The conversion booklet for converting characters from 2nd ed to 3rd has been released!! It's a 25 page pamphlet that is free from your gaming retailer, and...
I kind of like the idea of a new edition because I am sick to death of pawing through thirty books to find one minor piddling proficiency for Jimmy the ...
I guess I am just a little slow but it sure seems to me that the same designers that have been tearing apart the game piece by piece are also creating 3E. I ...
Well, yeah, of course 3E is about making money, something that game publishers are nortoriously bad at. If 3E fails miserably, then gaming is no worse off than...
Since I can't read the messages that just got posted (thank you so much, Yahoo, for providing a prompt and efficient service), I'll just say what I'd been ...
I don't think that you and your players are in any danger of losing what you have now. Sans some campaign setting support, third edition is supposed to be the...
Maybe! We'll just have to see how it goes. I will be right there in the front rows trying to get a copy of the 3e handbooks early on. But I hate it when a game...
I'm getting mine at Gen-Con, having preordered it when I sent in my registration. But I wish I had ordered it from Amazon, because they've got a good deal on...
While I'm happy with some of the things 3e did with Rangers (specifically, sharpening up the natural enemy rules) I can't help but feel that Rangers got the ...
Having stumbled across a particular combination that I anticipate my players will take advantage of, I was wondering if anyone had yet seen this in action. If...
hmm, very good points. I knew that the easy multiclassing would be abused a bit, long before it came out. the secret to preventing it is:<br>a) special class ...
hey! cool, invest five ranks in bluff minimum and they have to ROLEPLAY what they are bluffing. if the player cann't do a good job of bluffing he should stick ...
psionics has recieved a major upgrade! at least according to roumer. seemless intergration to the rules, no more confusion no more contact or psychic combat,...
I'm delighted with what I have been hearing about the new psionic rules: it seems they will integrate more smoothly with existing rules than past incarnation,...
How do YOU want to play her ? I always look at the skills & feats then decide how & why the PC took them.O'kay I know some people have no idea how to roleplay ...
Personally, I take my personality and modify it to fit the character's race and class. I used to play a human thief, so I'd use my personality, then add some...
I was playing a game with my friend and his cousin the other day, and it seems that roleplayers are a dying breed. I mean, a NE cleric was willing to spare...
Hi, I've been reading some of the strings here and looking over a lot of the new 3rd Ed rules. One thing I never agreed on was the to-hit modifer based solely...
I think the reason behind that was the fighter. a Fighter needs strength, but when is he gonna consider Dex for anything but AC? so, they put it in there. ...
I don't know. I would just find it more believable if a more agile fighter had a better chance of landing a blow than lumbering hulk. Drizzt vs an Ogre? Not...
For what it's worth, 3rd Ed has addressed this issue. Strength still provides the default attack bonus. However one of the new Feats, Weapon Finesse, allows...
Excellent (Mr. Burns style) Thanks for the info. As I stated, I wasn't sure if the 3rd Ed. rules took this into account. I'm glad they did and I think it's ...
well you are right, they addressed it. I knew about weapon finesse, but i just thought that it should be the other way around for most weapons. I mean, ...
