    One shot tournament games

    Greetings, I was talking with a minion of my FLGS, and had this crazy idea during the discussion: A once a month high-risk crawl designed to test people's tactical skills. I announce the theme ("Crypt", "Desert", "Wasteland") and character level a month ahead of time, and people sign up for...

    Seattle, Capitol Hill neighborhood looking for game.

    I just moved up to Capitol Hill and sold my car, so getting back to the neighborhood late at night when the buses don't run isn't so much fun. As such, I'm looking for games in the Capitol Hill neighborhood - I live on Pike and Broadway. I have mostly played, but wouldn't object to taking a...

    Core Plus Eberron Plus One

    I'm going to be playing in a campaign starting this Friday. The DM has set the rules for using books as follows: No Psionics. Other than the aforementioned "No Psionics" you can use any single WotC book in addition to the Player's Handbook and the Eberron core book. We have several options...

    Questions about Elements of Magic

    Yeah, I know, how DARE I start a thread about a non-4E related topic? Heathen! :lol: I picked this up a bit back, but have never had an opportunity to use it for a character. It looks great, but I'm having a hard time selling my DM on it... So, I've got a question for those who are using...

    PHB2: Melee Weapon Mastery - am I missing something?

    Currently looking for a feat to take, and this just looks too damn good. Requirements: +8 BAB, proficiency, weapon focus, weapon specialization. Can be taken as a fighter feat. Gives: +2 to hit and damage with all weapons of same attack type (slash/bash/piercing) and stacks with everything...

    Improved Evasion + Blink = 1/3 or 1/4th damage?

    Let's say I don't make my save against some reflex save-based area attack. I'm blinking, and I have improved evasion. Now, multipliers are additive - 2x + 2x = 3x - but does that extend to divisors? Would I take 1/4th damage (1/2 * 1/2) or 1/3 (1/2+1) damage?

    That's one way to build a world...

    I've been thinking about running a game for some time now, just never got around to it. One of the problems is, I like to have some kind of framework behind the gameworld, instead of leaving everything completely undeveloped. I'm not talking that I need to know who each of the ten thousand...

    Need help phrasing a wish.

    We might be able to avoid using it for this (there are other things I'd like to wish for) but in case it ends up coming down to this... My party is on a deadline, and we're out of resources with the nasty half of the dungeon in front of us as near as we can tell. I've got a "use once and...

    Cohort equipment?

    How do you equip a cohort when a player takes the leadership feat? The rules seem to be unclear... 1. By player wealth guidelines? 2. By NPC wealth guidelines? 3. With a loincloth, and let the player equip them out of pocket? Is there an "official" ruling on this?

    Grapple and Blink - how does the miss chance work in?

    This came up the other week. My character was blinking, and somebody tried to grapple me, got past the initial miss chance, and succeeded in the grapple itself - and that's where things got wacky. Seeing as how this might happen again, I thought I'd ask for clarification. I assumed that on my...

    Pumping UMD?

    I'm running a rogue who's been maxing out his UMD skill for some time now. The character is currently L13, and my guess is based on the way things have been going he'll be L18 or L19 when we hit the big baddie for the campaign. Any WotC splatbook is acceptable as a source... The trick is, I'd...

    Good inexpensive microphone for recording your group?

    I'd like to do audio logs of my gaming group, but I need a microphone that can get everybody's voices. It can either be a separate solution, like one of the Olympus digital voice recorders, or something that could plug directly into the audio in jack on a laptop. Any suggestions?

    Getting some minis - where do you get yours?

    I'm starting up a campaign here pretty soon, first one I've ever run. I'd like to get my hands on some miniatures, but there are several issues: 1. I know WotC has some kind of "collectible" miniatures set thing going on, but that you get random draws. I'm looking for specific types of minis...

    D&D 5E Rogue disjoins artifact, fails will save - what next?

    Theoretical situation: A rogue uses a scroll of Mordy's Disjunction via Use Magic Device, and Disjoins an artifact, then fails the will save. What happens to him?

    Do Sacred and Holy weapon enhancements stack?

    I'm referring to the sacred enchantment in Libris Mortis. Basically, it gives +1d6 damage versus undead, +2d6 versus evil outsiders, and makes the weapon good aligned. It's a +1 enhancement bonus. Holy is a +2 weapon enhancement, gives +2d6 damage against evil creatures, and makes the weapon...

    Does the Blink spell count as concealment, and deny AoOs?

    SRD description of Blink: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/blink.htm SRD description of concealment: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/combatModifiers.htm#concealment Although it doesn't specify it exactly, it appears that a blinking character effectively has full concealment, or a 50% miss...

    Surviving (and being useful) until Wildshape?

    So I'm running this Druid over in the Living ENWorld game. As you'll note, he's VERY lacking in the physical department, and makes up for it in smarts. I've seen the occasional "high level player cripples physical stats, then spends entire life wildshaped into something with serious bonuses,"...

    The Prisonkeeper

    In every world, there is a great evil that lies imprisoned beyond the bounds of the known. In Greyhawk, it is called Tharizdun, and its wakening would spell the doom of the whole world. Chained in their prisons, these dark forces yearn for freedom - and many maddened individuals work to free...

    Gamer seeking game in Renton/Seattle, WA

    I'm in my early thirties. I've got my own transportation, so that's not an issue. However, I can't go out every weekend - due to other commitments, I can game about once about every three to four weeks. I can handle most systems, prefer D&D 3.5, GURPS, Heavy Gear, Diplomacy. Looking for...
