[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 6002510, member: 87792"] 1: High int warlord with a rapier (martial weapon), buckler and hide armour. At will Brash Assault and encounters including Provoke Overextension. Perfectly valid RAW. 2: There are bow-cleric options in some Dragon magazine somewhere - I forget which one. (Sorry - I just enjoy figuring out how to do things). Interesting - I thought at first you were talking about the 13th Age Escalation dice - adds to PC to hit rolls and starts at 1 and goes up once per round. A couple of ways of tweaking it, and it makes PCs want to save big powers. [quoteIs this just for the sake of legality?[/quote] No. The name Healing Surges is something people hate. And the name doesn't match the effect. Yup. And my answer is always "What are you [I]doing?[/I]" I'd start with the advice "Never tell your players they are in a skill challenge - this is a DM-side tool". Interesting, thaks. I'll have to give it a longer look sometime. There've been a few on rpg.net recently, general reaction was positive. Perhaps. But the other advantage of such domains and the like is that they allow tweaking of the power level of fluffy but sub-optimal builds that should work. Will get back to it :) I like that last kicker - so the first encounter of the day doesn't count for levelling up. Yup. Especially on first priority. Although it's still got to be compatable. Agreed. Thanks! Interesting reading. You seem to be talking about the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_System_License"]GSL[/URL] and the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Game_License"]OGL[/URL] as if they are the same thing. They aren't - and I don't want to touch the GSL with a ten foot pole (and although we can use the OGL we can no longer use the [URL="http://www.earth1066.com/D20FAQ.htm"]D20 license[/URL] - big deal). Which means that it's going back to the [I]3.5[/I] SRD and reverse engineering from there.
