    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Cleave. Mmmmmmm.... my favourite flavour of Kobold. Let me think about it :) Heh. Maybe we should put it to the vote. What should be the Fourth Stat, and why?

    Should Prestige Classes be more powerful than Base Classes?

    I've say that prestige classes should be more powerful, but also more narrowly focused so it balances out.

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Hey Meepo & Thanee! I thought about giving Fighters something more, but couldn't decide what so left it as it is, figuring that carrying the biggest darn magic sword and heaviest armour would pick up the slack. And if I start adding stuff at different levels before you know it there'll be...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Yep, 8 hours of rest recovers all loss due to spell-casting. One of my players is pushing for getting half of it back if he rests for 4 hours, but I'm holding out on that one for now :)

    Kitchen Sink Settings

    I've played and GM'd both free and restrictive campaigns. If I'm picky, I prefer the restrictive ones as they have much more flavour and style. Y'know the ones where only Wood Elves from the F'larnyhym Forests are Rangers and only Fighters from ThatBigNothernTown use longswords. That said, I'm...

    Ever died from suffering an AoO?

    No, never. Don't use 'em.

    RANT: Attacks of Opportunity

    Amen, bro'! You sound like my kinda gamer. We took out AoO the same time we unanimously decided to ditch using miniatures. Yes, we tried 'em. And no, we didn't like it. The point that seems to be missed is that getting rid of the whole AoO fiasco doesn't mean that gameplay just becomes a...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I'd be inclined to go with a variation on this theme: Have a 1st level "Turn Undead" spell for Clerics where you roll Magic Attack bonus to turn, DC = critter's current Hit Points. That makes for cool tactical options - do we hit first to weaken it and turn later, or turn first? It's kinda cool...

    RANT: Attacks of Opportunity

    Justin, if just one person didn't understand the rules, that's one thing. The fact is that lots of people find AoO to be one of the biggest stumbling blocks in the game. Either lots of people are wrong to feel that way, or the rules are broken or (at best) badly worded. I vote the later. AoO...

    Loss of what 4 spells would change the game dramatically?

    Excellent points Victim, well said. Same goes for Purify Food and Water and Cure Disease too, I guess.

    Loss of what 4 spells would change the game dramatically?

    I thought about that one too, but I don't think it would have much repercussions if it disappeared, really. Folks would just asume that if it glowed, or banged, or was shiny, it was magic :) After all, Detect Magic is only useful to spell-casters. Cure spells help everyone.

    Loss of what 4 spells would change the game dramatically?

    Good question! I'd say: - Sleep and Magic Missile (because then 1st level arcane spell-casters would have to think!) - Raise Dead - All the Cure spells

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Excellent work Darrell, thanks :) Duely uploaded to http://home.greywulf.net/m20 The more I think about having Spells cost Hit Points = double spell level + 1, the more I like it. We'll be playtesting with that rule tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes. All the best,

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    True. I'll have to think more about that. The balance previously was just about right. Adding in more Hit Points turns spell-casters into taknukes! I'll leave is as STP+1d6/level for now though. Talking of which, another version is ready for download with all the rules on a single page...

    How long did your World's Largest Dungeon campaign last?

    It's still ongoing. Where's the poll box for that?

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I'm quoting myself now. Is this wrong, or just a sign of insanity? :) I've had an email from one of my players who's suggested an alternative to Hit Points. How about Hit Points = STR stat + half their the Level number, rounded down. So at level one, you get +0 HP. Al level 2, you get +1...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Darrell: hot darn. Your spell list is better than mine :) If you can add in durations to the .pdf, I'll pull mine and add yours instead. I could include GM stuff (rules for falling damage, travel distance, poison and a random dungeon generator, maybe) too. I've uploaded your equipment list...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I've been and gone and made Microlite20 both smaller, and bigger, all at the same time. Let me explain. Yesterday I was looking at Microlite20 and realize that I'm wasting a whole one-and-a-half pages! Holy Carp! I've duplicated the Monster rules in both the core and Monster pdfs, and there's...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Heh. I'm a firm believer in Occam's Razor, me. Draft Two of the Microlite20 Monster Manual is up , now with added Wyverns, Raptors, Animals, Insects and more! Ok, so there's just an entry each for Small Animals and Small Insects, but there are Advancement Roolz too for When You Need a Bigger...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Cool! I'll see what I can do. I might lose the Old Gold Dragon and Demilich and include the Wyvern and 'raptor because I love those. And spells will be the next project, promise! :)
