    How to avoid ridiculous player character builds

    Here's what I'm doing in my campaign and so far it's kept player character power levels about balanced: Restrict players to the Player Handbook, Rules Compendium and Miniatures Handbook ONLY. This applies to classes, feats, skills, spells (basically everything). Disallow all forms of...

    The 5 foot grid

    In order to increase the tactical options in battles I am considering changing the scale from a foot square square grid tile to a 2 and a half foot square grid tile.

    CR Modifiers for permanent status effects

    If I wanted to make a monster permanently blind, I might guess that it would halve its CR rating, or take 2 off it. I'd then try this out and play around with the modifier in game sessions until I got it feeling about right. However there must be a faster way and so I'm wondering is there an...

    How much stuff can a person carry - inventory

    I was reviewing the character sheets in my pen and paper roleplaying game that my group use this morning when I realised that each hero was carrying an arsenal of weapons. None of us like tracking weights for items, its just too fiddly to mess about like this, so I was thinking of making an...
