    Forked Thread: Alternatives to mountains of hit points

    This is exactly what I was going to bring up in the other thread when I saw this.

    Anti-D&D Sermon

    Regardless of what the sermon says - its pretty much impossible for this not to violate the "no religion" rule, so I'm shutting it down. - Kid Charlemagne, ENWorld Mod

    New Front Page Icons

    Incidentally, when I mentioned the size on the Wiki icon being small, I meant on the smaller icon versions at the top of the forum page - on the front page they look great. I concur that the red back ground thing is kind of annoying, and a good point was made in regard to folks who might be...

    Minimum King/Queen entourage

    Also, keep in mind that clerics are great for what they can do - but a King might rightly worry about their priorities. A cleric by definition serves a higher power than a king, so a king might be hesitant to place too much trust in them. Think of Cardinal Richelieu and King Louis in the Three...

    New Front Page Icons

    The Icons are very nice - my only complaint is that the text is a little small on a couple - the "wiki" one in particular is tough to read. I don't know if thats a function of the specific characters being harder to read, or if the font size is slightly smaller.

    The Qullan lives!

    Neville? You think you know someone and then you find out their name is Neville! Incidentally, the shadow demon is also credited to Neville White, so that must be our Plane Sailing!

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder page count change

    Let's keep the posting here on topic - Jack99's post may or may not have been a dig (and if it was, cut it out) but the continued discussion of it could derail the thread, and won't really accomplish anything anyway. Thanks! Kid Charlemagne, friendly neighborhood Mod.

    OOTS 627 is up

    The dragon in those strips does refer to its mother, IIRC.

    Rant -- GM Control, Taking it Too Far?

    As a DM, if a player is unwilling to work with me, they're gone. I've got more players than I know what to do with, and I do try to maintain a consistent tone in the game. If they're not interested in the kind of game that I run (and I'm upfront on that, and ask for suggestions and feedback...

    Rant -- GM Control, Taking it Too Far?

    Its hard to say exactly without knowing what your suggested background was, but one of the big missteps I see in PC backgrounds is the PC being 1st level, but their background indicates practically an epic level story already. That's what game play is for. I've given suggestions to players...

    What the Dorruh are you doing to my Eberron?

    Let's keep it civil, folks. It's fine to disagree with the direction of the change, but when it starts toeing the line to insults, that's where we draw the line. -Kid Charlemagne, ENWorld Mod

    Creating classic rivalries

    Babylon 5 had some great recurring villains and rivalries - there are some lessons to be learned there about how to nurture them. First off, the setting is political - rivals like G'Kar and Londo were expected to interact and talk about their issues. Their respective peoples were killing each...

    Creating classic rivalries

    Good suggestions - my only extra advice is "don't push it." Let the rivalries develop naturally. You can send any number of NPC's at the PC's with the idea that they might make good rivals, but it'll e up to the players who they respond to, and up to the situation who manages to escape to...

    Eliminating Eastern Flavor From D&D?

    Back on the topic of the OP - there are some classes in the complete books that would need to be outlawed - kensai, samurai, etc. A handful of martial arts and ki-related feats in those same books. A few Forgotten Realms books also have eastern-flavored classes and feats. I think Rechan makes...

    Ebay Auction: DUNGEON Magazine Collection (113 issues)

    You should put this on the ENWorld Marketplace: EN Marketplace - EN World D&D / RPG News as this is not really the correct forum for this!

    Iterative Attacks

    Bucket loads of dice are fun - especially for damage (soem people are hopeless when it comes to adding them up, though). For a rogue, they won't get as many iterative attacks so I wouldn't think it would be as big of a deal as it is for a fighter...

    Naval Combat System Suggestions?

    That's how you can structure it - 0-3 failures meaning they deal with 1, 2, or all 3 ships at once... but they still have to deal with all the ships. You can get the Skill Challenge done relatively quickly, and then move on to the combats between the ships.

    Naval Combat System Suggestions?

    The Corsair sailing rules are much simpler than Broadsides! (I have both) but are designed for a more "Age of Sail" setting. They do have a fantasy-directed appendix however. For 4E I like the idea of treating it as a Skill Challenge.
