and here I was considering whether to stop my RHoD-campaign prematurely. With this info I think I will have enough steam to keep it up 'till the end :cool:

Thanks! I will take a look at them and probably make full write-ups to hand out. You mention that the Warlord's powers are weird - any suggestions as to what would be better?

How badly are they made? And has anyone "published" improved versions? I have read that they have many errors as well, but can't find a list of the errors which would be very helpful, especially with corrections. Has this been published and if so, where?

Overall, I think this look like a very nice sheet, I like the layout. There is of course still a lot of work to do and I would like to join. I have done some calculating sheets previously (I think my Earthdawn sheet had everything covered; it was a much smaller game than 4e will quickly become)...

Actually, I just thought of a similar but even simpler mechanic that will also solve "players know he's a minion vs. know he's not a minion" line: Even attack rolls kill, odd ones do not. If the players catch on, you switch. Or don't. Or switch next round. Or switch for each attack. Or switch...

Death save Disclamer: I haven't read the whole thread (more like 10 first+last posts) so thin mayalready have been suggested. I am not sure I like the "always goes down when hit" thing so I have considered giving minions a "death save" to avoid dying when damaged. On average, that will let...

That means it doubles every 4 levels which is very neat, I hope it will (somehow) be the case for higher levels as well. Do we know anything about the number of xp required to level?

Not so baloney Ok, you say you think the lycantrope levels may be worth it. Given that, are the 2 wolf levels really so terrible for a barbarian? While in hybrid form (in which the character can fight with his usual weapon) they give: 1. 2d8 HD, +1 BAB, Good Fort and Reflex saves, 2x(2+int)...

Did anyone actually use favored clases anyway? IMC there has always been a good reason to multiclass - so why penalize? IMO it was one of the most stupid restrictions (along with monk and paladin multiclassing) - good riddance! In 2e, did anyone ever observe the level limits ("Yes you get xp but...

new - If you want more feats, you can take the Holy Warrior class option from Complete Champion which lets you trade in spellcasting for feats at levels 4, 8, 11, 14. This lets you dump Wis and invest more in other stats instead. new - If your Cha is high and Wis is low, Indomitable Will...

I think you're right about what rules are official. I may just have realized something: Armor spikes work as a weapon ("You can have spikes added to your armor, which allow you to deal extra piercing damage on a successful grapple attack.") It says "attack" not "check" so to use the spikes, one...

I don't think it can use its claw (or any natural weapon) for damage using "damage your opponent". As I read it, "attack your opponent" deals "real" damage (weapon, natural weapon) while "damage your opponent" deals grappling damage. Except for armor spikes, maybe they should simply be simple...

Thanks for the link. It has been edited in March 2007, mostly regarding natural weapons. (thought: could this editing have something to do with 4e?) I don't remember when the Rules Compendium is from relative to March 2007 and don't know if "Rules of the Game" is official (don't think it really...

That's what it sounds like to me as well. The reason I question it is I don't find it reasonable that for example a grappling wyvern only gets one real attack against another wyvern, and a leopard cannot rend a human. (Because they are of the same size, Improved Grapple does not work and...

Is this true? It sure is! That clears up a lot for me. (I had misread the IG description in the SRD which does not have as much structure.) But now I wonder - Is it both parts of Improved Grab (start grapple after normal attack and natural weapon damage as grapple damage) that only work on...

I have not been able to find the exact text you quote (where is it from?), but it certainly sounds like the usual rule. But... maybe the specific grappling rules (which could imply multiple natural attacks with one natural weapon) trump the general rule on the number of natural attacks? Ok...

Complete Adventurer Errata... My players will thank you for mentioning that. And I will have to try to find a different way to make goblin worg riders a significant threat to them.

So to inflict natural-weapon-damage, Ozzy must use the rules for "Attack Your Opponent". Reading the rule (see below), he can clearly only use one of his natural weapons (bite most likely). But can he use it once or three times? Hypersmurf, do you have a reference for only allowing one bite attack?

I'm running RHoD and soon, the heroes will encounter their first serious dragon, Ozzy. I have run dragons before without trouble, but now the party has a rather good grappler (bear totem barbarian) who will probably try to grapple the dragon. So I need to know how a dragon grapples. From...

I have considered the same thing (everything increases by +1 per 2 levels) and think it is mostly brilliant. The only concern I really have is what to do with the con modifier for hitpoints and to a lesser degree the int modifier to skills. If hitpoints is affected by con as in 3e, it will give...
