    Vin Diesel plays D&D

    For me, it's more of a source of humor. DnD has always been associated with 'geeks'. It's funny now that Vin Diesel, who isn't exactly the image of 'geeky', now admits he buys DnD stuff. It's more of a joke on how all those people who stereotype DnD are off base.

    The Monk's Hit Dice Should Be a d8! [Rant]

    If you are talking about Ki Strike, then that +3 doesn't add to hit or damage, it only applies when striking creatures with DR.

    (OT) Monte Cook's most recent rant.....

    The reason we don't know all these things is because we don't have to. Why would I need to know how to skin a deer with a grocery store right down the street? Why should I be expected to build a car when car companies can do it for me? Basically, every person is knowledgable in whatever field...

    Book Covers (Damage Control)

    I use them for my school books, and they are very good. However, like you said, the standard size won't be too good, but jumbo sized should work. Eventually the corners of the sock tear away, though.

    Squegees? err... I mean, delete me!

    Well, for one, your campaign world has a LOT of adventuring types. Fighters and sorcerors fall from trees, apparently. In most campaing worlds, army grunts are warriors (or even commoners), and adventuring classes are very rare on the battlefield. Your campaign, do what you want, but I'm just...

    TPK or not TPK

    I would have given them a week before the prophecy is fulfilled. They set it in motion, but it will take time before the town is burned to the ground. That gives them a week to be smart enough to nominate themselves to the council :)

    Hide Life - where to hide it?

    Encasing it in lead and hiding in in an allied place sounds like hte best idea. The lead will defeat all divinations, and even if they do find out where it is by some chance, your buddies can protect it for you.

    Psionic Combat

    If you are just trying to kill what you are fighting (which is a lot of the time), then psionic combat is a waste. Why do 1d2 Wisdom damage instead of 5d6 real damage? Against other psionic creatures (particularly monsters), it's more of a vulnerability than an advantage. You might be able to...

    Greatest Hero of All Time (Preliminary Research before Poll)

    Gandalf. Frodo is a good choice too though.

    Ideal Party Make-up.

    1. Well, you need a tank. Give me a dwarf with a decent strength, a high con, slap some full plate on him and shove him in front. 2. Arcane support. A Wizard/Loremaster would do well here. 3. Healing. Can't get enough, a straight classes cleric with the Healing and Protection domains...

    New Epic Magic Item - Tiger Amulet

    By my calculations, it would cost roughly 1.3 million gp. That's without the transformation part, or the DR. 144,000gp for the +12 Str. 36,000gp for +6 Con 16,000gp for +4 Dex 450,000 for +15 natural armor ____________ 646,000 x2 (slotless) __________ 1,292,000gp I'm guessing with the damage...

    how old are you?

    I'm 15. Still, it seems like there are too few of us young'uns.

    +2 Flaming, Shocking, Frezzing Great Axe

    I've heard it was the Sage, when this debate was brought up on a different board, at a different time. Either way, I think it's silly. This brings up lots of complications, such as... If a person or monster managed to get multiple arms (I'm not quite sure how, but I'm sure others know) and...

    Mass Combat: Militray Tactics Old and New!

    Infantry in groups is suicide. One fireball would kill 20, 30, 50 men at a time. I think it is best to think of mass combat in DnD through a World War I slant. Think of what happened in World War I when an army charged an entrenched army with machine guns. Now, imagine an army charging a...

    Paladin's mount question

    DM's call. There isn't any errata on it, but conflicting text. The text says it adds to the natural armor, but the table doens't have a + like all the others.

    Building a stronghold on shoestring budget

    A lyre of building (Is that hte name? It's a Lyre or something) is always nice. The bard could play it for a while, and after a few months you could eventually have your stronghold up.

    Best things done on the roll of a one.

    I once saw a player have his character commit suicide by stabbing himself, the DM asked for an attack roll.... It was a 1. It was beautiful.

    Mage of the Arcane Order, Incantrix or Guild Mage of Waterdeep?

    May I suggest Loremaster, a very good PrC for Diviners.

    Min/Max a Ranger

    Animal companions don't really mean much to a ranger. They only get 10 HD worth at level 20, which is neglible.
