I have a PDF of the Player's Handbook, which I will e-mail to you if you don't have a copy, you don't need to memorize it or anything, but it would help to have it handy for this game.If you want to play another race,then No level adjustments above +1.If you give me a good reason to play a race that's not +1 level adjustment I might let you. If you want a different class, just ask(I know all classes for 3.5).

-There is no Encumberence, but please be realistic(no portable rams).
-There will not be any Racial Bonuses to anything other than starting attributes.

Destroy Evil Artifact or destroy Evil Overlord..... I'd be happy either way (as long as nobody pulls an Isildor.....[or a Gollum.....]).

Dibs, why did you just say you would never watch/read it when I asked, but you actively say you want to when Noobs mentions it?
I be talking bout the hobit not LoTR.
I knew that, but it is the principle of the matter.
I would like that. Would it be exceptionally long?
I always wanted to do something like this but could never get it off the ground with you guys. [quote]Well yes, but I wasn't sure whether it would center around The Ring or kicking a Sauron-esque villain's @ss.
Depends on the object, maybe you could even do a Gamers 2esque thing.
Really.
And your entrance has already been arranged, good sir, and it shall be imminently.
Pure filthy lies wench.

I think the Evil Artifact should be Derflinger.

The Hobbit is book 0 of LotR.....

Hobbit
Fellowship
Towers
King

They are actually coming out with the movie for Hobbit.

Also, I wouldn't trust you (Dibs) with DMing a mission like this since you have no source material knowledge...

And I will not go beyond it.

Cool.

Why not, I don't mean an exact lord of the rings type deal, but just something similar.

Burn in hell.

Derflinger? WTF is Derflinger?
Also, another major barrier is that Orcs are mammals and armies therefore can't be spawned.

Magic breeding pods. DM = God = you can make it up and it would be completely legal. Also, it was Urok-hai being spawned at Isengard.

Derf is Dibs's way of compensating for Vrocshar, Pluma, Wolfie and Angel.

Wolfie


How is Wolfie in any way awesome?

Uruk-hai were Orcs crossed with Men of Gondor, so in otherwords Half-Orcs on every drug conceivable.
And BLARGH I'll have to make a new plane of existence >.>

Please don't do this.


Why not? There is more than enough resources available to make a Middle Earth plane.

Because I really really really don't want this to happen, I would be fine if it involved things that already existed and didn't follow lord of the rings.

Nope.

I would keep things as close to D&D as possible... not much would change, really, except the geography, politics and where the races are as one would expect for a separate plane.

Nope.


Si, Wolfie has enough HD on the advancement-thingy to move up to Large size.

It covers campaigns (on a small and an incredibly epic level), CI, party formation, enemy coherence and several other fields you need to work on. Also, it is a kick *** trilogy.

I've actually read the Lord of the Rings trilogy plus the Hobbit, and I can say with 100% certainty that you sir, are just making **** up. LotR is your standard medieval fantasy fare, not a Everything Guide to RPGs. I'm not saying it's not a great series in both book and movie form, but you're overselling it by a long shot.

LotR was a book way back in 40s. You should watch it.

I should watch a book?

You can't really believe you are good at any of that ****.....

You're really mean sometimes dude, you know that? That was totally uncalled for...

I was actually thinking of a campaign like that, though sadly I need most of the Monster Manuals to make it happen :|

Please don't.

Fine, no LotR campaign.
And so you know the current campaign was planned well before this discussion.
