    Charging and AoO's

    But not moving into said square, yes?

    Charging and AoO's

    That's how the other person is running it, as I understand it. Since the movement brought them into the threatened area, they get the AoO. An example from the other team (so to speak): a creature charges you while you have a reach weapon. You get the AoO when it enters your threatened area...

    Any Offical Answer on wether Potions can be Delivered via "The Other End"

    Certain survival techniques teach running water up the rectum if it can't be ingested any other way (unconscious, etc). Keeps them alive a bit longer. Not sure if enough of the potion will get 'absorbed' to do the job though.

    Charging and AoO's

    I'm slightly confused. The rules say that a charge doesn't generate an AoO. However, I'm hearing that the charge is a separate action from the movement of the charge. Supposedly, the movement from charging still generates an AoO. Is this true?

    Do your players hate your house rules?

    I only seem to have one person who doesn't like the house rules, but he's the power gamer of the group. He's used to the rules fitting a certain way and can't figure out how to manipulate the newer rules.

    D&D is its own Genre of Fantasy?

    Yep, at least the game is. The fiction written for the game doesn't usually follow the gaming rules, so I can't say much for them. The game itself definitely has its own feel and logic.

    rapid shot + TWF = ?

    Star Wars d20 did this rather often, especially for the droideka droids. You get 2 extra attacks with a -4 to all attacks.

    Rolling a d20 for Defense

    Been playing this way for a few years. It works very well. It does slow down combat a but, but it adds more suspense to combat. We also rule that: 1) a natural 20 on a defense roll means the attack automatically misses, except for a natural 20 attack roll, in which... 2) If both attacker and...

    Thanks. Knew there was a Russell in there somewhere...

    Instating Gun Kata into D20

    Haven't seen the movie, although it is on my net-flix list. :] One thought might be to use pre-loaded revolver cylinders on a belt. As the cynlider assembly pops out (some are removable with one hand, and it is a fantasy setting anyway) the character slides the pistol into a wiating cylinder...

    Instating Gun Kata into D20

    One place to look might be the movie 'the quick and the dead'. Kurt Russel's character does some smoothing shooting at the end you might like. A member on the wizards site developed a gunslinger character class you might also be interested in. The Dragon Star OGL game has the Gun Dancer PrC...

    How much noise does a lightning bolt make?

    I think that's a bit more than noticable, given how clear it was to hear compared to the yelling technician at the end of the clip.

    Why can't PRC's do the opposite? Maybe that's why they touch a nerve.

    Thing is, PrC's are generally designed because someone wants to expand on a given niche. Mage/thief, fighter/mage, etc. As described by dragon magazine, a character taking levels in a 10 level prc is defining his career (as opposed to 'side stepping' with a 5 level PrC). This doesn't account for...

    Don't take them if you don't want to be pigeon hole'd?

    What does 'Co-ordinated Shot' from Heros of Battle do?

    Yea yea, my memory sucks... :lol:

    How much noise does a lightning bolt make?

    Probably something similar to a high caliber munitions piece. Anything that can fry a human that quickly is doing the same to the airalong the line.

    The advantages/disadvantages of making an 'untouchable'?

    What does 'Co-ordinated Shot' from Heros of Battle do?

    Did that. The problem was a player who constantly changed his mind about things, usually after having been beaten in someway. Disturbed the game enough with just the changes he wanted, but then I'd have to dig through creative interpretations as well (torpedos are ranged attacks, so I can...

    Why are Lycanthropes less virulent now?

    But by this standard everyone should be dead from AIDS, polio, the common cold, etc. The viral population explosion doesn't account for weres being killed off by a much greater 'normal' population. It's easier in D&D to kill werewolves than in the myths or stories. Any village with torches or...
