Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
* Pyrotechnics does not allow me to create a dragon firework that explodes somewhere over Bywater.
** And I'm not allowed to try and play "catch up" on halflings by stealing their stuff while they're watching the show.
* "Smite Good" refers to alignment, not effectiveness.
* Flash photography against the vampire in the party is not on.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
I believe he was talking about the points he was adding. But anyways, in our present situation, our de facto first rule in Shadowrun is :
Plan B : Add 20kg of high explosives.
It as worked spectacularly for the time being.
* In Shadowrun, Plan A must never be use 20kg of high explosives. It derails the plot and any further plans from the DM.
**Faking the explosion is, on the other hand, perfectly fine.

*I am encouraged to role play dialog between myself and any folowers that I controll. However if the dialog sounds like this I am to be hit in the head with a bat, repeatedly.
"Tangos in building ahead!. Ryans, and Macniel lay down covering fire from that defelade, Kowalski, breach the door, Sanovich and Montigleoni with me"
"sir yes sir"
"tangos at three o clock in the alley"
"Kowalski Status report!"
"Wizard three this is charlie six, you are cleared to engage"
*I may not create or utilize a magical equivalent of walkie talkies
**I may not speak in military phonetics on them
***I may not use them to direct artillery fire, call for reinforcements, or call in air strikes
*I may use thrown weapons that explode, I may not use them to clear rooms prior to my entry
** I may not shout "Grenade!" or "Frag Out!" while doing so.
*If I create another spec ops team equiped with automatic crossbows, vials of alchemist fire, magical communications gear, and trained in aquatic insertions I will be beated with a golf club.
**No more D&D seal teams.
*If I convince the other pcs to go along with me and create a party of awakened penguin artificers, I am awesome.
**If their names are Skipper, Kowalski, Ricco, and Private, I will be sued for copyright infringement. and will still be awesome.

*The Warforged may not be a cleric/decisive strike monk/Bard.
**If he is, he may not have extend spell.
***If he has extend spell, he may not use it to start a fight with extending a cure or inflict line spell.
****Especially if he's got a way of either empowering or maximizing it, and more so if he's got a way of doing both.
*****Can't also have song of the white raven.
******Under no circumstances if the above rules are broken may he start a fight by hitting an opponent with a decisive unarmed strike channeling an appropriate Cure/Inflict spell while inspiring courage.
*If he does so, he may not declare in or out of character that he's got the touch, or the power.
*Yeah."I Burn!"

*** Nor may I drop drop bears on the fighter's head.
**** I may not sell drop bear repellant to the fighter after telling him of vicious drop bear attacks, even though I know there is no such thing as a drop bear.
***** I may not be surprised when the DM drops a drop bear on my head, just to prove that there ARE, in fact, drop bears.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
*Charm Persons Stomatic Component is not a hand wave.
*Neither is Suggestions.
*Even if I have that skill trick that let's me disguise my casting.
*If I have that skill trick, I may not know Suggestion or Charm person.
*More so if there are Warforged in the party.
*And I am absolutely not permitted to be able to silence either spell.
*Ignoring the rules so that I can wave my hand and cast the spell and then inform the guards that these are not the warforged they are looking for and that I can go about my business will cause the guards to all suddenly have mind blank and the ability to auto detect what I'm doing, then to attack."I Burn!"

**The somatic component to Charm Person most certainly does not involve removal of clothing.
***If I put it down to a Wardrobe Malfunction I will lose my Charm Privileges.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
Originally heard of Drop Bears from EV Nova, and based the above on it, yes. However, I have since then read/seen other occurrences of Drop Bears, namely on the continent of XXXX on Discworld.
Speaking of which:
****** May not use unnaturally pointy hats as a defense against drop bears.
