So where was this supposed book of secret FR lore dating back over 40 odd years when WotC published the 4th edition FR campaign setting? Oops! Did I actually hit the Submit Reply button here?? I'm sorry. :angel:

Yes, and the module reflects that by saying that unprotected characters receive 5d6 points of damage per round from the cold. That is however, while the characters are "in space", for once the characters are on the surface of the structure, there is no more mention of the cold, or any need to...

In the past, I've used the City of Brass as it appeared in The Al-Qadim supplement "ALQ4: Secrets of the Lamp". It has an awesome full size poster map. I've run a couple of adventures in the city using this product. But nothing recently however. I have thought about taking the best elements...

Yeah, this was almost the inverse of a Dyson Sphere, where the Sun was covered, with the inhabitants living outside of the structure in the relative darkness.

3d6 in order, then like Sacrosanct above, we quickly moved to 4d6 drop lowest (rolled in order).

Apparently, I hit a nerve by pointing out that jgsugden was doing just that, as that person has since blocked me. :erm:

That would be - WGR6: The City of Skulls

Just a minor nitpick... Unless your DM was playing it his own way (nothing wrong with that :D), no roll for psionics was necessary in Dark Sun as everyone is at the very least, a "Wild Talent": Also, DS did not use percentile dice for "exceptional" STR... Since the default range was 5 - 20...

It's awesome that you enjoy playing D&D like stories told in movies and novels. It is. :cool: But... [Begin Grognard Rant] But Do NOT... Do not call my (or other's) games, where there IS an immersive story, but bad, and yes, totally random things (like death from a trap) can happen to the...

The creator of the thief class (ala "Manual of Aurania") had been an active participant over on the Paizo forums as "DrDeth" (https://paizo.com/people/DrDeth). Unfortunately, he does not seem to be currently active there as his last post there is dated December 10th of 2018. :( Here is the...

This is pretty much how I run my games as well; having done so throughout all of the editions that I have run (i.e. BECMI - 3.5/PFRPG). I really dislike, bordering on hate the term "Character Build"... Just make a freaking character so we can play! So yeah, if you have plotted out your...

The 2nd Edition AD&D book "Of Ships and the Sea" devotes several chapters on undersea adventuring; yes, including casting spells underwater, complete with how the environment effects spell components. Yeah, it's 2nd edition, but it should be easy to make the conversions to 5th edition on the...

Father Matallica indeed! :erm:

No problem, glad I could help. :-)

Like you (I assume), I too do not like to just provide the AC of the PC's foes to my players. However, that said, neither the Combat Matrices nor THAC0 keep the player from determining the AC of any opponent they face. The way you do it, the player can easily determine the AC of their opponent...

THAC0 was first introduced to AD&D (1st Edition) as a usable game mechanic in 1983 with the module "UK3: The Sentinel" as an optional rule. It latter appeared as an "official" part of the 1st edition ruleset in 1986 with the publication of the "Dungeoneer's Survival Guide" hardbound. The term...

It was written for 3.0, but the Book "Testament" by Scott Bennie is all about roleplaying in the biblical era. It has the Levite Priest and The Psalmist core classes, and it has the Judge and Prophet as prestige classes. The book also covered other areas of the biblical world too, with...

Yeah, I would use INT as the relevant ability for Trivia. I just copy/pasted those two proficiencies as I they were... Personally, I don't think I would use Trivia as a proficiency, but I can see it being used by a player that wanted a certain type of character.
