    If a target has Mirror Image going, and a spellcaster with a touch spell (Inflict Moderate Wounds) makes the touch attack roll, but finds he has touched an illusory duplicate, is the touch spell now lost as the illusory duplicate disappates, or can the touch spell be tried again next round?

    Star Wars d20 - homebrew rules?

    Hey I am looking for a set of Star Wars d20 rules that anyone's developed on their own, i.e. a homebrew version versus purchasing the WOTC books, something that presents someones own interpretation of the Star Wars universe. I just had a hunch that someone may have a boiled down set of rules for...

    RPG Tournament play - tell me more

    Hello, For those getting back from GenCon or who've been to gaming cons before, I would like to know more about RPG tournament play. I understand that some tourney games use a point system, or some might have players choose the best other player, and so on to determine individual "winners" or a...

    Looking for free gunpowder rules

    Looking at the D20 SRD on Wotc's page, I don't see gunpowder weapons. I would like to run a gunpowder era game and would like to see what kind of personal weapon stats, cannon and related heavy weapon stats, gunpowder feats are out there for download/viewing for free. I'd also be interested in...

    Touch attack spells & holding the charge

    Hello, I just wanted to make sure I understand soemthing here about touch spells. In the player's handbook, in the Magic chapter under "Touch attack spells and holding the charge," it indicates that a spellcaster can keep trying touch attacks round after round if the spell is not discharged in...

    Spellcraft for identifying a wand's spell?

    Can the Spellcraft skill be used to identify a wand's spell as it is activated? The skill description seems to focus on spells as they are being cast, not magic item activation, or spell effects already in place. If the Spellcraft skill could be used to identify a wand's spell as the wand is...

    Readied "Spiritual Weapon" spell to disrupt other spellcaster?

    Hey, a player in my game wants to ready his Spiritual Weapon spell and unleash it when an enemy spellcaster is going to cast his spell. Can this be pulled off, so that the spirtual weapon that is created tries to disrupt to spell? Presumably the enemy spellcaster wouldn't be casting defensive...

    Grease spell question

    Hello. In the game that I DM, a player has cast Grease on a weapon wielded by an enemy. I let the weapon make the Reflex save, and the weapon's save is much better than the enemy's. However, the wording of the spell in the PH is potentially ambiguous; is it the item or the creature bearing the...

    [d20 CoC] Nightfall on Planet Earth

    Nightfall on Planet Earth is my first d20 Call of Cthulhu scenario, in fact the first CoC game I've GM'd. The game begins in Boston, 1930. I invited 3 players to join and they graciously accepted. I ran a 4th party member as an NPC. Characters were pre-generated by me. The characters are...

    No alignment

    (Sorry if this topic has been hashed and rehashed) I'd like to run my next campaign with no concept of Alignment. This would mean that alignment-specific spells and abilities would either be removed from the game or changed (i.e. Detect Evil could be Detect Evil Intent or Detect Creatures that...

    Some new CoC feats

    Here are 4 new feats I am going to include in a new 1920's Call of Cthulhu d20 campaign; characters are pregenerated and I have made feats to coincide with the theme of a character. I would rate some of them as powerful, but not so much that the game would be unbalanced. However, I want to tweak...
