    D&D 5E cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    It has been a very entertaining thread so far, but this is the topper! More! More!

    The Problem with 21st century D&D (and a solution! Sort of)

    This game has already been invented: Castles & Crusades.

    Annoying Player HORROR STORIES!!!!

    Well, we finally did break him of that habit. He then started to use a giant (1-gallon) plastic Big Gulp cup as a dice cup. He would put his single die inside, hold the cup with two hands and swirl it around for several seconds, then dump it out on the table from a height of 2 feet. He wasn't...

    Annoying Player HORROR STORIES!!!!

    We had a guy who would keep his dice in a dice bag that was inside another dice bag. He would keep all of them in the bag until it was his turn to roll. Then he would open the first bag..., then open the second bag..., then find the correct die..., then roll it, and then PUT IT BACK IN THE...

    Treasure Generator based on total value of treasure?

    There's "The Mother of All Treasure Tables" (Necromancer Games) which list a bunch of treasure parcels by gold piece value (no magical items, though). And this generator is pretty good: Treasure Generator | DM Tools: No Prep Time, No Problem!

    The Next Innovation in Gaming

    I'm thinking of something along the lines of Second Life--where you can actually (er, virtually) enter the world created by the GM, and interact there with other players, NPCs, and critters of course.

    Looking for a new system!!!

    I will put in another plug for Eldritch RPG. It has a great magic system, is skill-based, and very flexible and adaptable. The rulebook is a little disorganized, but don't let that put you off--it's a great game.

    So what happened to arcane and divine characters?

    Um, because they're fun to play? Because you have a character concept that fits that class? Because you want to play an "ordinary" character who is skilled at what he does, not a "super-hero" character with "Powers"?

    4E or 3.5 or something else - what's in your future?

    I voted "other". My Thursday group will probably switch to 4e, because it is run by the owner of my FLGS, and he needs to sell books... My Friday game will probably stay with 3.5e for the forseeable future. When I am running a game this summer, I will run Lejendary Adventure.

    New Microlite20 thread

    My take on the ranger and the druid Here is a suggestion for the ranger and druid classes. I modified the descriptions in the Expert Rules, because I didn't want to add a new skill. *Rangers* can use light or medium armor. They are +1 to hit and damage with ranged weapons and only incur a -1...

    New Microlite20 thread

    Maybe have +1 to all skills each level, plus add +1 to any skill if the level divides by three (i.e. level 3,6,9,etc.), and change the +1 to STR, DEX or MIND to if the level divides by four (i.e. level 4,8,12,etc.). This is more similar to the SRD progression.

    New Microlite20 thread

    Darrell- Pretty cool system. Probably too complicated for my taste, but I like the different types of magic used by clerics and magi. greywulf- I see your point about the skill levels. I like the idea of having a way for characters to be diffferent, and you are absolutely correct that...
