    The D&D economy, how much gold do my players earn?

    The quick, not particularly useful answer is: As much as you want to give them. I believe the last time I had this situation I was doing about 5gp per person per year in taxes, and then intermittent payments in mithril, amythest and cash from the mines. You should at least make it so that...

    On WotC's "Surge"

    Barnes and Noble rates pathfinder at 16851th, and the 4e PHB1 at 35597th. red box is 33688th Not telling how much actual difference that is, or over what period the rating is, but I still find it compelling that D&D isnt higher no matter what the conditions. Not conclusive, but it is some...

    Magic's system...for magic system

    I think an aspected magic based RPG could be really cool. Very abuseable if not done right, but cool. Heck, if you use M:TG as the baseline, the fluff writes itself. In reams... Figuring how to incorporate the magic system without having it completely dominate the game would be a pain tho.

    A Respect Scenario To Consider

    I would give him an impromptu lession in interparty civility at the next convienent time. Should he survive the fall, and realize that pulling the weapon was a bad idea, then the issue would be settled. I would be calling him Julian tho... If I even had a hint that it wasnt over at that...

    Why I don't like alignment in fantasy RPGs

    I dont think anyone would think that a mugging is lawful. I dont think anyone would think attacking a city because they wont take some refugees is good. Which are both things that came up in the thread that inspired this one. Believe it or not, there is a reason he is called a Dungeon...

    3.5e Module Train Wreck / Opinion Thread

    Really? Your description does not match the quote from the OP No, not really. All they did was mug someone they thought might be an imposter. Not only that but they did mug him. Stole something and left him on the side of the road. Wether it is an attack or not, it certainly wasnt lawful...

    3.5e Module Train Wreck / Opinion Thread

    How about not throwing a hissy fit and insulting all the guards you are trying to get past, or just taking the refugees to where the city they are trying to get into sent its noncombatants? Seeing as Az005 both had an NPC officer try to mediate the arguement between the guards and the party, and...

    The Role of the Wizard, or "How Come Billy Gets to Create a Demiplane?"

    The main fallacy in this whole thread is that narrative power come from the end of a spell. It comes from the player and what the player can do. The last campaign I played and finished had the fighter: Crown a King (without getting paid first!!!) Create a country Wrestled a were-tiger in half...

    Maybe I don't understand the problem...

    5 and 6 That would be at least half the problems I see on this board

    Class Compendium: Gone?

    There should not be less product put out for D&D than for Rogue Trader

    Is it time for 5E?

    Until WOTC learns from its mistakes, no time is a good time for 5e.

    Is D&D (WotC) flaming out?

    I think the point is that while 3e was very mechanically different from 2e, the base assumptions were still pretty much the same. While saving throws changed, there were still saving throws. While the AC progression inverted, and the to hit changed, they were still mostly the same progressions...

    Is D&D (WotC) flaming out?

    I think it is even worse than what you have here. Breaking with the prior editions did not fix any problems, it just created a whole new set of problems. Now after a couple years, instead of fixing the problems (like say dual-stat classes) they go and make another break, and we will see another...

    Is D&D (WotC) flaming out?

    There are quite a few of us who have been saying all along that all we wanted was the old rules fixed. Getting another set of error prone rules that are not well thought out just dosent do anything for me.

    OMG... you aren't *HUMAN*!!!

    To me, good party concept trumps almost all. If the players wanted to be a group of tiefling rogues, muggers and con men who end up saving the world, I would try to make a campaign around that, even if I had to modify what I was planning. I will also generally allow the character to pick what...

    [Star Wars] Somebody bought the license

    Since talking about the merits of Saga is a bit off topic.... I personally dont want FFG to pick up the license. Trying to do Star Wars would either mean: To little support for Star Wars to do the game justice or To little support for Rogue Trader to do the game justice Either way, I...

    Stats Below 8

    It is a problem with a point buy system that having a very low stat becomes a way to increase a different stat instead of a real handicap. Were it my game, a player who wanted to have a very low stat would have to give me a good in-game roleplaying reason for it, and I would probably let it...

    So, how many are avoiding Essentials?

    Personally, I am not interested in Essentials. It may just really be more for D&D, but since I think that D&D needs more options the same way I need more holes in my head, I am not going to bother. Add on top of that the monthly random rules change that has been going on in the CB updates, and I...

    Wow, do I hate rolling for stats!

    Am I the only one here who can figure out that when one player has a total bonus of eleventy billion and another has a bonus of +0.0000001 that maybe a little balancing is in order? Personally, I prefer to roll for stats. Mostly cause I usually dont have a real good handle on the character I...
