    Need help naming an Organization in my campaign

    I saw someone else's thread looking for naming help, and reminded me of my own recent floundering in an attempt to name an organization in my campaign world. The organization is a militaristic branch of warriors that hunts down evil magic users, for the service of good magic users. They are...

    Archer Prestige Class

    Just two warnings on your PrC here: 1. Archers are all ready pretty powerful in my eyes. I've played an archer (with below average stats) and have wreaked some major damage. IMO, this prestige class is way overbalanced and gives even more power to an already powerful combat role. 2. The...

    Where can I browse & order miniatures online?

    I definitely agree with the above post: do not order from NewWave! They charge your credit card before your merchandise even ships. That alone should be reason enough not to order from them, but on top of that they are notoriously late on shipments, have horrible customer service (don't even...

    Chainmail on sale 50% Off

    This is just from my personal experience from the two stores in Milwaukee, Wisconsin that I shop at: -Neither of the stores is 'dumping' their inventories via discounts or price reductions. -Neither of the stores, however, seem to get in the newest figures. Makes me wonder if they are refusing...

    Does anyone here own the various Reaper Weapons Packs?

    If you have the patience (or a Dremel) taking off Sir Falco Steelcross's Shield could be an option for you- and then attach it to your mini. I've done that myself to a few minis. Or you could always paint the dragon design on a blank shield. -mac1504

    Compelling Encounters!

    I've always wanted to use this one- but I still haven't yet: Have the next battle occur in a cavern where the walls are covered with oil... maybe the only clue they get is a smell they can't make out unil they're in battle and ready to start flinging some fireballs. Should make them rethink...

    Dm Suicide!!!

    Let her roll up a character one level below the group's lowest level member, limit her treasure (say 60-75% of what everyone else has), and use her "cursed" character against the group. Maybe her old character becomes drawn to the evil that is her curse, and without "guidance" has accepted the...

    Monk's Tattoo

    Where is the Monk's tatoo and Monk's bracers listed? And do Bracers of Armor count as armor on a monk? (i.e. will a monk lose his AC bonus from Wisdom when wearing bracers of any kind?) Thanks, mac1504

    [OT] Black Hawk Down - Somalia Operation

    Well I spent some time in a light infantry unit in the Army, and I worked with a lot of Rangers and Special Forces so I'll take a shot at answering your questions. I think they probably stayed away from going to rooftops since I believe they were trying to stay mobile. The rangers and delta...

    Step = Reach

    I like the idea, and actually our group is working on this idea as a house rule. The only problems I think is that some creatures have greater reaches than their size indicates (can't think of any examples off the top of my head) and this wouldn't seem to logically fit into your rule. The rule...

    [Reaper] New Reaper Catalog Available! Module Coming soon!

    Web Page Hey Talon, Could you ask the friendly people at Reaper why they don't update their website more often? I would love to see more of the upcoming releases on their webpage since they never ever send me a catalog when I request one. And I would order from you to get the catalog, but I'm...

    Since Gen Con is moving to Indiana, what will Wisconsin be left with?

    Re: Re: Whats on at Milwaukee Really? I was always told that the old Pig and Whistle on Capitol Drive was the model for Arnold's in the Happy Days (and I think there was an homage to that restaurant, although maybe unintentionally, in DragonLance as well from Weis and Hickman) Ah, but what...

Let us know on the boards what their prices are like, I...

    Since Gen Con is moving to Indiana, what will Wisconsin be left with?

    Wisconsin will always remain the birthplace of D&D and GenCon- never forget that. And I bet Indianopolis doesn't have anything as original as the Safehouse! Milwaukee Citizen

    Racial Cultural Traits

    I've been working on a new campaign world for a few years now, and I'm coming close to actually running a campaign in it. Lately I have been tweaking the races in the world by adding cultural traits to them. I want the races to have different/interesting outlooks on the world they live in. A...
