Ok, i dont like the idea that inteligence is one of the less appealing ability scores to take a high number. The Physical attributes are fine to me: Dex and Con will affect Initiative and HP, Str affect your load (not THAT important, bus still can affect you sometimes) Mental attributes are...

Correct me if im wrong, but optimization is all about choosing bonus and builds that will be better in lots of situations. I never saw a game where you rolled as many Lockpicking checks as Broadsword attacks... Both buildings will be fine in this kind of game. But in most games ive played...

In my experience, Classless systems tend to make characters with very close mechanics... and somewhat boring. I used to play shadowrun for a time, but aside from flavor, Every shaman had the same (optimal) spells, every Decker the same (optimal) software and so on. And this can get really worse...

Ok, for a likeable D&D (or fantasy) setting i need this: - "Easy way to introduce new places or new things." In Planescape you can always stumble in a exotic and different place. In ravenloft you can always find a exotic and different realm. That´s the idea... - "Fake Cultures." I really like...

- No low level starting games... starting at 3rd level is still fine, higher than that and i will probably lose interest - Railroad to death... I game to try and accomplish new things. I dont NEED to be succesfull in all of them.,.. but i expect to have succes in at least some of them. -...

I have a long time GM and friend that love "Investigation" Games... Im used to play this games with him cause he simply doesnt like to play a character...And some of his action games are really great. But the investigation... it´s usually all about walking in empty places looking for clues that...

Thanks for the input guys. I think the only problem i will have is finding balanced powers for my monsters, but as i noticed, Monster builder wont help me with this ;-).

Hello guys, im really interested in starting a 4th ed online campaign... having gamed 3ed for over 8 years. I liked the changes and want to give it a try. I spent lots of time making NPCs and monsters in 3th ed for my weekly game, almost double or triple game time. I have no plans to get...

- Lots of Travels to strange places and cultures... i love ravenloft and planescape cause of the possibility to explore different settings in each sessions.

Hello seth, i read your articles and really liked your idea. Some questions: How will you deal with infection? if a simple scratch can make you zombie... the players will run from fights all the time. Are you aiming at a more fluff game? Rogue are one of your base classes, but they will be...

Hello, my name is Balam_br and im guilty. 1) I´m so used to be the GM that i have trouble just playing... i would love to play a game, but im always feeling that the game is too railroaded or just lacking a plotline or the encounters are too easy, or the GM dont give me a real chance to use my...

-..would you allow one of your players... Yeah, im all about "Stranger in a strange land characters" for my Homebrew worlds, no problem with that... i had a time i loved this kind of characters as a player, but after some years it just got old... -How often do your homesettings... My hombrew...

Just seven of them... im from Brazil and i dont think brazilians are used to read this forum.

Linear Attribute scaling... I never got the 2ed attribute thing... Dex 8 and dex 14 was almost the same thing... It was a pain for me to do my house ruled World of Darkness cross overs ;-P

Without D&D i would probably still be playing OWoD, or Earthdawn, my group fantasy game of choice. I love GURPS and Shadowrun but i dont think i could find even 2 other players to make a group.

YEAH!!! that was it... thanks for the help!!!!!!!!

Huummm dont think so... it had another name, it wasnt D&D cemtered, and a really simple (even ugly) interface... but thanks for the suggestion. Any more ideas guys?

I used to play in a big forum 4 or 5 years ago, it had hundrds of games from different systems and a lot of inbuilt mechanics to look for games and advertise for new players... i stopped the hobby for some years but now im feeling the urge to come back... but really dont remember the name or url...

I liked the approach and certainly would play a dwarf with that kind of philosophy...
