The only way to make it feasible for the large army to be a threat is to place some severe restrictions on the wizards. Maybe they are protecting something within the castle that requires constant upkeep? (Im suddenly thinking of the Hatch in Lost). This would focus thier attention inwards...

What about the one that failed the save? Does he just keep blasting bolts at the troops? (in this case, I had him do that until he was attacked, then he turned on the attacker) Thats a good rule of thumb though...what would I do if I was a PC?

So Ive got a creative player, who likes using his Silent Image spell. While I don't want to stifle his creativity, I've been having trouble with trying to handle the effects of the spell (and illusions in general) To give an example: Last night they were fighting a group of Aranea sorcerors...

I have fond memories of the fun I had from all editions of DnD. So, i would say none of them failed. Now, my tastes may have changed over the years, but while I was playing them, I enjoyed all versions of dnd.

I liked him in the AD&D cartoon :)

Go together like chocolate and peanut butter. That said, all things in moderation, we play on a weeknight, so work doesn't allow for getting hammered. (I've played in games where alcohol was frowned upon...once. I'm an adult and I don't need a GM to be my parent)

I remember a Gorgon (because it killed a PC), lots of minotaurs (from the maze), and pineapple grenades. But that was the early 90's so a lot of it is in a haze. I would love to see a special mini for the Efreeti Pasha.

Actually, I meant the items from previous books, like the Complete Series, Libris Mortis, Lords of Madness, even the SRD. I would like to be able to go to one book when it comes time to give out the loot.

Yup...exactamundo. Its great to have good players.

Isn't this book supposed to have all the magic items from the supplements previous to it? Or is it just another book of magic items? (I would buy the former, but not the latter)

Same level as everyone else. I don't penalize a level for Raise Dead/Resurrection either. Level loss makes for imbalance in the group and punishment where its not needed. The death and costs of resurrection are punishment enough, no need to insult them with a level loss as well.

Glad you liked it :)

Great idea... Two sessions ago I gave two items that eerily remind me of these crystals...they were one shot enhancement items for weapons, course these were permanent enchantments. Stone of Sharpening: Adds Keen enchantment to +1 weapon Blood of the Wraith: Adds Ghost Touch enchantment to +1...

This was popular in the 90's "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and...

"The Power of Christ compels you!" /spray with holy water Rinse, repeat until the evil gets out.

Unless you like Paella (sp?)

Our party in 2e carried one around as a pet and camp guard. We got it after it dropped on us and missed. They are so cute and helpless on the ground :) Mr. Pointy the Piercer.

I modified some hill giants into Jungle Giants for an upcoming session taking place in the Jungles of Xendrik. Mainly moved skills and feats and added a level of Ranger. Now they are somewhat stealthy (quiet anyway) and have survival skills. Use longspears instead of clubs. Considering...

Love the Sig :)

Durn...I liked my anecdote. I guess I was just saying that being dead is not fun, unless you had fun getting there. More to the topic, why bother with the intricate stats in DnD if a pc can be dropped by a random arrow? Why not just move to a much more simplistic system? Why bother with...
