Thanks for the feedback, sorry it seems so ad-hoc and hard to understand. Like I said I pretty much got struck by a lot of inspiration at once and rushed inside to post them all before I forgot them so none of those were really fleshed out too well. :) I'm also a big fan of peanut brittle so I find ...

I was outside brainstorming today and I think I struck a maelstrom! I've been trying to think of ways to spice up the perks and flaws for power moves as well as increase the importance of martial arts beyond increasing your bare fisted attack like combat skill (which applies to virtually all combat ...

Hey what would do you guys think the rules for a regeneration ability look like?

Another interesting twist was brought to my attention by a devious player in my PbP campiagn. With the flunky ability it is possible to give the flunkies you create flunkies and their flunkies have flunkies etc. etc. . I quickly found my campiagn at the mercy of this players army of extra deimension...

Actually, until recently I was running a farirly successful OVA PbP campaign on PLay by web. Aside from the fact this was my first time DMing let alone using PbP I think it works pretty well. The only difficulty I noticed is making sure all my players understand the rules. I can't begin to count the...

Hey clay I should have asked this before hand but I'm a tad impulsive. Is it ok if I post the power perks/flaws section from the PDF in my online campaign? It's kinda hard to allow my players to create theire charcters without it. If you want to see what I'm using just go here http://thegreyreversed...

Alright as of today 2/28, 2006 I have seen my 4th spam bot. I know I have just joined these forums recently but the spams already aggravating me so I say you should just restrict anonynous posting.

You kidding me? Hell yes I'd fork over $5.00 for a character generator. I can't begin to tell you how many pages of my notbeook I have to fill just to ensure that I don't waste my precious character sheets on enemies. It would also be pretty cool if you could include some preset enemies too.

Wow both of those concepts sound interesting but I think I prefer the second one. Do the seperate bloodlines form homogenous societies or do heteogenous locations exist where there are a mixture of different species? I was also wondering what excatly the main conflict in the campaign was or should be.

Unlike how most contemporary american RPG systems treat alchemy as an ability to manufacture magical items alchemy in FMA is quite a bit different. In FMA alchemy is treated as a kind of pseudo science with laws very similar to real life chemistry. The most basic law being equivalent exchange: you c...

Melchior, I bow before your immense knowledge of ricochet *bows*. You really hit the nail on the hammer for FMA so don't worry about that. I would also suggest tying the Invention ability to 1 level of Trigger: Draw Transmutation Circle, or some other such catalyst, and causing any alchemy transmuta...

I know how hard it must be for an indie writer like clay to produce sweet anime/RPG goodness like OVA. The more people who discover OVA and purchase it the more money clay has to reinvest in future editions and supplements. I would love to see OVA become better and I was wondering if there was anyth...
