    Sith Wars- Saga Star Wars - Sunday 3pm-7pm (FOUR SLOTS OPEN)

    Hello Ao, It looks like an interesting darkside game. I'd like to play Pride or if Pride isn't available I'll take Pain.

    Aberrant - Trouble with character creation

    You need the Players Handbook for character creation and combat information. As Aberrant carries the d20 logo, I believe that the book cannot include information about character creation or leveling. With the Players Handbook and Aberrant, you should be able to create your super characters...

    D&D 4E When will 4e be anounced?

    Let's see the world is supposed to end around 2012, so if they want to make any money off of 4th edition, they had better sell it before then. It looks like 2010 would be a great time for a product release. Now if I were a marketer for WotC, I would just skip 4th edition. With all the angst...

    Starcraft RPG: Who would be interested?

    I'm not interested in a new rpg, but I would love a Starcraft source book for d20 Future. It would be a "definite buy" on my list.

    Defense Bonus, Armor as DR, & the Number Crunching (what, if anything, am I missing?)

    I ran a game using the Armor as Damage Reduction rule. I found that without a mechanic to increase weapon damage (other than Power Attack) that most characters had to either add energy damage to their weapons or use two-handed weapons. Otherwise, they could not significantly hurt their...

    Do your PCs spend money on non adventureing things?

    It does depend on the campaign and the amount of downtime. My characters always tip the help. Good service is not so hard to find if you are generous. Also, I had one of my characters use his money to help out a number of orphanges. He would spend money to get the buildings fixed up, make...

    Preferred Non-Dragon Flying Mount?

    I voted Yrthak, but I would have perferred to vote for a Dragonne. However, I think the Yrthak makes an impressive if unusual mount.

    How much combat features/d in your AD&D (1e) games?

    At least I named my characters. Otherwise, it was blood bath galore. There was one campaign where we had to make up 7 character before the game started. The DM didn't want to have to wait for players to make new characters WHEN their characters died. As I only lost two characters, I count...

    Whould you buy a system-free setting?

    I would certainly buy the setting if I found it inspiring. However, special effects like magic may pose a challenge without an included ruleset. Mainly because special effects in general have a strong impact on the setting. Without guidelines, they can be problematic. All in all, I would...

    d20 Rifts

    After a brief glance, I noted that the more missiles you fire the less accurate your attack. Is this written as intended? Or did I read it wrong?

    Complete series, where next?

    If it is the Complete Nymph, I'll buy it ;) I wouldn't mind seeing the following: Complete Archer focusing on missile wielding characters. Complete Master focusing on monks and other unarmed fighters. Complete Hero addendum to the Book of Exalted Deeds. Complete Villain addendum to...

    Which spell-like ability did you ask Santa for this year?

    Definitely Teleport. I'm tired of the holiday shopping traffic jams.

    Skills That Should be Handy for an Adventurer...But Aren't in Actual Play.

    I voted for four skills: Appraise, Craft, Forgery, and Profession. These skills should be useful, but in actual play they come up lacking. Appraise: learning the value of an item. In practice, this skill eats up a lot of time that is better spent playing the adventure. As to why this isn't...

    Sacred Cow Death Watch: Do you use material components?

    In the games I run, I don't use spell components. However in the case of spells with expensive spell component(s) (50gp+), the caster must pay 1xp per 5gp of the listed material component(s). I figure that some spells require the caster to expend a portion of their life force to work.

    Most gamer friendly hotel in Indy during Gen Con?

    Thus far, I've stayed at both the Omni and the Marriott. Both are good hotels with great service, but other than the lemonade in the Marriott lobby, there is nothing free. Buffet breakfast can run you around $15, but it is very filling, and you can easily forgo lunch. As far as gaming, I...

    Anti-aging spell

    My initial thought is that the spell is not balanced for its level. I think that at 3rd level, the spell's target should be personal not creature. Otherwise, your campaign will have to deal with the rich living forever. Maybe that is how it is in your campaign? On second thought, the balance...

    Rate D1-16: Dragonlance

    As I felt the need to add a few touches of my own, I gave them an 8. I think that the Dragonlance (DL) modules make for a great campaign. As my long running DL campaign nears its end, I think that my players will remember these modules fondly.
