Exalted is fantasy roleplaying with wire-fu... ;) If you've seen some of the completely over-the-top Chinese fantasy films that have been done over the years, that's a good visual source. So is some of the fantasy anime that's been done (Ninja Scroll, Yotoden...). I really like it. Solars and...

Let's be clear... the real issue isn't exactly that a nuclear war or holocaust is less plausible. The real issue is that we understand that radiation doesn't work that way. No amount of radiation is likely to turn rabbits into the anthropomorphical equivalent of the Michigan Militia. Nor is it...

If I were going to play BESM D20, I'd just skip that altogether and just use BESM Tristat. I don't see any benefit to using their D20 variant.

Yes, yes it is. It's the darkest of the four books, but as it deals with what is almost the death of the human race, that's somewhat understandable. I see a number of things that seem to be consistent in Barnes' books thus far: it wouldn't take much for the world to go to hell in a handbasket...

Sorry, didn't have them in front of me so I got the title wrong on Candle. If you care about reading them in order, it's Kaleidoscope Century, Orbital Resonance, Candle, The Sky So Big and Black. I've found that it doesn't really matter too much what order they're read in, but I think you're...

Off topic reply, but for an idea of where they get some of their inspiration for memes and what a worst case scenario could be like, check out some of John Barnes' books, like Kaleidoscope Century, Orbital Resonance, Cradle and The Sky So Big and Black. Resuna and One True are scary... though...

Not that I would want to wave you off from your FLGS, but you can order those Mind Flayer minis directly from Reaper's web site. I got mine in four days. :)

That would make more sense if WotC made any money from the secondary market, but they do not. If that's why they're doing this (and I'm not saying they are), that implies that they want to encourage speculation. Bad move... somewhere down the line the bubble that forms will burst, and generally...

You guys rock... Thanks... :)

I prefer to paint my minis, and I also prefer to buy what I need rather than buy lots of stuff I don't need in hopes of getting what I do need. So, with that in mind, who makes or might still have unpainted/metal miniatures of Illithid and Gith? I'm hoping to track down 4 to 8 of each down.

Every time I see their adds for 'Warlords of the Accordlands" my brain parses it at "Warlords of the Accordians". Polka Bard prestige class, here I come... :)

Okay, that seems to prove that people will never agree. Now can we let it go?

Find a better FLGS then, assuming you can. Perhaps I'm spoiled, but I have two good stores within 10 miles of me and both of them carry a large wall of minis. They'll also special order anything you tell them you want. It's not that tough really...

Unless you want a particular mini, or don't need 6 more Goblins, sure...

I skipped over a number of posts, so it's possible that someone else already suggested this, but there's an existing mechanic in d20M that help with skill flexibilty: Occupations. From the Modern SRD: A hero may hold other jobs as his or her career unfolds, but the benefits of a starting...

You're aware that Swords & Sorcery is going to be doing a couple of Gamma World books in the not so distant future (this year I believe)?

Troops are currently trained to use the M-16 at ranges out to 300 yards, which is about its effective range as well, amazingly enough. Yes, you can hit targets at longer ranges but that starts to enter the realm of an extremely skilled (or lucky) character. And, of course, the quality of the...

But only if you're firing full auto... a tracer's going to be pretty damn useless from a pistol, for instance.

Okay, now I have to see if I can somehow script this using the Neverwinter Nights Aurora toolset... Sim Slaad Farm
