One thing that I have pondered to help reel stuff in, at least in term of large amounts of hit points, is the old D&D rule of hit dice only up to level 10 and then +1 (or CON modifier for my game) per level afterwards. Thoughts?

One thing driving me nuts a out the stat blocks with the Death Knight and Black Guard entries is the complete lack of non-spell smites. These guys are the baddest of the bad, the twisted souls that have traded a life of service to life and beauty to serve new dark cosmic powers. If the "good...

Well, if you set up your adventures with encounters with 100+ ft of open terrain and you have a grip of crossbow and archery gawds then...yeah. Of course they will treat your encounters like $2 whores. Sent from my XT1254 using EN World mobile app

Use cover. PCs can only shoot on their turns so make sure "bad guys" can hop from cover to cover. Getting close in most dungeons is easy with good tactics. Sent from my XT1254 using EN World mobile app

Yeah, I figured as much on the winging it. I will be mixing things up with interspersed "regular" encounters. Sent from my XT1254 using EN World mobile app

I'm going to be running a full-custom campaign here shortly and I'm looking for advice on how to handle the critters I'll be using in terms of Challenge for XP and encounter difficulty. The world is a cross-up of GURPS Barnstorm and Princess Mononoke where demons and devils possess and defile...

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Mackintosh on a few occasions back in 2000. He was passionate about gaming, always had a smile on his face, had great ideas that made equally great games, and put up with my innate orneriness like a saint. I did not know him well at all, but I recognize that...

Reality. They are from reality, except in areas like where I currently live where whites are the distinct minority. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

My oldest dice set is about 28 years old. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

Word up. It even goes so far as to describe it as a magic weapon in terms of damage resistances...

$100,000 will open up one hell of a shop, bro. I owned a shop for three years, started with under $10,000 dollars, and shut it down 100% in the black.

Better said than I have apparently managed so far, sir!

I would counter this by simply pointing out that the responses by the players was the most telling. Anything that causes feelings similar to those apparent to the OP between the players, or the players and DM/GM, are something to be thought hard about. The game is there to be fun with your...

Votes in. :)

So we're still talking about this one? Seems to me that we have a pretty typical rift between "WTH?!?" and "Player should have kept his head on a swivel" with varying levels of "Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda...Didn't" in the mix. Guys... 1) it's not even our game. 2)the horse in a sickening mass of...

*Tries really hard* Absolutely nothing, at least in terms of the game engine. Some great settings, though.

I have been consistently impressed with what I have read from the folks in the Top 20, that is for sure.

Beer and snacks? Hookers and blow will get you five levels, easy!

Having just picked up Dungeon World, I find the flat "Coins" money system is pretty nice. Less muss rolling up different coin types, no need to convert anything, and I can honestly say that loot management (at least in tracking the coinage) has been far from orgasm-inducing over the last 30 or...
