give em a cannon and some powder kegs, plus an arquebus or two. hell, GOBLINS are dangerous with that kind of technology :D

C&C to AD&D or any version of D&D is easy. at http://www.dragonsfoot.org the C&C forum has all sorts of information for doing this. C&C is neat because you can easily use all the 3e stuff too. I do it the hard way myself, converting 3e to AD&D. But if you are looking to update your game and not...

I converted this module for 1e use, and i think it's pretty good. there a number of methods you can appraoch the ruins in which the orcs are holed up, and my players favored the kick-in-the-front-door, swords flashing approach. It's got a pretty classic story line, stemming off an invasion by...

solution: convert to 1e. or even 2e. the challenges never stop. the AD&D inquisition is near at hand...qapla...

HA! I fool you again, boy! now give me your college money, tonight you sleep on the lawn with the other single-celled organisms!

my players certainly didnt retire at 9th level. 35th is my cutoff rate. there are rules for characters progressing that high, im not sure if they were in the black book or not, but they exist.

HA! Made you look!

i did away with level limits AND racial adjustments so you can be a weak dwarf of any level in my campaign.

that paper is actually erroneous in some areas, but that doesnt matter. they had wheel on toys but they did NOT use them in transit. one of the reasons people dont like to acknowledge that is because it paints native americans in an unfavorable light and narrow minded racists will use iit as a...

i think i agree with you. i always felt personally that 3e was monty haul as all hell, giving low level characters too much power when they are supposed to be experienced. thats the impression i got off this statement. personally, i tend to gravitate towards 1e, but 2e isnt that farr off from 1e...

as far as flavor goes, thats all dependent on how good the players and dm are and how hard they try. as far as a better system goes, well, my opinions arent exactly a secret. i consider 3e too complex and a rules lawyers game. 3e deserves its praises, however. the books have lots of great...

Ah...okay then. thing thats funny is ive been roleplaying since i was knee high to a halfling, which is the only reason i qualify.

heres where i embarass myself. whats a gronard? are my feelings supposed to be hurt? ::rolls for intiative for snappy response::

the wave of releif that washed over me...was awe inspiring....:D i mean to say that ive gone through well over two edition changes from the threee boxed sets to AD&D 1e to 2e to the lame board game attempt to 3e and now...3.5. i have several conversion books, so i dont even bother keeping up...

70/30? most of the time it's 50/50. and if the DM is any good hell take things into account, unless your character needs to be humbled (which is often the case.)

understandable concerns. i justified them with this: Even the strongest warriors can be taken down when they are ganged up on. my players really grew on this system because it makes mass combat a very dangerous undertaking, as it should be. morale checks can come in, and the percentile chance...

i find most of the rules for mass combat to be long and drawn out so i came up with this: THE QUICK AND DIRTY MASS COMBAT SYSTEM (designed for 1e but compatible with all) a player rolls a d20 twice. if they roll a 15 or higher they re-roll. the first roll is the honor roll and the second is a...

im to understand you wrote this book? i have more third edition books than some may think, and this is the best one. the price was reasonable to me. i had been looking for a way to add more of a horror element to my game without ripping off lovecraft or putting stupid slasher villians in my...

i feel that bogs the game down in technicality. ive DM'd way more than ive played to be honest, and if someone says "i duck for cover" i go on my previous description of the landscape, and decide if cover is available or not. more times than not, it is. 3e has some excellent ideas that i have...

ive looked and looked for castles and crusades but i cant find it. id love to get a copy, ill check out that link. someone else told me about the talenta plains eberron halfling thing, and i was pretty dumb struck. i dont want to say i came up with it first, because for all i know i didnt. i...
