Note: This is partly a rant and partly a discussion directed towards the Enworld community about different approaches and philosophies about games. I'm playing in a Warhammer fantasy game with my group of friends here at college and I'm a bit put off with how the session went tonight. Our...

Disjunction sucks just as much as save vs death affects.

The idea of figuring out the Mourning would be a great idea, though I tend to believe there would have been a series of siginifcant events the culminated in a single moment, which produced the devistation known as the Day of Mourning. Three books to check out about dragonmarks and the Prophesy...

I think the convension of a hole in the ground screams for players to enter it. Classic DnD move, yes, they likely should have done some investigation before entering the hole, but how did you open the game? Did the violent deaths and the hole appear at the beginning of the session or in the...

A few years ago, I walked into my game store and sorted through their random dice set and found a number of d10s with the magic mana symbols on them, specifically fire and plains. Did they make a set for all 5 of the colors? Do you have any idea where I could get more?

I'm going to assume adventurers for the moment. Remove teleport, detect spells, cure spells and reserrection spells, they're pretty boned.

For a good time, talk to Betty! Don't talk to Betty! She's got a dental dam of devouring!!

I would not penalize the druid for sacrificing their animal companion to feed the party, though he might have been able to use a combination of summons or animal empathy to sway a creature to show up that they could then slaughter for food. The natural realm's not very pretty and sometimes...

I'm sure that a healing club would be pretty pretty funny, but the bard could just use wands of healing. The class has it as a class skill, but I'm pretty sure, so long as the spell's on your list of spells (overall list, not just known to the character), they can cast the spell from the wand.

What plane did they shift from? I'd use the poor roll your player made plus the energies from the plane they came from dictate what kind of creatures you populate the city with. I'd make the city a manifest zone for the moon of ice and another one, maybe the one of war? A fiend could have been...

You want to look at classes with good skill lists so you can take advangate of Int stat. How are you determining stats, because you are just asking for a character with MAD syndrome with is midly bad. If its point-buy, you will not be able to dedicate a lot of points to strength, dex and con...

I haven't painted minitures in years, but I'm very focused on the details of my mini. I might have the best skills, but I would spend a lot of time on them trying to dry brush and put several coats on it. Painting mounted characters sucks a whole lot if you want to spend a bit of time on them...

I also disagree. When you come into a new gaming group, you have no idea what books are avaiable for character generation or resources that players might be able to draw from. The "core" only game serves as a primary example of this. Yes, Races of Stone or PHBII might have official rules within...

He was likely talking about the Half-Elf.

I don't mean to sound snarky, but how in the world can you run Age of Worms as a low magic adventure without a lot of work retailering the adventure? Personally, I think the problem might be that you placed the highly magically dependent adventure path into a low magic setting. The play testers...

The Druid should pick up spontaneous healer from complete divine. Single feat, very powerful and that way he doesn't need to waste spell slots preparing healsauce, he can pull it out whenever you need it. Also, consider using the shapeshifting ability from PHBII, the druid gains flat combat...

I'm not a big fan of using a laptop as a player, I prefer rolling my own dice, having a hardcopy character sheet with notes on paper. I do, however, try to keep an electronic copy of my character up to date with levels skills and etc should I lose my sheet. For dming though, I couldn't do my...

Personally, I don't mind the skill points each class gets. I think dropping the HD might be a bit much because the class does only get medium armor, I know they could multiclass, but they shouldn't have to. Have you play tested the class before trying to modify it? I will agree that the full...

Eberron uses elementals to power the vessels that exist in its world. I suggest throwing an air or water elemental on the gnomish ship to give them greater maniuverability and speed. Maybe have their artiliery be magical or alchemical (refer to Heroes of Battle). They'd likely also have a spell...
