If you want to be technical about it, we're still accepting submissions... it's that the people we you do accept get put on the waiting list >.>

I can't decide on a feat to get...

I can help with that. What kind of feat are you looking for? Versatility? Damage output? Lastability during dungeon runs? Roleplayingness?

Versatility, RPyness maybe, but mostly something to make me a better disabler. I take people out of the fight, and keep 'em out.

Hmmm.. a little over 1K gold...what good magic items to get...

[tryrar]

mrrgh I can only afford a +1 heavy shield if I manage to sell my masterwork light shield for full price. Would that be possible?(If not my backup plan is simply getting my chain shirt enchanted)

[Heron TSG]

Sorry I'm late, friends needed help moving stuff in. Is the game still up? I can't seem to connect.

[Rolepgeek]

...a +1 Heavy shield would cost you like 1020 at most. Even at half price, a masterwork light shield should get you 75(haggling should always be permissible), plus the 1000...

Sorry, the game ended. : (

Still taking submissions? Good, but a question: How would you guys take carrying around a light ballista, and what feats would you allow for it? Would you accept siege op./crossbow/both?

On a side note, Minotaur running around with a ballista. (Still have to finish character sheet- browser crashed when I got it finished without saving...)

Spoiler: Journal of Oathtower Eosri, page 5 (click to show/hide)

Today has been an eventful day. After a speech from Lady Distinda, we were escorted by an engineer named Three, down a hallway with an absurdly thick flow of magic (I could detect it without using any powers of my own), to an ambush he had apparently planned for us. Invisible Goblins, and a room full of explosive powder. Then he whisked us all (thankfully not the Goblins or the powder) to a strange demiplane, with four earthen pillars, and large insects that looked like they were hand-drawn in the air, and not well. I shot Three in the back as he fled (with the Arrows of Dusk), rendering him unconscious, while the others dealt with the native monstrosities. I confiscated his portal-activation device, and brought everyone back to the powder room.

Three's motivation was that he's allied with the Duke, who wants to create his own kingdom, using the mine as a source for weapons-type materials, like the exploding powder. He's also managed to create these portal devices, which are, when used in specific locations, able to warp the user and specific people nearby to other warp portals or to various demiplanes, based (I think) on the rune that's drawn.

After we (with some help from Lady Distinda and some rope) sorted that mess out Diplomatically, we tried another portal. We found ourselves on some kind of icy ship, filled with ants. We dispatched them easily (although one of them spat acid on me), but couldn't make heads or tails of their written system even when we found what seemed to be some kind of control panel. We returned to Distinda, warning her to watch out for monsters coming through that portal (to much eyerolling), and have settled down for the night to recuperate. We'll have an opportunity to spend our earnings thus far to resupply in the morning.

In hindsight... I thought ants were incapable of sentient thought. Their ship wasn't exactly structured in its layout, but I don't think it was made by the random habits of vermin; having "control panels" guarded by soldiers is evidence of that. So who built them a fortress? Or, who is it that owns a fortress and employs ants (capable of reading written text, possibly) as guards? Hard questions, but without a means to interpret any of the clues we do manage to stumble upon, looking there seems a little pointless.

Further hindsight: I re-read my previous journal entry, on the lamia-type creature. It was associated with giant ants... a possible connection? I'll need to remain open to all possibilities, but it's possible.

Still to come: Drawring of the portal device.

1) It's currently for waiting list positions.

2) ... Is that possible with ANY currently published or homebrew material?

I... wouldn't bother asking what's possible with homebrew material. There's a fair bit of it. Most of it is tripe. Like fanfiction, but with slightly fewer typos, and many more poorly-made graphs.

I'd consider it possible because some book (I'd found it on the SRD, but can't seem to find that page now; searching provides Heroes of Battle as a source-checking into that) states that a light ballista is a Large weapon, and can be operated by 1 medium or large creature (mediums take attack penalty).

*snip*

EDIT: This was confirmed by checking the Heroes of Battle .pdf found here, table top of page 67, stating that a light ballista is a medium weapon, and can thus be used by a large creature, no problem. The thing itself will weigh 400 lbs. and each bolt will weigh 6 lbs, so I can take penalties accordingly, and make a sufficiently strong minotaur.

Does anyone have a lot of experience with macros?  What I am trying to do is simplify mine so I do not have to create a new macro for every level.  Is there a way so I can just input how many power points I wish to use and have it update the rest of the information for me?  Let me know if this is not clear enough for an answer.

You would have to draw from your token variables. They already exist for STR, DEX, HP, and the like, but without modifying classes there's not really a way to add in level. Though you good just enter your level in the Elevation box and use that as your variable. Just have the number of power points used as an argument that you then set equal to a variable for use later in the formulae.
