Paizo has an internal Excel file for creating/balancing monsters. I don't know if they share, but it wouldn't hurt to ask!

The Siege Engine ain't all that, it is pretty much a xerox of the level for skills system in the 3e UA, with the "twist" that instead of feat/skills there is a +6 for primes. Wow, revolutionary. That being said, saves tied to attributes may have been a novel idea in D&D land back in the...

If you mean generic art, terrible editing, late late late late vaporware products, or sneaky business practices, man I sure hope not. If you mean some thing like a polished up 2e with a simple core that can be built on, then hell yes. In a thread guaranteed to attract the attention of C&C...

I am editing the TB book down to a Trailblazer Basic book. I have pared it down to about 90 pages atm, but am not really sure how to deal with the spells. I cut out alot of the non player material, and it seems like something that could be have real fast character creation. Still a work in...

Hehe, they will be reissuing the main book in larger format with better formatting? I guess the $10 sale on Loot! was a way to clear out some old stock. I am now the proud owner of the old, hard to read gen it seems. :p The good news is the new book will be even better!

You're probably right, I am a 3e noob, lol.

I reviewed the feats in TB slightly more closely, FWIW, I think a good compromise would be to remove metamagic feats from my game. The general feats would be acceptable, and divine feats seem ok and not too OP. Enlarged maximized magic missles (refreshing after each rest) seem pretty nasty...

How about just dropping feats for full caster classes and keeping them for martial/hybrid classes? The casters already have all those fancy spells. They have a huge power-up with the access to all spells and the rest mechanic. Huge power-up. Taking away their feats could be a novel way to...

Awesome sauce my man, would you mind if Wulf posted these on the Bad Axe site? And would Wulf mind updating the BAG site at the same time? The Loot! sale would have been awesome front page news on there! Cheers

Thanks for the update!

Can anyone contact them and ask about the hold up? Do they have a batch update policy or something?

The updated pdfs of the core books have already been sent to the pdf dealers, but it seems they have yet to upload them. There is a thread in general gaming forum that is being maintained by interested parties. Cheers

Bump :uhoh:. Hope to hear soon, I don't feel like wasting print money again.

Well, I have looked at the starter rules in Keep on the Shadowfell and they seem rather complete for what needs to be done. A good way to get a grasp of the system is just to run the little adventure in the starter set by yourself. The logic of the system will be evident that way. After you...

Heh, I live in Taiwan where printing is cheap, my sturdily printed and bound softcover RC only cost $6usd. Almost as cheap as the watermarked PDF.

If you want to use Ad&d monsters, you can subtract 1 from the monster's AC; everything else shouldn't be too off. You might also look at the Cleric's spell progression in the C&C quick start guide. LL might also be a good set, or try C&C which has modernized some of the rules in the RC. The...

Check out the Haunted Highlands DB1 from Troll Lords. It has a fully fleshed out tavern along with bar games such as bar knuckle boxing (including gambling rule), darts, NPCs, and various other fun bits. It is for C&C but it shouldn't be too hard to port it over to 4e, actually it is a great...

I for one would love to see a reprint of the 1e DMG, it is an amazing book which continues to be useful. I would like to see it reorganized into a more coherent product (not rewritten though); made into something more usable for people who are not grogs. A Phantom Edit if you will... errata'd...
