only if you play a spell component pouch as a magical item that refills itself while acting like a bag of holding.

Orthos: to each their own I suppose ;)

what puzzles me is that so many people seem to simply ignore the thing that's part of spellcasting that makes it hard...

YOU NEED THE MATERIAL COMPONENTS!

in my (not so) humble opinion, that's what makes casters so overpowered. the hard part of their mechanic is ignored :s

Exactly.

Doesn't really answer my question, admittedly.

It's exactly the type of movie that should probably need an R/PG-18 rating.

Unfortunate. Oh well.

Deadpool, the merc with a mouth, is a sociopathic mass murderer with a spiderman-esque flair of wisecracking. while killing. everything.

EVERYTHING!!!

He's a lot like the murderhobos people often complain about, only better at it.

scroll of miracle
scroll of Wish
scroll of Power word KILL

I'll just place them on the photocopier a couple of thousand times ;)

they'll just b$$&@, whine and nagg their parents into taking them anyway.

it's deadpool?

I think Venom was part of the plan. Agent Venom however...

awesomesauce (the FF thing)

does Steve Rogers become Falcon then?

tv ratings tell us nothing about how popular the show really is, since people stream more often than not, so we'll just provide it for free through streaming, get our money from advertising on those sites, and acualy have credible numbers for a change?

ever read BlackSad?

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.

unfortunatly, most players I know know the deathtoll in those campaigns, and most are too fond of their characters to play a campaign that'd pose severe risks to their survival

absolutely loved The night Santa went crazy...

Moira Mactaggert?

imho, playing games should never be seen as "enough" to replace actual study, so I'd suggest treating p&p rpg as such. Like music and film, it has the benefit of capturing the interest of people, thus making the learning of the language less of a chore. It also helps with the vocabulary due to introducing you to events that require differnt words than those learned in early classes.

in respect to your original question: there's a thread of these boards, concerning Gary Gygax's thoughts on what makes a good roleplayer. That might be an extremely good read.

or: in that case, roll for initiative.

quite the anticlimax

a pen and paper roleplay without paper... what's this world coming to :( :p

nope, breath attack that had a bigger range than my darkvision. We essentialy walked into the acid breath of a black dragon

party entered a cave looking for a dragon. after a dozen of smaller fights against it's kobold slaves, we entered a narrow corridor that seemed to go on forever. It was dark, so our sorceress took out her torch, and I, the dwarven cleric, took point. Call for initiative, call for reflex save, everyone fails, and the dragon has done a TPK in his surprise round...

Keldarth:

It worked out well enough for a few months, but then he got paranoid. He became convinced that I was out to get his characters, and eventually started threatening me. Autistic or not, I don't DM under those circumstances, so I booted him. Which enraged his parents, and resulted in his sister dropping out of the group due to family drama.

So yes, it's his parents fault. Before you start attacking other people, telling them off and making outrageous claims that they know knothing about autism because they don't agree with you that those parents are angels, and completely in the right for demanding of Tequila Sunrise that he takes the responsability of teaching their child right from wrong, switch your brain to the ON position.

and telling people you don't mean to offend them does not take the offensiveness out of a 100% offensive post.

no offence. (see what I did there?)

nope, it doesn't. those are exeptions to the rule. or are all elderly people in the avatar world superpowered?

True, but Zuko is a senior citizen, and Kya isn't a warrior as far as I know...

compare those facts to the fact they're fighting a guy that was a threat even before he had bending... I'm willing to believe it ;)

was thinking The Gamers, but that's newer, Mazes and Monsters, but that's not with a demon (still good film though) Knights of Badassdom, but that's also a lot newer...

I honestly don't know, but I'm extremely interested :)

who's to say it's a short time? We only just found out about his existance, he could have developped the ability to airbend months ago, and have been training rigorously in between visits from his guards, up untill the time where he was confident enough to chance an attempted breakout.

Most likely it was after the harmonic convergence, but I don't recall hearing how much time has passed since then, and more and more airbenders are crawling out of the woodworks, he could have been the first...

I usualy grin like a sociopath 'till they leave me alone...

any of the Final Fantasy series, any RTS, any elder scrolls game, any TEKKEN, and Duke Nukem (3D, time to kill, and the first 2, before 3D)

GM Says: I can't seem to find anything wrong with that build, at all, anywhere. It seems perfectly legal.
GM means: It's OP, but I don't care, he's gonna die the first session anyway.

Good char fighting to save the life of a possessed love one vs good char fighting to end the life of the posessing being.

