The Gaming Den

I didn't notice that this thread was about pathfinder. :oops: Failed a spot perception check. It happens. *Edit: Forgot this was about Pathfinder. Failed my Decipher Script Linguistics*2 check. *2Edit 2: Damn it. While I like and use skill consolidation, spot check has a nicer ring to it than the p...

I know nothing about balance and whatnot, but these look pretty interesting and fun to run (wondering what havoc I can wreak with Ice Make and Deep Freeze). Also, yay for new monsters. They don't seem that common in IMOI*.

*Except for Pokemon, which are awesome.

Wow, that's a lot of options. Thanks guys. I'm tempted to (and just may) start jogging more. I'm surprised no one posted anything TRPG or video game related though.

I think he's talking about the barrel. Yep http://www.sonicstadium.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/CarnivalNightZone11.jpg Carnival Night Zone Act 2, but only on the Sonic and/or Tails route (henceforth I'll just refer to Sonic and/or Tails as just Sonic). Thankfully Knuckles never faced the damn th...

The PC version of Sonic 3 and Knuckles that I got on a bootlegged cd as a kid. It's a solid platformer with great music (and one extremely irritating section that's impossible to pass without a walkthrough), but there was one feature that I really enjoyed. There was an option to play as Sonic and Ta...

In an effort to saturate every waking moment of my life with some form of media or other, I found a gap during jogging that I'd like to fill.

I'm guessing large scale events might help. Ancient evil returning, alien invasion, war, civil war, natural disasters, political turmoil, etc. Players could choose to not take on quests involving any of those, but just being in the area will make players a part of the event. Even if they just choose...

Yeah, but what if there's a wall on the other side? Also, tumble is a dex thing and not a class skill for say, the Barbarian.

How about a more powerful version and/or omnidirectional version of Bullrush being available to use on opponents who're pinned or lifted?

scribd is extremely annoying. You need to upload stuff before you can download anything. Anyway, here's the same thing on mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/view/8639xwza1 ... averse.pdf

Special Attack Actions, better link On top of that, there is the Master fighting style of monk (earliest is at level 9): While Active, your Master Fighting Style affects any opponent you successfully trip or bull rush with the violent thrust version of telekinesis, with a caster level equal to your...

I like the Alexandrian's advice of " Don’t prep plots, prep situations. " I usually try to figure out the setting, surrounding area, monsters, unique NPCs, and draw a map or something. I assign backgrounds, personalities, goals, etc. to important NPCs and then just throw players at the sit...

... What? What I say something is cool I mean it. I'm guessing uber suspected you of referring to the ' Cool Story Bro ' meme. Not sure when I first heard the phrase, but I used it completely sincerely on the interwebs for quite some time before I realized it was an insult. That said, this is prett...

This spell restores a petrified creature to its normal state, restoring life and goods. The creature must make a DC 15 Fortitude save to survive the process. Any petrified creature, regardless of size, can be restored. The spell also can convert a mass of stone into a fleshy substance. Such flesh i...

This is amazing. Can't wait to have fights in places like these. The vertical options like the catwalk, stairs, balconies, etc. are nifty. Especially like the items lying around as those actually have a good reason for being there. I think there should be a way to trip more than one person at a time...

I nominate Dungeons: the Dragoning 40,000 7th Edition.

2013: Run a campaign that lasts at least 3 sessions. Failed. Though I blame our schedules for this. I did have a few amusing one shots though. 2014: Learn game design well enough to significantly contribute to gaming den projects. If video game related stuff counts, get around to actually making a p...

That's entirely a cultural thing. There have been real life cultures where eating your dead enemies was a sign of respect, and eating your enemy was considered the highest form of flattery. That's interesting. It would still depend on the party however. Personally, I wouldn't mind doing it to acqui...

Then give some examples of really awesome spells that could feasibly be researched using 2e rules.

If you have a troll, no one has to die, profit. I'd bring up conservation of energy (i.e. the troll would still need to eat, and eating himself would at best have diminishing returns), but usually the answer to that is magic. Is troll regeneration fueled by magic? If so, then this is completely via...

radthemad4: I eagerly await the day that i can effectively punch people as well. I think the costume would be far easier to achieve than the second goal. There aren't two goals. I wanted to see you punch people 'in costume'. Sure, Danny doesn't punch people, but MMA fighters don't shoot webs, fly, ...

How about rolling knowledge when describing the scene to them and then immediately telling players how the various features can be used. e.g. when describing the room, "There's straw on the floor. It looks flammable" for all cases, but "One of the support columns looks weak, and could...

It seems like it's already happening. Looking forward to the end result, though I'm enjoying the process too.

Frank & K really need to get back together* and start making more things that cause decades of argument. *in whichever sense of "get back together" the reader wants. I like to think of them as originally having been one person with a Jekyll-Hyde type of thing, leaving cryptic messages...

Awesome. I'm eagerly waiting to see how you pull that off and then watch you punch people.
