The Gaming Den

On the topic of PDF's, I don't see why it couldn't be included in the Tome PDF in some manner when it's all done. Or at least the "Tome Suppliment" that Aktariel has suggested, since the PDF is getting... huge.

We do... Kinda. Tome backgrounds are like traits on crack that matter. In fact, we need more of those. I may do that within a few days.

If by "assassin" you mean "I'm totally playing in this campaign as Spider Man" then I want that one.

Some of the words in Overlord 9 is redundant and redundant.

Battle Report! So, I had a 5th level Kobold Gadgeteer in the party today. He seemed to be roughly on par with the other characters damage wise by switching between his shotgun and his shock staff. The Proximity detector allowed him to function as a rogue replacement for traps. Coax magic device let ...

Honestly since a maneuvers affect only get's applied once (at least, that's how it seems to be), the weirdest thing I can see coming from shotgun maneuvers is that on-damage maneuvers always go off unless the target has evasion. At low levels it looks like you could prone-lock someone, and at high l...

I have a few rules questions about the gadgeteer, since we (my group) will be using one in our game soon. [*]The shotgun type gadgets use an attack action to activate. Would using a shotgun be considered a "standard attack"? One of my players asked because of the potential of cross-classin...

The forums calendar may deal with dates up to a year into the future, if thats true, the system would go all FUBAR because of the epoch a year before the actual end of time.

On stats, why bother having the score and modifier be different? That's one thing that's always annoyed me. Just have standard scores range from -2 to +4 and roll 2d4-4 to get your score. it never made sense to me that in 3.5 the score was really just a way to get a modifier which was the only thing...

Dudes, you could still be old, you just dont get fucking stat bonuses for it, shits retarded.

It doesn't matter between 18 or 25, it matter's when someone wants to play a 70 year old cleric for the +3 to mental stats.

You know, after looking at the titanic Frog, it's pretty beast. CR 13 (though its not really got much in the way of tricks going for it.) For an actual knight that qualifies for Giant Frog through Chaos Knight it's not so bad. But if a player plays, say, an awakened dire toad and qualifies for Giant...

Oh! A card based class, go all yu-gi-oh or MTG on people.

I was going to make one once but... got lazy.

Don't even bother with Profession (Giant Frog). I mean, if you have to profess to be a giant frog, you really aren't are you?

I'm a big fan of getting rid of age bonuses/penalties flat out, it's stupid.

And yeah, I usually ignore the age shit when rolling a character, but I assume there's someone out there who uses it.

Awesome, when this is finished it'll totally make my dream come true, now I can play a Dire Toad and have a class tailored for me!

On age charts, I think breaking the table into the three categories but just calling them 'Young', 'Mature', and 'Old' would work well instad of referencing specific classes. That way you get "Rogue Starting Age: Young" and you look at the young entry for your race on the table. Although, ...

Alright, I'm tired of seeing "Starting Gold: As X" in the Tome classes. And even though the starting gold isn't released as OGL, it's just a number and and I feel confident that you could include such things into the PDF. The same could probably said about the age charts, though you could ...

Better names for the three (potential) monk roles might be more along the lines of Fast, Strong, and Wise.

Or, if you want it to be more fancy, the Wise one could be called a "Sage". Not sure about the other ones.

It's formatted! I assume It'll be included into the next release of the PDF.

But, in case you don't want to wait, I've whipped up an individual PDF for it over here.

The class itself is now formatted. I'll finish up by formatting the gadgets after my sleep cycle.

I suggest Sherlock Gnomes.

I know I'm kinda harping on this gun thing, but would it be ok for the Shotgun to eventually become [Charged]? I just had the mental image of an Orc in Mechanus Armor walking down a hallway pumping rounds into everything he meets. And really, sorry about harping on the gun thing, I just know that th...

Totally rad. You forgot to change the tag to [Charged] on the Simple-Ammo Gat though.

I really like it, but you should probably add a blurb about how the gadgets function if the Gadgeteer hands them out (I assume they can). Do they just stop working if the Gadgeteer doesn't maintain them as part of their daily routine? It also strikes me as odd that the only guns are [Daily], so you ...
