Awesomest Real Life --> D&D conversions or vice versa

Nov 27, 2008 20:31:22 Anyone who's played D&D for long enough (or at least anyone with an obsessive personality like me) has done this at one point or other. What's the save DC for jumping out of the way of a car? Who's a PC in your school and who's an NPC? What class levels and ability scores do you have? How about Barack Obama?

And the reverse: How fast can a dragon fly? How fast does a Monk/Swfitblade run? (Note, we calculated that one, and it was in excess of 60 mph.) And are Halflings just too small to take seriously as melee combatants or not?

Of course I have my own stories to tell, but I'll keep them out of the first post.

Nov 28, 2008 18:50:07 Barack Obama? Warlord, Cha major stat.

Simo Häyhä. With over 500 confirmed sniper kills with a scopeless rifle and 200 with a submachine gun, I'd guess his class is The White Death.

Nov 28, 2008 22:56:29 How well prepared for a Tarrasque (Under Abomination in the 4e MM) if it came by?

How many licks would it take to get to the bottom of the astral sea?

Nov 29, 2008 18:07:46 Your average tank can kill a demon, even a simple little recoiless riffle does 10D6.

Trying to replace the system for building ships. d20's should never be hit dice.

Barack Obama? epic Telepath (Psion)/Enchanter (Wiz)/Thrallherd/Society Mind.
Did I forget leadership and all minions being teeps and enchanters?

Except my DMG tells me even an antimatter rifle does 6d8 and an automatic rifle does 2d8.

Dec 01, 2008 20:05:28 Wizards up every thing after pl6, mostly due to trying to stick to the 2dx damage for all guns. Notice how a ship by my design will have around 20 hit dice when a wizards ship will have 2?

Dec 12, 2008 5:02:36 I'm currently figuring out how my friend Meilin was able to put five shots from an air pellet literally into the same hole, in the standing position. Holy ****. I'm serious, her first shot pierced the exact center of the target without disturbing the second ring.

The other four shots went through and pretty much didn't widen the hole at all.

HP wise, we could throw Meilin off of a building and it would just make her mad.
