What is the name of a person who professionally tends to an orchard? Might it depend on the crop? Are they just farmers? I'd imagine there'd be a more specific term...

I've been out of the loop for a bit, so excuse my 4E innocence. I've noticed a few references to triple starting hit points, but I didn't see anything about that on our 4E Info Page. Is this confirmed (as much as anything)? Source? Or is it such common knowledge that it's truth is taken for...

I'm looking for a game that can be played by only two players. My girlfriend and I need something to actively do together around the house. I don't know many board games aside from the classics like Risk, Monopoly, chess, etc. And most of those games are much more suited to a group of people...

When 3E came out, I let my subscription die. It seemed like their "back to the dungeon" theme translated to "gone with the plot". :\ Is the magazine still like that? Is it better? How many adventures per magazine nowadays? And they threw Polyhedron out of Dungeon, didn't they?

Simple curiosity :)

I have Adobe Photoshop, and I see the option to save a file as a PDF. The real problem is how I can transfer a text file to Photoshop and get it to come out looking like it started. Or even how I could type my own text into Photoshop and have it work like a word processor. The BEST thing would...

Since I can get a CS account now (RPGnow won't let me buy their stuff :confused: ) I was looking at the options I could sign up for. The one that I've always wanted is the "Find more posts by this member" button. Is that included with the Search function or the Who's Who function?

Does anyone have some insight as to why there's no D&D magazines besides Dragon and Dungeon? I'd think that with all the d20 publishers, someone would have done it by now.

How common are all those new, wacky weapons in your campaign? Ya know, spiked chains, orc double axes, double swords, dwarven urgoshes, gnome hook hammers *snicker*. I practically never use any of them, and I just have such a hard time imagining them with a straight face... even in my fantasy...

I was looking at another templated thing at WotC's site, and there was one creature that was a half demon/half elf. Does that mean that it's an elf with the half demon template, or a half-elf? If it means elf, what would you call the child of a demon and a half elf? Just idle wondering...

A ranger PC IMC wants to specialize in killing undead, and there's some undead hunter PrC that's made for rangers IIRC... and no, it's not the Hunter of the Dead in CW, because that requires Turn Undead :/ Does this sound familiar to someone? If someone could tell me what book such a PrC is in...

A player of mine has my BoED, but I didn't count on wanting to use it for tonights game. Can anyone share (in a brief, crunchy, hopefully non-violating way) what a 3rd level with Vow of Poverty gets? EDIT: Nevermind, I just realized that I need it for like 8 other things, so I'll just suck it...

I was reviewing the 3.5 rules for disarming for my game tonight, and I got a little tripped up... The specific encounter will involve a goblin with a whip who will try to disarm someone. I see that the defender gets an AoO, and damage causes the disarm attempt to fail. But what happens if, like...

As title, do characters get a feat every 3rd level like in D&D, or just when their bonus feats are listed in the classes? Ok, I know there's a reason it doesn't have this info in the SRD. I know I should go out and buy the book. But come on! It's Memorial Day! I'll buy the book on my next day...

I started reading through the d20 Modern SRD, and I really like it! I think I'd actually pick up the book if there was anyone around to game with... Anyhow, I was reading about the Tough Hero, and due to the way the SRD is formatted, I'm not sure if Second Wind is a seperate talent from Robust...

I have a random, evil, problem, and I hope a kind soul might help me out :D I'm also searching Google and the like, but I figure any help I can get is worth having. (Currently I'm on my girlfriend's computer, BTW.) The Problem: My computer won't load any webpages. It will dial up, and I can use...

A simple poll for it's own sake. Nothing more, nothing less ;)

Does anyone use any type of RL-style languages? For example, English is an offshoot of German, so learning one aids the other? Or maybe Sylvan to Elven? Does anyone even bother with languages? I've been using the same languages and basic world map forever. After tons of gaming, I'm putting in...

How did standing armies work from a soldier's point of view? I know how America's army works now, though I imagine it was much different long ago. A few specific questions to get brains rolling. All of this assumes a feudal European setting, since that most closely resembles my D&D campaigns...

I've seen the rules for buying off Level Adjustment. I like the idea, but I don't like the method. Too clunky. Could a permanent penalty to experience achieve the same results? Like, every +1 of LA is equal to a 5% XP penalty, or something along those lines? So a +2 LA creature would have a 10%...
