Judge Hades Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 In my DnD campaigns I allow space travel but it is real world space and space physics. magic can be used to power rockets and the such if one wishes to try but you better bring along a way survive a vaccuum. Also arcane magic tends to be centered on the world itself so as a wizard moves farther away from the planet the less potent his spells are. Druids become completely powerless because they loose connection to the natural world unless they go back to the home planet or touch down on a new life abundent world and "re-attune" themselves. Clerics, by their nature do not lose power because they are divine conduits of their gods though bring their faith to a new world might tick off the gods of that planet. Sorcerers and bards tend to be infused with magic but still loose "power," abeit at a slower rate, than wizards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 They need to leave timestop out so they can put it in the first expansion pack: "A bunch of spells to screw up the game". <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They've already made me buy the first expansion pack then.

Gabrielle Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 What better way to kill your enemy but to have them stopped in time? Than you can come at them with your big sword and hack them to death as they die with a look of horror on their face as they could do nothing to stop you.

Volourn Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 "always felt it was a silly munchkin spell." Just because a spell is powerful doesn't make it munchkin. Timestop is a 9th level spell. It should be powerful. Not munchkin though. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorian Drake Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 We like Timestop, what would you say if they just decide that we don't need Fireball, Lightning, Invisibility, or Speed? You get it what i wanna tell you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanschu Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 IMO no other 9th level spell compares to Timestop. That's just me of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabrielle Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 (edited) They should make a firewall spell or a spell that does mass incinerations. Edited January 30, 2006 by Gabrielle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanschu Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I have never played a PnP adventure that would have had me coming close to using a 9th level spell. What's the "real" wish like? Just whatever you want happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volourn Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 "IMO no other 9th level spell compares to Timestop." Oh really? Someone has forgotten about Wish, and Miracle just to name a couple. Not to mention Gate (bringing a demon to you is nothing to sneeze at), true Ressurection, Implosion, and a host of others are just as if not more powerful than Timestop. "They should make a firewall spell" Let's hope so. NWN had/has it. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanschu Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I can see what it was "limited" in the CRPGs. Though, as you say it's up to the DM...in this case the DM being the game itself, to say "you can only do this" with it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyranor Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Hmm, speaking of DMing, I'm pretty tempted to just focus solely on DM mods for NWN2 with Nick. I'm wondering if making the singleplayer mod is worth it. It's a shame I haven't DMed more with NWN. I've only made one mod, and we had pretty good but short run on NeverwinterConnections. We only really did for around a month, and ended up in 3rd place re: DMs for that month with limited effort. We kind of stopped DMing after that, but I don't imagine it would have been to hard to get in the DM Hall of Fame if we tried. I really miss DMing. I should definitely DM more in NWN2. I'm kinda torn, really. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
