Looks good. I gave him a quick once over and saw nothing amiss.

[MENTION=11520]Scotley[/MENTION]: So am I good to go for posting him in the RG, and to start posting IC?

 

[Scotley]

Yes please. I posted this morning, but I don't see it now.

Thanks. Dannis has been introduced IC.

In D&D, Concentration was a Constitution based skill, and the check worked just like any other skill check. If you spent no points on it, you just got your CON bonus to the check.

In PF it's not a skill, and your bonus scales automatically with level, which works out the same as a free skill point in D&D. But you don't get the 'Class Skill' bonus of +3, and the ability it's tied to depends on your class.

Ooooooo -- K, so if it's not a skill, what the heck is it? Never mind, I just read about it on P. 206-7 of PFR. You know, come to think of it, I've read this section at least twice before, and somehow it never sunk in to me that Concentration was a skill in 3.5. Go figure. I like this way much, much better -- Concentration Check = 1d20 + Caster Level + Relevant Ability Modifier -- it's simple, elegant and doesn't eat skill points for lunch!

It is good in some ways, bad in others.

Yeah, well, that's kind of like saying that gravity is good in some ways but bad in others. It's kinda nice that we stick to the earth, but it sucks to fall down. (Be more careful, and you won't fall down!) But in both cases, THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS.

[For all Scotley's talk of repealing the Law of Gravity, I have an idea that we're pretty much stuck with that one for the long haul. Although....If there was anybody that could do it......]

Repealing the law of gravity...hummmmm. I might have a use for that idea in one of my games.

Gravity is an illusion -- the earth just SUCKS!

In other news...... I have been contemplating the possibilities of starting up a pbp game of AD&D here. Please see this thread.

AD&D, huh? Been a while since I tried that. Well, I was in IVV's AD&D game a few months back, but that seemed to suddenly end.

I don't think I could go back, but I'll gladly cheer you on from the sidelines!
