    MAZES Fantasy Roleplaying: An Interview With Chris O’Neill (9th Level Games)

    As long as it's something that fits the character's role, a 1 always succeeds. And like you said, depending on the Darkness level (which is largely under the player's control) a 4 may succeed as well. The same holds true for a Bones character trying to succeed on a Books roll. They need to hit...

    D&D General First D&D Character?

    Mine was a human MU. I don't think we gave the characters names; the character and the player were interchangeable. Didn't have much fun with that game, the DM didn't really explain any rules, but expected us to know them (hadn't even read the Player's Handbook yet). I didn't play with that...

    TSR Did TSR Sue Regularly?

    Yeah, when I heard about the lawsuit, my first thought was "why aren't they suing Palladium?" My group that played back then still talks about the very short campaign we had using DJ - Joss, 7th child of the 7th children, Ultra critical hits (not sure that's what they were called in the game...

    D&D General Gameplay Trailer for D&D Dark Alliance Video Game

    It's not just the new D&D crowd that isn't familiar with Dark Alliance. I never heard of it until people mentioned it in this thread.

    D&D 5E 3 Classic Settings Coming To 5E?

    I love Spelljammer and am lukewarm at best towards Planescape (well, other than the art, the artwork is among my favorite) and I think this is the best way how to handle it. Replace Wildspace with the Astral Plane and require the use of portal keys to enter other planes. It would be easy to...

    D&D Movie/TV Michelle Rodriguez, Justice Smith Join D&D Movie

    I think if these are missing, more people would wonder what the title is about then would wonder if there was a magic train in it.

    Thanks, couldn't remember Tika, maybe if she had her frying pan I would have :-)

    Official RPG for Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra announced

    I'm always interested to see how things are handled when there's power disparity between characters (benders and non-benders in this case).

    D&D Movie/TV D&D TV Show By John Wick Creator

    And it would be awesome if they did tie-ins and posted the characters stats periodically so the gaming wonks could follow their progress.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D TV Show By John Wick Creator

    With the movie also coming, I wonder if they're aiming for something like a shared multiverse, or would each be stand alone?

    D&D 1E How/How Often Did you award XP in 1E AD&D?

    Whenever the party was in a safe place. Could be we made it back to town, or a camp in the wilderness, but never in the middle of a dungeon.

    D&D General How Would You Describe Your D&D Group

    Unfortunately inactive right now. We had been playing on a VTT, but when everyone is a adult with children, it's hard to meet. We've been talking about instead of doing a campaign style game, running one (or two) shots. It would give more people a chance to DM and let us explore lots of systems.

    Level Up (A5E) Class redesign

    What if they were tied to different parts of character creation? For example your combat pillar abilities come from your class, social pillar from your background and exploration from something...I don't think species would work for this.

    Level Up (A5E) Class redesign

    I like the feat approach as well, but if subclasses are chosen at lvl1, what if when you multi-class you only get the base features of the class and never (or maybe delayed) access to subclasses?
