    What, If Anything, Might be Wrong with the Warblade?

    I'm allowing it in my upcoming Eberron campaign with a couple of minor nerfs. I removed Weapon Aptitude and they're not allowed to pick fighter bonus feats. I also gave fighters a bump by giving them all of their fighter-only feats for free at roughly the levels that they would recieve them...

    101 Bennies

    - That sofa on the corner looks practically new! - In a small cubbyhole in someones basement/ancient ruins, you find a 300 year old bottle of dwarven whiskey. - A local fortune teller offers to read the PC's palms for free. - PC's get an invitation to a local fancy dress ball. - One of the...

    Modifying the MERP/Rolemaster crit charts for a d20 Modern game

    I give it a week before they change their minds. :D I suppose you could assign them by number. A natural 20 could be an "E", a 16 (if it hits) could be an "A". Thats pretty rough but honestly I'm not sure that it can be done better than just roughly. Hmmm, maybe you could use the...

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

    What problem? Seriously, what problem is there? It's like saying "Why does vanilla not taste like mint chocolate chip?" It's because it doesn't. That doesn't mean that theres a problem with it, they're just two different things with different traits.

    PHB2 Errata and the knight class

    This made me think I should add: I'm not complaining about the class in any way, shape, or form. I just found it sort of odd that they'd be built in that way when every other tank class is poor will/good fort. I feel like it's the equivalent of driving up to a stoplight and finding that someone...

    PHB2 Errata and the knight class

    Does anyone know if theres any official PHB2 errata out? I noticed that the knight is written as having a poor fortitude save and thought that was peculiar for a melee oriented class. Was that intended or was it a mistake?

    Gaming Hoaxes

    Hiya Sleeping. heh, I had no idea you were on Enworld. How's England working out? FUnnily enough we're going to have another player moving to that side of the pond in a couple of months. Out of curiosity, did Hussar tell you what he did with Gugeno after you left? :)

    Gaming Hoaxes

    In my first ever D&D game I played a half-orc rogue who was something of a jerk. The DM allowed me to have a ring of prestidigitation at 1st level for an -350 XP penalty. I kept the thing hidden from the other players as long as possible and co-ordinated some nifty stuff through the DM. The...

    "Present" for a Rogue (L7) vs. Golems???

    This would be handy. Even if you can get something that allows sneak attack, there no point to it if all the SA is going to be soaked up by damage reduction.

    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Hoo-ray! We can finally read this thread! :D I was Thugdar in Hussars WLD game. I've been curious as to what you guys have been up to in here and I can finally take a look.

    Do you DM?

    I've done a few short adventures for one group and I'm about to DM a game in Eberron for my other group. This will be the first time I've attempted an entire campaign so we'll see how it goes. :)

    Elder PCs

    I'd be inclined to go this route too.

    Why did the era of primordial evil end?

    I would say last tuesday...and always last tuesday.

    Sustenance - Tracked or Handwaved

    I really enjoyed the hunting we did in the early days of our WLD game. Mostly we ate fairly mundane stuff like snakes and fish but I do recall having quite a bit of dried krenshar. I could swear we had some ethereal marauder meat at one point too. I actually enjoyed having to hunt for our food...

    Altoids Metal Tins...

    I generally just throw them out. Several years ago I got it into my head to make an NES controllor our of one. It actually took two of which I had to cut off 2/3's of each. It was fun little novelty but was probably the crappiest game controller ever built. I finally got rid of it when the...

    Always wanted to fight/Never want to fight

    I'd love to see a gibbering mouther at some point. I have a personal bias towards aberrations. Failing that, something both colossal and undead would be nifty.

    D&D Designing Villains

    Personally I've always found that the most memorable villains are those whose motivations are understandable and can be sympathized with; even as they use highly disagreeable methods. Anyone out there who's played Suikoden 2? That game is a good example of this. Both your character and his...

    Fighting "Mr. T"

    A few things to note here: First, we're likely going to be in the 15-16 level range when we tangle with the tarrasque, so anything available to characters above those levels is out. Secondly, our wizard has five levels in a prc that does not increase caster levels. Even if we did somehow end up...

    Fighting "Mr. T"

    I'm not sure thats going to be an option as we're indoors. Even if there is space above it I imagine we'd still be in range of attacks and that would make it sort of a moot point. IIRC the goliath has something like 30 con. She can take a hit but I'm not fully certain how well she can...

    Fighting "Mr. T"

    I was wondering if anyone would catch that. :) Maybe I should add a little background info. It's a group of 6 PC's, all roughly lvl 15-16. lvl 16 orc barbarian lvl 16 kobold bard lvl 10/5 human wizard/master of the unseen hand lvl 10/4 human cleric/combat medic lvl 4/1/9 changeling...
