Urg thats not a very good choice ;-) Whilst not impossible Kalashtar are Psionic in nature your better going Kalashtar psion/psion warrior

your choice though....

See, I figured that, but I've never played a Psionic character, and I didn't want to slow things down by having to root through books and pages trying to figure out WTF I'm doing (not anymore than usual anyway)

I'll check through the Psionics stuff tonight and see how much I need to get my head around, and if it seems ok, I'll switch Wizard to Psionic...

DM's in my normal Tuesday games don't let me play Psionics... not sure if they're jaded from AD&D ones, or just don't know how they work, so don't want the hassle :) But if you're happy with them being there, that's cool...

There nothing too bad to be honest. Just get your head around selecting the specific type of psion and then the allowed / disallowed powers based on that.

Oh and psionic focus :)

Um you mention 35 points to spend... um whats that ? Rogues get 8+intmod x 4 starting skill points (that makes my 16 int rogue get 44 points).

200g for me is tons I was just going to be a basic rogue and 200g can practically buy be +1 stuff... is that ok? I think a scimitar was 1g or something.

32 point buy...

your stats start at 8 then you pay a cost to improve them... ill dig out a chart

use this .. until the total is 32 :). once done you then apply your racial modifications.

ok I can't find the chart, but is it something like:

0-8 skill costs 0
9-12 costs 1
13-16 costs 2
17-18 costs 3

So for ex to get 18 Str would cost 18 points, bust 16 would only cost 12 ?

With this rule I can have:
Str 12, dex 16, con 10, int 16, wis 10, cha 8. for 32 points, I then apply my ratial -2str and +2 dex. for halfling roguey goodness.

Dont worry too much bud, when Zed first ran an FG game it was for a group on the original DDO pre-beta boards and we had a chap from Germany who was experiencing D&D for the first time.

Just enjoy what you can and ask away if unsure it's the only way to go :D

Some useful stuff Here and also on the wizards site itself.

Always handy to have the Eberron Campaign setting but it isn't essential in any way.

Indeed.

Game will go at a slow pace for the first couple of sessions until people learn their characters and the program. then itll go, er, a little bit faster but not by much

Ok next question :p

How far do we have to go with stuff... so far I have most things I need except food (I have a water skin) and I've spent about 140gp. That includes a pony, bedrol and a traveling outfit and includes all my adventuring gear.

Considering your going to be part of the diggers union ( a guild in Eberron) your probably going too far ;-)

If you dont spend the cash you mioght as well pocket it for laters.

As for not being around: What id like to propose is bringin the client up later this week / weekend and people can access the client, get characters transfered over to the server vault and get familiar with things.

Are you going to host tonight (It's thursday)?

or going to wait for the weekend? I'm busy Saturday evening so far, not sure about sunday.

no plan to bring client up tonight unless people want me to. im doing other stuff so it would simply be there for you to get characters into client ready for game.

first official game kicks off next week.
