    New Microlite20 thread

    WW, I got it and mailed you back a reply. Thanks! And I'd love to see a conversion of the Temple to 4E :) Just so you know, the server that hosts M20 is down AGAIN and I'm not a happy bunny about this. It's down far too often for my liking these days, so it's time to jump hosts. I'm going to...

    New Microlite20 thread

    Thanks! If you want to share your pocketmod, mail it to me - greywulf<at>gmail.com - and I'll happily host and link it in the Macropedia. I love to see folks' interpretations and additions to the rules. My own group will finally be getting back together after a 3 month hiatus next weekend, and...

    New Microlite20 thread

    What you've got looks good so far, Elephant. When it comes to magic items creation I use the same rules I use for full-size D&D: The Rule of Cool. All that working out gold piece cost and time-keeping just sucks the fun out of the game for me, so I discuss with the players what they want...

    Server died. It's at -10 hit points :( Hopefully, it'll be back soon though! Geek resurrection. I love it.

    Wow. I think you guys have got Star Wars M20 covered all by yourselves, so I'll just sit in the sidelines and clap my hands, ok? If you can turn it into a webpage, pdf or whatnot when you're done, I'll link (and host, if you like) it up at http://home.greywulf.net/m20 on the Macropedia. Talking...

    Pathfinder OGL/3.5 RPG system from Paizo

    Wow. That's great news! Count me in, Paizo. It looks like my Dungeonmaster's Creed is going to become reality. Me? Happy? Oh heck yes!

    You're heading in the right direction. Let's see....... An INT 16, 20th level cleric will have a Magic Attack of d20+23, meaning they'll need to roll a 19 or 20 to exceed the Undead Bugbear's 42 hit points. Ouch. that might sound like a bug (bear?), but it's not. I did that on purpose. Y'see...

    OoTS #536 - A Tribute to Gary

    Every panel is perfect. It's a brilliant homage, Rich.

    Gary Gygax has passed. RIP beloved father of RPG's. (merged)

    Rest in Peace, Mr Gygax. Your legacy lives on in all of us. A sad day, indeed.

    New Microlite20 thread

    Darrell - I like! On a tangent, I've been thinking about using Rolemaster's sources of magic ideas in D&D and M20 for a while. The idea of magic originating from three different sources appeals to me. There's Essence (drawing magic from all around), Channelling (drawing it from the Gods) and...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    This thread is dead. This thread is no more. This thread has passed the mortal coil and joined the great Monty Python sketch in the sky. Thanks to dunbruha, we've got a shiny new reborn Microlite20 thread, right here. See you there!

    The short answer is "probably". The longer answer is "it depends on your style of play". Hmmm.... that's not much longer. I'll ellaborate. The +3 at 1st level gives quite a boost to your chosen skill area to start with. Remember that Skills in M20 cover a whole lot of ground; there's only the...

    I wonder about Gleemax...

    Gleemax? Nope, sorry, don't do there, won't go there. Terrible name, awful layout, poor colour scheme, typical WoTC horrendous load times, zero plus points all round. Greatness has to be earned; gleemax claimed to be great when it, frankly, isn't. ENWorld is great because it's respected...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Sorry for the delay in replying, dunbruha :) In our games we've used the Magical Attack bonus for a number of things, including setting the save DC for spells in place of the usual Spell-level based Save DC; that way, the difficulty to resist the spell is based on the level of the character...

    Help me pick out a setting book to purchase

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned Ptolus yet. The whole thing is $60 from drive thru, and as funds are limited it might be worth getting the free Players Guide to see if the style suits, then get the individual bits and pieces as requires. I think that ticks all the boxes you've listed...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    lumin, welcome to the party :) It's always a pleasure to meet a new micro-recruit. As regards ACP, in our games we just ignore them under the principle of "Penalties Aren't Fun.", and the game certainly hasn't lost anything in their disappearance. That said, if a Fighter in Full Plate wants to...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Y'know, I'd love to see character stats for those......... :D Excellent stuff. And I've still not updated the Macropedia, I know. Blame Daz Studio. It's his fault.

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I'm loving all of this. It's always great to hear how folks are using (and abusing :) ) M20. Grand stuff. When I get the chance I'll add your house rules to the Macropedia. Right now I'm in the middle of creating Chariots & Champions, a fantasy Car Wars mini-game for Save Or Die, my gamerzine...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Hi! M20 works //very// well for DCCs. I've run through a fair few without change. Onto the questions...... Just run them as-is and keep a count of the ELs. When it's time to level-up, let the players know and move on. I've not had to change the CR/ELs at all; they work just fine though YMMV...
