Wasn't planning on using anything that wasn't in the corebook, mostly because of the balance issue, just looking at the pyromancer I see an immbalance, necromancer sort of aswell i MIGHT allow gnomes, not sure, if it comes up then sure, but most likely not. Also 'monster races' might be in...

If you have any pointers that could help me please send them! :lol:

We cannot run, we HAVE to do this mission, its for the church but since we're all from that region you would think we would all be evil or immune, but no...this DM thinks Horses can live in horrible wastes where there is no food for them to eat, it is just a sort of illogical setting with poor...

I get what you're saying, and I agree, it is a pretty damn fantastic system, the little problems I have are easily fixed (I.E. scaling scenarios) but what I thought at first was a downfall is exactly why it is great, not trying to start an edition war, but with 4th edition they made "DMing...

*sigh* Roll for initiative gents, last man standing wins.

I'd have to agree with the Jester, the point buy system is not my favorite, at least for this style of game. While I DO like the backgrounds, I think it is something the player could come up with on their own, something they don't really need on paper, the 'not needing classes' route can (and...

All of my paladins that die, die in dragon fire. I see dying in a roleplay moment the only way to die, think of the vikings, my barbarian has to die in battle, or he failed his time alive, the rogue has to challenge himself accordingly HOWEVER a DM should never put in a challenge the PCs...

Wouldn't go near it.

No, I tend to choose the character concept as race AND class while thinking of what to do, its a choice made at the same time... only time I did this was with an orc barbarian, he wrestled a stone giant and pinned him for three rounds, at the end of which the giant broke free and was shot to...

They are using the funky dice for the same reason they are using monsters that we as players have never seen before (nothing but new monsters) Who remember's their first fight with a mimic? A troll? A grick? Who remembers being a younger kid and counting the sides of a die to make sure its...

In soviet russia, character plays you? and I want to play a fighter who fights with a light hammer and a sickle, name him "Sergei"

Look into this, it is a different game, but it IS totally free. Basic Fantasy Role-Playing Game still keeps all the good parts of 3.5 (IMO those are ascending AC and most of how combat works) but gives the "GM" more options, takes out skills (there are house rules that allow you to add...

10 gallons or beach pails? Dice usually are shared (ah! someone! I need 4d6! quick!) and paper...we try to have more than enough, pencils however, they are easily worth a staff of power.

Well you could just make it a communist table and have one big pot of dice...one big pot of pencils and one big pot of paper...of course, this could spark a new thread.

I agree, they should put together a "2.5" core book with all of the new classes and material...perhaps I could do this? I would also rearrange some of the things so when you look up your class it's all there (Saves, im looking at you) but it does seem like something that is worth a try, minimal...

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ACTUAL OD&D BUT RATHER WITH RETRO CLONES So it sure seems like retro-clone is in, while it may not be popular with you, a lot of them are coming out, or are already out. So why not mix advertising with a few questions and hopefully a review? Basic Fantasy...

So this is very much a joke thread, I hope to see no fighting, arguing or anything. However I do expect to see explicit material. List things players should NEVER do at the table. Please do not go into horribly gross detail, try to remain nice and 'clean' keep it clean, but get a little dirty.

The dice actually made me happy, I liked the fancy and fun dice. I also like the old school feel, but if you know about Basic Fantasy Roleplay, that seems more like a way to go (no joke, its a totally free rpg that does the same kinda thing) now the reason I am interested in getting it is not...

In the end, we're all happy. The real question is, if a violent fungus falls in the middle of a dungeon and no one is around to hear it, who get's the XP?

does this mean I'm in trouble?
