Hi.

I've never done any of these RPGA campaigns before, and I figured I'd give Xen'drik a try, as it's new and all.

I was making my way through the Campaign Standards, and apparently in order to take a feat that does not appear in the PHB or Eberon book (which I don't have) you have to have a campaign card, or use your expansion list, which would only get you one feat ?

So if I play a psionic character (psions and psychic warriors get bonus feats at 1st level, psions have to choose psionic feats, the PHB has none) I have to have a card or eat slots to get feats that I'm supposed to get according to my class? :confused: A first-level human psychic warrior or psion gets 3 feats, and as fara s I understand it, only one of those could be from the Psionics handbook or Complete Psionic?

Actually, come to think of it, can I even play a character with levels in a psionic class? I mean, the XPH and Comp. Psi are on the list, I had first assumed that you could use them... Grr, I'm confused.

If I show up without a DMG or MM, will I still be able to play, assuming that my character has nothing that refers to those books, and I have the relevant source material for what my character does have?

I think that's it for now.

08-07-06, 01:06 PM You need a campaign card to play a psionic character, but that card opens up a lot of stuff that you don't need to put in your expansion slots. And in case it was unclear, you get one expansion slot PER LEVEL. So you can unlock a lot of feats, items, spells, etc., not just one.

Well, since I don't have any camapign cards, I guess that that's out.

So long human Psychic Warrior, hello Spellscale Barbarian.
