I really hate how all the divive have different mechanics now. The newer WotC books are somewhat inconsistent in their rulings. Anyway, I heavily revised the divine feats in my campaign. I made them all standard actions but I allow Quicken Turning to be applied to them (once per round). I...

There is one game I've ALWAYS wanted to play but never spent enough time to track down the books... GHOSTBUSTERS!! Oh man, I so wanted to play that game and set it my home town. It would be so much fun to go bust ghosts in all of your friend's houses or your school! I would make it so campy...

"Help, I'm being mugged!!"

I would love to do this. I've talked about it with multiple groups but it ever came up. I think it would be a blast. I wanted to base it on the Thief video game. If I could capture the mood and feel of the world that games provokes and put it into a campaign, it would be like sweet and...

Not much love for paladins, gnomes, or monks. How sad. My decisions are mostly based on bad experiences in past campaigns which is why I tend to be pretty open to what my players want to play. I've been in groups where low-magic and restrictions were an attempt to thwart "supposed"...

Me too. That book actually sounds pretty cool.

I think I would like this group. :D I hate saying "no" to my players. Of course sometimes you have to but I'll at least listen to anything. I try to tell the players what their options are up front (races available, PrC rules, etc) so they know going what their choices are. Just letting...

I agree. You know something's wrong when there is a two-page discussion on whether or not a character could still have a mule. Please. If this took up this much time in my game, it would be dropped in a second. VoP is lame.

I'm not sure I like the Conc check to avoid AoO's. That doesn't really make sense to me. Anyway, I use Conc checks to allow characters to do more damage to objects. I even made a feat to go along with it: Mind Over Matter [General] You can harness your inner ki to shatter objects...

Amen and a hallelujah. I feel everytime a new book comes out, I have to spend a day and half going through it and house ruling it to death. I RARELY use anything as-is anymore. I would love some books on creating adventures or short scenarios with detailed maps, etc. I'm up to my eyeballs...

I ran a good portion of CotSQ and wasn't a big fan of it honestly. Be prepared for LOTS of combat. If you are a spellcaster, make sure you take Spell Penetration. The drow get very annoying VERY fast. I found that the module read a lot better than it played.

I'm playing a Drd 3/Wiz 3/MT 8 right now and it's a blast. The spell lists really compliment each other nicely. I've been playing this class before CD came out (and thus the Practiced Spellcaster feat) but the only real problem I've had is beating SR (and I have Spell Penetration). I use a...

I kind of agree. The more I play 3ed (I've been playing it since it came) the more I find myself going back to the core books. I'm just becoming desensitized to all the new "stuff" that's out now.

That Divine Trickster is VERY powerful. Full casting, +5d6 sneak attack, slippery mind AND hide in plain sight?!?! HOLY! All that for clr 3/rog 3 req's. Anyway, I love the clr/rog concept and I actually made my own Divine Trickster: Requirements To qualify to become a divine trickster, a...

Relic, those are definitely some cool concepts but I think you took the half-elf and half-orc from being borderline weak to too powerful. I'm really not sure what these weapons have to do with being a half-elf. I can see if the half-elf was raised by elves he might know an elven weapon but...

I use the grid as much as possible. I've actually started to tailor any maps I create to the size of the battlemat (I have a big one). I love the fact that I can draw out a huge portion of the map and have the players go anywhere they want. I find it really opens up combat and gives the...

If you already have the Manual of the Planes, what new does this have to offer? I mean 3.0 vs 3.5 aside, do we really need two planar books?

My advice? Don't take VoP. Aside from it being cheesy, it's a role-playing and campaign nightmare. I was in a group with a VoP and monk and we had to jump through flaming hoops to justify what he could take, pick up, touch, etc. It was just annoying and offered extremely little return in the...

I kind of like this but I do think it's a bit powerful. I might actually use this in the future but I will probably change it to 1 free 18, roll 4d6 6 times, reroll 1's and pick the best 5 for the rest of your stats. Right now, I use what I call the point pool or linear point-buy. It's a...
