it might). The character made his reflex save and I called for a save vs the spell dc per above which he failed. A...

    Full round casting, reflex saves, area of effect spells

    Or I could use this line on the same chart: Distracting spell’s save DC Distracted by nondamaging spell.

    Yes... seems like it should trigger a Concentration check though. Thanks for the reply. rv

    Full round casting, reflex saves, area of effect spells

    Hi, I don't think this is covered in the rules. Lets say a Sorc/Rog is casting an Enlarge Person spell (casting time 1 round). While he is casting, an area of effect spell goes off and he is in its effect. Does he get a reflex save per normal. If he makes it (and has Evasion) does he then...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Yep. I find this to be equal parts interesting and annoying. :) Even something so simple as at T intersection means I don't know which way the party will go that night and so can't prepare as much in advance as I'd like. Heck, some times I'm not sure which REGION they are going to play in...

    Giant Crocodile - Strong CR4?

    I've wondered about this too. Is the 10x10 (or whatever) rule only in effect during combat? I.e. in normal circumstances a horse can move though a 5' hallway but once fighting starts it is hindered as it wants to flail around with its hooves. Same with the snake... it can move though the...

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    I've had a couple of sessions in J. So far its been pretty fun. Though scary as the characters are in over their heads. The fought the behir in the water with no problem. Found the 3 fighting to the South and quietly moved away. Found the magmen chanting along the river and left them alone too...

    Ways to prevent/bypass AoOs from movement

    Wall of Force/Fire/Iron/Stone in a line to the left or right of the creature, then run on the other side of the wall. Fire as you can't see though the WoF so no Aoo's through it. rv

    Wall of Fire Spell

    Ahem, well in part its a bone thrown to me to get over losing the WoF stacking. :) (At least till the players start to get them... then I'd hate the ruling I'm sure). I WAS thinking about each 5 foot area being different. Each time you move you are considered to be 'Where the spell is'. I...

    Wall of Fire Spell

    Hah, good one. :) Well, one is weapon damage and one is Spell Effect damage. Its the Spell Effect that has rules about stacking. Sigh... You guys were close to getting me but I can't get past that often quoted rule. BTW Guys, thanks for all the input. rv

    Wall of Fire Spell

    Yeah, this is something to keep in mind too. Not so much warlocks, but anyone that can cast lots of WoF. And what about the fact that it can be made permanent? Someone with enough resources could have 100 or more WoF in the same line. Is this ok?

    Wall of Fire Spell

    It was a case of Noble Fire Salamanders dropping Walls of Fire on the party while they were in a hallway. One was already laid down and I thought about dropping another on top of the first one. Thats when the ? about stacking came up. Yes, for the most part the party was staying in the walls...

    Wall of Fire Spell

    I'm on the other side. "It seems right but the rules say..." I'm trying to run this game as close to RAW as I can. Can you support your statment? I'd The quoted rules are the only ones I've seen (so far) for how spell effects stack. Thanks, rv

    Wall of Fire Spell

    Lets see if I can get it quoted better... From : http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicOverview/castingSpells.htm#combiningMagicalEffects As Infinity says, the 'Stacking Effects' is an upper level item and the others are subsections. But, shouldn't that be seen as follows: Wall of Fire is not a...
