Which is why I totally ninja'd him.

Actually what is the deal with that. I've totally been used to just throwing shit out on messageboards and discussing intricacies of feats and things due to the SRD. What happens to that now?

Tev · 06-29-2009, 03:17 PM

I'm not sure. Are we not due a SRD from Wizards now that 4th ED is out or are they not going to have one? I've not heared anything about it. I just assumed they'd put one up whenever they got around to it.

Makes sense tactics. I remember death inducing poisons and what not that you failed you died from some beast. Can't remember what but it killed our dwarf.

Isn't this it? http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20

I mean the SRD, its different then 3,5's obviously and you can get the jist of things without skills and what not. Tev's way was pretty much perfect cause I could understand it

Meister · 06-29-2009, 03:39 PM

Pretty sure it's no problem to refer to single specifics of any given power or feat, like "yeah, take Hydrogen Bomb at level 25, it goes against Reflex" or "Summon Elder Evil is an Arcane attack, should go well with my Improve Arcane Attacks feat." Just complete stat blocks I'm not so sure about. (I'm really not sure, by the way, but I understand it's not kosher to quote stats or non-SRD 3.5 monsters either, so better to err on the side of caution.)

Tactics just has to learn to stop getting carried away with things :p I could just imagine him sitting there reading the book as he is typing this all out, and it makes me laugh!

i'm glad they removed instant death cause those things were evil.

Do you guys use Minatures when you play?

And thus Tev got a new sig.

And yes, we do. I have blown a rediculous amount of money on them recently and my players love it.

We've been using the DnD minis for ours, cause my dad went ape shit and bought a smackload of boxes of them so we have a fair amount of figures but we're looking at getting better ones for our Player Characters, any recomendations on really good ones?

Tev · 06-29-2009, 04:05 PM

I've just been having my group use the D&D Mini's. If you want, some of the Warhammer Fantasy stuff might be nice and are already set on one inch square bases for the most part. Of course you'd have to paint them yourself, but some people aren't big balls of lazy like I am.

krogothwolf · 06-29-2009, 04:10 PM

I can't pain worth shit, but one of my friends loves to and is really good at it. So we may make him paint if he wants his character to not develop a speech impediment and lose a hand somehow. I do have a 200L tot filled with mini's still and we're using like 200 at my friends place
