That is why you send a single man as a scout, not a big group. I agree it should be harder for a group of people sneaking than for a single person. what I don't like is if you have to make to many rolls even if you should make it the more rolls you have to make the more likelyhood of a 1 or...

I've got about 15 pdf's all of them free. It's official I'm a bottom feeder. I'm scum. That's it after I pay this months bills I'm going to buy something anything at this point I owe it to the designers

and another thing readying an action for someone to cast a spell is just silly. The rules as written say you can take a 5' step and cast a spell no prob, as I said silly and metagamy. If you're in a fight with someone and they're trying to do you bad you're not going to sit there while they...

I think you're all forgetting that casting a spell while someone is in your face means someone in the party messed up or someone on the other side did good. It's not an automatic right that you get to cast spells. If a fighter type gets in a spellcasters face good for him. He should've never...

My opinion they are to unbalacing and I would make them cost a lot. however If the player persists I'd say fine and make sure the next fight they take on a hoard of goggles of true strike flying in with tower shields at stupid long ranges they'd get off an attack put up the shields cast true...

I'd say no. Now as for the players paying attention to which AC someone was yes there's a little metagaming going on but I write that off as they are fighting that individual and learning how he fights/moves. With that in mind someone could use knowledge tactics to get a rough idea how...

I was thinking maybe adding the BAB of the enemy to the check, but that would create some problems too: first of all, it basically means that no matter what level the caster is, it will always be as difficult to cast a spell of a given level if he faces a fighter of the same level; second, it...

I really like your eschew materials aspect

So I was thinking about the stealth rules and the way they work. I was thinking that since several people have to make several rolls it's just a matter of time until someone fails not because the party isn't good at sneaking but because the odds go up so high so fast. So my idea on how to fix...

mechanically I can make the stats for a character in 5 to 10 minutes add an extra 5-10 for every two levels. conceptwise it takes a while for it to grok but I think that's just because back in the day we just wanted to play we didn't need a "motivation"

They don't NEED a cleric but like many here have said it helps. This is proven even within your own mini rant by the party either buying healing or basically hiring a cleric to come along and effectivly be the tag along cleric. Now Should a player have to play this no but most modules expect...

currently I'm more player than Gm but shortly before we started Mutants and Masterminds I was the Gm for two different group and soon I will be again. So I voted player and Gm.

well I'm happy to say we lost to someone who goes by the handle gospog. That is some serious arcane game knowledge. Hope he knows that Torg is actually returning go check out the west end site :D

I'm interested in arcana unearthed p.s. I really like your quick item selection do you guys mind if I talk you up at the D&D meetup today

Man what are you people doing with your books. I always hear someone saying this or that isn't any good (usually the binding) and I just don't have these problems. maybe you guys are just getting to use them a lot more than me. incidentally I didn't vote because I don't really care if its...

I so wanted to be a d12 but it turns out I'm a d8 eh that works too

Apparantly I'm outnumbered but I gotta agree with a few of my fellow posters. I just can't picture it good in my minds eye. If dinosaurs were around in any kind of numbers like we know them all of society would have to change to keep them away from towns. buildings would have to be stronger...

2 Words for you Arcana Evolved. Imagine someone taking one of the core books that everyone at the table references about every round and getting another book that useful. A book (Arcana Unearthed) with new classes, races, different magic, and a background world. Now imagine that book created...

Rel I think this is the best answer to player taunting.

I'd prefer names on the back so players can see what they killed but if it's just a choice of yea or nea I gotta go with nea.
