Patryn is correct in the description. I should have thought to use a little character map! Also, the two sides you arrived at were the exact two sides the DM (first one) and the players (second one) sided on. The DM is afraid of the PCs using a summon monster as a "detect bad guy" spell...

So, this came up in last weeks game, and I'd like some feedback. Here's the situation: Players are attacking a hobgoblin warren. Three players have gone down the 20ft hole already, one (the druid) is left at the surface, and cannot see what is going on in the hole. Two of the three players are...

I too enjoyed it! It was the first game I'd played - and now I'm like 7. :D I'd also like to give a hand to Nikolai for running it for us! Thanks!

Everyone in my group puts names in books. During the session, books go flying around the table. At the beginning of the game I'll be using my PHB - by the end of the game I'll probably have used everyone else's PHB at least once, and mine could be anywhere. So after the session, we'll have to...

I've got the perfect map for you: Try "The Lost City" from 0one Games. http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=4492 It includes maps of a pyramid, and it's surroundings. By the way, all of the other maps in the Blueprints series are also awesome. I've got every one, and I...

Well, it's occured several times in my campaign - when the players visited the Plane of Air and once on the Plane of Chaos. The Plane of Chaos was the most interesting - a player was "falling" forward at full speed... when the air became solid rock. *BLAM* - dead PC. Needless to say, they took...

Felix has it. Also, here are some suggestions for falls from very high distances. To approximate distance over time and terminal velocity, we use the rule that you fall a maximum distance of 150 feet in the first round (6 seconds) and 300 feet a round after that. It's not precise or...

Hijack This! is also good for finding things that are running or start up on reboot. That stops the proggie from running, so you can kill it eaiser.

Yeah, I went through there several times, but I'm not sure what the name is.

Somewhere, I saw an excel sheet that helps calculate the difficulty of an encounter based on the party. I can't seem to find it now. Does anyone know what it was called, or where it can be found? Thanks!

Well, this isn't an adventure locale - but it is a moment like the one Crothian had. So, PCs are looking for the Special Item of Doom. They track it back to a wizard who's been trapped in a cave for years. They enter the cave, only to find that the wizard is still alive - as a lich! So...

I'll second the call for Fantasy Grounds. It's the best online version of table-top RPGing there is! I'm playing in one game, and will likely start DMing one of my own. It's smooth, and feels as close to table-top as you can get. Plus, it's not a subscription-based fee or a pay-per-game...

Ahh, that's it then! Well, thanks for helping me out! :lol:

Is this a good place to test my signature? For some reason, it seems to not be working. For a while it did - and then it stopped. I've got back into it several times and resaved it, but nothing seems to be working. Unless of course it works this time. Let's see: Okay, it seems that...

I suppose it all hinges on your point of view. It's not the bodycount that's the desire - it's the unknown that beckons. While I could set up a story where the PCs have no fear of an accidental death, that really boils down to me describing the story to them with some occational input. Either...

Well, I am playing with some friends so that wasn't an issue for us. However, on their forums you could probably scare up a game - and then get the software once you had a group. Or you might try the fourms here - but I dunno how many EN Worlders have FG. Or you could start your own game...

Actually, the intent was specifcally to make things slightly more realistic. Try jumping off a 20 foot cliff sometime and landing on the ground - I think you'll find it hurts more than 2d6 points of damage. While my system doesn't replicate what happens when you fall, it adds uncertainty...

I didn't like the way falling rules worked too well, so I added a small additional level of danger - a Fortitude or die save based on the distance fallen. So far since establishing the rule, quite a few checks have been made. Most were at higher levels, so they were passed easily - even when...

Let me recommend to you Fantasy Grounds: Http://www.fantasygrounds.com It does a superb job of recreating the in-person feel over the computer. Dice that roll, sheets on the tables, maps that everyone can see and tokens that they can move around. All you're missing is someone to split the...

Excellent! The I was thinking of was the Complete Warrior version. Thanks for the help!
