Frank is a vitriolic asshole. However, he is usually correct and almost always entertaining.

Also, the sky is blue.

Except when it is black, pink, orange, red, or purple.

not a joke about the man per-say, but an amusing Fibonacci joke just the same.

Yes, thanks for looking.

tapatalk support.

allows for scaling and reflowing of forums on mobile devices. iOS, Android, WebOS, Win7.

supposedly easy to implement.

Provide me a hand-waving but reasonably convincing explanation as to how a human being's brain can naturally send and receive gigabit data rates at gigahertz frequencies that any computer can work with. external transmitters and body shielding. technomancers still require datajacks, and a wireless ...

keep otaku, treat them as people who have had their brains re-written to function as computers. they may need periodic software updates. in exchange for removing the middleware ie decks/pdas they get an extra init pass or something, can create code on the fly, but get fucked harder by IC, or open th...

Labyrinth of Madness Crazy difficult. Messes with a number of auto win strategies and forces parties to think and communicate well. Some bullshitery, but mostly there to give the creepy vibe. Only real annoyance is that you have to backtrack a lot, and search everything multiple times. Is good if yo...

LLC took money from IMR is the allegation. IMR is LLC and his wife per their lawyer. Can you steal from yourself? Legally? IMR owes Topps royalties, but they didn't take property from Topps directly. Therefore they didn't steal from Topps. IMR's incorporation paperwork doesn't list any owners other ...

C is unlikely. If the license was renewed, there would be a big announcement about it already. with all the spin that we've seen, a renewal of the license would be shouted in the forums and on the main website. Why would IMR pay to have books printed at this point? they have books printed sitting in...

If it is a bridge class to get into sublime chord, could you be thinking of the Memory Smith DR311 ? Adds spells to your list of spells known at each level, gives/ increases Bard spellcasting and give Fighter BAB, 2 good saves. It's a bard prestige class, that doesn't actually require you to be a ba...

@Frank fix link tags pls LLC's do allow for non-governing members. but terms of said membership need to be spelled out in the incorporation papers. This would allow for 'silent' members to be brought on board and not have to refile the LLC. They would be separate contracts between the LLC and the se...

I sit corrected.

well at least he is doing his job.

he is the public voice of the company, yes?

which says to me: marketing and sales

which is all about misleading the public.

most salesmen try to not outright lie, but bending the truth into an origami crane is their art.

We are Legion?

I didn't know that we were a we.

and my post was made of sarcasm and silly in order to stop the arguing and get back on topic.

Fine. In 3.0 haste was so much better for casters than Fighters . Very true, they fixed the haste so that it doesn't give another action, but then they went and made metamagic rods of quicken. so the Wizard can still cast 2 freakn spells a round. 3.0 also had some really stupid fuckn prestige class...

I'd like to posit my own champion. Range. Range beats skill, strength, conditioning, and training. If you kill the other fucker before he has a chance to kill you, you win. English longbows had longer range than their French counterparts. US tanks in Desert Shield had longer range than Iraqi tanks. ...

@ Mean Liar & Josh Perhaps I learned to read and parse English differently than you, but what he says make perfect sense to me. 1. 5min work days suck. ie blowing wad and then having to rest to get it back. Solution, make resources that reset after resting into resources that reset after a comba...

Here's what i'm thinking. If Str is the new Bod. atk roll, count hits vs threshold that incorporates difficulty mods. net hits up wound levels soak roll = armor+agility/str (allows for quick dodgy or tough as nails) hits reduce damage boxes, if negates, then something cinematic protected the individ...

Mute the troll and move on.

I like this idea of simplifying combat. Tell me more. I'm thinking of running a game myself and am looking for pitfalls/house rules to make things go smoothly.

that is what armor is for. Soaking whether natural armor aka troll or or manufactured aka balistic best.

So what books are being held up / may not see print?

I'm still upset about corp war not being released.

As written, the Legacy Weapons due suck. However if you houserule/create your own. they are actually a nifty idea. Just make them non-sellable minor artifacts, that have powers that unlock as you level / do things. ie you must be this tall to use this power. or (not) be a dick to get this one. if do...

I was referring to elves having enough wood to make the ammo, not the bows themselves. What with ammo rules in 3.5 and all. Elves aren't awesome, they make shoes. They should all be named Al and hate their lives. Long lived races like the elves should be treated like Galapagos Tortoises or Olgier. T...
