Has anyone considered removing raw feet-based distances in combat and using rough approximations? For instance, the enemies you're facing are within Short range, so you can move up to them with a move action and attack, if they were Medium range or longer, it might take you longer to reach them...

Hey folks, I'm considering allowing the use of the Complete series of books in my campaign, particularly the PrCs, and was curious if there are any "gotchas" I should be wary of (ie: imbalanced/overpowered PrCs and feats) before I allow them. Anyone got any insight?

I was looking over Unearthed Arcana, wondering which variants I'd like to make use of for my upcoming Warcraft campaign, and I noticed something odd about the alternate XP system. Why, exactly, do they have an alternate XP table if the awards are proporionately the same as XP awards were before...

I'm running an Urban Arcana game that has an awful lot to do with demons and devils from D&D, and I'm considering using the DR rules from D&D 3.5. Has anyone done this before, and if so, have they had any major issues with it that one should be aware of? Also, there's a few advanced and...

I was considering making a Tiefling descended from a Marilith with 4 arms, but I can't find any information in Savage Species on whether having 4 arms is worth an additional LA +1. Am I missing something or should it just not be worth anything special? What do you think? EDIT: Changed message...

Hey all, I was just wondering (cause I can't find mention in the book) but characters don't get bonus languages equal to their intelligence bonus in d20 modern, do they?

Hey all, Though the title may seem off topic, it's quite on-topic (IMHO). For my upcoming Urban Arcana game, I'm going to be advancing the FR setting to the modern day. I plan to have all the basic races of the PHB still around, possibly with some others (ie Orcs, Drow, etc). All the...

I was trying to think of a new name for my current campaign just lately and I began to wonder: how many other people name their D&D campaigns. Obviously, the setting has a name, but do you name the campaign as well? My current Forgotten Realms campaign is called Shadow Puppets, and my friend's...

Hey everybody. My friend and I were talking about languages in D&D cause we noticed Ravenloft doesn't have a common tongue, and I came to the conclusion that isn't it odd how in some settings (Forgotten Realms and Greyhawk in particular, I suppose) everybody speaks the common tongue? So much so...

Hey all, Despite the Tiefling being an LA +1 (ECL 2) creature. I thought up a way so players could play them at first level. Simple as this... Race: Pick Tiefling, as normal. Class: Pick an actual class (fighter, cleric, etc). Instead of applying all the racial traits of the Tiefling, just...

Hey all, I was creating a Succubus character earlier for the heck of it and something came up. I don't know if this might've been answered before, but I couldn't find anything on it, so sorry if you're somehow offended. In any case, the question is, a monster class only gets feats when they're...

With all these modern d20 RPGs coming out, almost every one of them handles the rules for rapid fire weaponry differently. My question is, in your humble opinion, which is the best method for handling this, and why?

With the recent discussion on Egyptian, Greek, and Roman gods in another thread, it's piqued my curiosity to know who, if anybody, is running a historically themed campaign? Not so much taking place on the real world, but just themed as such. If so, tell us about it here. How well is it going...
