Thank you : - ) I haven't yet used extensively IMC my history of traladara, but i'm happy that my writings are useful to someone.. : - ) Bye Francesco ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 17 Aug 2002 17:54:04 -0400 From: David Knott Subject: Re: Feat: Sworn Enemy What is the point of this feat? Why not just give your new prestige class the ranger favored enemy ability? It would seem that you would be undercutting both the core ranger class and your new prestige class by making this ability a feat that anyone could theoretically take, even with the difficult prerequisites that you added. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darth Darknerd" To: Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2002 12:50 PM Subject: Re: [MYSTARA] Feat: Sworn Enemy > Hey, > > Somehow, there was a copy paste problem.

I bought the latest releases for "Broncosaurus Rex" and was looking at their upcoming releases. They are coming out with a three part series called "Aerial Adventure Guide". The first book is all about aerial races, classes, etc. The second one is about the floating city of the Sky Elves. The third is about magic items, sky ships and monsters. The Mystara-related note comes from the name of the city - "Sellaine, Jewel of the Clouds" I mentioned to the author that I would be getting all three to use in my campaign using the Princess Ark and Serraine the flying city of the gnomes (from Top Ballista). He said (and I quote) "I didn't think that anyone would get that reference." Mystara Fans are everywhere! Cap'n Frank PS Their website is www.goodman-games.com. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 17 Aug 2002 18:15:24 -0700 From: David Keyser Subject: Re: 3E/Mystara News from Gen Con Did he think he was the only one who bought PC2 Top Ballista?
