    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    How about financing it with kickstarter and going for print on demand in the beginning? Why?

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    It escapes me a little why some might think a print of E6 should go for some special flavour of fantasy. I don´t understand this as basic 3.5 doesn´t do that either. At least 3.5 never explains how the assumed world is supposed to work, mixing high level superheroes with middle age economy, wild...

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    (Edit: I had to repost this thread since the title ending with the word "Print" took you to the Print version of the thread and no one could answer. Thanks to the_orc_within for telling me about this!) This goes out to OGL publishers and to fans of E6: Following the forums on enworld...

    What the World needs: E6 in Print

    This goes out to OGL publishers and to fans of E6: Following the forums on enworld, rpg net and Paizo lately there is a LOT of buzz about E6. Threads about it keep popping up and lots of gamers write that it is their favourite variant of D&D. E6 is, in my opinion, a great system that gives...

    Triggered flashbacks

    Sounds very nice, an approach that puts the flashback into the player´s hands. Thanks for the recommendation, will check it out soon!

    Triggered flashbacks

    In my mind it doesn´t really matter if the player misses the trigger. The trigger shouldn´t be too specific, so if the player misses it, the DM can reuse it again at a later point in the campaign. For example "Blind wolf" could be the name that a farmer´s wife uses when she talks about her...

    Triggered flashbacks

    I had this idea about triggered flashbacks that I´d like to pitch to you. At the beginning of the campaign, each player gets a note with 5 key words and/or phrases. For example: - blind wolf - the morning´s embrace - It cries forever - a golden shimmering sphere - nothing short of a...

    Intelligent Weapons?

    We once had an intelligent weapon in a campaign where I played a Barbarian. It was a handsome mace and everyone liked it. I think no one really used it but everyone enjoyed its remarks. He dreamt about becoming human himself but we weren´t powerful enough to help him. Then one day it was...

    How to Handle a Chase

    Has anyone tried the Pathfinder chase rules? I´d be very interested if they play out as cool as they sound.

    Plug-in Lifepath system

    Thanks! In one of the threads I read that Treebore was working on a revamp of the Central Casting book. Wonder what came out of that?

    Plug-in Lifepath system

    Hi there, I´m thinking about developing a lifepath system for my campaign, to be used by the players during character creation. I´d like one that resolves things as heritage, social class, family, relationships with NPCs and so on. Before I begin though, I was thinking if something like this...

    Thanks a lot to you! Plenty to fill my campaign with nastiness now. :)

    Creatures of the Ethereal Plane

    Hi there, for my 3.5 game "Pirates of the Ethereal Plane" I am looking for creatures native to the ethereal plane. Does anyone know monsters besides the following? Ethereal Filcher Phase Spider Ethereal Marauder Night Hag Cheers, Rob

    Advice for campaign of one session adventures?

    I´d also advise to give the campaign the backbone of a serial. Consider to have the characters be the members of a group, preferably one that travels around a lot by nature. For example, all of the characters could be the players of a music band, each session takes place in a different location...

    Power Game my Life!

    Am I the only one who dislikes the term "Mary Sue"? Really wish it would stop to appear in fun discussions like this one...

    triathlon...

    This sounds like a skill challenge and a very fun one indeed. Maybe even three small skill challenges, each representing one of the tests. Basically you could use the guidelines to create skill challenges in the DM´s guide. I don´t remember them very well but first of all you should define the...

    How to convince my players to give 2e a try?

    So, ummm, it didn´t work out. No one wants to play 2E, not even give it a try, which makes me a sad panda...

    DMs, what´s your preparation-to-enjoyment ratio?

    DMs, what´s your preparation-to-enjoyment ratio? I´m asking because I recently found something out: When I prepare less, my players have more fun. Last week I prepared nothing and everyone had a blast (with basically an extended bar brawl ending with a burnt down tavern and the characters in...
