    "The Complete Guide To Drow" is Wonderfully Hideously Stupidly Bad! Buy it!

    Yes, yes, and I am quite aware that both your ego and your Love of Elves know no bounds :D. So how about it? As is, it is, I admit, on the snarky side. I also think that it's helpful -- it's clearly not just a throw-away dismissal of the book in question. People here seem to appreciate it...

    "The Complete Guide To Drow" is Wonderfully Hideously Stupidly Bad! Buy it!

    Krug -- I was going to wait for comments and constructive criticism, but there doesn't seem to be any :). I'll post it this afternoon.

    "The Complete Guide To Drow" is Wonderfully Hideously Stupidly Bad! Buy it!

    The Review I'm not sure how to post this as an Official Review, but I'm going to look into it. Meanwhile, I'll post it here, and ask for comments. If you see any grammar or spelling screwups, let me know! ----------------- Back in the day, as we old-timers say, there was 2E. I don’t think...

    "The Complete Guide To Drow" is Wonderfully Hideously Stupidly Bad! Buy it!

    Why do you sound so defensive, Ranger? :D If it's that easy to get something published through Natural 20 -- that is, you don't actually have to write something good -- maybe it won't be so tough to get my Against The Elves module published after all. Let me know if you'd be interested :).

    Piratecat -- yeah, I'm really only interested in Feng Shui at this point, though if there's a slot in The League I'd be up for it, just so I can torment Mr. Morrow :). ARE there any slots in Feng Shui for a Jack Burton-like character? I think they're all filled up.

    (Mongoose) Ultimate Feats

    Yeah, exactly what I was thinking of. I'm going to have to dig that up again -- there was some nifty stuff in there. Anyone have the link? I can't see spending 40 bucks for a huge melange of often unplaytested-feats that were just borrowed from a bunch of random other places without some sort of...

    "The Complete Guide To Drow" is Wonderfully Hideously Stupidly Bad! Buy it!

    Prereqs? Yeah, right. I don't recall seeing any prepreqs, except for Spell Resistance -- the prereq is SR12+. That's probably the most broken feat, since they allow it to stack. Take it four times as a drow and have SR equal to 26+ your level. Walk around pretending you're Drizzt The Golem, as...

    (Mongoose) Ultimate Feats

    Is there a rating-system for feats, so that a DM can easily pick out which ones are uber-twink only?

    Which D&D author/designer do you like best?

    Whoever just wrote the Complete Guide To Drow (Natural 20 Press) made me wet my pants. That has to count for something.

    [Rev] Spells Slated to be Revised

    Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re Blah blah blah, and furthermore, blah. Yeah, elves really suck -- that's why no one plays them in 3E. Poor little guys. My heart, it bleeds.

    "The Complete Guide To Drow" is Wonderfully Hideously Stupidly Bad! Buy it!

    I picked up Natural 20's Complete Guide To Drow and I have to say that it is a brilliant descendant of that 2E splatbook we all know and love, "The Complete Book Of Elves". You know, the one with elven plate mail (that you could cast spells in), the Bladesinger, and elven artificial limbs...

    Phantom Feat

    No offense, but both suggestions are . . . how shall I put this? Lacking in common sense. Yeah, that's it. The original post suggested that the PrC take feats that really aren't feats but they count as feats even though the character wouldn't be able to actually do the things listed in the...

    ENboards Boston Game Day V sign-up! Come throw down some dice at Piratecat's house!

    Did I sign up too late to get included in Feng Shui? I was thinking about playing a Jack Burton ala "Big Trouble in Little China" character -- walking around confused and pissed off as both friends and enemies bounce off walls -- with naught but my superhuman reflexes, good right hook, and...

    House Rules changing Medium and Heavy Armor

    Yo. I've always thought that it was a little irritating that: 1) Medium armor was so amazingly sucky -- worse armor check penalties and slower movement, but breastplates are only +1 better than a chain shirt! Who wears medium armor, unless it's mithril full plate? 2) The max dex + armor bonus...

    [WOTC] Revised Corebooks for July confirmed with info

    How much do you want to bet that the new books are as full of typos and other mistakes as the old ones? For instance, yesterday, I learned that Web fills up a 10' cube per caster level. Says so right there in the short spell descript listings. *sigh* If they actually hired editors this time...

    Exercise in rules abuse if you will...

    I'm trying to figure out precisely what sort of "rules abuse" you're going to generate with a 200th level character. I mean, what's going to be "abusive" here? It's like a post saying "Do you have any idea how much I could buy if I had eleventy billion dollars?!" Um, a lot? And what's the...

    The issue of super strength

    Re: d20 Super / Mega Strength That's very, very interesting . . . I like it! I wonder if a feat like that might work in D&D. At least, something similar. I think you'd have to make it so that if you used it, you lost your OWN strength-bonus to hit, though, or else it'd be a little on the...
