That JaronK is a sad piece of shit. I wonder if he's still trying to claim that he did that himself.

Edit, because I had given away information I was supposed to keep to myself. And also because the part of the post I now got rid of was entirely pointless anyway.

So why are you flailing in a thread about hating 4E? Cause you know, we hate it?
My two theories.

1.) He seriously has nothing better to do.

2.) He gets turned on by this, in some very, VERY weird way.

And...are you done pissing yourself while hating on casters? Because if you are, you can move along and try to find something else to do...if you have the brain capacity for it.

Knowing something about the tactics of drawing customers to them, I have the odd feeling that Paizo might have an advantage over WotC. Let's just call it a hunch, but I usually end up being right when I get a bad feeling about something. Though I'd refuse to admit it if I did have some kind of power...

Well, that's interesting. And I said that because if I said "good news", I am sure another legion of Pathfanatics would jump at me from somewhere. But hey, I don't like PF that much and I don't like 4e much either. So, I'm fine with just looking from the side what happens next.

See, it actually IS about levels and not about WHICH levels you have in LotR. Because apparently Fighters (or at least non-casters) could kill gods in duels.

I think that depends on the campaign. To me it seems that the adventurers are usually the ones being attacked when it comes to Orcs and Goblins. Last time our group was actually being the offending party was when our Chaotic Evil Dwarf shot a Lizardfolk village with a cannon...FOR THE HELL OF IT. (I...

Do note of one thing. Not only was Gandalf more experienced than the rest of the crew in LotR (if we wanted to use D&D stats for them, I am sure Gandalf would be AT LEAST three levels higher than the others), but he was also a greater being, something like a demigod of some kind. If Aragorn or L...

Well, that means I will just have to pugrade the feats that the players do want to use, if they want to use any non-Tome ones. I mess around with homebrew stuff anyway (with the exception of classes), so I'm sure it shouldn't be too hard. Speaking of homebrews, the homebrew forum seems rather quiet.

Yeah, that's basically what I thought.

(Basically, I simply assume that most people who wa...

Looks very nice. And I cannot help but wonder if I could get some of those classes to work with other races with a little tweaking (I happen to have one of my homebrews partly inspired by the Alraune, for example). And I really hope my group won't mind me trying out any of the stuff on this suppleme...

Rule Conversions?

Okay, I didn't know whether this belonged in the Homebrew forum or in this one, but I'm gonna ask this here just so I can actually get on with this. If I wanted to use the Tome material in a D&D game, how much do I need to alter the rules and such in the normal 3.5 books? Also, are there any boo...

Fire Emblem I say. I doubt many have heard of it, but it's fun whenever the RNG IS NOT trying to get all your character raped up the butt. Because character death is PERMANENT and you have to start an entire map all over if you don't want to lose someone who accidentally died. Also, being a tactical...

Most, if not all of us seem to agree that the default nine-point alignment grid/axis sucks. But now that we know that, why won't we try and come up with an alternative? Or better yet, do we even NEED an alternative? Some people would probably be fine with thinking through their actions in a case-by-...

Sabs has it right. In most campaigns that I have seen (though not all) EVIL is objective to a certain degree. Demons, Yugoloths and Devils are the best examples of this, because they're FUCKING EVIL INCARNATE, no matter what morale system you decide to go by in your games, because they are ALWAYS EV...
