    True20 Form Fillable Sheet

    I have just uploaded True20 Form Fillable Sheet to the downloads area. A sheet made in openoffice due to lack of form-fillable sheets on the internet. Contains more than enough info and space to make a character. You can find the file here in the downloads section. Please use this thread for...

    [Orlando, FL] Looking for a social group

    It's been a while since I've posted on EN World, and it's likely due to my lack of involvement in RPGs for a while. I'm a D&D player of five years, with a bit of familiarity in a bunch of different systems over the years. The systems that I'm most comfortable with are 3.5 and its derivatives...

    Combat?

    Something that has bothered me that I'm not sure how to handle if I ran a PbP game: How does everyone do combat? Specifically, 3e and PF, but this also applies to other games that generally rely on tactical positioning. It seems like it would take a long time for any combat to resolve if not...

    [Asheville, North Carolina] Looking for IRL or Online group

    Male, 20, I love to roleplay and I love to crush monsters. I like both rules-light systems as well as heavy crunch, and I'm willing to try out new systems. I've played D&D 3e and 4e, Pathfinder, Castles and Crusades, Dark Heresy, and Exalted. I've got familiarity with various FUDGE games...

    D&D 4E Convince me that 4e is worth my time

    You know, it's a sad thing when I really haven't played many RPGs, and yet I like them so much. I blame D&D for this, since the shiny covers of the original three books graced the shelves of a now-defunct gaming shop. It was a wondrous thing looking at all of the races and classes and powers...

    BAB vs AC?

    You know, BAB seems to scale with level while AC doesn't. I wonder why that is. Looking at monster stats vs PC progression, it seems that BAB completely beats out AC after a couple of levels, making wearing armor an almost moot point. Is this actually true through people's games? Our games...

    AD&D ToEE Maps?

    Hey there. Various PDFs I've picked up from various sources have broken maps as far as the fourth level and the elemental nodes are concerned regarding The Temple of Elemental Evil. Is there any way I can get JUST the maps, if possible?

    D&D 2E [2e] Weapon Damage

    I'm highly confused with this weapon damage chart in the PHB. Some weapons deal less damage when Larger than Medium or Small, and some weapons do absurd, illogical damage (A broadsword deals 2d4 damage, just like a two-handed bastard sword? And a khopesh does as much as both of them?) Is it...

    How Do You Run Sorcerer?

    A class that has always intrigued me was the sorcerer, ever since I read about it in the manual for Neverwinter Nights. More spells than the Wizard? No preparation of spells in advance? The only cost being a lack of free feats and having less spell choices overall? Unique enough to be one of...

    Suffocation as a tactic

    Interesting question to players and DMs: Have you or were you allowed to ever do anything involving suffocating the opponents, such as through spell effects or through something more simple such as strangulation? The main reason I ask is that I'm going to be running an assassin character in a...

    Advancing Animals and Cohorts

    Okay, so you've got a player with a mount/pet/companion/cohort. How would you advance these NPCs? For instance, the Wolf has 2 Hit Die and gains Hit Die up to 3 for Medium, and then advances up to 6 as Large. Would you make it gain a hit die per year? Per level of its owning PC? Never?

    Dragon Breath

    I dunno if this is in the correct forum, but I digress. I've always liked the concept behind the old Gygaxian dragons- Big, vicious beasts with a 3/day breath weapon dealing as much damage as they have in hit dice. In 3.5, I'd like to have this same frightening breath weapon. From what I've...

    UMD; Scroll and Wand DCs

    Wizard, Sorcerer, Rogue with UMD, whichever, I wish to know how to calculate the save DCs on spells cast by scrolls and wands. DMG states these rules about a scroll: "The spell must be of the correct type (arcane or divine). Arcane spellcasters (wizards, sorcerers, and bards) can only use...

    Utilities of Craft (Trapmaking)

    So I've been thinking about having a Sorcerer/Rogue (possibly Kobold) that would be using spells to augment trapmaking. Would it be possibly to potentially create things like spell grenades and trapped arrows launched from bows with the trapmaking system (infusing them with such dirty spells as...
