    Handling a large group?

    I recently took up the DM Helm recently in order to jump start a gaming group (everyone wanted to play, no one really, really wanted to DM), and it grew rapidly through word of mouth and johnny-come-latelys to be a whopping 9 member group (including me)!! Thanfully, for all of us being...

    high action modern d20 system?

    It's been a while since i've run or played anything, but my group is shy of a DM so i am going to give it a shot. Now, i'm hoping to run a high action comic-bookish type of game that starts normal and then takes a turn towards the strange (magic, super science, mutants, etc). I was thinking...

    Half-Giants and Unarmed Damage

    With the Half-giants seeming to be on the fence about whether they are Medium or Large and also the fact they can weild Large weapons without a problem I was wondering what progression they use for their Unarmed Damage. Do they use the Medium unarmed damage or Large unarmed damage progression...

    Fun w/ Balance, Jump and Tumble

    So I have a character with really good bonuses for Balance (+24), Jump (+33) and Tumble (+26) and 5 levels of Theif-Acrobat, so I don't have to worry about most of the penalties for movement when using these skills. What kind of fun stuff can I do with these skills, and what books can I find...

    Dark Legacies from Red Spire Press - Opinions?

    I've been keeping semi-tabs on this setting/book since I first heard about it and from the reviews I've read I am really hoping to get it sometime soon. But I'd like some opinions from fellow EN-World'ers that have either read it or played it for their impressions. So - tell me what you think...

    How do you get "in character" for NPCs?

    Recently I've been thinking about ways to spice up my NPCs (and maybe even some of my own PCs), such as the accents they use, they way they move, something they might carry around (like a lucky coin they are always rolling around in their hand) and other things to make them a little more...

    AU - Verrick Racial Levels question

    I don't have my book here at work, but this morning i noticed that in the description of the verrick racial levels it mentions that verrick racial levels stack with caster level for caster level benefits (or wording to a similar effect). Now - maybe I am missing something (or not), but does...

    Hola. I'm in the middle of trying to build a decent brawler/bare knuckle fighter and for the life of me I can't find any decent base class options, monk options (ala OA or Quint. Monk) or anything else that scream "this is perfect!". I've tried the following: 1) Beyond Monks - The Art of the...

    Energy Substitution feat

    real quick question here: does the Energy Sustitution feat from Tome and Blood allow me to modify any spell that has an energy descriptor to another energy type (ie: lightning bolt to fire bolt) or do i pick just one spell and that is the spell i can do the subsitution on?

    Are Franks treated like normal "humans" as far as skill points and starting feats go, or are they treated like Moreaus (ie - decrease of skill points and number of starting feats)?

    Demon Hunter PrCs, where can i find 'em?

    I'm looking for a demon hunter-like PrC. I checked out Knights of the Chalice from DotF and like it (although the multiclass ranger/cleric, ranger/palandin combo seems a bit odd), but I am wondering if there any other PrCs out there like it. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

    GM question: How much info do you give to players?

    In the Piloting and Movement section of Mecha Combat it states that if you try to move past an opponant without provoking an AoO that you use either Tumble or Pilot, whichever has the lower bonues. Can someone explain this to me? It seems to me that it should be whichever is higher - or not...

    Ok - where is a description for this thing in the book? It's mentioned in the Treat Injury skill and in the Field Medic class, it's even listed in the item table for professional equipment. But I can't find a description for it anywhere? Or am I just blind?

    Multiple Profession = More Wealth Bonuses?

    OK, i haven't seen anything on this board of the WotC board about how to handle multiple professions. Like lets say you have someone who is (for some reason) both a Car Mechanic and a Writer, he is equally adept at both (lets say he has 3 ranks in both Profession(Mechanic) and...

    Wad-Cutter bullets - anyone heard of em?

    OK, a long time ago when I would go shooting with my grandfather I found a few .38 rounds rattleing around in a beat up old carrying case he used. They had a real flat head, pretty much looking like someone had taken a round and chopped the tip off. He called them Wad Cutters and said they...
