Hey, I was just wondering what people's opinions are on "Iron Kingdoms" by Privateer Press? I've been looking around online for information concerning it and I can't seem to find too much that it very solid. From what I read/see, I don't get a good feel for the gaming world and at what the...

A small debate has sprung up in our (soon to be started) game. With only two players, we've decided to up the stakes and run a gestalt game. Okay...no problem. One PC wants to run a Runechild (Monte Cook) with the human benefits (skill points and bonus feat) along with the racial benefits of...

The Sunblade is listed as: Just a few questions, which I have a sinking feeling have probably been addressed, but I haven't managed to find in my looking through some of the older posts. How is a Sunblade treated for Power Attack? How is a Sunblade treated in terms of damage delt - piercing...

Should have dropped this in the other thread I started, but oh well... For an Intelligent magical weapon, does the weapon need to be help in the character's hand in order to use its powers? Can it see/hear (including Blindsense and Darkvision) even when sheathed? Are continuous use powers...

Question here: If I wanted to drop a continuous Shield ability on a weapon, what would the cost be if I wanted to consider that ability as one of an intelligent weapon's Greater Powers? What effect, if any, would this have if applied to a 7th level Kensai's weapon? Thanks!

Looking for some help here with the spell Whirling Blade from Complete Arcane. Its text follows: The question: can these ranged attacks be used to make Trip or Sundering attacks? Nothing in the text seems to disallow it. Am I forgetting anything that might be someplace. I figure that a...

Hey all, I'm trying to locate a thread from a few months ago entitled "Useless Magical Items" or such. My link to it is, unfortunately, no longer functioning and I - sadly - don't have the Search option. I searched pages 15-50 without any luck. There was an item in there I really wanted to...

This question is way out there and I doubt there is any answer to get a 'yes' to this, but I'm gonna give it a try for curiosity's sake. Is there anyway to increase a 5' step to a 10' step? As I said, I doubt, but just curious.

I only have the Eberron Campaign Setting and enjoyed the write up on the Daelkyr. I was wondering what other suppliments and books from the Eberron setting may have a fair amount of information in them concerning the Daelkyr. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

We're going to be beginning a game soon and with only two PCs we took into consideration the Gestalt rules to bump up the power level for the PCs a bit. There are several factors into this (this way the DM doesn't have to prepare as many NPCs to keep the part up at the appropriate level and the...

Been a while since I posted...I missed these boards while they were down. Anyway, on with the question. We're tossing together some characters and my player has the idea of using Standstill (I'm not sure where this is from - a feat or a PrC ability so some help here might be needed or I might...

Hey all, Hope everyone has had a good New Years. I was wondering what everyone's opinion on the Sudden Metamagic Feats from Complete Arcane. The lack of any prerequisites for these spells is certainly something I question. As the DM, I know I have final say, but I've had an opinion and...

I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I wanted to inquire again (since I couldn't find any old threads) about the difference in physical descriptions between whether a spell fails due to SR or if the creature makes the Saving Throw. If a PC casts a spell at the creature and the...

I was looking over a character for a friend of mine (participating in a campaign that I am not currently participating within) and something just keeps nagging me about her that I can't quite put my finger on. I think she's missing something but just don't know what. I was hoping someone here...

Howdy all, Questions about this armor. I know its 3.0, though I think it translates into 3.5 fairly well. However, one question I have is that in the listing it is listed as Full Plate +2 though it is listed as being one size category lighter (i.e., medium armor). While never saying why is...

I was glancing through the Eberron Game Setting after a friend of mine spoke to me about the Artificer. I took a little time and read over the Artificer and the Homunculus sections and noticed a difference. Namely, in the Artificer's Ability description for Craft Homunculus it says that to...

I just wanted to try to pick apart some theories and numbers concerning the topic listed above. Has anyone every really delved into the number crunching for such a fight? I can't recall every really going into a fight in a fairly unmagical, head-to-head combat between heavily armed/armored...

Heya all, I was wondering if someone might be able to help me out on trying to break down the cost for a Hat of Disguise. The 3.5 DMG lists it at a price of 1,800gp. So, I tried to break it down pricewise. I figured it to be a Continuous Item, so it would be Spell Level x Caster Level x...

Hi all, I'm going to finally get started on a calendar for a homebrew game. Just looking at reality of where our modern day calender comes from and how it evolved, I have more then a few ideas and notions about how to create it. However, one question I had was how might a fantasy setting...

Just a question here to toss out concerning good aligned dragons...just how greedy are they? When I hear good, I do admit that I think of someone willing to give money to help a good cause. A dragon's greed/covetousness of wealth is legendary. So, would a good dragon do this? Would a Gold...
