thanks And - apologies if you've already stated this - where are we on the "old section, new section" portions of the adventure?

This sounds like a very good "in between" session. How much was your improv and how much was in the written adventure?

This is territory that's already been covered... Monster Menu-All Part 1: AD&D Monster Manual: PDF Version

Worse case scenario, the RK can redirect the attack to themselves, esp if the hill rune is going. Not ideal, but it can save a squishy ally.

I concur. You can hold on to your halberd or great sword etc with one hand for a moment to cast a spell with the other. "Hand economy" is an important, but somewhat obscured, part of the game. A lot of GMs don't care, but some do.

the RN has a number of method to shield allies from attack: the cloud rune the storm rune the runic shield One could argue that the control ability of the fire rune and stone rune can also help protect allies, but that's stretching the definition.

I think it depends what you mean by "best tank". The EK can be more durable, yes, 100%. But the RK is better at protecting the party.

I'm not sure I know how to answer that either. I should also note that the RK I played was, for a number of reasons, not "optimized" - he was a dex-build melee fighter, and RK works best with strength build (to take advantage of the size). However, the subclass is so strong it still worked...

I've seen all 3* in play, so I think I have a fair understanding of what each subclass can do. *I don't consider the echo knight because I haven't seen it in play but also because how poorly written the subclass is. It's a mess. I'm not sure I would agree that the RK is "the best". They have...

I must admit I'm... not as impressed as you are by the organization - I feel like it's missing a cover letter. It's just a bunch of stuff

any easy way of seeing this 90+ page document? There must be a few gems in there... (and thanks for the update!)

I encourage you to re-read the spell.

that's the fundamental challenge of high level play for a GM. Not that the fighter does 200 damage/round. Rather, the numerous in-game ways casters can avoid, solve or bypass in-game challenges with magic. And why wouldn't the high level PCs do this? If the adventure is dangerous and...

And why do the other PCs let an untrustworthy coward be in the party? "I'm sorry, this isn't working out. Here's your share of the party treasury. get out"

I used to be a bit of a "lore tyrant", but now I try to leave gaps, cracks for the PC's creation. Say that I have a vision for a setting (Yoon Suin) and a player really wants to be a certain race that doesn't "fit" in the Yoon Suin setting. Maybe this race is from a far away land? So the...

I hope that when it's all said and done, that some of the lawyers involved will share some details.

If I am not mistaken there is a portion of the forum specifically dedicated to "looking for games", perhaps post there? https://www.enworld.org/forums/gamers-seeking-gamers.49/

It took a while, but I'm delighted to see this issue resolved. @SGB , this is the best thread necro I have ever seen in my 25 years of internet foruming. I bid thee "Necromancer of Justice". May you bear this honor well.

This is the first time I hear of this cage of name concept and... why would you let yourself be trapped in that? If you want to play X that "isn't the stereotypical X"... then go ahead and do that. Who's enforcing this cage of name?!?!

... could it be that you have confused tieflings and cambions?
