How does PF not mesh with those sources, in your opinion?

The trees I got from a link in the MapTools forum. The logs, firepit, and bedrolls are from the Gallery link on the MapTools page. The tokens I made myself with TokenTool, which is from the same people that make MapTool. I just used Google Image Search to find an appropriate picture and plopped...

Have the people who are complaining about backwards compatibility actually sat down and tried to convert a module or adventure to Pathfinder rules? I have. It's fast work. Converting an entire module took me about half an hour.

To be fair, I ripped it off from s@squ@tch.

Why would you take an item that only benefits ranged basic attacks when an item is available that benefits melee basic attacks, on a character who will make far more melee basic attacks than ranged basic attacks? Especially when the ranged basic attack item is more expensive?

What else are you going to put in that slot on a melee character that doesn't use a shield?

How is "enemy moves into an adjacent square" not "if movement was the trigger"? Combat Superiority still applies.

No. The power says it can be used twice per encounter, as a specific override to the general rule that Encounter powers can only be used once per encounter. Initiate of the Faith is an even more specific rule that specifically says you can use the power once per day. Using the power twice in one...

Depends what you're using it for. Scorching ray will do more damage per cast, but produce flame works in both melee and at range, and works over multiple rounds so you don't have to waste spells (or use a crossbow). They fill two entirely different niches. Heroes of Horror, same as the...

I think Redclaw said she caught up to us at the edge of town, didn't he? I thought you were with the group. Immeral would have told you to catch up anyway as soon as he spotted you - and since his perception beats your stealth, that's kinda a foregone conclusion unless you were actively trying...

This is my guess. It's the same with the Bracers of Mighty Striking vs Bracers of the Perfect Shot. They both do essentially the same thing, but the Perfect Shot bracers are 1 level higher. I'm assuming this is because they work with Magic Missile and Eldritch Blast, while the Mighty Striking...

Paladins could do it easily if you allowed multiclassing. Two pure paladins, one or two multiclass paladin-clerics or paladin-warlords, and one or two multiclass paladin-rangers or paladin-warlocks. Even without multiclassing, paladins are still probably your best bet. They have the best mix of...

There's MapTool, a free cartography/game table tool. It's pretty solid and once you get past the learning curve, pretty powerful too. This thread shows some examples of my use of it in a 4E PbP I'm running.

Produce Flame is a good first-level druid spell for general combat use. Entangle, of course. There's not much spell-wise at level 3 that will help you with a crossbow. And I'd certainly not spend any feats on other weapons - once you get a few more levels, you'll never use your crossbow.

Immeral's eyes widen in shock at seeing monsters so near to the town, but he calms himself and says a prayer to Sehanine as he steps backwards into the forest, drawing and loosing two arrows in swift succession. Initiative (1d20+4=8) I'll start in the H column, preferably at H20. Can I get a...

Oh, I know. Like I said, I trust you to not screw us over without good reason ;) I'm just ranting a bit about the flaws in the system.

This. The range doesn't tell you anything about what kind of weapon it's used on. It just tells you how close the target has to be. The target line is what tells you what it can target; in this case, any weapon. Including your fists or a chair, if you so desired.

He's talking about the fact that you have to go to -bloodied in order to die from HP damage, which means you pretty much always get 3 rounds to cast a simple heal on the guy and get him back on his feet.

The problem with that is it dictates characters and character builds. Rangers can't get social skills as trained skills, for example, without using feats on them or being an Eladrin. It's not only that I saw Immeral as an 'outsider' ... the rules of the game pretty well dictated that to me. You...

No big heals? Clerics get one at 6th level - Cure Serious Wounds heals 2 surges worth of health without spending a single surge. They and Warlords also get up to surge+6d6 healing on their Healing/Inspiring Word, which could end up as a double surge for some characters. Two surges is half your...
