Did someone write up a WOF rule set while I was not looking, or have we been reduced to having furious ad hominem laced arguments about games that don't even fucking exist? Going back to the op, I think if you wanted to adapt WOF to urban fantasy, or at least Shadowrun, you would want to make the wh...

I liked morrowind, but it had shit for tactical combat. Seriously, chain buffing yourself with potions made you that much better than else tactics were meaningless. When you are so badass that the system can't even display your stats by the time you hit the second town, what you do in combat just do...

Core only caster druids have it pretty bad really. Looking at save spells, Level 1 has the best level 1 save or lose in the game, entangle. Level 2 has got nothing for non animals. Level 3 has got dominate animal and contagion, which both blow. Level 4 has...uh...command plants and repel vermin. Lev...

Of those choices the only one I have played is Rifts. And all I can say is don't choose Rifts. Seriously, I like Rifts but all the mechanics are shockingly bad. I think I played for more than a year and I still don't really understand everything. It's one of those books where you pretty much have to...

Diablo is the huge sticking point for a summoner necro. He just deals out way too fucking much area effect damage. If you have decrepify and a clay golem, that can help a lot. Your level is really important when fighting him. The first time I did it I got smashed again and again. the second time I p...

The 3.5 archer is actually pretty doable. It's rough in the beginning and you probably just want to carry a halberd or something and chop fools up. But once you can get a decent composite bow you can generally put out enough damage to drop a level appropriate foe. You can generally get a decent bow ...

I never played 3.0, but I did do some 3.5 archery. Here are some suggestions. Horse archery is really powerful. Having a horse and a bow will even kill traditional stumping monsters like that giant fucking crab. Even just having a regular horse will pump your speed up to uncatchable, but 3.0 also ha...

what about Monsters Do It Differently? Monsters take 10 on attack / defense rolls. Players rolls it out. Your player is rolling something any time he attacks or IS attacked, but you don't have to worry about monster rolls except when it's a BBEG. In addition to what souran said, this causes some pr...

I would generally use silent image to drop a fake stinking cloud or cloud kill on top of my own party. They would know it was fake a soon as they tired to breathe and get to see through it. Then everyone starts shooting outwards until someone figures it out. Combine with real cloud spells for best r...

If you want to be a patent lawyer there are special requirements.

That being said, I highly recommend you stay out of the legal...
