The Gaming Den

OA was updated to 3.5 in Dragon 318. I don't remember what they did to the Ninja Spy.

The party's primary concern isn't significant. Greater teleport can transport multiple people and a lot of gear. The feat version transports only you, and 50lb of gear. It's nowhere near a 7th level spell. Portable. Hole. 1) It's a wish economy item. If you end up with one, the GM knows perfectly w...

Those cardboard tubes that Xmas paper are wrapped in work pretty well, at least for a few hits.

The Wheel of Time series?

Have them be the tops of mountains/buttes that actually mostly exist in another plane (the Ethereal?). The "floating" parts are just what happens to exist on the Prime. They could even move relative to the Prime if their primary plane moves relative to the Prime, but their motion would be ...

I don't like sex.

You're doing it wrong.

What about Kaelik's Stormlord for the blaster mage?

I don't know about level 4, but at level five you should [Giant Frog] the game.

Yeah... as far as the actual Far Realm, I think going there should be pretty much suicide for anyone. I think having the time you come back out be totally random (with you possibly going back in time), and having the amount of randomness based on how long you stayed there, would make sense, also. (A...

I agree with Souran to an extent. Of course CRPGs and MMORPGs have taken away many of the potential P&P RPG players. I would have thought that was obvious... It's not that they prefer CRPGs, it's that those are what they are exposed to first, and get into playing. Then once they're hooked, they'...

Yeah, my labmates and I had many good laughs at this when I was in grad school. Make sure to visit the actual website, and not just the forum (although I hadn't seen the forum before... will have to look it over). Make sure to check out their "gift shop", also.

Silence, infidel! Don't be spreadin' your heathen learnin!

I meant for it to be a Line effect, like a lightning bolt, as you're saying. I guess I didn't word it too carefully... I do want it to be for each attack on a full attack, though. Otherwise I think it is kind of weak. How many guys can you usually catch in a line, anyway? Two Four if you move first...

Added a new feat, Olympic Thrower, inspired by a discussion on another board.

Yeah, thanks for bumping that. I wasn't really hanging around on here back then, and hadn't seen it. It is truly awesome. I also really like the quote in Frank's first post, also. That makes me want to play a fkn paladin.

Ok... since I've asked one stupid question here, I might as well ask some more. So I'm going to be playing a rogue-ish character in an upcoming game that is using all the Tome material. The character has two-weapon fighting and will be using thrown weapons. If I'm reading Tome TWF correctly, he can ...

Thanks. I missed that somehow.

So how do I go about making a decent thrown weapons character in a Tome game, given the 8 item limit? Is there some way to grant any weapon I use an enhancement bonus, so I don't have to take up the majority of my item slots with returning weapons?

So you can continue to summon your dead giant frog, and drop it on people to crush them? That's totally awesome.

I made a Time sphere a while back. I don't know if it will be useful, but here it is: Time Special: Three times per day, you can activate any power from this Sphere as a swift or immediate action, regardless of its normal casting time. Also, you can terminate any effect you create from your Sphere p...

They finally beat the barhgest and his minions with no casualties, and I let them heal back up and then sent a crazed volodni stormlord after them. Instead of just nuking him do death immediately as I thought they would, they tried to use more "clever" tactics and wound up having to flee w...

People can already get items for 100% cost by just buying the item can't they? Or do you restrict access to purchased magic items? I was thinking of adding some kind of system for locating specific magic items for sale using Gather Information, perhaps then the ability to simply obtain any item at ...

I just let people do what you're describing in "Item Acquisition", except without the 50% reduction in cost. I also make crafting cost 100% of the item cost, but no XP. No one gets shit for free (or even half price), but at the same time no one has to waste feats to get the things they wan...

Here is what I do: don't restrict it to druids and wildshape. Let all shapechangers use it, regardless of how they change shape.
