    They better pay me royalties on that

    Grab the PHB while you can, they should only be 20 bucks (that'd be what, 14 pounds?), but I've heard rumors they're going to raise the price to 30. That's all you need, the 3rd edition DMG and Monster Manual are quite inessential.
    We don't use pounds. USD20 is $155 here, but usually US books are sold at x10, so the PH is going to be $200.

      Seeing as there's no choice but to go further in, I suppose we have to.

        UR:

        Okay, I'll allow you to be a ranger, on the condition that you're either human or half-elf. If you wanna be an iron golem, you gotta be a fighter.

        Shi and SnowFire:

        The black dragon swoops down, eats the orcish warlord, and chokes to death on the plate armor.

        Meanwhile...

        *checks Monster Manual netbook for something evil enough*

        *mumbling to himself* Hmmm... Baatezu... climate/terrain: The Nine Hells... excellent... or maybe... a Death Knight?

        Everyone looking into the cave sees a hulking figure in pitch-black armor with two tiny, red pinpoints that appear to be eyes. It is carrying a two-handed sword, is accompanied by several skeletons and other assorted undead, and has one of those smiley-face buttons on his armor.

        What do you do?

          I, the brave undead hunter, challenge the Death Knight to single combat.

          If I have any protective spells, I cast them now.

              Hey, if I'm a Lich and Sandman's an Undead Hunter, what's this going to do for our party dynamics?

                Loinburger:

                Simple. Don't be a Lich, then. Then again, there's more of a threat from the death knight right now than from you, so you could be safe now. Also, it is possible for liches to become good-aligned...

                Sandman:

                You automatically have Protection from Evil, so the Death Knight automatically gets a -1 THAC0 penalty.

                Also, if you wanted to be able to turn this damn thing, you would need to be at least 8th-level to have any chance of success.

                Since Lorizael's 5th-level, I'd say you're at the same level. You need to be 9th-level in order to use priest spells, so Protection from Evil's all you got.

                      Ok, well, my challenge still stands.

                      If the death knight agrees to single combat I go in and fight him (aiming for the smilie button; must be the source of his power).

                      If he disagrees I back off and form up into a fighting unit with the rest of the 'group'.

                        GACK! I fire my arrows at the pin points of light.

                          I play a modified 1st edition (it was unmodified until 2nd editon came along and ruined everything, and I figured if TSR could arbitrarily change things, so could I). My major problem with third edition is the hard limit on character levels -- what is this, a computer game?
                          No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                              Mad Monk: TSR's going to come out with a new handbook for upper-level (20+) character rules.

                              In the spirit of this good-aligned party, I'll play a Solar instead of a Balor. I whallop the death knight with my +5 Dancing Vorpal Greatsword. Wutang!

                                Sandman: Since Che fired arrows at him, he turns down your request.

                                Urban: Let's see, fifth-level, so tracking, hiding in shadows, moving silently, and animal empathy.

                                Now, we have a battle between six PCs and an enemy party consisting of a Death Knight, seven skeletons, and two wights.

                                Need your actions before I roll initiative.
