Actually the best game for it might be Savage Worlds. Fast combat based rules and a miniumum of complications. SJE

I've been reading some more through the book. While the different racial types didnt appeal too much to me (and the Bloodfed mercanitle halflings reminded me of Exclipse Caste Exalted), there were two things that looked very interesting. Firstly there was the signature regions of magical...

The reason I thought this book was worth buying was because someone else had gone through the possible inter-species breeding possibilities and made some reasonable assumptions about whether race X could inter-breed with race Y. Why is this important? Well in my last game, two of the PC's (from...

Thank you for your reply Mr Kennan, I appreciate it. Can I just ask- why the names missing vowels like 'Lrean' or 'Hrum'? Was there a design choice made there? My trouble with such names is that I find them tremendously difficult to pronounce properly. I presume that the reason for missing...

Well I got MorningStar today and had a quick look through at it. I hope this is the right forum to discuss as it looks like non-WotC D&D to me. Overall, less than impressed. Average presentation, no colour art, and not too much B&W art. I saw the racial classes for the so-called immortal Fey...

Oh certainly- theres a lot more Diplomacy (seduction) used, but the lad has to brag about something. Its the usual bloke thing. SJE

So I read the Book of Erotic Fantasy the other day- after getting having it surreptiously passed to me in a brown paper bag at the FLGS. And I have to say that it was one of the better d20 books I've read this year. Not as well written and interesting as something like Midnight but more...

Just wondering if anyone had read the Book of Erotic Fantasy? What is it like?- a Heavy Metal magazine with d20ish feats 'n classes? Exploitative porn? Well written innovative gaming material? Thx. SJE

I ran a successful game of Midnight (successful since the players begged me not to move away and finish the game, but real life, eh...) Here are the things I noticed- Poor magic armour availability means that with fighters BAB increasing, AC values dont increase at the same pace. I wound up...

Midnight Actual Play] Penultimate, but Epic session Just had the pernultimate session of my campaign. And all the stops have come out! Guided by a star, the PC's have travelled the continent and find themselves in Sharuun, where the Messiah, the child of the old Gods will be born. King...

Basic story was this- the ancestral clan sword of the Dales had been lost in the fall of Cale. Anette Redgardt daughter of the lord of Cale, was a Channeller intensely in love with one of the elf PC's before the Last Battle. (He is an older elf) However she was to marry Matrim Dale, holder of...

Handforged- Oops. the important thing I didnt mention was this- Astirax's are uniquely vulverable to silver. Nothing else can kill them pretty much. Silverblood is a Personal spell that turns the casters blood into a coatable silver liquid. The caster then bleeds over a weapon and coats it, so...

As I threatened long ago to Steve and Morgan, an actual play report on Midnight. Anyway, the reason I posted was that I was still flabberghasted by last night, which was a very memorable game. The Party consists of Illyn, an doddering, forgetful Elven Channeller, Ke an ass-kicking Danisil...

Just to clarify- The defence bonus used would stack with armour, since it effectively replaces the magical plus of magic armour. The WoT system has the slight problem of mapping from the WoT classes over to the Midnight classes. We are also still on 3.0 for the time being. I quite like the...

I'm running a Midnight game and have been wrestling with the problem of the PC's having low AC's since magical armour will not be available in the game. One thing I've done to balance this at low levels is allow Mastercrafted armour to add and extra +1 to the normal AC bonus. (so a...
