Humm, maybe the Ranger could be a prestige class for the fighter and rogue?:) Though, just out of nastalgicness, I plan on keeping the Ranger just as it is in 3rd Ed (some those 4th Ed :D rules...ack!!). To each our own, house rules are what make the game better "some times":rolleyes...

Kind words of feed back please... :eek: be they constructive or destructive. Thanks :D Armour Point System General / Introduction The Armour Point System (APS), has been developed to maintain a record of damage done to a player character’s armour. In the course of an adventurer’s...

Hi Arc, your right, but I figure as a DM you can always adjust according for a "home game" and not feel too guilty for throwing 10 or more goblins at a pc party of 5 or so (flashes of the Mines of Moria from LotR's FotR :D ), with out worrying on making it a pc killing spree, plus you can use a...

Hey all, some constructive criticism on this please, feel free to adapt it for your games. Mainly it's a players way to stay in action a little longer... during his begining moments It's not very original, I know, but it may be a good consideration for 5th Ed D&D next year (dripping sarcasium...

:)Happy Birthday Gary Gygax!:) Thank you for sharing your dreams and your imagination. Many wishes of good fortune to you. Take care:D

Wow! ...and to think that my wife and I were going to try and save enough money to attend sometime over the next 2-3 years, ...if GenCon is still around. Actually, we most likely will, but we will pre-register as foreseen here, bring folding stools and lots of water, hopefully the washroom...

I'm not asking that WotC provide detailed books for areas like FR did, but give a little more so GM's can develop more personal attentions for their campaigns. Idea's I had was a series of maps detailing first the the land of Oerth into large maps. Someone mentioned Canonfire where someone in...

satori01... 1st Ed Unearthed Arcana was neither in my opinion. It was an expansion/addition of articles/material mainly from "The Dragon" magazine (ah, and a fine magazine it was back then) with a bunch of other goodies. To add to the 1st Ed game. Aside from that, when it came to 1st Ed rule...

Daedrova... I would love to sit and scribe out the consistancies and comparisons for you between 1st Ed to 2nd Ed and 3rd Ed to 3.5 Ed, but I haven't the time nor the inclination right now (its 3:30 am!). May I suggest you piece meal this thread and make a conclusion you are satisfied with. If...

hey, RoleMaster was cool! The thought that you were getting upset never crossed my mind :rolleyes: Over your head, I understand. Are you a halfing purchance? Because I thought the rant was relatively straight forward. To each there own. I never meant to offend your sensabilities. :D

Hey all, another thread of debate and/or opinion... The World of Greyhawk. I almost feel like I grew up there, for my 12th B-day after almost a full six months of being a fledgling gamer, many many moons ago, my dad gave me some B-day cash and I peddled my butt down to the local hobby store...

Tu-shae Daedrova. See, you explained yourself and defend your opinion well. I would like to add that the old THAC0 and combat system didn't change much from 1st to 2nd, niether did the classes or races change much either, the principle of the game has held all the way into this 4th Ed..ehm, my...

Hi Numion, if 2nd Ed sucked so bad for you and you had such a lousy time at it, why did you ever bother to continue playing it, especially on the premise that you didn't know about a 3rd Ed coming out. Go play GURPS then. BUT, most importantly, please re-read... "There is NO, I repeat! No...

Don't forget the Manual of the Planes, Dieties & Demi-Gods, Fiend Folio... I'm sure they'll be at the very least, looking at a re-release of these books corrected. Just like they did with the 1st Ed Dieties when they messed with the gods. Who knows, I more than likely buy those also, like the...
