You don't need to be "hardcore" to know these things, look at your character sheet! Every skill tells you what abilities are used with them. It says what ability goes with what save on it. How many feats do you have that you can't remember what needs a minimum ability? Even a casual gamer...

Actually, every complaint we've heard has been "math is hard." Look up? What are you looking up? Don't you know what skills and saves are affected by what stats? Don't you know what maximum spell level is allowed by your relevant ability? Don't you know what the ability requirements for...

I've never had any of these problems people talk about nor have I ever gamed with anyone who had these problems. If you lose strength it affects your attack, damage, skill rolls and encumbrance. The only one of those things you need to look up is encumbrance, and only if you're close to your...

I play Basil Paledouris during fight sequences.

I might be interested; is it pbp, chat, or other?

I would.

Well, if I was going to run something like that the campaign would culminate in defeating the cultists in the Temple in a way that destroys the party as well as the enemies. To assuage player anger I would let them know that I was planning on starting a new campaign set 20 years later when this...

What an awesome idea! Wish I could play in that campaign. It completes the Temple of Elemental Evil Trilogy. Do your players come to this site?

The Conan RPG is the best d20 game hands down, though I like Midnight's magic system better. As for supplements, Stone to Steel, The Book of the Righteous, and Starships of the Galaxy were all great.

I like a lot about Ars Magica, but overall I think it's too easy to abuse. If I had to pick a magic system as is I'd go with AD&D, preferably with the options in Spells & Magic.

I find the weapon groups grant the best of both worlds (2e/3e). I'm thinking of making a group one proficiency slot and specialzation another slot.

Fantasy: Either E6 or AD&D 2e set in Mythic Europe. Sci-Fi: Star*Drive Alternity Setting.

I'm fine with board games as long as it doesn't replace the rpg.

In my games the characters are heroes in all sense of the word.

When 3e came out my friends and I rushed out to buy it and played our first session from Friday night to Sunday night. We had it in our heads that rogues could flank with ranged weapons and our two rogues tore everything to pieces with sneak attacks from a safe distance.

I've done something similar in the past. I dropped iterative attacks completely and gave a +1 to the crit range of all weapons wielded for every attack lost.

I liked the 2e system, though I don't like how few slots characters get. I'd also prefer it used the Alternity Ordinary/Good/Amazing success levels.

No. Best I ever got was a 96. And this should be a poll.

The sooner you bounce them the better. In 22 years of gaming I've never seen one disruptive player change.
