    RPG Evolution: The Immortals

    One DM deifies the character (or in one case an expy of a retired player) as minor gods in his setting of long standing.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Wealth by level, int increases and appropriate skill points

    Weird that my copy and paste is a quote but oh well.

    D&D General Kobold Press Going Down a Dark Road

    If Paizo had put out “Printed 3.5 core books are going away so people will need to use a new version” back when they were putting out the Pathfinder 1e Core Rules in print and wotc was publishing 4th edition in print (though I think still selling digital versions of 3.5 books), would that not be...

    D&D 5E Let’s build a setting: World of Wrestling Acolytes!

    Now that the 5.1 srd is protected via cc, I was wondering what a minimalist setting would be like. Imagine a world with only the pantheons listed in the srd, one that is so dominated by religion that all PCs begin as acolytes. One where grappling is highly emphasized and made a point of pride...

    Weekend Nonsense: Favorite Bad RPG

    I nominate 7th Sea 1st edition. Not just that Roll and Keep is not my favourite way of doing things, but with the multiplication of skills and especially knacks, which are not part of the "keep", there is a systemic problem with the game. Sorcery is expensive and usually not worth it, as are...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Edition Experience - Did/Do you Play 3rd Edtion D&D? How Was/Is it?

    Currently in a long 3.5 campaign, running from 1st to 20th. Most stuff allowed (no BoED, no BoVD, no Bo9S), some house rules. But I got to play a Sapphire Heirarch, which was thematically cool (they are a pro-lawful alignment prestige class that use divine magic and magic of incarnum). It is...

    D&D 3E/3.5 What was the original intended function of the 3rd edition phb classes?

    Fair enough. I will edit my original question to focus more on the intended original function of the classes.

    Looking for a particular online dice roller

    Wait I found out it works for iPhones too! And I can at least differentiate between d6 with pips and d6 with numbers which is all I need. Thanks!

    D&D General Single class party?

    I think it would open up more possibilities (for a truly stealthy party that doesn't have to worry about Sir Clanks a Lot spoiling the stealth, for example). Also, some Tier imbalance issues might go away, as you won't have one character be tier 1 and one be tier 5, thus hopefully avoiding the...

    A question about time travel

    Although with MWI doesn't that mean that, if "timeline hopping" is possible at all, then there are an infinite series of worlds where (a) Particle_Man went to each of them (and an infinite number of worlds in which (an) Umbran (but not Particle_Man) went to each of them, and infinite number of...

    Looking for a particular online dice roller

    Alas, I have a Mac and iphone, and it apparently requires Windows.

    Looking for a particular online dice roller

    #1: I guess I am open to it being phone app or desktop #2: Nah, just my view is fine.

    Looking for a particular online dice roller

    I am interested in an online dice roller that gives you visual dice on the screen (not simply numbers). Further more, one of the dice must be a different colour than the others. Thus if I roll 3d6, two of the dice could be green, and one of them red. If I roll 4d6, three of the dice could be...

    D&D 5E Multiple Concentration

    Wizards at high levels are powerful enough for me. If you want them to break the rules you can make the appropriate house rule.

    Most frustrating quirk of 5E?

    There is no hard rule that you don’t have to either. If you like, transfer the quirk to the lack of a clear hard rule then. And it still, in light of that lack, would have been cleaner for vulnerability to count first.

    Most frustrating quirk of 5E?

    A minor quirk: someone that has both vulnerability and resistance to the same damage doesn’t have it cancel out completely because resistance comes first and the round down rule means that for odd hp damage you would still take one fewer hp of the damage. Would have been cleaner to have...

    D&D 5E Multiple Concentration

    Have not read the whole thread but isn’t extra concentration the sorcerer’s thing via twin spell? Seems like giving it to other casters treads on the sorcerer’s toes.
