Er... to complexify further: we are the lawyery ones. Our PCs ain't. Carlota: "Justice?! You just dare come near me with a bloody Justice!" ... Now, can we get playing already? *bounce* *yibber* ... :)

Someone understands! At last ... :p

He is quite obviously mad. Because, of course, of all the DMs I've had yet, S'mon has been the best. :p Thus, mad men are better ... Er ... Wait. In fact I think I'll run away now. ;)

Cool name. :)

Now that is very obviously wise and true. ;)

The PCs in my Midnight game just decided to name themselves 'Jez's band', to honour a brave and much loved PC who died at the hand of a BBEG a couple of sessions ago. :cool: I'd suggest you look for a name that reflects something your party specifically has done, succeeded at or experienced...

Yup! :)

Exactly. Look at the initial poster's user name and think again about probabilities and credibility. ;)

My Midnight game has a bit of both - episodes provided by me, and overarching campaign goals determined by the PCs/players and supported by me. I run episodic scenarios extending over one or two game sessions on average. I'm also blessed with a group of fantastic proactive players who are...

Our party uses both divinations and tactical withdrawal ;) - by your standards we probably did well. And you're absolutely right, it's a matter of play style. If you happen to enjoy Gygax's style, you might be ok. (Alhtough additional problems might have been caused by the 3.0 conversion, not...

Can't move from its space, thanks. That's what I needed. If you let me know where that quote's from (3.5 SRD, hopefully?) I'll be happy.

By the spell description, a creature who's Webbed and fails their save is entangled and allowed 'no movement' until they break free passing a STR check. (That's 3.5, in case there's any difference to 3.0.) IMC I've ruled that this means 'can't move any distance', not 'can't take any action...

:D Pretty much what we did - although we did discuss it with S'mon and he wanted out as badly as everybody else did, so the decision was unanimous. We went back for a one-off rescue mission that was intended to be the end of Necropolis for us, and was taken on primarily to save one player's...

Hm. I've no more than skimmed Demon God's Fane, but it seemed a pretty solid scenario, certainly one that made sense plot-wise. Re Necropolis, S'mon will be able to tell you more than I could. From what I read of it and gathered from playing in it, there's way too much stuff in it that is...

Dunno how viable a water-elemental templated character will be in a protracted desert scenario btw, but I'm sure you have considered that already anyway. :)

It sounds like your intended starting level will be appropriate - if your players don't care whether a scenario is plausible and don't mind frequent character deaths to inescapable, over-the-top ECL encounters. I have to agree with S'mon - I bought Necropolis and considered running it for my...

Once a battle. Pretty unanimous vote, eh? :)

You could use a template. If you don't want them mindless, there are a couple of templates in Midnight - for one, basically keep class levels and abilities, change HD to d12, +3 natural armor, CR+1. Voilà, talking, thinking undead that hunger for your flesh. (And if fresh, might not be all...

He he I see now - facing house rules! Yeah, in that context my line of thought wouldn't make sense. I don't use facing. Personally I don't have problems with face-less representation on a battle grid, IME people in melee are always whirling and dodging and dancing around each other anyway...

Eminently cool. I'd love to play in that as a player! Of course if the enemy team were just too unconvincing, my PC might argue in favour of taking them down anyway and waiting for their big brothers to turn up ... :cool:
