I don't think many kobold paladins would appreciate that short pun.

Forcing the DM and the other players into a Xanatos Gambit that benefits you without them knowing it at least OoC is usually frowned upon.
*Pulling a full-out Xanatos Roulette is however ok, but don't expect any mercy from the DM in the future.

You are thinking to hard, Implosive device pulls inwards so an implosive device that pulls will a negative streingth pushes outwards thus is actually and explosive device. (though good point on the negative kilotons)
also no self respecting adventurer uses any explosive measured in anything less than megatonnes

* Somatic component for shapechange is not "Gone! gone! - the form of man-"
** Even if I shapechange into an actual demon, it cannot be followed by "Rise, the Demon Etrigan!"
Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
* I may no longer use X-rated media as inspiration for my characters.
** I still may not use it even if I give a well thought out and logical argument as to why it's characters are more likeable and developed than most fantasy fiction.
*** I am not allowed to start murdering humans left, right and centre as a logical response to the DM claiming that human mortality was a "blessing" in Lord of the Rings.

* The reason why my familiar grants bonuses only within 1 mile of me is not because that is the maximum range where he can feed off my soul.
** He will not starve if he leaves that area for a longer time.
*** It does not mean he is incapable of eating normal food.
**** He does not gain the ability to transform into humanoid form with animal traits later on.
***** No more familiar facts gained through reading hentai.
* My wizard might have obtained his familiar as part of his magic guild initiation but that does not mean he had to hatch it from an egg.
** Not all familiars are born from eggs.
As DM:
* Fallout Eberron might sound as a good idea, but should inform the players about it before starting the game.
** X-COM Eberron is not a good campaign concept.
*** Ditto for Deus Ex Eberron
**** Not allowed to do all of the above within the same campaign.
***** Merrix d'Cannith will not act like the Master or Mr House.
****** The Daelkyr are not kidnapping mourners to experiment on and replacing the Great Khorvarian Wasteland's major leaders with clones, nor will the Brotherhood of Steel respond by dispatching squads to fight the abomination incursions via VTOL Airships.
******* Jagged Alliance Eberron is a good campaign idea as long as the PC's are the mercenaries and not the employers of mercenaries.

Hey all... brand new to the forum but I saw this thread and I HAD to post... these aren't all mine but we actually drove a DM to go through the 3rd ed rule books and do a bunch of changes before we converted to the new rule system from 2nd ed.
We may not:
*Cast "Create Water" in anyones pants.
*Buy fish hooks
*Use multiple fish hooks to create horrible traps
*Buy sheets
*Sew the half drow mage into a sack made from sheets
*Buy burlap sacks
*Heat up pots of water for the purposes of blinding nameless enemies
*Heal the blindness of said nameless enemy and convert them into willing minions
*Use said minion to create an army.

*** Even if he is a Warforged.
* Cannot convince entire party to start every fight by using Alter Self to turn into differently colored Warforged
** Even if, I still cannot start every fight by yelling 'I'ts Morphin' time!"
Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
*Cannot create a character who's life goal is to "eat their way through the Monster Manual"
**Even if said character does max out their ranks in Profession (cook)
*The material components for the summon monster spells do not include pokeballs.

* I am not to create a shadowrun campaign where my university's administration is cast as the villains.
** If I do, I am not to be surprised when one of my players has close connections to the administration.
*** It totally rules the feel when the department chair walks in on my horrible caricature of him, and then does it better than me.
**** Delivering textbooks should not be the basis of a campaign.
