    Star Wars: We Joined the Rebellion for This?!

    Karr replies, "Misunderstanding. I heard them arguing, I offered to help, and then that unpleasant fellow told this Rodian to shoot me." Karr releases his hold on the Rodian, helps him up, and dusts off his jacket. "Eh, sorry about the fisticuffs. I get a bit testy when people reach for...

    Awright, I'll run with the misunderstanding.

    Star Wars: We Joined the Rebellion for This?! OOC

    Thanks for the listing :) As for the Rodian struggle... Ahem. I wanted to use the "damage your opponent" option of the grapple rules, i.e. take -4 on my grapple check in order to do damage as though I made an unarmed strike (page 170)- not attack the guy with a normal attack (page 171)...

    AMG, would you mind listing the active characters in your post in the character thread (http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=3585063 for convenience)? It would help me in the future to avoid mentioning ex-PCs like Dvarik :)

    Heh. I may have underestimated this Rodian fellow. I really was hoping for a conversation instead of a brawl, but hey, c'est la vie.

    Curses - I was hoping you'd goofed and given him an attack of opportunity when he didn't deserve one :( That punch REALLY HURT!

    "Hayze. Would you be happier if I merely stood here and let him shoot me?"

    Star Wars: We Joined the Rebellion for This?!

    OOC: Dang, the Rodian knows Martial Arts? THAT I did not expect! Oh, well, I'll use the Damage Opponent grapple option with *my* Martial Arts attack. Puffing from the (extremely well-placed) punch, Karr looks down at the Rodian and says, "We've definitely gotten off on the wrong foot here!"...

    Naval combat rules

    I really doubt that an existing finished product counts as "raw material" for the purposes of the spell. I probably wouldn't allow it in any game I ran unless someone either pointed out an example of Fabricate using, e.g. swords as the raw material to make nails or an example of another 5th...

    Collaborative Cave #2 - Updated map (see 1st post) - Now doing room assignment

    If you can control a Sphere of Annihilation reliably, I seriously doubt that you need a catwalk to navigate this cavern - Overland Flight, Fly, Spider Climb, and even Levitate would all negate the need for a catwalk. That said, it would be nice for the hapless PCs to have a catwalk available :)

    ... That makes no sense at all.

    Erhm, how will Fabricate sink a ship?

    Star Wars: We Joined the Rebellion for This?!

    OOC: Does the Coruscanti seem to be armed? Either way, start a grapple with the Rodian. I envision it something like this, if things go my way: As the Coruscanti utters the word "shoot", Karr bursts into movement. Stepping sideways into a fighting stance and drawing a knife, he leans...

    Naval combat rules

    Well, I wasn't suggesting that you try to set the outer hull on fire - I suggested targeting the sails and rigging and stuff on deck. Those would start up a big enough fire to burn the ship to the waterline. As to getting someone to 'fix' D&D's poor modeling of this type of thing...yes, it...

    Naval combat rules

    I call BS on Stormwrack's rules. Fire is much deadlier to a ship of timber, canvas, and rope than it implies - with or without powder magazines. Set a sail on fire, watch it spread to the entire ship, then enjoy the light show as it burns to the waterline. Using Fireball to destroy a...

    Naval combat rules

    I have to disagree the OP's assessment of the Fireball wand. You don't rely on the Fireball to damage the hull, you use it to light up the sails and rigging. A fireball or two may not fell the mainmast, but it sure as heck will start a big enough fire - and kill enough crew - that the ship...

    Coming back out from the 'fresher, Karr looks again at the Rodian and the Coruscanti. He approaches the table and says with an apologetic smile, "Pardon the interruption, but I thought I heard you mention something about some business difficulties, and I might be able to help you." OOC...

    Wizards R&D Seminar at GenCon 2007

    Huh? I was reading the thread, and this seemed glaringly out of place. Who is casting aspersions?

    Star Wars: We Joined the Rebellion for This?!

    Karr nods in response to Cyd's query and whispers, "Take Dvarik with you." Standing up, Karr says in normal tones, "I'll be back in a moment." He glances around to locate the restrooms, then starts walking over to them. Ankh: As he walks, Karr tries to figure out which table the Coruscanti...
