Basically, it's all coming down to player skill/deviousness at this point. There are some great wizard strategies (forcecage, contingency, ect.) and counters by the monk (ring with disentegrate or helm of teleportation, ect). No 2 players will be 100% even when it comes to skill, so that's...

I've given the party an assload of cash without meaning to. They met a real butt hole of a noble and decided to rob him after he gloated over the spoils which he took from the towns people in heavy taxes. Well, they find out he's going to be away so they sneak into his manor and find the...

(I didn't read through a lot of the replies, so if I repeat what someone else said.. or somesuch.. well, you know..) When mass battles happen in my game, I use a few factors to figure out the outcome. First off, there's the "God of War". Whoever he/she favors that day, is most often the...

Gonna stick with human. If I made a warforged.. well, no.. I can't do it! No warforged! I'd have to spend at least 1 game with a LE warforge who considered humans/demihumans "meatbags" and just wanted to slaughter (think HK-47 from KotOR). Plus, the healing spells of a cleric asn't as...

[While not a member of EN, seeing as how he's on the Horde side.. I figured I'd post Ascent's background anyway. Afterall, before he became Forsaken, Gregory was a good guy and mighta had a place in EN as a human warrior. Yeah, I know, character's fuled by tragedy are common.. but in a 'land...

Change that around, and it spells... Jeanu Di'asshat! HAHAHA LOL OMG PWN! (it's 3:40 am, what do you expect?!??!!!11eleventyone1!)

I pretty much sold everything on Kassanna and retired her. All she has left is a sexy robe, and a philosipher's stone to do arcanite transmutes for cash or any guildies that need one. Nothing personal in that, she's just never going to be played again. I also deleted Huwiik and Nymerik. Sold...

There are 3 kinds of people in my campaigns, and I'll give a few examples of each. 1. Mundane -The farmers, blacksmiths, NPC classes from the DMG, general town folk, and cannon fodder (the hobgoblin right out of the MM, for example). What do they get: Standard, out of the book stats, a few...

What in the blue hell is that?! I never really got into BoVD or BoED, but that lone statement is enough to make me want to check that book out. That's just.. f***ing disturbing.

We did have a 'team' in one of our parties to take care of high level wizards that consisted of a sorcerer and a monk. Any time we fought casting baddies, these 2 would take care of him and the rest of us would mop up the minions.

My ex-group from Florida and I actually had this debate and all spenk like 2 weeks playtesting little tournaments from level 20 monks and level 20 wizards. We each got to make 1 of each. It was PHB and DMG only. There were 4 different 'arenas' and once a combat started, there was no leaving...

Does anyone have gritty, more realistic ways to run hand-to-hand melee combat? I know people prefer to think of martial arts as seen in the recent movies, and that's all well and good. However, being a huge fan with an interest in martial arts for a good many years now, I'd like to see a more...

...good idea! Plus, it'll make for great proppage for games!

Why did it shock him so much and why end the game over it? I would have expeced something like that.. though, maybe not through a 20th story window. That added a little.. gusto, but nothing wrong with that. Why end the game?

Yeah, my friends are annoyed by me doing that too. They all thing RotS was the best movie ever (except for Empire Strikes Back) and want to hang on Lucas' behind for the rest of eternity. However, hear me out.. There's a reason this killed it for me. Like the DAY BEFORE I saw RotS, I was...

If talking to my Daughter like Mr. Mackey annoys her enough that she stays away from boys til she's 20, then I'm all for it! Sadly, it just doesn't work that way.. *sobs* Just 19 more years of sitting on my porch with a shotgun in an old rocking chair for me.....

Breaking wind, stinkin' a bit, eating weird stuff, I don't mind any of that. If they're there to have fun and play, I can look past faults. It's the people that suck because they don't even try that I can't stand. Two real quick stories: I got kicked out of a game once, because the guys I...

It can sometimes work against you, but if you know your players really well and know the things that are deep-seeded within them, it can come out playing. For example, there's a good friend of mine that usually always played a paladin (recently, he's branching out into other kinds of...

I've been a huge fan of Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance for many many years. When Eberron came out, I gave it a shot and liked what I found. It moved away from typical DnD, but still kept something that makes DnD into DnD.. if you can see what I'm saying. I love all three settings for...

Is there a better PrC than Radiant Servant of Pelor that I could be looking towards? Ur-Priest seemed kinda.. I dunno, loop-holish? I could do some serious damage if I could capture the right kind of Outsider. No no *smacks self*. I want to play a good-aligned guy! Back away from the...
