I found this t20 wiki in my searching: incomplete and somewhat buggy, but not a bad glimpse at the T20 skills, feats, and classes: http://t20.org.uk Many of the T20 skill-enhancing feats look like they could use a little bit of a boost compared to 3.5 or d20 Modern feats. I might be tempted to...

There were two separate divine ability arrays used in the DMG -- I think the Greyhawk pantheon used a slightly different array. I believe the standard divine array was 35, 28, 25, 24, 24, 24. Deities also gain +1 ability point per per class level (or is it +1/4 class levels?), +1 ability point...

I think there are many pieces from CotSQ that can be looted to expand a GDQ campaign -- most of part 2, for example, and there are plenty of maps from other places than can be used. I was going to use a fortress from CotSQ as the Eilservs estate, for example. The ELs in CotSQ are approximate to...

Has anyone tried Screenmonkey? I posted this question over on the computer forum but haven't gotten any replies.

I've certainly found 3e Rules + 1e Adventures = one kick-ass campaign.

Nitpick of a nitpick: What are the victory conditions of a role-playing game?

Has anyone here tried out Screenmonkey? The ability for my players to connect thru just a browser is huge, and it looks like I've got the basic to run the client on my machine.

On one hand, 2e did an excellent job in terms of taking the confused, inconsistent, and bloated 1st edition ruleset and streamlining and reorganizing it into the three new core rulebooks. I think the 2e PHB still holds up as a solid piece of design. The 2e DMG a little less so, and the Monstrous...

One thing about this research that is blowing me away is the amount of material available for T20 -- both commercially and fan-created. I mean, I've been reading EnWorld since it was just a 3e rumor site with a different name, and I had no idea that T20 had built up any kind of following at all...

Thanks for the links -- I've bookmarked 'em all.

What would be the differences between the three types? Is it tone, or structure, or mechanics? It would help a lot if I could start narrowing my focus somewhat.

Thanks for the advice -- I appreciate both your posts.

Holy cow, some of those CDs are crazy good values. Many thanks for that! I just ordered the Classic Traveller today.

How well does the Stamina/Lifeblood system work in play? I've got to say, that's the one thing about the system that sounds really wonky.

I think face-to-face is generally more fun for the effort and certainly easier to run, but play-by-chat has some charms of its own that aren't found in face-to-face play. I haven't run a ton of pbc games, but they seemed to have less out-of-character distractions than a face-to-face game. And...

So I've been gaming since the early 80s, and I've always been haunted by the Third Imperium setting of Traveller -- it sounded like an incredibly cool and rich backdrop for a sci-fi campaign. I've never played the game in any form, but I've read a ton of stuff in old White Dwarfs, Dragon...

I'm looking for a few sessions worth of encounters to round out my underworld campaign. I was hoping folks could suggest some nice encounters featuring aboleth, derro, duergar, or mind flayers. And not necessarily all at once, either. I'm not looking for full-fledged adventures featuring these...

Tome of Horrors, hands down. I've got tons of monster books, but that one is the real deal.

Out of curiosity, does it bug you because because DR 15/magic is inconsistent, or because 15/magic is almost meaningless to a higher level party.

Yeah, I was pretty proud of my players. And this move was actually a triple-cross: The drow female fighter they captured back in the troglodyte warrens was a member of House Noquar, and as such she was opposed to the Eilservs. Since the PCs had killed Eclavdra back in Snurre's Hall, they were...
