Thanks for pointing that out about backgrounds pukunui - after reading too many rulebooks I often tend to jump over explanations and missed that :) I noticed DMG's plot points, but they are completely different thing :) SW's Plot points are bunch of generally 1-3 -page adventures, mostly...

Hello, I'm another returnee to D&D :) I got really sick of 4E/D20 at end of my Ptolus 4E campaign, I was tired of it already when 4 heroes eliminated a 11 levels higher solo (was supposed to be a situation to be handled with negotiation) with few resources, some of the characters left at full...

IIRC the first comment from Monte about 4E mechanics being revealed at the WotC site was 'Yuck'... At least the one I saw. Monte might have a lot of ideas how to improve the game, and I wouldn't wonder if Monte would really be hired to develop 5E. If he can make the system as he likes and due to...

I don't know if there's an ultimate system. I'm quite excited about Savage worlds after getting over my prejudices about the dice system, but I can't tell if it still feels good after 5, 10 or 15 years. If it does, I can say it's my ultimate system :) What I learned about SW is that opening...

Thanks, but I don't think any browser saves linked pages, or am I wrong? The main html page has just the links to the actual stat pages. I know some offline caching-program could do it.

Nope, but thanks anyway - I actually found the zip file, got the author's name and found it. If you want to use it, here it is: Book of NPCs Didn't see download at a glance though.

Absolutely. It was available as a downloadable zip(?), separate html files organized in folders by race (I think).

Hello, I remember seeing here a huge 4E npc collection once, having race/class combinations on different levels. Can anyone here help me to find them? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your replies! What I like most in knight is how it is more logical, even if it isn't as effective in all situations. In a fight with lots of minions, new defenders seem very effective.

Hello, I've just started to get familiar with new Essential classes. I'll have to say I love the new Hunter! From what I've seen, at least some of the classes seem very interesting. Are they more versatile & interesting to play, or is this just freshness of new material? I've seen some comments...

4E, although I've started to GM Savage Worlds and I'm trying to get players to favor the system too. 4E (Ptolus when I'm GM'ing) isn't likely to end very soon.

The basics of the rules, character development etc were same, but I don't think that the mechanics accurately followed either revisions. I think that the power system was completely game's own, IIRC there were some other differences too. And wasn't there one chooseable improvement per level...

not books or room, just terrains Good stuff brewdus, a great-looking collection! Nice amount of large beasts, something I feel to lack more or less. It's always fun to see translations of familiar game books, thanks for sharing those kitsune! I've got plans of taking photos of my...

Sounds like the gm is very railroad-oriented - but even with railroaded adventures, a skill roll that legendary should have let you track perfectly while running/riding, perhaps giving you 'scent' of the covering magic itself. Or something similar. Or, maybe he really was just favouring his...

Mort, I don't know if anyone's mentioned this before, I didn't have time to read whole thread and it seemed to derail a lot - to me it looks like GM described what he'd like the game to be, and then all the munchkin players decided they want to be one of those rare magic users in the world, and...
