| Lets say I have a 10th level warlord (not likely given my win/loss ratio) and one of his LT of the same Faction promotes and grabs a few LT but Not all of them. Could one of the unchosen LT's, IF it can be in more than one faction, become the LT of a different warlord, assuming that other warlord has space? Like a Xen'drik champ moving from CG to CE or visa versa?

I would say no. There has never been any presedence for having a Lt move from one warlord to another. The only time a Lt would leave it's current warlord is to be promoted, or following a promoted Lt.
If you think about it, allowing a Lt to change warlords would then open the question of changing warlords between players. "Can I trade ABC(LG) Gith Monk Lt with ZYX(LG) Warforged Bodyguard Lt?" We are not going to go there. Galn may say you can transfer between your own, like you were asking, but I doubt it.

As written: No. Nothing in the rules to indicate this might be possible. Intention: No. Future Change: would need some very convincing arguements =) | | Join the Eternal Skirmish Campaign.

Right now search results spit out "The Eternal Skirmish Campaign V3.01" as the title of every page.
Done.

Ok, teh search engine is now weighs the page title, description, and keywords higher and headings even more. Now I just need to add some description and keywords...=P
quote: It looks like it's having trouble writing a logfile of what those searches are too, FYI.
Fixed!
THanks a ton for the help =D

| | Win or lose this week my cleric of corellon will hit level 5 and get a feat. I think I plan on taking scribe scroll, so can I use the feat instead of rolling an item for that game, or would my feat not be usable till the next week since I was still only level 4 during the game? | |

Not till next week. Good point though, that should be clarified. I could see the same Q about someone taking Identify, if they could use it the same week. | | Join the Eternal Skirmish Campaign.

| | I'd see this as something more to be put in the warlord leveling section, stating all leveling options aren't available til the next week (or after the match at least). That way we don't need to make sure each instance where the question could come up has it listed. | | Champion of the Hellwasp Swarm New subscriber to rule #0: bshugg is always right. | |

| Now here's an interesting lieutenant commander effect that's perfectly legal as written...
Take the ENEMY-TYPE enemies lose Conceal. A valid ENEMY-TYPE is "Conceal and Incorporeal".
So... "Conceal and Incorporeal enemies lose Conceal..." That enemy type should probably be removed, since conceal really isn't a type, and anyone with incorporeal will be undead (without items at least). And as written, that partial CFX is just too powerful. | | Champion of the Hellwasp Swarm New subscriber to rule #0: bshugg is always right. | |

Yes, which is why nobody would choose just an incorporeal type (without conceal bundled in) over Undead. And if conceal is dropped from the type, then there isn't much need for incorporeal on the list too. | | Champion of the Hellwasp Swarm New subscriber to rule #0: bshugg is always right. | |

| huh.
Any recommendation on what group of creatures we could reaplce it with?
Groups should contain between 30-50 creatures (I think...can't quite recall)

Don't forget the creatures with this item power!
32-34 Etherealness Incorporeal while moving
Of course it only works on attacks of opportunity. :) | | | |

| I'd probably just bump everything in the ENEMY-TYPE table down one and make the last option a user's choice for now. There's already a good number of options, in my opinion.
Also for scrolls, is it possible to use a scroll for a spell that the metamagic wouldn't apply? For example, a Heightened Scroll of Magic Weapon. The heighten does nothing for that spell. Would this grant the extra casting (but the metamagic component would do nothing) or would you not be able to use that combination? | | Champion of the Hellwasp Swarm New subscriber to rule #0: bshugg is always right. | |

| From Guy's clarifications:
quote: Effects which increase, reduce, or otherwise modify the Justice Archon's damage apply normally when using Justice Strike. If the Justice Archon suffers from a ray of enfeeblement spell (damage -5 [minimum 5] and other effects), the Justice Archon applies a -5 penalty to the printed damage of the target's first melee attack. If the Justice Archon were the recipient of an allied Sword Archon's commander effect ("Followers with Fearless get melee damage +5."), the Justice Archon applies a +5 bonus to the printed damage of the target's first melee attack.
That said, the rules for EC V3 say:
quote: Only one of the weapons gains the benefits of the magical weapon.
So, I'd think that an Ioun Stone of +5 damage(which boosts damage to all attacks made by the creature) would affect the justice strike, but a flaming sword (which only modifies the attacks with that weapon) would not. Feats like power attack modify the damage on the stat card, so they would also not apply.
Does that sound about right? | | CHAMPION OF THE CURRY GOLEM! | |

| Not sure if this has been asked before, but I couldn't easily find it...
So a quaggoth slave equips a death strike weapon, is reduced to zero hp, takes his death strike and hits. This would put him back to a positive total as his first hit gives him 20 hp. Does he live or die? | | Champion of the Hellwasp Swarm New subscriber to rule #0: bshugg is always right. | |

| | I believe Guy has ruled that once you use death strike, you will die; death force would be an exception to this. I can't remember where I read that... probably a compination of cleric of nerul and one of the creatures with drain. | | CHAMPION OF THE CURRY GOLEM! | |

The line about only one weapon gains the benefits of the magical weapon was refering to creaures that use multiple weapons (Halflin Veteran, Longstrider Ranger, etc.) You can see if a creature has more than one melee weapon on the RPG side of the card.
As for the JA modifiers, I had posted in another thread, here, how the modifers to a JA's justice strike would be calculated.
EDIT: Finally got the link working. Post is near bottom of page 1. | | | |

| Btw, Returning weapons and the Mask of the Skull (the unique major item, not a Head slot with the power "the Skull") use your full level instead of warlord level to attack, right?
Also, I want to point out that a Mask of the Skull could be a headslot item that grants the wearer the undead creature type... | | CHAMPION OF THE CURRY GOLEM! | |
