Was anyone else as irritated by the jumpy camera, fast cuts, poor framing, and blurry images as I was? I think it ruined an otherwise good movie. It worked great for the fighting. Especially the bloodbath at the start of the games. This was not what I was expecting from the director of Seabiscuit and Pleasantville.


Thanks

That is my take on it too. It would be nice if, in the Str/Dex adjustment section, there was something like. This increase replaces the ability increase every four HD.


Does an animal companion get an ability increase every 4th hit die like any other creature?

Nothing in the animal companion sidebar says to do this, though base attack, base saves, and skill points are all covered in the description. The companion also gets two ability increases every other level which seems like more than enough. I am playing a druid for the first time and had never noticed this omission/vagueness in the rules before.


42


Is the Goblin Dog's jump modifier really +14? Do they have a racial bonus of +8 that was omitted from the skill section?


We all know about OotS. What other web comics do you read?

DM of the Rings is made of stills from the movies. The dialog is of a DM railroading his hack and slash players through the Lord of the Rings story.

Goblins life through their eyes.

W.O.G. World of Greyhawk comic.

xkcd Not D&D but interesting.


One of my players wants to buy a masterwork tool for Use Magic Device skill checks. I'm trying to decide if I should let him, or make a more expensive magic item thet does the same thing. How do other DMs feel about this?

Tool, Masterwork

This well-made item is the perfect tool for the job. It grants a +2 circumstance bonus on a related skill check (if any). Bonuses provided by multiple masterwork items used toward the same skill check do not stack.


There is also a really good Star Trek: The Next Generation episode like this. It is called Cause and Effect. The Enterprise is caught in a causality loop — a time warp that dooms them to endlessly repeat the same fragment of time.

I play it ocasionaly at my FLGS. The more players you have the more fun it is. We use Magic commons for gold.


I will be running Fiendish Footprints from Dungeon #122 on Sunday.


This seems like a good place to beg Kyle Hunter to update the Downer web site. If not forward to the future then back to episode #1.


Flyby Attack provokes attacks of opportunity unless you also have Improved Flyby Attack.


I have been transposing all the statblocks,in the new format, into a notebook. It is a lot of work, but I have a pretty good grasp of the bad guys abilities before running a fight. So far it has worked well. I can add in notes about spell effects and special abilities that I'm not familiar with. Useing a word processor would probably be easier, but I'm not much of a typist.
