I have started two boards for Gathis Live on Mayhem Gaming. I will start one board here that will combine 2e and 3.5 because I expect most of the board traffic to happen on mayhem for this as far as mustering the games and creating interest. Everyone is able to play. Places will vary so one...

Recruiting is now closed

Definitely OpenRPG desite teh poll being closed.

I think the party would be fine, there are six of them. i had a white dragon go against 4 characters and they survived. Those 4 were at full strength and the White Dragon is a level 3, but beside that there are six in this group and the dragon is a level 4. The characters in my game were...

I'm an exclusive on line player and I think powers has had its effects on online play, but not really the ones desired. Speaking soley from the mindane apsect of being a player powers add alot of work to the game. In older editions you might have played a wizard and you realized ther was...

OD&D - simplicity of what are dubbed in 3.5 as paragon classes BECMI - cannot speak for this edition 1E - class expansion to things like monks, cavaliers and so on; more options 2E - realtive ease and flow of combat and play 3E - oceans of splat books and the real freedom of character building...

If you can sell to a broad audience, why limit yourselves to just 4e enthusiasts?

Rather than a rift i think the new edition has caused alot of attention to come o gaming in general. True, 3e caters to one market of player since it has few limits and many options where as 4e has a more structured character creation system and development. The two editions cater to different...

Wealth is my biggest problem with d20 modern. In terms of story alone its very cool and meaningful to find a briefcase full of cash or credits that are worth something, or even a chest full of bars of gold. But opening a briefcase and seeing a power up for a +2 wealth bonus, well that's lame...

I really haven't heard anything though there are nice builds for NWoD. Promethean builds are fairly nasty in combat for instance. You mix a high strength with martial arts styles and a high weaponry score. Then add in the fact that you take bashing damage from mostly everything, don't take...

All I can say is we had a PbP group frustrated with the boards at gleemax join our group, which I am glad for. Keep up the good work gleemax :)

In my 2e gathis campaign (www.gathis.com) I am taking evry opportunity to use all the bullywugs, osquips, winged snakes and other lost 2e classics that I can. Its been a great time so far. It helps that they are in a very old forest with an old forest with undead themes. I plan to exploit...

I have kids and my wife hates gaming, lol. I mostly game online to alleviate these problems as getting out of the house for alot of gaming can be difficult.

Being assertive about your game is good advice. It is true if you take on a problem player its going to make more problems than if you simply turn him away, however this guy could be a great addition to your group, you simply don't know yet. You should remain in control of all things with...

When I had a local store I bought alot of magic cards from them and participated in a couple small convenstions and such. I never much gamed in the store but they really didnt offer it then or even do anything to attract anyone to run games. The owners had their own cliche whihc they stuck to...

I did look in th rules compendium on his. It was sketchy at best but i think the possibility of denying a dex mod to the save was mentioned. On another note, I seem to remember in older editions like 1st and 2nd that a breath weapon save was explained as getting out of the way or hiding behind...

If your prone and a dragon breathes fire on you, do you still get a reflex save? I looked this up in the rules compendium and it seems to be a rule that is subject to at least some interpretation so I was interested to see what anyone thought of this?
