    What is TPK and IRRLC?

    I have bookmarked this: WotC Dictionary of Terminology. Covers most every acronym I've come across on gaming boards plus a plethora of gaming terms and vernacular.

    how hard do you make the game for your players (for DMs)

    Kill 'em all! That's how I voted because I'm sure that's what my players would think my vote would be. My players pick their own fights but there's always some big nasty waiting to be picked. My vote would have definitely gone to "I beat them to a pulp but generally leave them at least breathing...

    Anyone else moving away from D20?

    Feh! I ran 3e for well over a year and just got fed up with it. I'm set to run a couple of 1e campaigns, one on-line and one tabletop. I'll be running Hackmaster at my FLGS soon. I co-DM an Exalted campaign online and I've been invited to play in a Shadowrun game that I'm looking forward to...

    Anti-munchkin rules?

    Don't play 3e. You don't want "munchkins"? You can ask your players not to "munchkinize" or you can use another system. You can't rule 0 it away in 3e, IMHO.

    Am I being a nice DM, hitting PCs when they are down

    Depends on the enemy. I recently had an ettin who was absolutely determined to tear the dwarf into itty-bitty pieces. He died because of it. He could very well have killed the whole party, he just wasn't bright enough to see past his hatred. A powerful hungry animal? Munch time! An intelligent...

    [Partial OT] The Monte Cook Ranger

    Rangers: A ranger does not have any automatic two-weapon proficiencies. He takes weapon specialization as a fighter and gains a bonus feat every 4 levels starting at 2nd (half as fast as a normal fighter due to wilderness studies). He has no favored enemies (except as a possible personal quirk)...

    How Prevalent Are Prestige Classes in Your Game?

    Nada, zero, zip, none. Don't allow them.

    A simple statistical probabilities question

    I'll reply to this before it floats off of page one. Fifty ENWorlders have looked at and I guess that's enough to test the veracity of your answer S'mon. Thanks for the help. Actually, I thought that was the likely answer but it's been 25 years since my stats class and I haven't used it a lick...

    Help Roleplaying......

    DarkJester, I think this link to one of the pages of "Revenge of the Gamer Chick" is just what you need. Check out the rest of her site, too. It's pretty nifty. Have fun. :D PS: I just checked out the link with the post preview function and it brings up the right page but it doesn't link...

    How old are you, you gaming, internet savvy person?

    I'll say! Can you believe what these young vidiots have done to our game, scadgrad? Ludicrous! :p

    A simple statistical probabilities question

    I suppose if it were that simple, I'd be able to answer it myself. So, calling any math whiz out there, am I more likely to roll a 00 on d% or 2 20's on 2 successive rolls of a d20? What is the probability of each occurrence? Figure this is an almost in yer head problem for someone who works...

    What kind of variant magic systems do you all use?

    There are no sorcerers IMC. The way I run my wizards makes the sorcerer class superfulous. Here are wizards IMC: Wizards: Wizards are automatically literate in draconic, the language of magic. Mana: A wizard utilizes mana to cast spells. The amount of initial mana is equal to Int + Dex...

    Classless D&D (skills-based)

    What? No one has anything to contribute to this effort? What I envision is for a player to be able to build a "person" from the ground up. No limitations to growth except what's "realistic." For instance, in my mind, it takes years of dedication, study and practice to learn the arcane arts...

    Chacters that hate other characters

    Conflict? What conflict? I once played a half-orc cleric/assassin in a long term campaign. It was a core party of four and one of the PCs possessed the Hand of Vecna and another the Eye. We all got along just peachy! :rolleyes: I assassinated (planned and planned and planned) the higher level...

    Classless D&D (skills-based)

    Meaner, leaner thinking Started thinking about this again the other day and figured I'd post a document I titled "Notes." That's all they are really, but it does demonstrate a distillation of my original concept. The first half is really a jumble, but the second, I think, represents a possible...
