    Pathfinder RPG vs Book of Experimental Might as 4E Alternative

    Whats why I sad "Adjust the CR up or down to give more fights in a day or make the fight tougher." If you want the party to have 4-6 such fights before rest, then drop them to CR 1/4ths or 1/6ths, or have CR 1s that have been reduced to 1/6th HP, or any other such thing to make it work. I...

    Pathfinder RPG vs Book of Experimental Might as 4E Alternative

    Ugh, why would you want that? I mean if the only difference between a fighter and a mage is 2 BAB, thats dull as anything. While 3.X Ed does have some imbalances, breaking the game back to slow progressions just ups the bore factor. I mean, the player who is a 20th level fighter looks at his...

    Pathfinder RPG vs Book of Experimental Might as 4E Alternative

    A creature of an even CR to the part is 20% of a party's resources. Thus 4 CR 1s is supposed to be an "even" challenge for 4 1st level adventurers. Adjust the CR up or down to give more fights in a day or make the fight tougher. Admittedly, this doesn't always work, but I'm 100% mystified as to...

    NEWS: OGL and SRD dates/info announced

    I'd say the 5k ante to get into the game is designed to curb the junk products that flew out of the starting gates when 3.0 hit. I've got some real stinkers sitting on my shelf that I bought in the first 6 months, some of which I've never even finished reading they were so bad. What I'm most...

    Did you look at Ghostwalk? What did you think?

    The main problem for me was the difference in abilities between a ghostly player and a living pc. I ran a first level adventuring group through two adventures, but things got wonky when 2 people died. Suddenly the could do some nifty stuff others couldn't do, and it caused problems. Ditch the...

    Did you look at Ghostwalk? What did you think?

    I loved the Ghostwalk setting, right up until the sections about what is "beyond" the doors under Manifest... the afterlife was boring and kind of annoying. If you ignore that, the setting is nifty, and the ghost being around was very evocative, even if the rules made it tough to have a part...

    Farewell, my Friend

    Guys and Gals, I just want to thank you all for helping craft one of my favorite publications. I will miss Dungeon and Dragon very much, and want to say thanks. Jon Hartmann

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    Let me just add my voice to the chorus of those that are pissed off about this. Dungeon and Dragon are institutions as icon as D&D itself. I've been waiting years to get subscriptions until I had a permanent place to live (moving every six months bites), and when it finally happens this summer...

    Where do you see the evolution of the D&D game heading?

    I think D&D going the way of the MMOG is fairly unlikely... however I think WotC will recognize that probably 50% of their target audiance has a laptop and would perfer to have 1 digital source for all there material then a collection of books that it would take a van to move around. Also...

    This is an absolutely awesome thread.

    How have you made ogres more interesting?

    Shadow Ogers I was kind of inspired by this thread, and started looking at Ogres a bit more, and picked a template mostly at random for them; Lunar Creature from Denizens of Advanu. Gives them some DR, some resists, a couple minor abilities, and turns them into an outsider. Most importantly, it...

    Spell that makes weapon damage nonlethal?

    There is a 1st level psionic power that does that in Complete Psionic. Zero

    Sell me on creating new d20 fantasy PDFs . . .

    Well, I can't sell you on it, cause I'd need to get sold on it too. I've been working on small stuff for a while, but haven't even gotten it published. I'm thinking currently I'm just gonna have to scale my ideas back to 'my game only' topics. Something that is important for you to remember, is...

    Hey guys, I'm here if we are still going on with things. Sorry, I saw YS's post and figured it was done :) And you can still steal my date for all I care :) Zero

    Monk - what do you like and dislike?

    Arranging these fighting schools like Cleric Domains would be an interesting idea... basically you pick one, gain a granted power, and then a power every X levels. It would allow new schools to be invented on the fly. Monte Cook did something like this ain AU with his Totem Warriors, each Totem...
