    Modern Campaign Resources?

    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...

    D20 future setting?

    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...

    How many dice do you put out?

    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 many dice do you put out?

    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.

    When Players don't respect the DM's rules - Help!

    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...

    How many dice do you put out?

    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.

    SRD Search

    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.

    Do You RPG More Than Once Per Week?

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

    Dice Questions?

    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*...

    Reducing CR?

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

    Reducing CR?

    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...

    Reducing CR?

    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...

    Reducing CR?

    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...

    Ptolus #1 - The Comic Book is now available (as a PDF too!)

    I picked this up on the way home from work today. Got the last copy at the local comic shop. :D I like the story so far, and the art work is really good too. The only down side was that 10 of the 32 pages were advertisements. Is that normal for comics these days? Putting the stats for Sheva's...

    Shackled City Adventure Path (Chars Selected)

    Thanks, but I'll go ahead and bow out at this point. I just started working a second job over the weekend and it has left me with less free time than I would like, but it is necessary right now. I'll keep an eye on the game and maybe there will be an opportunity to join in the future. Have fun!

    Shackled City Adventure Path (Chars Selected)

    Heh. I was going to submit the idea of a "Wizard Archaeologist/Explorer", someone who has a heavy interest in exploring deep, dark places and uncovering the ancient artifacts of centuries past. I assume that's too similar to a Prospect Wizard? Unless you'd allow them both, in which case perhaps...

    Shackled City Adventure Path Campaign (Thread Closed)
