I think HS is right, you need some readin' edumacshun Robbie. I already addressed the exclusivity claim you're attributing to me. And I'm shocked that you would advocate welfare over work. At least we can agree on spreading falsehoods and misrepresentations about (un)employment. It does suck...

I didn't assign any moral value to my comments. Maybe a hint of ethical value. But it is not that I find it "evil" or "unethical" to make one's money while paying others the exact minimum you are allowed to pay them. It find it disingenuous to try to tell people that everyone can do what he's...

No other options? Yes, certainly. There's a very old addage: "The world needs ditch diggers." Because that was considered the worst job at its time. And it says more than it seems to. While a single person has the opportunity to make something of themself, it is also true that everyone can't...

Well, rejoice, because karma bit me in the ass as I got the 'reward' of not having to work for my employer anymore yesterday. Complete blindside, and only because I'm the 'new guy' with a mere 4.5 years with the company...

Eh, my average for watching anything sits at about a week.

Looking for feedback on my 5E conversions of new rules introduced in Paizo's Adventure Path Player's Guide for Curse of the Crimson Throne. Anything too weak or powerful compared to the latest playtest document? Anything that could be made more interesting?

It's also going to be shown at 300 theaters in the US on Monday the 25th. Edit: If they were going to screen it in Woodridge, IL on the 23rd, why'd they pick a crappy Cinemark theater? Hollywood Boulevard Theater (which has a full service kitchen, bar, and in-theater waitstaff, plus comfy...

But it's relevant because you are, admitedly, using a ridiculous example that will not come up in actual gameplay. You stated originally that a Fighter could destory a whole village of peasants blindfolded and there was nothing they could do to defend against it. Now you've shifted goalposts to...

I'm with you. And the villagers would need only one tactic to keep from getting slaughtered. Sure, the 1st Level Fighter would get the jump on them, kill a couple villagers, maybe 3 if he had surprise. But then the rest move away from the murderous Fighter (either disengage or just move) and...

It's not automatic. It's if you specifically train yourself to take advantage of that. Just like the current fighting style isn't automatic to all Fighters, not even all two-handed weapon Fighters (as someone pointed out they could choose Defense or Protection), just those who specifically train...

Ok, with your gun analogy, are you then saying you can't learn anything from your miss? Adjust your next shot based on factors that made you miss the first time? Are you saying that a "miss" in D&D must be "utter and total failure that cannot be learned from" for you to be happy with it? Edit...

Are those who are opposed to damage on a miss opposed to any benefit from a miss? What if the miss generated a damage bonus on your next attack against the same target equal to your Strength bonus?

Don't discount the value of free government cheese! Besides, we all know that getting fired publicly leads to your own reality show, so he won't be unemployed for long.

I thought his reward was not having to work at Walmart anymore...

All of the above, as DM.

I misunderstood the distinction then, thanks for clarifying. I would hope that the MM page on medusa covers the real-world mythology and adds other ideas for different takes.

The scary thing is that everyone thinks these stories are scary. Let me help you out: EVERYTHING IS DIRTIER, GERMIER, AND HAS GROSSER STUFF IN IT THAN YOU WOULD THINK. Thank you, now go wash your hands.

I don't think its ridiculous. I agree that a frank discussion is needed. And the times this has happened in my games it usually boils down to the player feeling I didn't communicate the nature of the creatures in my campaign world. The players rely heavily on the DM to relay the specifics of his...

I've not commented particularly on this, but since you keep trotting it out... The 12% to 99% change is comparing an opt-in country (Germany) at 12% to an opt-out country (Austria) at 99%. That's a HUGE swing in favor of opt-out, not opt-in! And it has nothing to do with a huge change in human...

I fear though that if they listen to every vocal minority that we would have no rules left. That would do the game the ultimate disservice. I hope that they come up with multiple fighting styles for each "configuration" of weapon(s) and/or shield. That way you'll be able to drop the automatic...
