    Flumphs?

    As a GM who converted to D&D when the 3rd Edition was released in 2000, some of the more obscure monsters of D&D's past are totally unknown to me. Recently I got my copy of Dungeon 118 which contains the "Box of Flumph" adventure and the official conversion of "D&D's lovable loser". Can...

    Starting a campaign for two players

    I'm going to start a D&D 3.5 campaign for an extremely small group of just two people. This seems like a perfect opportunity to include some rule changes out of Unearthed Arcana. My goal: Running the Dungeon adventure path series "The Shackled City" without needing to heavily modify each...

    Grappling: Multiple Attacks / How many BABs does a character have?

    A question regarding grappling and iterative attacks: When a character/creature has multiple attacks and therefore can attempt multiple grapple checks per round, are the grapple checks following the first one modified like normal iterative attacks? Example: Medium Creature with BAB 12/7/2 and...

    Precision damage // Grappled when stunned

    Two rules question situations came up in our last session: 1. Precision damage: One player has a fighter/duelist [the DMG version] whose character gets the +1d6 extra damage class feature. Like the extra damage from a flaming sword this 1d6 won't get multiplied when scoring a critical hit...

    [OT] hong & some others: Kitten avatar pictures

    Is it just me, or do more and more users have pictures of cute kittens as their board avatar, eg. hong? Since I love all things related to cats: Where did you get these pictures from? Is there any good website filled with kitten pictures? Entropy *has a soft spot for small cats in his black DM...

    [FR] Where do the Avariel live?

    Since my group takes a short pause in our regular campaign, one of my players is going to run a Forgotten Realms one shot adventure and even lets me play an Avariel (the winged elves; I wanted to play one of those since Baldurs Gate II :) ). Strange thing is that I cannot find the place where...

    Superhero RPGS

    Last week I made the mistake to install the PC game "Freedom Force" once again (one of my all time favourites :D). While playing it struck me that a Superhero RPG would be a great thing when our group needs the occasional bit of Fantasy pause. While not all of us read comics (including me), we...

    CR, DR and dead heroes...

    [A&EG] Spoilers for the Adventure Path Series!

    Three of the Artifacts in this book are from the last two adventures of the WotC Adventure Path series [Lord of the Iron Fortress & Bastion of Broken Souls]. Wizards is even kind enough to give a very short summary of the LotIF plot and what artifacts can be found in BoBS. They even tell you...

    When to use the "special" attacks?

    Hi everyone, how do I get my players to use some of the "special" attack options of D&D such as Tripping, Grappling, Attacking held objects,...? Most fights are resolved in nearly the same way every time: 1. If Player = spellcaster: Cast highest damage spell available. If Player = Fighter...
