I see why you do this, we addressed the same problem (though differently) of casters running OOM. The version you did COULD - depending on playstyle - have the problem to weaken Casters if encounters are balanced around it (in our group for example we have a Ranger-Barbarian with Strength belt...

>My "Unearthed Arcana" is, essentially, my Houserule manual for the World of Orea campaign setting. Proves again that everyone's tastes are different. Dice-on-Character creation we do not use at all. Pure 27-point-system. No gnomes, no Centaurs (or other strange like them). Sprites die on first...

Moved to the german RPG System Midgard years ago. Then, when the system broke for the powergaming of one player (and also the age of the system showed and we had to use tons of houserules eventually), one had the idea to move to D&D 4e "where everything is in strict rules/balancing". Little did...

- Saving Throws of Enemies will be rolled by the players (with DC-12, they work into the "other direction", mathematically this results in the same) - Only Players: Deal +50% Dmg on a Crit Spell, Players+Enemies: No Damage at all on a natural 20 on a Save - Shield Spell: Only works on the...

Hi! Is it possible to modify some of the Data? While I myselves use HeroLab the other people in our group prefer to use "non-HeroLab" (they don't like how Hero Lab looks and how the GUI works) and ForgedAnvil generator would be really nice for them. The problem: We have two houserules which I...

Hehe, you are right on that. I meant less about trademark, but that Midgard (at least over here) is a pretty well-known RPG system (after all, it is one of the first RPG systems ;-) ). Despite that thinking about doing a pledge for this "second" Midgard for 5e, sounds pretty interesting!

Hmmm... are they aware that regarding RPG the name Midgard is already taken? Midgard is the oldest german RPG system (over 25 years old, not D&D bases, but an own system, its default campaign actually basing on a tabletop hame a year or such older than D&D, Midgard 5th edition - not related to...

DM'ed the Hoard of the Dragon Queen halfways through, with massive changes (The names for one thing - and also a lot of story elements, to make it more interesting). In the end found out it doesn't really fit our playstyle (this whole Reputation thing doesn't really fit our playstyle, I for...

This Anti-Roleplaying-Movement in the US due to "it makes people kill" still sounds strange to me (as a European). We never had something like that over here (at least when I played D&D in the 80s I never noticed anything like it here). Roleplaying Games were not popular with parents either...

About the Character Options. At our table we liked most of them, with some exceptions: - Circle of the Fang is very weak. Only at very high levels it gets interesting (levels where we usually start a new group), while the elemental option of the Moon-Druid is MUCH stronger. The idea to make...

Is there any new Character options (Spells, Subclasses, Subraces, Feats, Magic Items,...) in it or "just" the campaign?

We had the problem that with no flanking rule getting "overwhelmed" was in no way punished which felt "unnatural". With the Advantage on Flanking Advantage was too easy, and other stuff was "taken out". Also Flanking rule tended to lead to the "dance around the mob" to be in EXACT opposite...

Ah. In German that's "Bierkrug" ;-)

Why a drinking rune? "Stein" is the german (and appearently also norse, if I got one of the other comments right???) word for the english word "Rock".

About the name - at least at my table people Would ignore the name and call them psionics as thats what they are. Always happens when You give something known (if from earlier Editions or some other source) a different Name. Had once a series of adventures which Dealt about a powerful magic...

My own experience is that "jokes" in the prepared adventure throw my players EXTREMELY out of the game-world. My players have an extreme requirement that everything "fits into the world". This does not make them humorless. There are a lot of funny stuffs happening at the game table, initiated by...

Well different tables, different opinions. At my table people think it is one of the golden rules of dming of never directly negating a players action. When sometimes a new dm did this it always gave him harsh critics after the game (Especially by players who are exp gms themselves ).

a character (with the wand) restricting an enemy And the gm then saying “i dispel it“ is an extremely un-fun Mechanics. A Break Save per round or as action is mich Better. It is never good to negate a characters action without Roll. The player tends to think he “did Nothing“ then. My opinion At...

Asides from the questionable style of characters Shooting blobs of goo I think a DC would Need to be comparable to other restricting Spells - like the DC of a lvl-appropriate Enemy. Dc 13-15 is what such stuff ususlly gets. And indistructable goo has a believability issue for Me. Dont care about...

Actually Realms Work is not a VTT, it is a system for GM preparation and for presenting data to the players between sessions, mainly (with an interface to Hero Lab which is a character editor with printout-facility). But that images will be included sounds great, so one could do something...
