    Adventure ideas for campaign based in the Antarctic

    I'm planning to start a d20 Modern campaign based in the Antarctic. It'll also contain elements from d20 CoC and possibly d20 WoD and will be loosely based on the film The Thing. i.e. a small research crew working in the Antarctic that stumbles across all kinds of nastiness and has to deal with...

    Forked Thread: Should players know the rules?

    Forked from: Should players know the rules? This got me thinking about how I prefer to DM/play/introduce new players and perhaps minor issues with 3.5E as I pretty much agree with Umbran. With my gaming group we have tended to emphasise the "role"playing aspect while playing a bit fast and...

    Enhancing Castles & Crusades with 3.5E feats

    Hi Treebore - looks simple enough to implement - thanks for posting :) I'd still be interested in seeing any other views of a more direct use of 3.xE feats . . .

    Enhancing Castles & Crusades with 3.5E feats

    Hi Treebore! Thank you for your reply - I haven't seen your house rules; please could you provide a link? At face value I can't see how the SEIGE engine can replicate feats but I'm willing to be enlightened :)

    Enhancing Castles & Crusades with 3.5E feats

    I've been daydreaming about starting up a new campaign after bringing our current one to a close based on C&C. I've been musing about something simpler but possibly not quite as simple as C&C (although it's close). I was just wondering what experience people have had of using the basic rules...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Campaign Setting

    Hi! I'm gearing up for the published Pathfinder rules next year and wondered what the current information on the Pathfinder setting is? I'd like to draw a distinction, if possible, between the material to support specific adventures and more general information on the setting. I guess what I'm...

    Armour rules from Unearthed Arcana

    Sounds reasonable to me :) I'm not familiar with True20? I'll ask a friend who has a copy to see if I can take a look ;)

    Armour rules from Unearthed Arcana

    Thanks for all of the replies! I think the rationale for a Class Defence Bonus is strong based on the benefit of having viable non-armour wearing characters (as commented on by benjamin) and the whole scaling of BAB at higher levels where the d20 roll to hit can become a little redundant...

    Armour rules from Unearthed Arcana

    Hi! I'm quite attracted to the idea of using the Class Defence Bonus from Unearthed Arcana as well as using the armour as damage reduction. However, I just wondered if anyone had any experience of using them in play as the Class Defence Bonus seem a little high at 1st level (e.g. for clerics...

    d20 Midnight spellcasting system in play

    I've recently been reading through the Midnight settings (and several of the other supplements) and I am really quite taken with the setting and will be discussing using it with my players. My only real discomfort is with the spellcasting system (I may just be too indoctrinated in the standard...

    Goodman Games sale buying from the UK

    Hi! I've been thinking of taking advantage of the Goodman Games sale (see http://www.goodman-games.com/). However, as I live in the UK p&P becomes a serious consideration. The "sweet spot" would appear to be making a purchase of less than $100 which would cost $20P&P. Principally I'm...

    Elric and Hawkmoon RPG from Mongoose? Is it good?

    I think Mongoose has done a wonderful job with Elric and Hawkmoon. Very faithful with the original material. Mongoose RuneQuest also has a very similar feel to the d20 system so if you're familar with D&D 3.x you should find the rule system very intuitive.

    Melnibonean-inspired race as LA+0

    Running Summary OK, here's where I think we are: -2 Strength, +2 Charisma - their reliance on their natural ability with magic has left them less physically strong than a typical human Medium size - they are pale, with an average height of around 7' and unnaturally slender by human standards...
