    Player Wanted Tallahassee, FL (Savage Worlds)

    We are looking for a player to join our tabletop RPG group. We play on Saturday evenings from 6pm to 11ish at my home in the Myers Park/Cascades Park area of Tallahassee, Florida. Our current campaign is a fantasy one using Savage Worlds. We are not really big fans of scripted campaigns, rules...

    D&D 5E If you use Group Initiative (like my group does), why do you use it?

    Pretty much those reasons plus I (as DM) don't have to track it. We started with the standard initiative and switched a few months ago. My group, as they'll readily admit, are not very tactical but they have been noticeable more so since we switched. Combats seem like they are speedier and feel...

    Pathfinder 1E FL - Tallahassee Pathfinder RPG or Savage Worlds Looking for Players

    I'm looking for one or two players (age 21+ and non-smoking preferred) to join an ongoing group in Tallahassee, Florida.

    Player Wanted for 4e Game in Tallahassee, FL

    I'm looking for one player (age 21+) to join an ongoing 4e game in Tallahassee (currently 5th level). We typically play Friday evenings (7pm to Midnight). I anticipate that this game will last at least through the summer. It is kind of a test campaign to see if I (and the group) feel that 4e...

    House Rule: Second Effort

    I've just introduced a house rule somewhat along these lines. When using their Second Wind the PC either gains the normal +2 bonus to defenses or gains a +2 bonus to their next attack (must be prior to the end of their next turn). Like I said, I just introduced it and we don't play again for a...

    fixing Healing Outside Combat

    I'm intrigued by this idea but I'm curious how you would suggest handling parties with multiple healer types (e.g., a Cleric and a Warlord). Let each and every healer add their bonus to the surges? Rule they don't stack? Perhaps some sort of "aid another" type bonus for each additional leader...

    dual wielding

    There are also a number of Ranger Exploits that require the character to be wielding two weapons (or possibly a ranged weapon) like Twin Strike, Dire Wolverine Strike, and Two-Fanged Strike. Some of them also specify two attacks, one with the main weapon and one with the off-hand weapon if...

    Killed by your own party member!

    Thunderwave did it in my 4e game. The party was fighting some pixie swarms and individual pixie types (basically reskinned Needlefang Swarm, Kobold Slyblade, and Kobold Minions) and the Paladin went down and out. The swarms advanced upon the Wizard who wanted to use Thunderwave to push them...

    Pathfinder 1E Tell me about the Pathfinder setting

    Here is a link to a review of the Pathfinder Chronicles Gazetteer that might answer a number of your questions and largely echoes NiTessine's comments: http://grognardia.blogspot.com/2008/07/review-pathfinder-chronicles-gazetteer.html. Pretty much all of the information in the Gazetteer is...

    New Information from the UK

    The full page picture with The Gazetteer 22 across the top, has a little orange box in the bottom corner that has what looks like the publication info. WotC Europe is listed at the top of that box and is listed under Distribution and a couple of other places. Not sure if that really means...
