But those things ARE contemplated under this system. The sword, infantry regiment and dragon are different, because they can give you different special abilities. The dragon might give you a 1xday AOE attack, the infantry regiment might give you some flanking buddies for some fights and the...

I was just thinking about that... Let’s say that the minimum goal is 3k points to win the war. The next "milestone" is at 4k and the final one is at 5k. Each asset gets assigned a percentile table that you roll to see what happens to it after the conflict (this tables will, of course, not be...

Is a fun “War Campaign” possible? Find out here! Hello! I may be running a War Campaign in the upcoming months and I am going to use a method for resolving the conflict similar to Mass Effect 3. For those who weren't lucky enough to play this great game, basically you accumulate "War Assets"...

Ha! I made this mistake because I thought this was the pathfinder forum! Silly me!

Maximizing the HD of the first level is how do you it by RAW, if I recall correctly. I use two methods on my campaigns, every time you level up you can pick any one of the two. 1- You can roll your HD and take the result of the die or switch it for 1/2 the die rolled, rounded down. For...

Skill focus (Diplomacy) is the best choice (+3 at first, then +6 when you have 10 ranks on the skill). Gnome is a good race for this, +2 Cha and Con (Useful for those times when the diplomacy doesn't work!). First things first, IMO, talk to your DM about this character concept. Find out how is...

I have not. I do not own nor have access to Way of the Wicked, my knowledge of the book simply comes from the product description and (mainly) the multiple discussions here in the forum. From what I've heard, the adventure starts off sandboxy and then narrows down a little bit. This seems like...

Yeah, basically what the author said. I especially like the part about Evil is Proactive. That is why, in my opinion, "Evil Campaigns" work better as sandbox games if your players are cool with that. If you feel that they would prefer to be more guided, then have them work for a truly vicious...

There are some combinations that result in power boosts for your character. The classic example is to take some fighter levels, to get some bonus feats, and then multiclass into a more specialize class, like Paladin or Ranger for the class features. Pathfinder has some rules that discourage...

Well... the Archetype is not THAT bad... If I were to give out suggestions, take a very high DEX to benefit from the Finessable quality of the weapon. There is a racial replacement for the half-elf that lets you switch Skill Focus with Exotic Weapon Proficiency with any weapon, so there's...

Awesome! I bought the PDF set a while back, and now we get this great compilation! Very good compatibility!

OR, you could make it cap with your BAB... That seems like a reasonable compromise

Yes there is! But it is 3.5 (it hasn't been reprinted for pathfinder, that I know of). I called on the trait as a precedent because it mirrors the feat so closely (if you take into consideration that Traits were advertized as "1/2 Feats"). I would advice against a "+4" cap, since "Challenges...

It's the same reason why Fighters can choose Weapon Specialization when they reach lvl 4.

In my opinion, a feat that lets you add up your total character level to determine the amount of daily Challenges is the best solution. So, if he is a Samurai 6/PrC 10, he gets as many daily Challenges as a 16 level Samurai. This would make it similar to the Trait that lets your add levels on...

More Hodor!!1! Actually, "More Humanoids!" might be interesting, since it will give more options to PCs as well

In my opinion, the right way to go about it is to analyze WHY vampires can't cross running water and then attack the weakness from there (since, in my opinion, being washed over with a torrent from a fully powered Decanter of Endless water DOES constitute as being half-submerged in running...

Actually, they just treat them as Martial weapons (as a cleric, you don't get access to those, by default). What they DO get is prof. with the battleaxe, heavy pick, and warhammer, which are ok weapons. Dwarves are pretty cool, indeed. Slow and Steady means that your speed will be the same as...

Travel domain is considered by many (myself included) to be a Tier 1 domain. Te vanilla version is the best one, but the sub-domains aren't too bad either. As for the other domain... depending on the party composition (i.e. if you are the only source of healing on a big party) Healing is great...
