    One player trying to one-up everybody else?

    So, he's playing an akashic who's trying to outthink the magisters, dodge better than the unfettered, and outfight the wolf totem warrior, but didn't put any points into Knowledge skills until you made fun of him? With his d6 hit dice and heavy armor, he's practically doomed to die to anyone...

    wackiest historical weapons?

    Can anyone find a historical basis for a sword-axe? Looks like a sword, hilt and all, except also with an axehead (top heavy) at the point.

    Sins of Our Fathers Story Hour - Fiends and Friends

    Sweet. I cannot wait to read more about those "blessed" with possession.

    PDF now or Print later?

    For many of the reasons already stated above, but also because I dislike paper and clutter in general. I'm pretty much an anti-packrat, but still have nine boxes of gaming products from my youth taking up space in my garage. Since the advent of PDFs and ESDs, I've been much happier about my...

    PDF now or Print later?

    I hate printed products, but sometimes you just cannot get everything on PDF. For example, the AU triple-pack does not include everything in the hardback version, so I got the book. If WotC sold books in PDF, I would have every single one. Patching errata is simpler in PDF, too.

    PCs Running away when they should

    My new group knows when to run, but we don't always succeed. As Djeta says, sometimes the enemy can outrun you, and there's just no in-game way you can stop the impending carnage. Eight characters go in, two come out...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    I lurv it when a PC gibbers with fear. This is probably why I like Mostin and his angels more than unflappable supermen like Eadric or Malachite. Go Kellus!

    Need help with magic item creation

    Posters from the Necromancer boards have also suggested finding a comparable spell in order to create a constant item. Enlarge Person is a 1st level 3.5 spell that increases Size and therefore carrying capacity. A wondrous item that doubles carrying capacity may therefore cost as little as 2000...

    The Age of Blood returns! (updated: 5/19/04)

    Doh! Nikolas succumbed to a Hold Person, as did the brave thief-catcher! Write on, Sir Kalten, and peace to the departed! (so says the player of Nikolas when Jorge ran this in Atlanta) :)

    Need help with magic item creation

    He'd like to use guidelines where possible. We acknowledge that such an item is not explicitly described in the DMG, so we're trying to find rules or approximations which make sense.

    Need help with magic item creation

    I'd like to create a belt that doubles a giant's carrying capacity. It does not affect attack and damage bonuses or Strength-based skill checks. It's meant to make giants (the PC race in Arcana Unearthed) comparable to Giants (the monster type) in terms of carrying capacity. My DM has...

    Sins of Our Fathers - 2/10 - Final Update

    Destan, you rock. Sep's cosmology may be unrivaled, but your characters simply live.

    DragonCON ?

    I'll be there, though I agree that gaming just isn't the focus at DragonCon, as it is at GenCon. The people watching by the escalators is top-rate, however. I wonder if Christopher Judge and Corin Nemec have heard of the Stargate SG-1 RPG?

    AU - first impressions?

    Unlike Barcode's post about his impression of AU, your response to Joshua Dyal isn't based on ownership of the product.

    AU - first impressions?

    Doc, why are you participating in this thread if you don't like the author and don't plan on picking up the books?

    Let's hope they incorporate errata!

    D&D 3.x [3.5] No good reason to get rid of Ambidexterity...

    Without hit locations, handedness is primarily flavor. Feats are precious. I support the change, and feel that it is good.

    New SRD available

    Maybe we're hitting the servers too hard. I picked up the first four compiled documents, but the server went down when I tried to pick up the psionics compilation.

    RANT: Credit card Fraud

    Sorry to hear about this. Please be sure to call the FBI. I hope they catch the nasty bugger!

    Seeking players for Suwanee, Ga

    Pit Fiend, I sent you e-mail about this. Perhaps we can do lunch this Saturday.
