If someone joins my game it will be after 1) that individual and I have had a conversation about D&D, our preferences, and what we each want from the game; and 2) that individual has sat through a session as an observer. I have five players. I won't bring in another player unless they are fully...

Being a Minnesotan, Maxperson's realism seems right to me. Here, all the women are strong, the men are good looking, and all our children are above average!

Indeed. I've noticed something similar with my players. What I've observed is that their confidence changes as they transition from characters with low stats to characters with high stats. When they play low stat characters, they tend to be much more cautious and conservative, advancing slowly...

Whether or not rolling results in an array higher than the standard array depends on the generation system you use as well. In my case, I use 4d6 drop the lowest, arrange to taste, if your highest stat is 13 or less or the total ability modifier is +0 or less, then you are entitled to re-roll...

Yep. You can raise your prime ability score, but you cannot lower Dex, Con, or Cha at all, and Str, Int, or Wis cannot be reduced below 9.

Yes and no. The campaign is set in the World of Greyhawk, specifically in the areas surrounding the Empire of Iuz. The party has a base of operations in a small keep overlooking the Ritensa River. From this base the players usually send out two-to-three adventuring parties on various missions...

I am! The big question is how much focus do you and your players want the port to be? That's the operative question. I've done simple roll a d20+Mod against a DC, and I've done complex where the players have been active participants making multiple decisions. The system I used that I liked...

There's a difference between the general and the specific. The OP was asking a question specific to his players. Likewise, my reply to the OP was specific to what I do. Boilerplate, by definition, is general. Oofta used C.H.E.A.T. in his boilerplate reply. In fairness to Oofta, in his reply to...

It's true, there are a near limitless number of variations used by those of us who roll stats. There is no simple acronym that will account for every permutation. However, the term C.H.E.A.T. has a very obvious negative connotation. And in the seven years I've been on these boards, I cannot...

What bugs me is that sooner or later "point buy" or "array" posters start referring to "roll for stats" posters as cheaters. Oh wait, that happened on page 1. :hmm: Try not using condescending phrases like "Creative Hero Enhanced Attribute Templates (C.H.E.A.T.)" system and maybe people will...

No, I don't. The older I get, the less inclined I am to tell people what they should do. Instead, I'll just tell you what I do. You are free to use or not use anything I write. Feel free to ask questions if you want clarification. First, each character is rolled using 4d6 drop the lowest...
