The Gaming Den

Chapter 6: Spells I actually remember there being a lot of funky spells in this chapter. Many of which got reprinted in other sources, but I will give this book credit for this chapter. What can I say, I'm a bit of a sucker for spells that do weird things. Let us crack this open then, I actually am...

In my world, I wrote Halflings as psuedo celtic/germanic people close to nature, while gnomes are a pseudo jawa scavenger/craftsman race picking through the old abandoned elvish and dwarvish ruins for useful bits.

Alright, so twice in a row my boss called me the day before going to work and told me that they didn't need me and to not show up. Other than finding a new job (which I confess to have been doing for the past two months), is there anything I can do legally? Can I file unemployment? Because I'm worki...

D'oh! I was going to talk about that too, I need to start putting more time into these rather than opening the book and a couple beers and doing stream of consciousness crap. Here's a bonus: Sharktooth Staff : In addition to giving you the improved grab, it automatically deals damage every round wit...

Reminds me of a Grimtooth trap.

The assassin vine whip uses some version of entangle where you use grapple rules, and the grapple bonus is only +8. I didn't mention it because I thought it sucked. EDIT: I missed that Delver Slime did damage to organic creatures as well. So I change my mind on the Delver Slime, it's pretty cool. I ...

I have sympathy for you and for the widow. And anyone else that is hurting because of what your friend did.

Chapter 5: Equipment You know what? I don't recall using one goddamn item out of this book I'm assuming its because they are shit. Let's see if my prediction is correct: It starts by saying people that sell equipment to "monsters" have to deal with angry mobs and such. Considering that th...

Quick correction: The area attack feat deals "significant" damage, not "massive". Everything else stands.

Shadzar doesn't actually read what people say before he starts arguing against him, does he?

Prak started a new thread discussing pun-pun here. I'd prefer further discussion of the legitimacy of the build be taken to that thread. It bears further debate, but I'd rather it not hijack my thread.

The roll will be between 10 and 14 about 68% of the time you roll, and be between 7-18 about 95% of the time if you roll 4d6, drop the lowest. That's opposed to 7-13 about 68% of the time, and 4-17 98% of the time with 3d6. Note that in 3d6, rolling a single 18 was defined as a statistical anomaly a...

Chapter Three: Monster Classes This chapter is a short one. First off, love the artwork on the first page. And maybe it's just me, but the Minotaur breaking the fourth wall looks kind of seductive. I hear "'Sup, ladies?" in my head. Probably just me. This chapter described the monster cla...

I can't find one goddamn computer that will let me do my assignments for my classes. And the computers at the fucking college require so many fucking user names and passwords that the fucking techs couldn't get me logged in. I HAD TO SHOW 2 FORMS OF ID TWICE TO EVEN GET WITHIN TEN FEET OF YOUR SHITT...

Desdan: Those are all really good reasons to say "no". Which was the actual question, why be a passive-aggressive dick when you can be an aggressive dick and tell them to fuck off? I've shot down repeated attempts by my players to play trolls and to play pixies, and I don't even feel bad. ...

Batman doesn't have "crazy prepared".

I'd argue that Batman is kind of like a Blue Mage, or a 1E Adaptor: He is immune to anything as long as it kicks his ass the first time he encounters it. Also, what Koumei said.

Chapter 1: Character Creation This chapter is short, so I'll do chapter 2 as well tonight. By D&D splat standards, this would be a bit thicker than the paperback splats that 3.0 had, but slim by hardback standards of 3.5. There is a lot of bullshit in those few pages though. It goes through ste...

Ten years ago this month, the gaming world was abuzz with news that WotC was releasing an update to its wildly successful 3rd edition of D&D (A version 3.5, if you will). The fanbase was abuzz with rampant speculation and accusations that anyone who disagrees must be performing fellatio on someo...

Okay, it looks like Savage Species is the winner. Allow me to express a hearty "fuck you, assbags" for requesting that ;p.

But seriously, I have a grudge against that book and I want to tear this book apart so bad my erection is grinding its teeth.

I'm actually using this crap as motivation for a few elf villains in my world.

Alright, quick question here. The Alienist PrC grants the ability to convert the fiendish and celestial monsters in the Summon Monster line to Psuedonatural versions. Is that a power-up? Wait, let me restate that, is that enough of a power-up to matter? I'm considering changing the spells to do that...

Taking a break for a bit, quitting before I get so tired of doing OSSRs that I don't want to do one ever again. Perhaps a week or two. I will accept requests if someone makes one. Here's a list of things I am willing/able to do (although an interesting enough special request will be considered). Lor...

Quasielemental plane? Which of the four planes mixed with either positive or negative energy would make bees?

Demiplane of bees could work.

That spelljammer segment sounds cool. Hey Frank, do they get into elves having almond shaped slanty eyes? Or do they not talk about the eyes. Basically, everything about Spelljammer is cool. http://www.cold-moon.com/images/Motivators/Gane%20Systems/spelljammer.jpg See? I never understood why Spellj...

I was actually waiting for a new game to start up and trying to join then. I don't feel 100% comfortable running a game online because I'm not used to doing that and want to play first before trying to run something. I just haven't seen anything come up.
