Re: Re: Re: Bah, kill them in their sleep My suggestion: help the other 3 players build their next set of crunchy, power-maxed, kill-maxed characters. Then, metagame to make sure that kill XPs are evenly split. (Bob killed the last monster, and I'm ahead in XP too, so Bob will grapple, while...

Another favorite Castle of the Blind Sun is another favorite of mine. Written "backwards", from the art to the plotline, it still came out as an exceptionally fun adventure, and a great way to showcase the party bard. . . . . . . . -- Eric

I don't have my books here to go searching for adventures, but I've liked most of those they publiched. The first adventure book, Marked For Death, has run really well for me. There's also an adventure in the main book, of course. Four bastards was OK, but nothing to write home about. The...

Tsk. Laaazy! ;) OK, I'll go back and add the issue numbers, which I shall now look up in the index provided at the top of the thread. :D :D . . . . . . . -- Eric

I know a handful of gaming groups & players in the area that are looking for fellow gamers, so if you're interested, speak up. D20 Oriental Adventures (Rokugan, sorta) -- This is my game, weekly, Sat 10am - 2:30pm+, 4 players, 6th level, politics & intrigue oriented. Central Houston, near...

I'm not at home, so I can't answer Psion's questions, but I'll mention a few of my favorites (in addition to those already mentioned): + Mud Sorcerer's Tomb (#37) -- A standard dungeon crawl, for some reason this always inspires me. I've run this in D&D, Earthdawn, and Ars Magica (always...

I liked Greatwyrm's idea, but wanted to offer an alternative to the quoted section. Leave the PCs charmed, but while the enemy wizard is in the middle of explaining to the non-charmed PCs, a rival wizard attacks! Explosions (fireballs) rock the fortress, and the wizard is forced to go deal...

I’m looking for advice for my ongoing L5R D20 campaign, and would appreciate any comments you folks would be willing to offer. I’m going to ask a couple questions; feel free to answer any or all that you’re inspired by. :) Background: non-Rokugan classes are rare in the setting. The PCs are...

Well, yeah, but I always just assumed you were in the process of having that, you know, "fixed". ;) . . . . . . . -- Eric

Of course, if they played L5R 1e and 2e, they ought to be used to awkward transitions by now... ;) :D . . . . . . . -- Eric EDIT: blasted spelling & vbulletin settings.

Alternative Another possibility: the future PCs don't come back, they can only send messages back. Also, to prevent paradox, they aren't allowed to say that they are in the future. Unfortunately, memory being unreliable, they send back several messages, but the messages "miss" the PCs by a...

True, although my recollection is that you started losing this in the classic version as well (unkept raise dice, Crab clan, etc.). Yep, thet's what I meant. Thanks. For those without the book: Importune Kami is a set of spells that can substitute for any other spell of the same level by...

No disagreement, actually. (I did say I like the nemanuri idea.) My main problem was with the power level of the spells; bear in mind that not everyone agrees with me about my opinions of power level in general -- I don't think Psion / Alan has ever agreed with me. :) In particular, I thought...

I'm currently running a D20 Rokugan game; I agree with Paka that I much prefer the older timeline, but I have had little difficulty adjusting it for use with D20. I use the "Way of the ..." books for NPCs and player inspiration, and the campaign is heavily-inspired byt the City of Lies boxed...

Am I missing something, or do they not ask for any geographical info? Are they assuming that geeks are only interested in net relationships, or what? :) . . . . . . . -- Eric

I won't weigh in on main debate, but thought I'd point this out: click on the "Flat View" if you want to swap from threading to all posts at a glance. . . . . . . . -- Eric
