I went ahead and got Spycraft 2 based on the comments of Phil and Psion (and the fact I did want it anyhow, but these guys cemented it for me). I have only had 2 hours to get into the meat of the book but I really like what I am seeing so far. I like the fluid initiative, I like the error/threat...

I didnt have time to crawl this whole thread, so if I repeat a point, apologies in advance. As the (hardass) DM of my group, I *WOULD* allow the pc to choose whether or not he screamed/yelped/cried/wailed on a case-by-case basis. Why? Because even in real life I have been frightened a few times...

Yes, unfortunately. One of my best players moved to Boston about a year ago and created a vacuum in our game. He is a bright guy and a natural leader, well respected by the rest of the group. The leadership mantle he left has still not been fully taken up by any one player. Our group tends to...

Im with Hellhound on this one, I picked up a copy but havent gotten too deep into it since I've been hitting the Warhammer 2 book pretty hard. The rest of my spare time has been taken up by Battlefield 2.

I would NEVER steal on of your PDFs, Phil.... say, what kind of car do you drive (and does it have an alarm on it)? ;)

Thank God you are there to police idiots like me! Do I owe you a stipend for sharing your wisdom, or is your advice freely dispatched to the unwashed masses as a gift (would that it could be so!!!!)? Once again, the system works fine with my mature adult group of 7 gamers. It works because...

You misunderstand. It is a tactic of dissuasion and IT WORKS. I can cite more than one example of how it worked in my game. You must game with adults/mature individuals first off. Without this, then you are probably right, someone will throw a tantrum or cry foul. All this aside, you claim that...

Not at the moment, but for a while I was running a 3e D20 FALLOUT conversion. Twas fun.

I'm a heavy handed DM, so take this with a grain of salt if you are less inclined to be... I told my PCs a long time ago that I dont care if they cheat (of course, I *do* care, and they know this), but if I catch them, then they owe me TWO cheats against them. Sounds to me like this guy has two...

I guess I should count myself lucky then. DungeonmasterCal and I live in the same state and I get every issue on time. In the two years since Ive resubscribed I never missed an issue, although maybe 2 were late (by more than a week).

IMO, yes, it is very fast to stat out an enemy. You pick his core skills (no need to allocate points, core skills get max ranks automatically), a few feats, and basic equipment. You dont even have to worry about attributes if you want the NPC to be a commoner, just assume +0 in all stats.

My hard and fast number for prestige classes allowed in my game is zero. 3.5 runs fine without em :]

I would LOVE to see a game based on Firefly/Serenity. Hell, I would love to see one based on the new Battlestar Galactica too.

I would most definitely play a RC game or 1e game any time. I would be less excited about a 2e game, but would still do it given the right group.

I dont think it would mess anything up at all. I did this in my 3.5 campaign with no ill effects. If you wish to interrupt a spellcaster you must get within melee and hold your action. Then if you hit him he is interrupted. If he has initiative on you, you're stewed.

Yah, I would be much more likely to import the True20 Roles. I am actually doing this for my modern game. I might do this for a Middle Earth mini-campaign idea I've been sitting on for a while, as the True20 roles are damned flexible and would fit quite well in the setting. The damage system...

EDIT: Post Deleted. Wasnt advancing the topic at hand.

LOL! I feel like I am arguing with my sisters kids here. If you can deflect your broad generalizations enough back to me then somehow you are credible, is that it? I have played C&C twice, ever. Currently playing SWD20. If that makes me a me a member of the inquisition tag team then *shrug*...

The Goodman Games stuff seems (IME) to be the closest thing to getting back the Old School feel for 3.x games. If you guys are seriously wanting to go old school you can also tweak out some of the Necro stuff like crucible of freya (which rocks but does require some tweaking to feel old school...