MORTAL KOMBAT! tudududududududududu ...

no, but you're the only one with such sentiments about the thread still posting in it. prolly a problem related 100% to your mental wellbeing.

just counted them on the wikipage ;) stopped counting once they started with the oriental settings and was at 52. counted the books for pathfinder here at the paizosite. 15. (phb, dmg, mm, ultimate everythings, epic, and npc handbooks.)

Here's another reason I am, at least for now because I can't tell the future, opting out of pathfinder. How fast is this game getting on par with 3.X supplement bloat? There is simply getting to be too much to deal with now. I am aware of things like the SRD but still it's just too much. You can barely do anything without someone saying "Well in this supplement here it says that is supposed to work this way while this book here says if you do that, this also happens." And then I have to get the Tylenol. I tell you, all the arguing I have had to deal with from people about multi-book spanning RAW and RAI has actually caused me to have to get fillings from the tooth grinding just so I don't deck someone. Yes I have considered sending the bill to my group.

oh come on! 50+ books for 3.5, 15 for pathfinder...

The Last Exorsism 2...

*facepalm*

Tolkien's Middle Earth?

do you mean stuff like Eberron, Forgotten Realms or Greyhawk?

I had a friend, and player in my campaign, show up drunk, and getting drunker all the time. I reminded him of the rules: you can drink, but if you get drunk before the session ends, you're out, permenantly, no takebacks. He put down the bottle that instant and went for water.

make up a "social contract" for your gamingsessions, and make sure every player, and the DM, understand those rules, and what will happen if you break them.

how about a piano-rain? gotta love the piano-rain...

I think most people would tell me to get a room if I started interacting with myself during a session...

I'm quite certain they have RPG's. without RPG's, society can't endure.

Last character to be forcefully retired (didn't die, but became impossible to play) was a dwarven fighter, dual wielding axes. He was paralysed / frozen, and has been for the last 10 years now. Due to his ring of sustenance though, he's still alive :p

I don't think that's what's happening in this case though. Del Toro was talking about sequels from the start. And there are potential openings for sequels left in there as well. After all, Geiszler and Gottlieb (the scientists) drifted with a kaiju, and that could have some long term consequences. Just a thought, but it's one direction they could take.

yeah, wasn't being specific about this film, more of a general feel...

guy with a negative dex modifier, fullplate, and encumbrance, totaling his sneak skill modifier at around -15, was going to sneak past a few dwarven defenders to steal their casks of dwarven ale...

R(eal) T(ime) Strategy is going to be hard to combine with a Turn Based combatsystem as most RPG's use. TBS though is part of the Pathfinder universe, both with single model units (regular combat) aswell as troopbased combat (ultimate campaign I think? Wrath of the Righteous has a bit of it)

Courtship and mating among silver dragons is always a civilized and decorous affair.

Andy Collins, Skip Williams, James Wyatt - Draconomicon, The Book of Dragons, D&D3.5

if you want to play crazy, play Call of Cthullu...

pyro's movement speed is higher than the heavy's turn speed.

any pyro worth his salt knows that he has to go the long way round, airblast the medic away, and stick to the heavy's back, where he can't get you, turning with him, not against.

(airblasting the medic away brings the Heavy out of his ubercharge, check the range on the medigun)

it's why I always switch to pyro when there's a heavy - medic team. or any team including a medic really.

same with the demoman. you know where the turret and engineer are? you know where his dispenser is? good. then they're dead.

I see a lot of people on TF2 with "mad skillz" that can headshot you in a blink of an eye the second you come from behind a corner, but not too many players that realise there's a whole part of the map there, with alternate routes, that bring you to the enemy's back.

the game changes from time to time, because it lives. Go with the flow, adapt your strategy with the changes.

btw: heavy can pre-spin using mouse2. Speeds him up quite a bit if you need to burst through a defended point. though I still find it idiotic to try and breach a defended point from the direction they're all looking at.

I use the dead scientist markers from DooM: The Boardgame, and a few of those Dead Marine figures from Warhammer 40K, aswell as the Giant Template from Warhammer Fantasy Battles

What did the latest update to team fortress 2 do to make it unplayable? (I never played it anyway, but what's changed?)

They nerfstomped the Demoman into uselessness.

Which has singlehandedly destroyed the metagame built up over the last 7 years, and is contributing to a lot slower play at higher levels of skill since the main class used for busting stalemates of Heavy/Medics and Engineers no longer has the power to bust said stalemates.

pffff, Heavy - Medic is easily handled by a good pyro, engineers die in droves to a good spy / soldier, and I've been playing a lot of demoman this weekend, owned every game I joined.

sure, you might have to change some of your tactics, but demoman is far from useless, if you have at least a modicum of skill.
