The Gaming Den

I feel for you. I ehlped my dad replace the roof not to long ago.

You know, I heard a good straw roof lasts a really long time. Also, if you have a block association, they will explode after seeing it.

Of course, even if we for some reason allowed all that bllshit, JaronK is still purchasing a "mount" that he is personally too large to ride. It's a large flyer with no special carrying capacity powers, so it can't carry a medium character into battle as a mount. And he's a medium charact...

Already happened. Heck, you can get yourself a free magic lesson http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=LV5cynjwxCc.

That's a wonderful story. My step dad died from cancer a couple years ago. It's not a pretty thing, but it is good that your community is helping out.

And they said California had gone to McCain earlier... Yeah, what was up with that? I still waiting with baited breath however. According to CNN, Obama is in front in my home state of Indiana. I can't imagine this place actually going blue. It did. I still don't believe it. I am pretty sure one of ...

Stop playing Morrowind stat. go get fallout 3. Play that instead. If only I had a computer that could run it. Or Oblivion for that matter. My favorite game of Morrowind was when I played as a drunker boxer. I stocked up on the plus 50 str minus 50 int liquor in the first town, chugged a bunch of th...

Ahh internet drama. This is even better than the old fighter vs. caster WOTC threads.

While we are all confessing how we ripped off Frank, I have to admit I find myself using a lot of his phrases. In one of my law classes I am known as the "stab in the face" guy.

Damn right. I don't know what I would do if I did not have this nice cozy box to think in.

Seriously though don't try to get to creative with this. I screwed up a lot of problems like this because I over thought them.

While I hate this things as well, I can't really say this is a bad question. Morbid is defined: mor⋅bid    /ˈmɔrbɪd/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [mawr-bid] Show IPA Pronunciation –adjective 1. suggesting an unhealthy mental state or attitude; u...

Yeah sure. I hate McDonalds and other big corporations too. But it still doesn't excuse the fact that someone wanted money for burning themselves. I mean, the moment I read that she put the coffee between her fucking legs. That's where I said "Ok, this is totally her fault." When you put ...

Considering how I've heard of burglars suing homeowners for personal injury when they fall through ceilings (through the attic), and winning the case, "so tell the court how it was that you received this injury" might not work. This is a myth. I thought it was on snopes but this is the cl...

Bring a sword. You may be challenged to a duel during your stay. You will almost certainly be attacked by ninjas.

I don't know if this is the sort of advice you are looking for, but the one white guy I knew who had dreadlocks seemed self conscious about them in the workplace. He always seemed to think his boss hated them and that he was unfairly judged by them. I would suggest you don't go with dreads if you ha...

You confuse me more and more lately. The average number of arms for humans as a whole is almost 2. Some have less, far fewer have more. As an average it would be almost 2 but not quite since the rare 1 to 1.9 occurences (less than 2, due to something as minor as a missing fingertip or nail) drags t...

If the monster can include horror movie monsters, it makes a lot of sense. How many times do they wander out of the shot and all of sudden they are right in the hero's blind spot?

I find myself disagreeing with this guy more than I agree with him. People whose characters got their swords destroyed by a rust monster and who threw a hissy fit over it. People whose characters died to a hold person spell and who wrote angry letters to Dragon magazine A lot of the material written...

I think you are looking at that the wrong way. Obama would be in a good position if McCain or his supporters started acting like racist douchebags, but that's only because it is a 2 party system and therefore having your opponent shoot himself in the foot is just as good as doing something good your...

Questions inspired by tonight's game: What's the deal with lethal weapons and sucking? Take Gel rounds -- they do more damage, and their drawback is worse armor piercing. But they do more damage even against people in armor. In fact, their sucky piercing is arguably an ADVANTAGE since it means they...

I'd start by simplifying the list. If it were me doing it, it'd look like... Aberration Animal (Contains Vermin as well) Construct Elemental (Outsiders with elemental subtypes) Exemplar (Ousiders with alignment subtypes) Humanoid (Human, dwarf, elf, gnoll, gnome, halfling, goblinoid, orc, aquatic, ...

Speaking of rangers, can anyone think of a good way to make favored enemies a decent class feature. As written, a ranger starts out with a bonus of plus 2 against a certain creature at first level. That sounds sort of cool, but remember that there are 32 different types of creature to select from. T...

So, I'm running another Shadowrun game, starting tomorrow. one player asked me to make a character for him, specifying only that it be as "Elf Adept with a Katana" Here's what I got so far: Body 4 Agility 6 (8) Reaction 5 (6) Strength 4 Charisma 3 Intuition 3 Logic 3 Willpower 3 Edge 1 Ma...

I mean, to go a few pages back and reconsider the gnome flying machine example, I see no reason why "getting a free teleport from a wizard" is not just a fighter's real class ability. You could explain it by saying that wizard's are notoriously paranoid and would never do it for another w...

Honestly whenever I think about jump I just think it needs to be stronger...or not exist as a skill at all. It costs the same to put a skill point in jump as it does to put one in UMD or diplomacy, so you should be getting the same return. That means letting players jump into the stratosphere eventu...

I think you just burned down the forest. Only doing one thing is fine? Let me rephase: Doing one thing, but doing it well, can result in you having a lot of options. Let's say there is a character whose whole shtick is that he can melee well. He's got virtually no ranged capability, but anything th...
