It's the Sneak! It's the Sneak! Who danced the Hully-Gully on the Panama Canal?

If you need another champion in the tournament, you could let me back in. You see, I am a future champion. ;)

Yeah, this has been my solution, using the same rules and introducing new elements. Rants aside, I wouldn't just abandon the group, so I am making up something for me. Specifically, using the rules from Savage Species to make the characters a back of celestials and outsiders working as a 'holy...

I think this is where I get really frustrated. I am not offering a diceless system here, it is a game defined by rules, all of which you don't need to have memorized! I think that once the stats are explained to you, you have an idea of what you want to do and how good your chances are, that...

Amen, brother! I bought CoC and made a two-week game out of one of the introductory modules. I made character 'packets' includiong a two to three page bio, photo, character sheet and one page list of motivations and interactions with other characters. It took me three or four weeks to get...

Perhaps for their next adventure, you could introduce them to that time honoured D&D tradition, the TPK. ;)

Is there an actual release date? All I keep hearing is 'July'.

Isn't it though? :)

I formulated relationships between objects, and then built the storyline. In this case it was Totem+Maze=Harpy's Goal. Bag of Tricks+Gynosphinx=Paranoid City. After that it was just a point of relating the two together, in this case the proximity of the city and maze. The bag of tricks just...

It can't help to bum me out a bit :) I took it that adherence to the D20 core books was a necessity. Even something like how Wicenna managed to maintain a charm for a week crossed my mind, but if I had done a stat block or more history on her, I would have included a scroll of Geas or the like...

No, no. No need to apologize! I just hate to see people get down on themselves, and I guess the sarcasm was hard to convey through the post. My apologies if I offended!

Well, sucks to be me then :) Nicely done Seasong! I agree with a lot of what Rune has written already, so good luck in round 2. I have to admit the bag of tricks stumped me. I had an idea but was forced to abandon it when I got home last night and checked the books. I was hoping one of the...

Your self-depricating comments are unnecessary and unwarranted.

I don't have my books with me, but I believe that there is a limitation on summoned creatures summoning other creatures. Specifically, I think the rule is that they can't. Of course this is only IIRC.

Fair enough. Does this mean you will describe my entry as 'intersting' instead of 'revolting'? ;) edit: The wait is now officially killing me, Rune!

I wouldn't worry about it Rune. When you are judging two entries against each other, not solely on their individual merit, your decision will always have a bias, IMHO. You are required to pick one, and it will be the one you like better. Don't sweat it. You are the judge, and you have to...

Congrats Nemmerle! I was really impressed by your concepts and execution. I might run this in my campaign with your permission. I have to say that Anonystu's was really quite clever and witty. I don't have d20 Modern, but this certainly piqued my interest! Good job to both of you.

Just personal experience, but my fighter types ALWAYS have a backup weapon or three. Armour, on the other hand, is a bit unwieldy to lug around. At 15th level, shouldn't the party have a relatively safe base of operations at which they could stock spare armour, or hole up until the smiths...

Clearly Nemmerle is not useing the 'suck-up-to-the-judge' tactic.

Honestly in our group, we expect and accept the off-topic comments. It comes with the territory. However, if the DM goes silent, that's the cue to shape up and get on with the game. In most cases if there is a pace to the game that is keeping us on our toes this doesn't happen. We try to...
