    Favorite Video Game Weapon!!!

    Gotta be the railgun from Marathon: EVIL. Something about being able to fire a shard of futuristic metal through multiple enemies just appeals to my sense of horrible maiming goodness. :] Edit: Ah, I see someone mentioned the SPNKR. See, I never enjoyed that weapon. Now that I think about...

    What's your screen name from?

    Nellisir always sounded like a good name for a dragon laguz from the video game Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance to me. Ever thought of giving a dragon that name in one of your games? :)

    What's your screen name from?

    genshou is the Romaji spelling of the Japanese word for "phenomenon". It's a nickname I got back in '98 when I first started taking an active interest in the online world, and it's also one of the titles given to my fantasy alter-ego.

    I'll reiterate my prior requests, to see if they spark any creativity:

    Help me freak out my players!

    I ran a session that turned into a bloodbath on Friday. The PCs, as agents of Department-7, were investigating a cult led by an illithid who had been trapped in the modern world. When they were getting ready to leave, the party's healer heard footsteps ahead... and they were supposed to be in...

    Wait, what in VP/WP makes it rough to play a droid character?

    True 20 - Is it really Simpler?

    That's what I do when I convert WotC adventure NPC spellcasters for my games that use Elements of Magic - Revised Edition. With True20 it should be even easier to just rebuild them from scratch than in a more complicated magic system like EoMR.

    True 20 - Is it really Simpler?

    Slipping in a feat or two along with the rest of the horde I'd be adding in shouldn't be noticeable ^_^ Thanks for the info!

    DCC #35 Contents and First Impressions

    My FLGS is going to get me a copy once it's available. Anyone know what the slated release date in September is, specifically?

    Chance of unsubscribing

    Well, there went the vast majority of my subscriptions. Luckily I can search for any of the ones I needed to keep track of, but still... Wouldn't just disabling instant notification for forum subscriptions cut down on the mail big time?

    d20 Star Wars Saga Edition news from Gen Con?

    You sure we're playing the same d20 Star Wars? A Huge rancor has 46 wound points, and there's no way you're dealing 56+ damage with a 3d8 blaster rifle. :\

    True 20 - Is it really Simpler?

    I know this is gonna seem like blasphemy to some of you, but... How hard would it be to put Attacks of Opportunity into True20? They're actually one of the reasons I haven't converted yet, but I'm liking so much more of what I'm reading here. :(

    Wound / vitality system pros

    Having dealt only a single point of wound damage, that bullet didn't hit very effectively, did it? The extra force imparted by the larger-caliber bullet was just enough to tear off some flesh and muscle as it hit right on the edge of the target's body. The smaller bullet just tore the surface...

    Rules Never Prevent RPing? (But Minis Seem To Do So?)

    I've been playing D&D for 11 years almost to the exclusion of any other game. I've been using minis the whole time. Not once have I gotten any mechanical benefit for role-playing comparable to the benefit of taking 3.5 Power Attack. Do I still role-play? Yes. To me, at least, it seems clear...

    Rules Never Prevent RPing? (But Minis Seem To Do So?)

    See, here's where I see the argument weaken. How can a ruleset in which the chapter on combat is such a small portion of the Player's Handbook be a mini game? If you look at the contents and their percentages, it looks to me like it's actually a game about building characters and using magic...

    Email notification down again?

    Let's just say I have a lot more than five. :uhoh: Mostly it's the forum subscriptions I'm sad about not getting.
