    I can't WAIT for this month's character builder update!

    Well stop teasing us already and provide the link to your custom layout. I for one, am interested! :D

    Is Paizo's Pathfinder really compatible with 3.5?

    3.0 and 3.5 were pretty compatible; you could make the same arguments people are offering here for 3.5 to PFRPG for 3.0 to 3.5. But me and the good capn here can't have been the only people to find said "compatibility" intensely irritating. How many times did things need to be double checked...

    Forced Movement and Saving Throws

    I think it is fairly established that when trying to push someone into a pit or over a precipice using Forced Movement the target gets a Save to fall Prone instead. What about others types of hurtful terrain? Pool of acid? River of lava? Just regular river? Wall of Fire? Cloud of Daggers? When...

    Slow and other Movement types

    Thanks! XP for the answer! I'd have looked it up but no books when I'm at work. :)

    Slow and other Movement types

    Quick and dirty question here: how does the Slowed condition interact with other types of movement, such as Swim, Burrow, or Climb? What about Teleport? Thanks! :)

    help me out here...what to play the first time

    Actually, while their powers are Divine in nature, an Invoker is a Controller. Which leaves your group sans-Defender. If you're looking to play a Fighter/Mage type, a Swordmage makes a fairly decent fit. Likewise, you could try making use of 4E's multiclassing rules and the Wizard PP that is...

    Epic Fail for shared imaginings

    Perhaps somewhat tangential to this discussion but ... Once, while waiting in a fast food line with my wife and a friend, all three of us witnessed a hit-and-run car accident. This truck plowed into this car from behind, and after the passenger got out and looked at the car they had struck...

    CB updating dragon articles

    Right, so if you check the sources currently in the CB, you'll see it goes to Dragon 371 right now. Unfortunately for your player, the Shadar-Kai and Spiked Chain Training feats show up in Dragon 372. Next month will be a good month for your friend, however. ;)

    Bardic Music bonus feat?

    Blatant speculation: Bard's will get something like a Divine characters Channel Divinity feats with each feat representing a song/type of music. Only one per encounter, but a large pool of possible powers to fill the encounter slot. Maybe Words of Friendship are a default ability that also goes...

    My piazo problmes Forked Thread: Another Cease and Desist Letter: 4E Powercards

    My friend has sat next to me with a copy of the OGL PHB and DMG for several years now. Paizo could surely have printed out the same; if the complaint is that the SRD ruleset isn't complete, they could simply add in the missing pieces as they no doubt are having to do with Pathfinder. Add some...

    My piazo problmes Forked Thread: Another Cease and Desist Letter: 4E Powercards

    Hrms. IANAL but as far as I know the OGL is completely non-revocable, so that shouldn't have been an issue. Any lawyers reading, feel free to jump in here and tell us how it is.

    Siege at Bodrin's Watch DM question *potential spoilers*

    Hey guys. It looks like the question has already been answered, but in case anyone is wondering I'm trying to get together a list of notes to enhance the continuity between the SoW modules over on the Gleemax boards. I've written up some notes for the first three so far, and a few others are...

    My piazo problmes Forked Thread: Another Cease and Desist Letter: 4E Powercards

    Maybe it just comes down to differing regional dialects then? I've never had trouble understanding WotCian. I *thought* I grokked Paizoese but ever since Pathfinder it's just sounded like Greek. :P

    My piazo problmes Forked Thread: Another Cease and Desist Letter: 4E Powercards

    I understand what you're saying Zil, but I don't think it actually supports the argument you're making. They could have stayed with 3.5 and continued to actively support it as long as they want ... the OGL cannot be revoked. Instead, Pathfinder sets out to set a new course, separate and distinct...

    My piazo problmes Forked Thread: Another Cease and Desist Letter: 4E Powercards

    And that right there is the rub for me and my group. When we switched from 3.0 to 3.5 there was a lot of grumbling and grousing, even though I think most of us accepted the reasons for the switch. But even to this day we still find odd rules changes tucked away in subheading and side paragraphs...

    Scales of War DM Notes

    Hey everyone, I've begun compiling a set of DM notes for personal use for my upcoming SoW campaign (with the intent to look for areas were A) the modules break down and could use some touchup and B) to note areas where foreshadowing of future modules could be integrated) and have begun posting...

    Barbarian fixed?

    I *think* one of the devs posted saying that the AC was off one point, suggesting it SHOULD be one higher, which would align well with using Con as an AC stat. FYI. :)

    Forked Thread: Most Memorable PC Kill

    I have a friend who had just died, losing a rather high level (and very powerful) Cleric way back when during a run through Lord of the Iron Fortress (this was pre-3.5 days). His new character was going to be another Cleric, perhaps a testament to this particular friend's power gaming...

    Double Weapons fixed?

    Avin, a spiked chain isn't a double weapon, so I suppose between the two choices given it is number 1. Your player is maybe thinking about the spiked chain mastery feat in this month's issue of Dragon, that lets you treat the spiked chain as a double weapon. That's a bonus for the feat though...
