Ever read Knights of the Dinner Table? I forgot the name of one of the characters in there, but he's an employee of Gary Jackson Inc. whenever he games anywhere, if his players complain he puts them in there place with some kind of penalty. Whatever method you choose (I recommend the 30 point...

How are the PCs doing otherwise? Are they well equipped? If they are, go ahead and give them stuff they can't use. The can still possibly sell it, although I would allow destroying evil items to give them some extra XP (maybe 1/25 the GP value?). If the PCs are struggling to get by...you...

First you need to be able to cast 2nd level arcane and 2nd level divine spells, so with a normal PC race with no special abilities (like dragons who cast spells as sorcerers) the earliest you can do that is level 6 with a Clr3/Wiz3. Once you gain MT levels your spellcasting ability from both...

What are the benefits to two weapon fighting with a double weapon? Is it just the flexability of having either two weapons or a two handed weapon? I need to know this for an upcoming character.

Wow, what a touchy subject. I read the first and last page leading up to this post. As I see it, there are two arguements here: 1) is the act a Chaotic, and or Evil act, and 2) What should your DM do. At first these two may seem related, but I would hold that there not. Here's my peice: I've...

if you TWF with a double weapon, is that restriction still there? e.g. if I have a double sword and I power attack for 2 then do I roll 1d8 +2 +STR and 1d8 + 2 +1/2STR assuming successful attacks, or is the off hand attack 1d8 +1/2 Str?

ok, now step two is to decide how you want to play him (or her). How do you see your mage? Is he constantly looking for the next biggest Fireball spell, or is he the kind of guy that prefers his charmed friends to do his dirty work? Is he an anti-social Necromancer, or a flambouant Enchanter...

I can't believe that Tasha's Hidious Laughter isn't on this list: It either needs a 1d4 round duration like it did in 3.0, or the target needs a will save every round, just like hold person. My PCs have been using this on everything they come across, and much prefer it to Hold Person. With...

Ok, so I'm thinking of making a monk build based on using the Flying kick feat just about every round (and screaming Hee-Ya! everytime I roll), At level 9, I'll be a 2nd level Drunken Master with the stagger class ability that lets me charge in not-so-straight lines. I'll have the following...

What I'm trying to do is figure out a way that I can charge the same opponent each round so I can make use of the feat "Flying Kick" from CW. I don't mind if I provoke an AOO to do it (in fact I'd like to because of my "Defensive throw" feat).

Can you make use of your spring attack feat during a charge: The text says during an attack action you may move up to your speed... I would think that the line refers to a standard attack action, but I hope there is some way to charge past someone.

One of my players is moving to China, and it will be difficult (read=impossible) for him to play in our weekend games. I was wondering if there is a way to play online. I remember being in a chat room where you could type in roll a d20 or something like that and it would assign a random number...

You can do this as a third level monk of any race: Level Feat 1 Stunning Fist 2 Combat Reflexes 3 Hold the line Whenever you are charged, stunning fist the bastard with the AOO he just incurred, if he fails his save he loses the...

in short: Yes In the player's guide to Forgotten Realms within the first few pages they list what material is compatable, and they sight UE as one of the books that is pretty current. But unless any of the available material is directly covered by the PGFR then it is still legit

I like zombie movies...What I do with all my zombies is give them the Improved Grapple Feat, and a special attack that if they pin a character they deal automatic bite damage based on their size. Then I send about 20 at the PCs at a time. As soon as one PC is grappled then the rest of the...

I'm playing a CN right now, and I play him like a rock star too. The one time that I did something totally out of character was when I risked my own life to save the life of my party members against an overwhelming horde: We were traveling in a sewer when our monk walked right into a...

and Now it's my understanding that if I put this on a dominated person, they don't need to do what their controller wants them to for the duration of Protection from Evil, but when that spell ends then they carry on. So what happened in game was the spell was cast on someone who was just...

I shot a crossbow at a Ren fair. That damn thing kicked like a shotgun. My shot went about 4ft high and the target was only 20ft away. But then again I was at -4 for non-proficiency ;)

I wouldn't do this for just this kind of situation: This will stop all but the untrained from doing any of these cool combat actions. Most players are downright fearful of provoking an AOO (as well they should be) but there are a few special situations where your PCs will take one because...

Uhh, I have no experience at all with Dragon PCs or the Draconian or even the DragonLance setting... I know a little about making a finesse fighter though. In my experiance a finesse fighter needs a lot of help before he's ready to take on that powerattacking tank that most fighters are. If...
