A couple of days ago I started thinking that crossing the boundaries and building up those audiences across the environment types could actually work very well. A slong as it's done properly. I've had an interesting private conversation with CL@Wizards (Chris is a nice guy!) and am now in the...

I think you are definitely better off off-DMsG... If you have the support to pull it off! My blog still gets around 350 hits per day, but it only has around 20 followers (inc email subscribers). It gets a bunch of refs but... I think it's highly unlikely that I'll hit 10 patrons in the first...

Yeah I emailed him a couple of hours ago. My first email to Chris, tho Greg and I used to correspond a bit :-) Peter Lee can be a good convo too, since we are both system math guys (tho admittedly he's a pro and I an amateur).

Try a Google images search for paper backgrounds with reuse license. If you are handy with GIMP or Photoshop you can broaden the scope a bit too.

Both quick preview and full-size preview are working perfectly for me using Windows 8.1 and Chrome 53.0.2785.116. As is everything else I can click/hover/whatever...

Oh for sure. But they are very good with giving advice on the intent, particularly in a private conversation.

Huh. How on earth did I completely fail to see wish? Switch Breath Weapon for Meteor Storm... Yeah CR26 looks right to me.

Thanks @M.T. Black .... I'm feeling more positive again this morning. I'm sure I'll get something working. My original thought was to have the content on multiple sites but naturally that isn't allowed. Which I completely understand. At the moment I'm thinking along the lines of simply...

Congrats! Always a buzz when you see the final shape up, right? Wish I could help with your issues :-(

Getting a more experienced player into the mix will help. Or one that's keen on the game and wants to actively research it. In any case you need to keep their info/clue feed going! Encourage them a few times to make knowledge checks. If they simply won't start to show them the repercussions...

Honestly, I do both in almost all games I run - however the proportion varies depending on the game. In my main heroic game I primarily tailor to the group, with some natural world content. The parameters of this campaign were establish a decade ago and the PCs were/are meant to be epic heroes...

Maybe I am in a unique position? I was toying with the idea of having a Patreon page and releasing all my content as free (or PWYW) on dmsguild. I was simply going to put all the donations into buying artwork. Because USD$50 - USD$100 for full colour artwork is expensive for a pure hobbyist...

Interesting. I evaluated it using it's enlarged form (because any decent DM will ensure it's enlarged if it's a feature fight). Shouldn't Hitpoints be 114? 12d10 + (Con Mod x 12) = (5.5 x 12) + (4 x 12) = 66 + 48 = 114 I think that, along with Cone Of Cold, will bump the enlarged form to CR9.

The new version looks like a fairly solid CR26 based on the DMG method. I suspect in actual play it might be more like a CR24 or CR25 tho.

Happy to put together an alternate CR8 Maimed Beholder if you like. Just post what you particularly want in it...

Yep! (Although for some reason I always say "Removed". I don't know why and that's probably just one of my own little idiosyncrasies. It includes some fear effects, being teleported away, being sent to another plane, paralysis, pertification, death and anything else that takes you out of the...

Working through it... Hitpoints should be 52 (=4.5 * 8 + 16) Using the DMG CR method suggests this is a CR5 creature. I would actually peg it at CR4 myself.

The truth is I got a bit burnt out by the end of the last lot and the DMG made it all seem redundant. Which I always expected to happen. I feel refreshed again now tho and I can't stop tinkering with DMG based numbers in spreadsheets anyway. Let's see... the blog has a dozen followers plus half...

Good work on the restore Morrus and team!

Apologies for the necro, but I did get a mention. Hello! I've been away from monster analysis for a while but I am considering coming back to it again now. If there's community interest. Do you think there is? What was clear to me in my pre-DMG analysis was that these all seem to be treated...
