3.5 epic game (gestalt?)

I've always liked playing characters that are beyond the normal humanoid PCs, and it's either impossible (looking at you 5e) or heavily punished (looking at you obscenely high level adjustments).
Epic level games are much more accommodating to this, because races that are unplayable normally for being too powerful can be justified, and races that are normally hard to play at all because of their level adjustments are less so. Gestalt helps even more with this since you can take up one side of the gestalt with racial levels and the other with class stuff.
If anyone is willing to run such a game let me know.

I too would love to participate as a player. Fingers crossed that a GM is found.

Awesome idea, I’ll keep an eye on this for if/when a GM volunteers to take this on.

In reply to Sally Aces (msg # 4):

I'd love to play too...I would GM...but I'm flake as a GM. You'll be glad I didn't, and we just said I tried...and it DIED! ;p

I'd love to play though! I'm darn flexible with character choices, and like teamwork. And epic is so niche for all kinds of exploration. ^_^

mature game
link to another game

i am guessing by [epic] you mean lvl 20, because in my game epic is lvl 6
...so lvl 20 ... yes i will run that

gestalt rules (home-brew restriction)
one side of the gestalt is ONLY racial HD and LA. meaning class levels exist on one side ONLY.

building resources: ANY hardcover publication published by wizards of the coast.

well, epic is level 21+, but starting at level 20 and going up from there is fine too
Do you create the game and add us? I'm new-ish to this site

jess_car_fix - are you going to switch your creation for the upside down world game to be a level 20 gestalt or are you keeping it E6?

In reply to Aleph Null (msg # 13):

3.5 Gestault Epic level games require suitably epic motivations and by epic I do mean EPIC. Any ideas on that front? Or just whatever a prospective DM would throw together?

 Other questions that occur to me
1)Campaign world? Book or custom?
2)Length of game?
3)other than monster races what expectations do you need?

I can be interested in this... but maybe we should arrange a cap on race levels? Most of the times, high level with race in one side of the gestalt transforms into a race to see who get the most templates that raise X stat.
