The Post Apocalyptic Forge is probably the best place for the 'crunchy things' you seek. In particular check out the 'Masters of the Earth' campaign under 'Featured RPGs' in the left-hand menu. In my recently started d20M PA PBP game I scraped the d20F mutations list in leiu of theirs. Not sure...

I have heard that some have placed the setting from Star Frontiers into one of the outer regions in the Star*Drive settings -- either the Far Reach or the Orion Frontier. Bascially mankind went in two different directions and lost contact with each other. Some where down the road they meet...

Ah yes, for when I play dual-wield characters I have a standard set of blue-speckled dice and an extra-large d20 that matches. The oversized d20 is for my primary weapon, and the regular for the offhand, so that I may roll both attacks and make it obviously which die is for which weapon. I wish...

How do you like those? I bought the clear quartz ones, but I can't stand them. They're nearly impossible for me to read.

Boot him out. He knew your rules ahead of time. See, I told you someone would say it. :lol: Someone had suggested allowing one non-core book per player, which I think is a great idea. Try talking to him and the rest of the group and see if that's agreeable to everyone -- if that's something...

Inspired by the Let's See a Pic thread, how many dice do you usually put out at the gaming table? I'm a 'one set' kind of guy myself though I bring plenty along for those that forget or are too cheap to buy their own. Of course, in the case of games like Shadowrun 'one set' can mean several dozen.

When and where (which network) is this game being played?

Slight thread jack -- but has anybody found a hypertext* d20 Modern SRD with the d20 Future stuff rolled in yet? *Like, real HTML, not the RTF crap that Wizards posted.

In real life? No. Through the magic of the Intarweb? Yes.

Hey Kevin, I was having a discussion with some folks last night about using one (or more) of those plastic "popper" domes from the game Trouble, and seeing if we could swap the dice for one or more polyhedral dice. Have you ever seen something like that? DM: Pop initiative! Player: *pop-pop*...

Especially, in this case, when 3/5 of the party are mages. Them first level Wizards are soooo fragile!

Ah, thanks! I had missed the Adding Hit Dice table the first time I looked through the SRD. That's very helpful. It's an Aberration, so a +1 CR increase is a 4 HD increase. I'll try reducing it from 7 to 3 HD, calculating the new BAB (HD x 3/4 = 2.25), and reducing the saves and skills. I may...

I figured I would only do one single attack each round, being a "less experienced" creature, and maybe reduce the damage to 1d8+2 or just 1d8. Being first level characters most of them could be taken out of commission with a single hit! Also three out of the five charcters are arcane casters...

There are rules for improving a monster by adding class levels or templates, but I haven't found anything about reducing a monster's challenge rating. I'm working with only the SRD right now as I don't have access to my books. For example, lets say we have a monster with the following relevant...
