I shamelessly steal. I have most of the 1e, 2e, 3e and o5e books. I convert the information from the original source into the LU5E format. This is very easily done for heritage, but I may have to get creative with the gifts. This is where I look at existing gifts to ensure I maintain the power...
This looks great. I spent a few weeks last Summer making a Star Wars to A5E conversion. I used both the SWd6 and d20 systems as a starting point. Was never quite satisfied with it. I think Voidrunner will work much better.
Can you explain your interpretation here? Because a RAW reading to me does not lead to the same conclusion. Devoted Assault on a crit allows the use of another Tempered Iron maneuver that is activated by an action or bonus action. There is no mention of additional actions similar to other...
Your game, so do it however you like. Personally I do not believe RAW or RAI would indicate that you may direct the attack back to the attacker. “On a failure, you take no damage and the attack targets another creature within 5 feet.”
1. It says another creature rather than any creature within...
I mean why not? Was there an original SRD 5 prior to 5.1? I don’t have the OGL in front of me, but I don’t remember a clause in it regarding authorisation or revocation of the SRD. In fact didn’t SRD’s come out after the OGL?
I have a question for the lawyers here. The legality of de-authorising the OGL is in doubt, but what about revoking SRD 5.1? Can they choose to leave OGL 1.0(a) alone, but revoke SRD 5.1 and replace it with an extremely bare bones 5.2 that effectively revokes the OGL?
I believe you are correct. This is about dominating the digital market and tying it to subscriptions. They could have achieved that without causing this mess by simply confiding in some of the large 3pp’s and let them spread the message. They did not need to go scorched earth on the OGL to...
“Praise Bahamut, er I mean Paladine, er I mean that platinum coloured drake in the sky.”
In all seriousness, I love the foresight put into this game. I and my players feel this is the best edition to play at our table. Thank you for your efforts.
There you go. There was a lot of borrowing going on.
Back to the rpg side. In the 80’s there were so many D&D adjacent games and supplements that it was a two way street as far as mechanics and classes go. We mostly played AD&D, but would use anything that looked good. Years later reading 3.5...
Also heavily “borrowed” from Elric of Melniboné, and Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser. The OD&D alignment system (Law vs Chaos) was definitely based on the Elric books. I remember reading a Vance novel that had a spell called Prismatic Spray that was obviously lifted straight into D&D. How many other...
Agreed. We all have one of those players. My player swore up and down I was wrong until I highlighted the text, then whined that his character build was ruined.
