As you can see in modern pictures of the scene of the battle, to the left you had some mountains - not exactly cliff faces, but certainly too difficult for an army to pass through on any sort of time table. On the right was the water, where a highway runs now.

If the sorrow is indirect, it can't really be called a Crown of Endless Sorrow. Call it what it is, a [-]Rod[/-] Crown of Epic Rulership.

Flanges would be, at the most optimistic, slashing damage like a sword. Not all maces are flanged, however, and the images presented in the PHB don't really suggest any sort of piercing or slashing effect, just protruding metal bulges.

According to the Forgotten Realms wiki, the Lower Dark is 10 miles deep and lower. The first three miles are the Upper Dark, where not much exists but kobolds and goblins and such. Three to ten miles down is the Middle Dark, where most cities and Underdark dwellers live.

I'm aware of the difference between the Prime Material and Baator.

As I mentioned, a club needs only be wrapped at the handle to function as a club. Other treatments typically include fire hardening, etching, or shaping. None of which really improve the club in any meaningful fashion, but certainly make it more aesthetically pleasing and (typically) a little...

Certainly no sorrow there.

In my Faerun setting, the Underdark connects to the first layer of Hell by way of a tunnel system. It was the only way, I thought at the time, to account for such an increase in the CR of creatures in the area. Nothing was environmentally dangerous enough to warrant it, and there is so much...

A club, or cudgel, is a wooden stick that is typically thicker at one end. A mace is never fully wooden (except in Billiards), and typically possesses a flanged or spiked metal head. A crude club can be pulled from a tree and wrapped on one end in leather or cloth to protect the hand. A...

Not a lot of flexibility is required for proficient grappling. It can definitely help, but it isn't necessary in the majority of situations.

Have you examined the 3.5 Psionics system?

Sure, I get that. However, if you have to take a feat to gain access to Exotic Weapons, and you have to take a feat to gain access to Exotic ++ weapons, why would you take the feat for Exotic Weapons? Is it a Feat chain?

Treat as a two handed War Fan, 1d10, 20/x3 crit, when the fan is first brought into melee, the wielder may attempt a Bluff check against an opponent's Sense Motive check. If the wielder wins the contest, he adds a +4 bonus to the attack roll for his first round.

In your proposal, what would be the purpose of Exotic weapons, if there were Exotic++ weapons that dealt more damage and had more/better effects?

Conan himself wasn't much more than level 8 (D&D terms) maximum. I could potentially field arguments for lv12, but I'd be playing Devil's Advocate for omgmyfavoritefantastyherolevel20lol. I like Conan for it's focus on the fantastically mundane. That level of play has always my favorite...

He could just use a CL21 or better Dimension Door or Teleport scroll. He could use a liberal interpretation of "and so forth", and thereby count each small creature as only 1/2 a medium creature, and then he'd only need a CL18 or better scroll. Caster Level check is easy to make.

Completely aside from the central argument; a sword that could extend indefinitely at the speed of light would bypass all forms of DR. Theoretically, since it would have effectively infinite mass and effectively infinite energy at the time of expansion, it would superheat the area that it...

Wait, what? What action is he readying? What are the conditions for his ready? I don't see a way for a readied action to be of use in this scenario.

Regardless, you can't Polymorph into a creature with more HD than you have.
