    D&D 3E/3.5 Will you still play 3.5?

    Either/Or It doesn't matter to me. It's all about sitting around the table and getting some face time with my friends. If 4e does that, great. If it's still 3.5, thats great too. That being said, I am getting a nice warm feeling about 4e based on the information currently available.

    A 3-year-old at Casino Royale!?

    It's interesting that you say that my arguments seem rather selfish. I was thinking the same thing when reading the arguments against allowing kids in restaurants and theaters. I see a lot of people saying, "MY time was ruined because someone didn't act according to how I wanted them to act."...

    Birthday (11/23)!

    Happy birthday! No need for a sad face, I've thoroughly enjoyed being 35 this past year. It's not nearly as old as it appeared when I was 25.

    A 3-year-old at Casino Royale!?

    I have really enjoyed reading this thread this morning. It has been very enlightening to see both sides argued so well. I am not sure I can add anything new, but I am going to put in my 2 cents anyway. I think that most of simplicity's arguments state my general view. I am not going to let...

    Which Thanksgiving do you celebrate?

    American. Won't be celebrating this year though. I'm working so the the family is heading to my wife's folks place for the feast. Meanwhile I will be working 12 hour shifts and enjoying a Thanksgiving pizza. If I am feeling festive I might try and mold the pizza into a turkey shape though!!

    Palm Bay, FL Looking for game

    I am looking for a game in the Palm Bay/Melbourne area. I have been playing playing off and on since about '82. I prefer D&D but am open to just about anything. Thanks for reading and I look forward to gaming with you!

    Is casting Evil spells an evil act?

    I voted it is an evil act. That's how we house rule it. However, I tend to agree with Hypersmurf about the RAW

    Is casting a spell with the Evil descriptor an Evil act?

    Ummm... no, but thanks for jumping to erroneous conclusions. We house-rule that it is an evil act and the DM decides the consequences of repeated evil acts upon the character's alignment. Our group is happy with that. I am simply looking to see what the RAW says since I couldn't find anything...

    Is casting a spell with the Evil descriptor an Evil act?

    I would say it has to do with the spell description: That sounds evil to me. :) I agree with most of the rationale here, and we have always house-ruled that casting an evil spell is an evil act (and functions according to IamTheTest's post). I think that the rules imply that it is, but what...

    Is casting a spell with the Evil descriptor an Evil act?

    Just what the title asks. If a caster casts a spell with the evil descriptor, is that an evil act? Example: Summon Monster is used to summon a creature with the fiendish template, the spell gains the evil descriptor (maybe lawful or chaotic as well but that's irrelevant to my question)...

    Monks using weapons, is it worth it?

    I agree with Agamemnon. And I would interpret this as meaning that you can't use Stunning Fist 'through' your weapons since it is not specifically stated as it is with the Flurry of Blows. However you could still use Stunning Fist while holding a monk weapon in each hand or even with your...

    My sentiments exactly.

    OotS #372 is up

    Yeah, on his forums he said that he is going to try and do a strip a day until this little sideplot is finished so that we can get back and see what is happening to poor Elan.

    Why I love D&D this week

    You are all going to get me fired! Darn it all!!! First I laugh out loud at the new OotS and now PKitty makes me blow soda out of my nose and nearly die while laughing/choking. I swear, everyone in these online forums is out to get me!!! If I get fired, it's all your fault...it's got...

    New OotS is up. (#367)

    Thog is my hero It's official. Thog is my new favorite character in the strip. It all started with the Thog like puppies and Majesty of the Gumdrop mountains schtick but this strip officially put him over the top. The Nale nail not-Nale speech was beautiful (after the 3rd read anyway) and...

    Is gaming without map and minis really bad?

    Been playing since about '83 or so. For the majority of those years, we didn't use minis. We use 'em now though for about the past 5 or 6 years. I have to say, I prefer running combats with the minis. (besides, I find it relaxing to paint 'em). It is a matter of personal preference and...

    Iconic Monster Use - The Aboleth

    I can only ever remember encountering one once as a player and have never used one as a DM.

    Iconic Monster Use - The Displacer Beast

    I voted 13-14 times. It might actually be more. I've been playing since about '83 and get confused sometimes... :)

    Oots #366 is up.

    I was wrong...it's "Roy" Just wanted to let everyone know that I was wrong. Rich Burlew cleared this up over on the Giant in the Playground boards. He said that Nale definitely says "Roy" and NOT "Ray". Ah well, neither the first nor the last time I've been wrong...
