heGreyReversed, would you be willing to post a finished alchemist? I've never seen an alchemist write-up outside of D20, and would be interested in seeing what your take on one looks like. Also, I revised my prior post for clarity. When I reread it, it seemed rather muddled to me (though I was quite...

Actually I include the drawing of the transmutation circle as a required action in combat before transmutation... Sounds like you've got a handle on that then. Ultimately your players will likely prefer the way you’re doing it over my suggestion, as it grants them greater flexibility in combat. Lv ...

If spamming persists you may have no other choice (at least if you don't want posts getting flooded and bumped around as a result of the spam). Still, I had hoped it wouldn't come to this as the boards have received a great deal of interesting and informative posts from unregistered posters. ...But ...

Clay: Don't worry about reviewing all of my concept posts, most of them are unpolished and unfinished (though I do greatly appreciate any feedback given). As far as using any OVA rules or errata I post, though my posts are hardly professional quality works, feel free to publish or rework them as you...

(target yourself so you can release an attack through power move) Under the current rules, in order for an arcane magic user to cast a Power Move he must first cast that Power Move on someone, granting that person the ability to use the Power Move when they are next able to (as limited by the spell...

It seems we have a little more spam in the OVA section too, but thankfully not as many as last time.

Using Power Move to make attacks can seem a bit awkward (target yourself so you can release an attack through power move), but you get used to it after a while. Still, if you'd rather not use that method, here's a method I came up with for creating more intuitive magical attacks in my campaigns. Mag...

I'm not sure if you really want any ideas yet (given that you haven’t posted the poll), but I thought I might offer what I like, and a few ideas, anyway (I hope I'm not being a pest with all of these posts on sundry concepts, I just like to share my ideas, the worthwhile ones anyway). Saying what Me...

My bad. I was mysteriously logged out, and as such, was not informed there were new posts. I actually DO check daily, but I just thought it was all old since no little yellow post-its showed up... I stand corrected. I just assumed you were busy, what with the two OVA guides, the two projects with N...

Ah, how you humans disappoint me. There was a time when you were an admirable sort, ready and willing to strive and labor for the answers to your juvenile questions of the universe. Alas, this silly thing called the internet has made you lazy. You think you can just ask, and the answer you will rec...

Not a bad little tale. I don't read much H.P. Lovecraft, but I thought its mood definitely fit the situation. As for the significance of the bottles, that's an interesting question. The story is a bit vague on the details, so I'm sure that opinions range the gamut, however, I'll try my best to asser...

What the... spam?!?

Seriously, why the spam? I don't think anyone who uses these boards cares for the spamming, and if it keeps up Clay may be forced to remove the unregistered guest poster function (which I don't think anyone wants). I know Clay is busy so he can't regulate these boards everyday, but that shouldn't gi...

A few questions for the wise one...

Here are a few questions that I hope will help me understand the great Wise Turtle a little better (if such a thing is possible for any mortal). From which country do you hail (I hope it isn't China, turtle soup is quite a delicacy there)? How did you come to mentor Clay? How do you use the computer...

Of genres and archetypes...

Here's another question to probe the minds and interests of my fellow posters (though this time there are no lists :) ). What is your favorite genre and archetype of all time, and why do you like each of them so much? Personally I'm a big fan of feudal Japan, but I prefer works of fantasy set in a f...

Count me in. I'll try to offer what help I can, but I've only ever run one Mecha game, and it was in BESM not OVA, so I don't know if I'll be able to help all that much (I've watched Neon Genesis Evangelion, Rahxephon, Gasaraki, and Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 about 10 times each if that counts :) ...
