In 1e it was the cover of Throne of Bloodstone, an adventure for characters level 18-100 where you go to the Abyss and fight Orcus. Is it still the highest-level/highest-difficulty module ever published?

Here are some books currently in the schedule: Of Beasts and Men (monsters) Sorcery & the Fey (magic) The Flower of Battle (extra combat tactics and mass combat) The Lure of Gold (rogue supplement) The game system looks really great and I hope to start playing soon. I think the best part of...

ooc: I was GURPS too! Funny, I've agreed with you in a bunch of your posts too.

I agree with the occupations. That's about what I've done with my human-only world. Basically, each culture gets a couple of class skills. However, if the class they start with already has them as class skills, they get a +1 competence bonus in that skill instead. You could also narrow down...

And men complain about "high maintenance" women too. I still think that it's the concept of ineffectual that's the problem here, not the issue of rescuing. Ineffectual people are undesirable as love interests for both men and women, regardless of whether or not they have been rescued.

1ed MM - the pic with the adventurers, kobolds, and other creatures, with someone getting skewered by a piercer. I think that's the gist of it. I haven't seen that pic in a while, so I don't remember it exactly.

I think this is the key here. If you define ineffectual broadly, I don't think that any men would be very motivated to fall in love with an ineffectual woman that they rescue either. If someone has no traits that appeal to you, why would rescuing them suddenly make them such a target of your...

I guess I've just never seen anyone go with breastplate. Why let your mobility be so drastically cut back for only 1 AC benefit over chain shirt? Another way to spread it out more smoothly might have been to have breastplate grant a +6 +2 Max Dex benefit. It might have made the movement hit...

I think the problem is that the AC isn't much better than light armor, but your speed drops to 20/15. It's a pretty hefty loss for the minor benefit, and at that point you might as well wear heavy armor. One solution I've heard suggested here for this was switching the move penalties for...

Anyone know if they are fixing med. armor in the revision? It doesn't really have much of an effective purpose right now as far as I can see.

This doesn't make sense. Knowledge (spellunking) won't help you identify a cave-dwelling dragon, and Knowledge (arcana) won't help you identify an aberration that is a species created through magical manipulation of other creatures or a species that is famous for it's arcane history (frex. some...

As pointed out, low versus high fantasy has more to do with story than setting (although certain settings might be more geared toward one or the other, frex Kalamar versus Dragonlance). My favorite blend is low fantasy in scope coupled with magic being rare, yet rather powerful when it is...

Sorry. I tend to use more words then I need to. I think ForceUser's description is more concise. It's the same thing. :) Edit: The only difference is that I don't subtract points for abilities less than 8 as he does in step 2. I thought about this but ultimately decided not to so as to...

Hehe. Someone has a bumper sticker on my street: "Mal Wart: Your source for cheap plastic crap."

Here's a method to take the edge off of the imbalances of rolling and also avoid the repetitive and predictable stat allocations of point buy. Organic Point Buy Ability Score Generation Method Created by myself with modifications from nsruf 1. Roll 3d6 for each stat in order and take all...

Vemuz rises early and heads back to the foc'sle, staring out past the breakwater and into the seas beyond. His injured arm is carefully disguised by the long sleeves of his work shirt.

There should be a # of characters typed meter as well. :)

Hi Planesdragon, that sounds great. Where is your web site? I agree that $2.50 would have been more reasonable. As it stands now the PDF costs more than many other PDFs that contain original material. EDIT: And by the way, I have the Modern SRD in PDF and Word format for free here...

Hey, thanks! *copy* *paste* *save* What a great list of critter names!!!

Do you mean 1000 years? The bristlecone pine is the longest living tree. One of them is recorded at 4,767+ years. It's just stunning for me to think of the large swath of human history that this one tree has been the contemporary of. Incidentally, this makes California the home of the...
