Hey, one of the guys writing them is actually playtesting it with his group. So you know it will be high quality! One whole set of playtesters!

I developed a 3-up template in powerpoint, its much easier and you can go to the master page and change the design elements, then have it instantly reflected on your certs...the players liked it immediately, and want one for everything they find. (Once they can make things, it gets to be too...

The Reduce spell says that weight, mass, and strength are affected, so you have to reduce its strength score and bonuses, though for some reason it keeps its hit points even though they were determined mostly by size (this makes no sense but that is what the spell says) The creature also keeps...

I prefer to couch it in positive terms... Thanks for allowing characters to have an AC of over a 100 after only 11 characters levels. They have to buff up, but then everything thrown at them must be a "20" to hit. At least there is that 5% chance left... Thanks for armor in general being...

Re: You're looking for something like this? Also, it does not correctly use the D12 hit dice for undead, although it shows them in the category, it doesn't carry them down. It is an excellent start to making a creature, but you cannot make anything but simple creatures with it, because it has...

All of the dinosaurs are weaker, I am making my own set based on paleontology records and Skip's wonderful little article...up to about 40 now...and they will kill you, ask my sone who died from a Triceratops charge...

Although it took several months to get all the data together, my little hobby store was losing $2,000 a month, when we finally pulled the plug. Later, in business school, I discovered we had broken just about every rule about running a small business, such as excessive sunk costs in slow moving...

Instead of "know thy self," advice some on here take too literally, I would advise you to "edit yourself." Whatever point there was in that mess could have been made with 10 percent of the words. We are all busy here, if you have a point, and want us to know it, formulate it, THEN start writing...

I have a player who is turning into a Drow (elf who has used powerful evil artifact to raise dead, his eyes are now solid black and he generates a fear aura.) This player was told by the party not to use the artifact, but he just couldn't resist, and now he has his next three levels picked out...

Well, there isn't a DM per se, but Gnomic is a very difficult game, unless you are playing with evil genuises... http://www.nomic.net/deadgames/Gnomic/rules.0.html

Nice work, but you should extend the advancement of the 3 HD creatures to be three times their start, i.e., up to 9 HD...I would also think that Sprites would advance according to character class, not a size progression...

You can only delay 10 counts, not the whole round. I would leave the surprise round alone, if anyone is in it, let them act normally and everything works well enough. I will test out the "there is no surprise so why can't I ready an action" idea. I actually have had a Living Greyhawk Triad...

My party were simply traveling the same road when a group of bandits attacked, and they had to defend themselves and then they got mad and wanted to "take care" of the bandit problem. Players since then are considered hirelings, so they get whatever share of treasure, etc., they negotiate with...

Frankly, if they are just going to milk the Intellectual Property represented by the core books and expansions, why do they even need WotC? All the books to be released have already been written and are just waiting for release (Book of Vile Darkness, etc.) They don't need anyone except a...

Had a chance to attend the briefing on it this weekend at DragonCon. I like almost everything I heard them say, return of certs, low magic, limited availability of magic and superior items. The naming conventions are odd. My biggest problem with them was the lack of support from KenzerCo. They...

300 pages of useful tables covering castle building, hirelings, a religion generator, etc. Basically take many of the things hand made by the good people here and put them in one place...

I am editing the full conversion of all Athasian creatures (more than 200!), and now some of them will be in MM II and won't be SRD, so I don't know what to do with them...guess I will just leave my versions as is until I see the MM II.

The CR is usually accurate +/- 1 level. Giants are accurate, I think, but most creatures are rated too high for experienced players. For inexperienced players (defined as players who don't know the strengths and weaknesses of the creatures because they have never encountered them before), the CR...

50%, four of the eight players are using them. Radiant of Pelor, Divine Oracle, Dwarven Defender, and Arcane Archer.

Next up: Delay in contest results until the end of September....after that, they can just give up and cancel the whole thing...I think the master tools team is running this, which would explain a few things...
