Well, you can always cut your own foam. Although at $50 might want to just pick up a pelican case and cut your own foam. Keep your mage wars on top of your suppressed ruger O.o

Player Feedback and Suggestions / Re: Flat damage.
« on: September 17, 2013, 11:26:18 PM »
I am most definitely a member of the "sad die rollers" club and really would LOVE to see flat damage attacks.
I think a fair bit would be attacks with X normal and X die with the ratio TBD
i.e. what would be a 4 dice attack would be 1 damage + 2d or a 6 dice attack 2 damage + 4d
Then I wouldn't feel so robbed when I roll 8 dice and get a 1. Or a 0 on 4 dice. Unlike my friend who has ungodly die rolls (I ESPECIALLY hate playing Formula D with him b/c every die roll is perfect, he wins races REGULARLY by 60+ spaces just b/c of the perfect die rolls. Everyone's in a foul mood after playing with him just because of how statistical improbability his rolls vs our normal human rolls.
Anywho, PLEASE DO THIS!
I feel kind of sad thinking I have debated implementing a house rule just because I have terrible luck.

Spellbook Design and Construction / Re: The Highly Calibrated Wizard

Dude! So the book is great, and I actually had adapted it to a Warlord build, just because I like to take an idea and sort of make it mine since I don't like just straight up copying people.
It worked really well except
A) Since I built it Warlord I really had to cut out with a lot of Arcane which included 2 teleports and a teleport trap
B) Channeling sucks
C) played against a really nice Beastmaster
It basically came down to me rolling for the last 4 damage and on 11 dice (Warlord melee and Grimson) I rolled 1 on the Grimson and a 2 (he had 2 armor)
I had filled the space with what I thought would be good filler which was 6 goblin grunts and a standard bearer along with a couple pieces of equipment which I thought would let me rely less on the separate command spells and other arcane spells, but his pet grizzly tore through them like tissue paper.
By the time i had my 2 golems out guarding, he rolled in 6 critical 2 separate instances with 7 dice. It was retarded.
Anyway, gonna take it back to the wizard and give it a go tomorrow >.<
I might try Warlord one more time, but I feel like I'm just gimping myself for no reason.
