    Desert Island RPG

    Pick five, ouch: 1. 3.5e Player's Handbook 2. Vampire the Masquerade Revised 3. Transhuman Space 4. Ars Magica 5. Call of Cthulhu the Anniversary Edition And given the book choices I would pick you Chris Pramas, then I could substitute #5 for Hero 5th Edition, the even bigger black book...

    Wizards aiming younger audience

    If wizards really want to aim at children they just have to not lead them as much. They'll hit them everytime. Other than the poor attempt at remixing Full Metal Jacket, I like the product and our hobby will gray and die if we don't find ways to reach out to kids (I know I gray more with each...

    Differences between Mongoose RQ I and II

    There doesn't seem to be an SRD for Runequest II, I don't think many people jumped on the license anyway.

    The difference between Ad&d 1st and 2nd edition?

    Yep, just missed that one, you won't catch the other one I made because I fixed it. I forgot the big one, almost all classes had level titles that they were supposed to use instead of the class name. And alignment languages were eliminated in 2nd Edition.

    The difference between Ad&d 1st and 2nd edition?

    Changes Races The Half-orc was taken out of the corebook, but was given an entry in the Monstrous Manual I. It was placed back in the game in the Book of Humanoids and Skills & Powers Classes Classes in 1st Edition were organized with classes and subclasses. The classes were Cleric, Fighter...

    D20 Wealth bonus in The Great Depression

    When used as an indicator of wealth and privilege it works in any era, and it still eliminates the headaches of "how much does this cost?" or "do I really have to pay 50 gp/month/level of maintenance?" Noble families with castles, heirloom weapons, and fields tended by peasants could easily use...

    'Ask Ryan about In A Wicked Age !

    And your "All too Human"? Sorry, if it looks like I'm asking dumb questions, I know how you feel. In the early days of d20 when I made my web conversions I had a lot of people e-mail me questions (and a few people wanting me to scan and send them free stuff from my gaming library).

    'Ask Ryan about In A Wicked Age !

    Can you give me a little bit more of a breakdown of the Oracles? I mean Blood & Sex and the others are self-descriptive, but I would like to see in more detail what each of them mean.

    'Ask Ryan about In A Wicked Age !

    So what is the composition of the "All Too Human" Oracle. Do you have it in .txt, .pdf, or .doc format? And could I do this with the random adventure sheets from d20 sources (Dungeon Master's Guide, Races of the Wild, Races of Stone, Complete Mage, and Epic Level Handbook and for non-canon the...

    Yeah I'm an educator, so I tend to ask complicated questions.

    'Ask Ryan about In A Wicked Age !

    Somebody beat me to it. Drat! Can you explain the Owe list a little more, the rules just don't seem to be that awfully clear. Anyway, why can't you mix up the Oracles and just mix the results? Could you use the owe list to allow drawer's choice. I've also found in most games, if the party...

    Away a while - what's the situation?

    Forget d20. Now Ryan, why is it important to choose a single oracle? Couldn't you mix the oracles for your choices and try to make a story from there? Say do player's choice? And if you did that would you use the owe list to allow them to change the Oracle?

    Away a while - what's the situation?

    I did the test interview for an Oral History project and I couldn't believe how many times I used vocal fillers. I memorized the Japanese vocal fillers to keep from losing points on my Japanese Oral Exams, but I still had a lot of them.

    Poker Hands & d20 System Effects

    I just used numerical values, inspired from the SAGA system (not Star Wars) and Deadlands. You draw two cards and added their values together. Jokers were 0.5, Jacks were 4, Queens were 5, and Kings were 6. The trump suites were: Strength, Constitution: Clubs Dexterity: Spades...

    Away a while - what's the situation?

    After hearing your podcast on "In a Wicked Age" I heard: 1) No prep 2) atactical 3) strongly story oriented and went SOLD! and bought a copy and posted the show on Facebook. I'm just waiting on the .pdf link right now.
