let me clarify when a mage casts a spell the roll is not a to hit roll but a roll for success roll a 20-2 things go fine, maybe even dbl damage/ or AoE /duration for a 20 roll a 1 and then he muffed the incantation- spell failed- he was distracted or got hit by something. a critical fumble thats wha...

Justthis Guy

Ok here is my stance Agreed that mages are "squishies" with poor armor, but they compensate that with really nice spells Agreed that men at arms have good armor and nice bonuses to S/P/D and Dam - aka TANKS Tanks always roll to hit and can crit hit or crit fumble -bonuses apply a mage in c...

ill just be happy to see the book in print. I have grown a beard waiting for it since it was announced . . . . .
As Inyago Montoya said . . " I hate waiting . ."

I have to agree with you Mark. Considering that Ogres are a from a male ogre and female human it would make sense that they would psionic ability (a chance there of) like a human would. I do give them normal chances at psionics and would allow an ogre mind mage if a player wanted to play it ( but it...

Justthis Guy

To be an member of the Earth Shakers the description says one should first be an Ogre and then have an exceptional ability such as magic user, assassins skill or psionics. However I read in the racial descriptions that ogres do not possess psionic ability. How do you guys out there deal with this? M...

Mages should have to roll to "hit" this is a roll to see if they recited the spell correctly Roll a 20 then perhaps the spell does dbl damge for a crit hit. Roll a one!?! oh crap! Look out! that is a crit fumble! bad things can and often do happen in this case. I use some nice crit fumble ...

What this boils down to is just long is a "melee"? 10 seconds? ^ 6 seconds? 15?
is the length of a melee round determined?

Justthis Guy

good question! they could be nothing more than a globe of photons held by mystic energies and thus not solid, or they could behave such that the mystic energies create a vessel that would react to physical contact. If a globe did react, I think it would return back to its 'assigned" position ( ...

To start a campaign I find that having a beginning adventure planned helps. scale your foes to match the party's level. Make the first quest fun and allow the party to gel into a cohesive unit. During this initial adventure you should be able to find a hook for an epic adventure. Perhaps an NPC ment...

you need at least one more OCC Navigator- This is the person that can use the sextant and charts to determine the present location, and then plot the best course to get to the destination. would need high IQ, read and write, advanced math skills and . . . well you get the idea.

Justthis Guy

in regards to the use of miniatures, they are great for a battle board as a visual aid and to map out AoE spells or to determine LoS for archers; otherwise you dont need minis. PFRPG is the best for the great OCC's, the versatile skill set and the best combat system ever devised which address real a...

Bump to get next to the Rune weapon compilation post

Justthis Guy

There are Rune Weapons and Rune Items listed all over the PFRPG books. There are 21 in L o Bletherad alone. Plus there is the thread here which has another dozens plus. how about we make a listing of ALL the Rune weapons and item in one place. Perhaps Kevin will take this idea for a new publication....

Justthis Guy

As a GM I will seed the game with decent but not overpowering magic weapons. Rune weapons I reserve as rewards at the end of an exceptional campaign. Most rune weapons come with a price, and that price must be paid. I do not rule out a PC having a "special" weapon crafted for him /her but ...

Book 1- PFRPG source book. A must have Book 2- The Old Ones. absolutely great, get it. Book 3 - Adventures on the High Seas. fleshes out the watery world, worth it 100% Dragons and Gods- great info on the Pantheons and Dragons of the world, gives your priests some decent choices, and the GM some ide...

Justthis Guy

The PF books are source material. I use them for the background info. It establishes the region and encounters for the locale. They also have some decent canned adventures you can use. So you really dont need to use your own continent, since the main world is so well mapped out. Avoid the western em...

I have one I made that is cobbled from various tables and such. it is an 8 page; so 4 panels front and back. Email me and I will send it. Just print it off and then glue to card stock.

Justthis Guy

I use the base rules with some modifications. I am off the opinion that these adventurers are above average, and such will have a better chance at exceptional attributes. With that in mind I begin with the rule using D6 that 1=6. Next for assigned number of dice to be rolled, add one extra die and t...

The sunken city of Odelot Odelot was a mining and smelting city located near what is called the Old Kingdom River. What made it special was the ore they found there so many thousand years ago. Founded during the Time of the Elves some 17000 years ago, this unique mine produced an ore such a grade th...

Thanks for pointing me to it. That helps a ton! I needed that to place in history a lost city for the "interesting places" thread

Justthis Guy

Was wondering if there could be a historical timeline posted. Don't need all the gaps filled in (leave some mystery!) but just a timeline which roughly places the time of the old ones, time of a thousand magics, Elf dwarf war and so on in their rough and proper chronological order with the rough ide...

We have been doing this for a while too. I use 5 phases of 3 seconds. I went with this because it makes speed conversion easier. Each phase a character can move their speed in yards. I use a battle map of 1" squares for combat. Wet erase pens draw the terrain and features, and use minis or oth...

I like to use an Alchemist as my plot driver. This allows two things. One- a ready source of adventures and quests toward the meta game. Second- This Alchemist provides a source for (and control point) for magical items in the game. if the Alchemist is in a well located city, it provides a base of o...

So I went back to the beginning of the thread, it was just plain old oriental style paper armor - advantages and weaknesses. The best reply was the humorous immunity from rocks and vulnerable to scissors To sum it up, the laminated style of paper armor would work, I think the AR and SDC was agreed o...

I wonder how the rune armour would stand up to Kormath, Kymnarchmar? Are you referring to the Rune Armour in the back of Dragons & Gods? no, the rune parchment armour, I have been discussing on this thread for awhile now, I was joking, it can't be made, the end - if made the enter Kormath and h...

I think it would fit somewhere between soft and studded leather armour. A.R. 10, S.D.C. 30 OR It fits between Chain and Scale armour A.R. 14, S.D.C. 60 I cant decide between the two. I would go with AR 12 SDC 40 and split the difference. yes good call on the split, never indestructible! . . .. hmmm...

Also, I still disagree about paper armor unbalancing the Fantasy world.

Consider my previous post a retraction of munchkin butt dweeb
I picked up the munchkin term from elsewhere in the threads, and truly, I don't know what a munchkin is, but my wife and I call our four year old munchkin as a term of affection.

In regards to the last two posts I need to amend my previous comments. Barna, continue to stick with PB games, but can I request that you couch your comments in a less negative manner when criticizing? The idea of the uber paper armor DOES eff up the game balance.

Wizards are a staple, but thief O.C.C. is just a collection of skills, not really better at doing his job than anyone else with same skill set.

I think I recall reading a thing by Kitsune on her web pages where she developed a half elf/human.

Oh Barna10 you make me laugh! I used munchkin from a previous post, and the brain surgeon came directly from page 119. I was not trying to offend.

So here's what I propose: Indestructible Parchment Armor (looks like lighter colored leather armor, same construction) [A.R. 10 versus blunt attacks, A.R. 13 versus piercing or slashing attacks (A.R. 15 for high quality workmanship)] The armor has no S.D.C. rating since it is indestructible. The ab...

This should clear all speculation of using/creating paper armor using indestructible runes. Read the page 119 of the PF Main (2nd Ed.) book regarding use of indestructible runes on parchment. Long and the short of it is it will not work. I would have copied the applicable text and pasted it but that...
