So Hostmonster is once again upgrading servers in the first week of February. Sometimes this causes glitches and the site may show up intermittently as offline. Not to worry, I'll be watching them. But if any of you notice the site is not working right or you can't access it, email me so I can bitch...

Also, looking back on your original post and the examples there, some of those situations simply would not work. The spell has a 12' diameter circle area of effect - a circle 12' across. No way could you fit 5, 6, 7, or 8 wagons, horses, chariots, etc. in that space. So considering that, it would by...

I'm thinking, as you said, having it be able to make duplicate things like horses would make it a more powerful spell. But the spell has inherent problems. The spell says that the duplicates do exactly what the actual wizard does . So if the wizard mounts a horse, do all 8 images (assuming the max n...

Yeah, California is as failed a state as you can get. About as bad as Illinois is up here. Totally fucked. I thought they had something in a ballot about voting to split CA as you mentioned - I thought it was something where they wanted southern CA (LA area) to be broken off the north end. They want...

Yeah, can't be done. You figure, if you have a 300 pg. supplement, you're going to need about 50 pages to detail all the background, ways in and out, monsters, etc. The original Undermountain box set had 39 pages that were not room descriptions. And that was in a supplement that had only 126 pages, ...

I couldn't get past the first sentence or two. The guy is a fucking idiot. The moment someone starts whining about how alignment is a straightjacket because you can't be a CE druid, they lost the argument and proved their ignorance of the system. D&D (the real game not the 3E-5E crap) is based o...

That Castle of the Archmage sounds phony. Another 13 leveled dungeon detailed in one book? Unless it's 600+ pages, that's simply not possible and still have any sort of quality to it.

I never heard of it, but then again I can't stand anime.

Glad to see I was able to get your account working again! Yeah, not a lot of rooms left.

It is stated.

"A wizard can have only one familiar at a time, however, and he has no control over what sort of creature answers the summoning, if any at all come."

2E PHB, pg. 134

I've had so few dual or multi-classed player characters over the years (only one player ever really had a dual classed character) that this has never come up. Here's my thoughts though... A familiar is magically bound to the character, so I would rule that the familiar stays. After all, a dual class...

Perfect! Thank you so much!

Any luck finding the PHB?

I needed the DMG, also, thanks. But I really needed a copy of the PHB more so. Do you have a link to that?

Does anyone have a copy of the original 2E PHB in PDF? I swear I had a copy but I can't find it. Just that reprinted crap.

I would run it for these guys of they wanted because we're all spread out across the Chicago suburbs and it's a bitch to meet, but they have a low attendance rate so if it's a ton of work to set up, I won't do it.

Is it a lot of work to set it up?

I'm not keen on doing it myself. But can it be done? I mean, set up to run 1E or 2E?

Does anyone know whether you can use the Rolld20 website to run a 1E or 2E game? I have some old friends who wanted to try it, but I refuse to run anything other than 1E or 2E.

Never had a problem with that because usually when I've made my own world I've had players who were good and/or long time friends, so we'd all sit around and discuss ideas for the world. So they were good with it from day one.

I usually try to first decide whether the world has one set of deities for the entire world, or whether each country or region has its own set of gods. For example, in the former situation, the entire world would worship the same pantheon - say the Norse gods - no matter where in that world you go. ...

The math may all go one way, but everything else is all over the board!

Simpler my ass. It's a mess. You can quote me on that!

The people who scream about diversity constantly are the very ones who actually hate diversity. They want everything to be the same. They want everyone to believe the same things, vote the same way, eat the same thing, cheer for the same side (in sports, war, etc), endorse the same candidates, promo...
