But if everything is sold at cost, why make anything to sell? You would make no money by doing so....

Any idea when these will become avail?
Oops, missed the second page. Sux about the fire. I hope they recover from it, they do really good work on these.

This might be a bit off topic, but does anyone know if using the heal skill for removing a disease cures the ability damage? I see no mention of it anywhere and one of my players insists that it does remove the damage.

Who said this (I just can't remember!): "What piece of s##& did I do now?"

It's from the head bad cop in "Leon, The Professional" I do believe.

Just this of the bonuses as the races 'perfection' of the class, while others that they are not so good at are not perfected yet. That makes sense to me for explaining it. It doesn't mean you can't be a exceptional member of that class, your just not as good at it as some other races that may have spent centuries perfecting it.

Lets just make everyone Human, 10 in all stats, no armor, clubs for weapons and no spells or skills and a flat hit point value of 5. There, I have balanced the game! :P

I personally don't see it as an issue. I am currently playing a Gnome Cleric in one campaign and I have to say, while the extra hit points or skill points would be nice, I really don't miss them at all. It's only a penalty if something is taken away from you. If it's given, it's just a bonus.

Here's my take on Leadership...

Leadership scores are not affected by non-permanent items (ie. cloak of charisma).

Leadership is taken as a feat because, lets face it, not everyone wants to stand out in a crowd, let alone attract an army of followers. So it requires a bit of effort (a feat) to become popular enough to attract a following.

Cohorts are a lower level then the PC because, they want to learn from / feed off the fame or wealth of the PC. If the cohort was a higher level then the PC, they would probably have their own fame, wealth, knowledge, etc. and would have a following of their own (if they wanted). Bodyguards and/or hirelings may be higher level because they are being paid to hang around.

When a PC leaves for an adventure, he/she needs not take an army with them, but rather would leave their men at a 'base' until called for. When a king goes for a ride, he leaves his main army behind. He brings his bodyguards and friends and that's it.

Anyways, these are my opinions. Feel free to ignore them if you wish, maybe they will help someone. I don't intend any offense and am not picking on someone's post. These are just some things I noticed were being discussed and thought I'm give my 2 cp.
