Like, hmm, a thayan FR campaign or anything set in the FR. Their privilege - because they define the world, write up the adventures and try to make the story fun for their players. If monstrous swords step on their toes... well... be  Actually, while we are at it, lets combine gun-powder weaponry smack into melee weapons, as done in FF-VIII. Sorry chum, but this is D20 Fantasy, and not BESM-Manga hour....  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> As for his assumption, that EWP-Bastard sword and EWP-heavy weapons (care for a precise reference of that ? It's neither in MoF, and nor in RoF EDIT : found it among the wepaon materials ) might not be stacking, it sounds rather like a house rule/GM's call, but that is within his rights as well. EDIT : besides them doing very similar things (allowing the user to wield an oversized weapon one-handedly) and being from different editions (read: EWP-heavy, never a core rule was written long before anyone even thought of Monkey Grip). I can actually understand him deciding that the two EWPs were doing almost exactly the same thing and hence not stacking - the normal bastard sword being a "heavy weapon" in disguise, to begin with. It's his campaign after all, so he makes the rules. And, if he were really mean and feeling nasty about it , he would actually let you spend the feats and even weedle that ultra-rare sword out of him (for some other crippling concessions - it justabout stretches the resources of a first level char, just ever so slightly ) , then nail you with it. Say, by having you meet up with another guy built on the same premises as you are - and having him chop you up.... Or having that ultra-rare sword damaged, cursed or even destroyed - and it being something incredibly rare, making it very hard for you to regain/reforge etc one.As general advice : Chill down some - nothing is going to be resolved by pixxxing him off, or vice versa, and the fun of everyone else at the table suffers/will suffer as well. Competetive spirit is nice and fine at times, but taken to the extremes, it only ruins the game. If you cannot/want not to chill over it, parting ways may be the only alternative.</blockquote>
