Cool, now I get to be some giant, sentient slug's decoration.

Nekkid decorating?!? Oh my!!!

And with that I shall depart. There is much to do today.

I enjoyed miniblitzing with you all.

you'd make an interesting mast for a ship.

Speaking of, my wife finally got 100% completion in gta5. She has since moved on to assassins creed 4. Its going to be a game we play together, as she hated the ship battles in 3, and I am decidedly...not stealthy.


My second group doesn't seem to want to continue the Legacy of Fire campaign I had been running, and the only reason for that is two players in said group thinking that 3.5e is inferior to Pathfinder, even though nothing in the two sessions really highlighted this alleged inferiority. We all originally agreed that this campaign would be using 3.5e rules since we had only been playing Pathfinder, GURPS and 2e D&D so far. I just feel sad when the system I consider better is both overlooked and demonized.


You really only have two options. Either change groups to find a group that prefers 3.5, or adapt to the system your group prefers. Otherwise you're just going to keep running into this particular hurdle. There might not be anything within the current events that triggered the players' worries, yes, but I imagine they're also looking down the road, and especially comparing what their characters will be able to do - class abilities, feats, spells, etc. - down the road and comparing 3.5 classes to PF.

It's not just the rules that are different, and I imagine the players are keenly aware of that. Classes got a lot of extra love, especially a lot of the classes that had several front-loaded content and sparse middle levels that PF fleshed out. PF offers them a lot more options and I imagine they're really starting to miss those.

I can't much sympathize as I agree with your players =P I've long since converted most of the 3.5 stuff I wanted to keep.


Father opened the laptop and found traces of burned parts... There is chance he will be able to replace them and make it work. Assuming he'll find the right tools and right parts and won't damage anything vital for laptop in the process.


@Orthos = One of the players in that group actually likes 3.5e and usually hears me out when I explain what's wrong in PF by comparison. Two other players are generally neutral with regards to what we play. It's a five-man group, and I've yet to confirm the ultimate fate of this Legacy of Fire campaign. Might be that they just want to postpone it instead of ending it altogether.


@Drejk: Good luck!

@Icy: Hope the game doesn't die. But you'll have to resolve the issue one way or another to everyone's satisfaction eventually.


Also, I hate Pathfinder for ruining Prestige Classes and handing out promises yet never delivering on them in many regards.

I won't go into detail with all my gripes with it though, since I don't want to turn the FaWtL into an edition war thread.


Have you considered running a hybrid game? Allowing content from both? That's what my group does. (Or has done/will do, my KM game is strictly PF since a lot of the players were new, but games in the past were and games in the future will be allowing a lot of 3.5 content.)


I would if people bothered telling me what they want me to convert to PF before we start a campaign.

And now for some good news on the side. I have designed that odd horse creature I mentioned earlier*, and named it the sharn!

* = I think it was a page or two ago?


Well if you want any help on conversions I can dig up my old files as needed =) PM or whatever if you like.

RE: sharn - Sounds cool. Post Stats/picture? =D


Sure, though I'll have to wait till work's over before I can PM.

As for stats, I haven't got those done yet since I mainly made this creature for a story. The description I have so far is of a horse-like creature with somewhat thick fur, sturdy hooves more akin to stone than keratin, a long and sturdy tail with four spikes at the end (similar to a stegosaurus) that actually contain a paralyzing poison, and a somewhat canine head. Omnivorous and sometimes a bit aggressive, some have been successfully tamed as mounts. I can see orcs preferring them over horses, though they aren't the only ones who might own these creatures.


No rush, wouldn't be able to get to my books and notes while at work myself either =)

I love 3.x myself. I love pathfinder too, but I feel it more goes in a set direction moreso than is a logical extension of 3.x. My homebrew is 3.x based, and while I enjoy getting ideas from pathfinder I more translate them to 3.x than find things in 3.x to convert to pathfinder.


How does the sharn sound, by the way? XD

+1. Not sure where I'd put it in my world, which would affect which race/culture would use it, but I like it.


Take a look at the moose/deer like creatures from dragon age as well. They're awesome.


I have the Dragon Age RPG book. I need to go through it one of these days and mine it for ideas to convert to PF.


Do the Dragon Age moose things have a name?


You mean halla?


Man, those horns.


Yeah. I like halla. They're awesome, I always choose to heal an injured one.


It's game night, and my laptop won't connect to the internet. :(

Took the advantage of mother being in kitchen and opened window. Air, really air! Already a bit better. Not as good as I would like it but better than before.


Instead of writing one or the other incoming submission or at least writing short story I focused on writing a part of akashic base class.

Had to cancel my game, due to a couple of players not turning up.

Although played a board-game (my favourite Sumeria).
However I might have come second, possibly due to beverage consumption.


Enough writing (and sitting in front of computer) for today. Good night everyone.


So my group just started Chapter Three of Kingmaker.

They burned down the Tannery in Varnhold

Spoiler:
after finding and identifying the skins there.


Thinking of trying to write a novelty song called "I Want Pickles."

Just got to learn how to play an instrument first...


Huh, I fell asleep right after getting home last evening.

Then again, I've slept rather poorly this week in general.


I'm awake. Why, taxi drivers never slepp inwhen a fare is waiting.


Gah, my anxiety and worries about failing as a writer are acting up now that people told me horror stories about publishers and their own ambitions being crushed. Apparently those guys make it insanely hard to get a book published if the idea isn't bowing down to modern trends, even though another friend of mine has said that the modern innovations are slowly turning the whole publishing business more or less obsolete, which in turn makes independent publishing an option.

Does anyone here happen to know anything about programming languages by the way?

Good morning FAWTLY Brethren! HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

Scarab Sages

Went to open a new box of K-cups this morning, only to discover is accidently purchased decaf. WTF?!? Why do they even make this crap?

Scarab Sages

But to paraphrase Pete the Cat.....

"Did zombie cry? Goodness no! He kept walking along and singing his song..."

Scarab Sages

....And drinking the decaf anyway. Since there's real coffee at work.

Scarab Sages

Got an email from a buddy the other day, guy I used to work with. He was the lead contractor on a bunch those inspections I used to oversee for the Navy.

So he's down here at his company's Houston office this week and next runnin a training class. Since I get off work early today I'm gonna go meet up with him at his offices and we're gonna go grab lunch.
