I have always wondered why most FRPGs shy away from telling us anything about the religions in our game worlds; I mean religion is one of the most powerful forces in the time period our games are set up to 'faux' model, especially in D&D where we have a cleric class. There's not even any good...

Hi All! I am writing a Fantasy RPG that is a mix in 'feel' of Ars Magica, Dragon Warriors, Harn and maybe even a bit of Pendragon thrown in. Now we come to the mechanics! Those resemble nothing found in any of those games and I wanted to gather some opinions on them. See here for details...

Hi all! A new site has just launched that discusses world-building and game design in low magic games and settings; e.g. Dragon Warriors, but there's lots there to chew over for the d20 DM too. http://waysider.co.uk

Hi All, I have had a situation come up in a 3.5 game where the rules as written are not clear. A PC is using various reach weapons to trip and disarm at 10 ft (2 squares). My question is; if the foes he is attempting to trip/disarm don't have reach (i.e. don't threaten him) can they attempt...

The Ordo Draconis fanzine is now statting all adventures for both Dragon Warriors AND Pathfinder. We are calling for adventure and locality submissions from Pathfinder Fans. You don't need to know anything about Dragon Warriors to write for us, as we will do all the dual statting. The default...

The publication of a new and official Dragon Warriors supplement is not something that happens every day. Indeed the last time it occurred was back in the heady days of the late 1980s, when my haircut was even more unfashionable than it is now, if that is possible. Hence cracking open the...

WARNING: this review contains SPOILERS!! The Prince of Darkness is the latest supplement for the “Dragon Warriors” RPG, that was first released in the 1980s by Dave Morris and Oliver Johnson. Dragon Warriors is a mechanically “streamlined” fantasy RPG that is distinctive because of its...

I have just finished writing and making maps for a Dragon Warriors adventure entitled " A family plot". The adventure is based on a fairly detailed seed created by Damian May. I intend to submit the adventure to the Ordo Draconis fanzine, but would like some detailed critiques and/or playtests...

One of the major problems with any adventure is when someone dies, and it derails the campaign. It can also happen that people leave the group because of moving out of the area. At the extreme, you have the problem of a TPK, where everyone dies. ONe approach that some DMs use is to fudge alot...

Another thread got me thinking about the last year, where I have seriously played (D&D 3.5) for probably the first time in 20 years. The last time I actually played this seriously was during the games of Tunnels and Trolls that got me into the hobby in the first place c.a 1984 Before this...

Hi! I just downloaded the excellent DM Genie, after hearing its virtues extolled in another thread. The problem is this: the main programme doesn't appear to have many of the feats and spells in it, particularly from the spell compendium. Is there some central place where I can find user...

I am putting together a campaign, initially for 4E, to try the system out and to explore some ideas I have been obsessed with for many years, but which would have worked less well in 3.5E (but see later). For a map of the first part of this dungeon (unfinished) see YouShare - Free File...

I am creating a 4E campaign based around the idea of an "endless urban sprawl", created by Old Ones. I am going with the idea of a sentient city where the whole city is a vast, and self regulating magical construct, though the setting itself will have elements of low magic and simulation once...
