There are a lot of great ideas here, and I really liked the sample followers at the end.This might be going too far afield (since a lot of this isn't follower-specific, per se), but I wonder if it'd be worthwhile talking about having followers who are adventuring with you setting up nonmagical defenses for setting up camps and such. Have a rogue with ranks in Craft (trapmaking) and Craft (alchemy) (for poison) and checking some of the lower-level traps in things like the DMG, Complete Adventure,r and Complete Scoundrel, along with some low-level spells, and you can quickly turn your camp into a death-trap for any low CR bad guys who want to try and kill you at night (even with no-sleep followers).I also really, really wish you'd write an article on this subject for Pathfinder. The 3.5 version is not the same, since it references a lot of 3.5 supplements that Pathfinder doesn't have (though it has <a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com" target="_blank">the d20PFSRD</a> instead).Also, it sounds like the anti-dying band-aid may have an issue regarding how, exactly, it works.That said, this is a superlative article; you should be very proud!</blockquote>
