That's an interesting idea. I'll think about that for a bit. :) True true. I did weigh the various options in the costs. One version I had used the highest bonus that the weapon had... so adding flaming to the +2/+3 weapon would have a +18000 cost, since the damage bonus is +3, however in...

hmmm... no comments? The system can't be perfect.... anyone have any ideas for improvement or any questions about it? :)

That's not too bad. You might want to give a bonus to some other skills for Low Class, but a penalty to starting money. Survival might be a good one... Also, giving a bonus to starting money for Nobility and High Nobility... say an extra 100gp, and for nobility an extra 500gp (maybe...

Oh, it turns out the armor part of the system is still in development, but it would work along the same lines, with the armor having AC bonuses or reduced armor check penalties or both.

Okie doke... I posted those Masterwork Weapon rules in their own thread since it's pretty long... you can check it out here: http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=103505 cheers. :)

There were a few people in brehobit's "low magic ideas" thread that were interested in this system of mine, so I thought I'd post it out here for everyone to see... let me know what you think. Masterwork weapons This is a system for advanced masterwork weapons. The longer lived races...

If my website was up and running, I'd post about my masterwork weapons and armor systems, which can replace magic weapons and armor for a low-magic game. If you're interested, let me know and I'll see what I can dig up on my harddrive for it.

I think Legends was the best series of them all. I liked the original Chronicles though (and I'm running a Chronicles campaign, with the original characters). What I didn't like is all the other series based on them... it just got kinda tired after awhile... the only ones I liked where the...

I agree. My wife and I play a Githzerai and Githyanki in one game and whereas there's lots of info on Githyanki we can hardly find anything about Githzerai. We have to go back to the old 2e Planes of Chaos set for that (and I can't even find one of those for a reasonable price. =P ) I'd love...

hehe... wow. I've been playing D&D since '78, and I'VE never heard of that adventure. lol.

Actually, I can't really say why I like the Githyanki so much. I mean, they're evil, and I never play evil, in fact, paladins and rangers have always been my favourite classes... but I don't know... somethin' about them. Maybe it's the fact that they're a slave race who rose up to decimate the...

I think from the sounds of it, the main invasion broke up into smaller conflicts. I can't see the Githyanki really giving up completely, but maybe this is a setup to get them more involved in the Material plane, perhaps even becoming more permanent residents. I can't see it continuing much...

It's funny you should mention invasion, since that's exactly what the whole Githyanki thing is all about. :) It's "The Incursion". The Githyanki Lich-Queen has desided that she wants to conquer the Prime Material plane and has started to send her troops through the planar gates. It crossed over...

I'm playing a Githyanki fighter over on a dndadventure.com OLG. My wife, in the same game, is playing a Githzerai monk. We've got a little agreement between our characters not to kill each other until we've found a way back to our respective planes. Basically, we're equal level and fairly well...

:D hehehe. I've been thinking of something like this for my campaign, but my first thought was to have the wizard's staff or wand be like the cleric's holy symbol, so it's necessary for all spellcasting, and would take the place of many material components. Adding this little ability is quite...

Yeah, I see your point about the higher level casters. I kinda thought that myself. Still, I like your progression. My way gave too high of a minimum damage. However, maybe without the progression is best. This could be something that the wizard can just fall back onto in higher levels, but is...

Hmm... that's pretty good... however, I'm not sure something of this nature would vary in damage based on size. I realize a small-sized crossbow does less damage than a medium sized, but this attack is still using magic, as opposed to actual physical ammunition. I don't think that a small wizard...

I like Ranger's version too... however, I still think that making it rely on a focus would be best. You can take away the weapons that this ability is meant to replace, but in it's present form, this is something permanent that can never be removed. I think *that's* the point that unbalances it...

It's an interesting idea. I would definitely make it depend on a focus though... a specific staff or wand that never runs out of charges, but that must be specially prepared by the wizard if that wand or staff is lost, stolen or destroyed... or you can buy one from the local mage guild or...

The campaign world I'm designing is going to have specialist wizards being manditory, with sorcerers taking up the slack of the "generalized wizard".
