tell a story about pointless fights... |

Interesting pointless fights you say? Well, as expected mine have usually been amongst party members. In fact, I don't think I've played one game without them. The problem is, they always happen the very second the game starts. So, while pointless, many of the fights were not very interesting. However, the aftermaths usually were. Like the one time my friend was running... something he found/made up and the rules were very very loose. So, when a party member died because of one person getting bored, we ended up having to sacrifice the remains to the god of knowledge so we could get him back as a ghost. Meanwhile, the setting this was being done in was modern day North Korea. So yeah, it was a fighter, a Mage, a rogue, and a now dead/ghost ranger in North Korea where everyone else had guns. Getting rid of the one guy who could have been useful with a gun, pointless. Making him come back as a ghost because reasons, predictable. Then using that ghost to insult Kim Jong Un at the 36th parallel through song because you can't kill what's dead? Priceless. |

So was playing one of several "You are a god" games I had played on the Giant in the Playground forums (most of which were disasters and not in a fun way). I was playing an Undead God. Less evil. More Black Metal. |

Well ther was this time, when This guy was DMing a D&D adventure and his Dwarven fortress was menat to be impenetrable. You got the feeling the walls were made out of Dwarven defenders. He really went nuts with them. The problem were not the 4 guard at the gate. The problem was, that every wall was stationed with a classic dwarven defender .... with a tower shield .... and an axe .... Only someone forgot to give them bows. They turned out to be quite useless in the fight... |

Playing as a Female Drow Sorcerer in disguise (Lawful Evil, I regret nothing, and just want to build my own little empire), a Good member of the party got this crazy idea that I'd betrayed the party and attacked me as I climbed out of a death trap battlefield and sealed the hatchway behind us. Attack roll, damage roll, and all. |

A long long time ago, an idiot far away decided to multiclass from just barbarian to bardbarion. This action troubled the psionic, for he believed this to be folly. He tried to instruct the young bardbarian in proper training, but the young bardbarian was headstrong, and uninterested in these lessons. |

Crazy part Is, BardBarian is in almost every mechanical way (except Max HP) noticably superior to a Straight Barbarian |

Early in a Dark Heresy campaign, my null character was participating in an investigation in the lower levels of a hive city, and encountered a tavern with a heretical and blasphemous name. He was a bit abrasive about it to the bouncers, and wound up provoking them into a fight. |

Okay, so GM is obviously not going to allow Emma to keep her player. The real question is though, will the three continue to be players at all? Or did we take their continued stay for granted? |

given the size of luffy's crew, i'm sure there will be a spot for them, in the mean time, there are plenty of side character they cane be - nami's sister, smoker, vivi... the goes on, they will be sticking around for a while. |

I like to think that he is just inflicting sympathy wounds whenever Zoro gets hurt. |
12th May 2014, 8:50 AM
Well Nat, Cory is just jealous, which is a good motivating factor for PvP actually. |
12th May 2014, 12:32 PM
Was that an 18 on the die or 18 total? If the former than Cory must have been lying about not banking on getting a 20 (which still didn't help him.) |
12th May 2014, 2:42 PM
Perhaps he's not banking on hitting him right now, but rather to try something later? There's no reason to not attack skip on the opportunity to get a 20. |
12th May 2014, 11:00 PM
well Zoro is looking at between -12 to -16 to hit on his later iteratives so rolling an 18 only lets him hit AC2 before his Str mod and weapon enchantments if Mihawk is sporting a massive AC in additon to early manuver cheese then yeah rolling 18 can be a miss this late in the round |
13th May 2014, 6:41 AM
Huh, so Zoro gets an attack penalty on his later attacks? Huh, the more you know. |
17th May 2014, 11:33 AM
Yeah, dual wielding imposes penalties on rolls to hit, even with the feats to specialize in it. d20srd.org explains 3.5's skeleton; dndtools.eu has some of the supplements that allow one to start cheesing things. |
