Yes, but the information you give is scarce, and sounds a lot like 5th Edition, Erik. And given that Pathfinder was a spin-off of 3rd Edition rules, you can't blame us for thinking that way. People is always going to assume things and link facts. And in this case, we have strong motives to do...

Ha. I think that most of us see it coming. Although there are some (pretty valid) points to take in account, the elephant of the room being: Is it a smart move? I, for one, could try Pathfinder 2, although I'm not sure of it, because I already play 5e and pretty much fills my needs of generic...

Ah, but there is a very strong focus on magic in D&D. We agree that spells are rules. In fact, they are like Magic: The Gathering cards. And there are tons of rules attached to it: saving throws, for example. All classes have access to spells also, at least as 1/3 casters, like the Eldritch...

Disclaimer: Please, please, please don't take this as an attempt of edition/gaming flame war. This is merely a description of how do TTRPGs work, not a judgement about them. When we say that one RPG is focused on "combat" or any other part of the game (EG: the Three Pillars of the Game proposed...

I think that we agree on most points. But the fact is that you have (like I do, after all my surname is French) European ancestry, but you belong to an entirely different culture, so do I (that's where we disagree a little bit). And you and I belong to different cultures, but that doesn't mean...

I'm risking to be crucified by this but... this is kind of a double standard. Ok, let's be clear: a north (or south) American isn't a European person. Is North (or South) American, and neither have anything to do with knights in shinning armors, dragons, and such. At best it is an European...

They have gauchos. In AD&D. VERY argentinian theme ;) and that's why I'm quoting it. If you don't know what a gaucho is and you only think that is a Steely Dan album, here it is an image. It is Martín Fierro, the most famous fictional gaucho ever.

And don't you forget that it also adds 1d8 damage while disarming. Far better than a normal attack.

I think that there are "soft" feats and "hard" feats. Soft ones are the features that make your player to make something better than average, and provide an example of how it could work without the feat. Hard ones are the features that cover things that a player couldn't possibly attempt without...

Some time ago I've made simple enough Equipment Duration rules. In short, each fight saps 1 duration point for all equipment. Each piece of equipment has its own Duration value, based on its AC/max damage values. Once you have depleted all Duration points, you receive a penalty. Better equipment...

As a side note, the AD&D Red Steel setting for Mystara is a great source of altenity.

In Argentina, we have several comics exploring fantasy in different cultural settings. Mazziteli and Alcatena have created several stories and worlds without the "medievalish fantasy" setting in mind, purposefully. Panteras is a series of comics in Timbuba, the Lost World, with a strong african...

Asumo que sos mejicano, al menos por lo del chocolate, no sabía lo del atún :). Sigo en inglés por el foro. I think you hit the mark here, at least partially, linking recent and ancient history with likenesses. But I also believe that there is at least two more factors included: The first one...

I liked your warlock-like artificer idea, although I don't quite like the gunsmith idea. I'm a bit surprised that it's that needed such type of character, but I feel like it is a cultural thing: mostly an USA trait. In the Hispanic community isn't near that popular. In Argentina and Spain, at...

There is no such thing as lack of options in 5th Ed. There is over 60 subclasses available! I use to look the old classes, and the sane thing 5th Ed did was to condense the hell out of them. And balanced a lot of them so they don't become trap options, increasing a lot of the viability of...

A true psionic character, not the UA unwieldy killing machine. Centered in Telekinesis, for Jebus! Enviado desde mi XT1063 mediante Tapatalk

I agree. A grappling hook and a BFG ballista could do the trick in a flying mote. Even a small familiar could theoretically carry one hook and rope.

I think something like a flying moat in the FR? A flying city? In both cases I can think of ways to circumvent the necessity of the Fly spell. I'm thinking on gnomes constructing balloons to reach them, or elves with griffons (as in Dragonlance). In an old party of AD&D, a friend of mine used...

And as I've said so before, you can solve it quickly: horror movie. And they know it. Also, it isn't going to be better at level five, when a wizard could pass only one creature at a time, possibly at best two without needing to rest, and spending their most powerful spells. Name one. One gate...

As I've said and you conveniently ignored, the gate is still a gate if only one player has a flying character. You talked about an entire party of flying characters, and I've responded accordingly: if you have such a party, you could still use gates. And wind. Why do you keep neglecting wind...
