Like.
I use the encumbrance rules also. It's easy to do on a VTT, where the weights are calculated by the software. But even on a tabletop... -
JJefe Bergenstein replied to the thread D&D General Liquids in Bag of Holding or Portable Hole?.It doesn't say they're protected or padded, so I'd rule they spill. The bag is basically a huge trash bag bigger on the inside than...

JJefe Bergenstein replied to the thread D&D General The joys of playing a PC with low stats.Fort Reflex and Will all the way. The secondary saves as is aren't remotely balanced. I think there's like 5 Int saves in the entire...

JJefe Bergenstein replied to the thread D&D General The joys of playing a PC with low stats.Except it doesn't really. How do you determine what a 6 vs 9 Int vs 10 character could solve? That's sort of like saying "use your...
