    Setting Proposal: A Tail of Woe

    Looks like a great setting...almost exactly the same as my submission in fact :p...except mine wasn't in the jungle. I have no idea if that's a good thing (I put in something that someone else thought was good enough to submit) or a bad thing (people are submitting the same thing as me)...

    D&D for very young kids

    For someone really young I would use as basic a system as possible and focus more on the story/exploring. When i was running RPGs for kids younger than me i just used the old Fighting Fantasy rules (just skill and stamina with dice rolling, really basic combat) with a few additions and modifiers...

    What would happen if you put a sphere of annihilation in a bag of holding?

    I think the answer it's either nothing (see above) or the other standard answer when dealing with bags of holding acting up which is....massive explosion ;)

    Great villain idea (need some advice)

    Carnifex's idea is really good. I was going to suggest something similar about the big 'dark' but i didn't have the idea for the organisation there to stop it. That's really good. Also then they all have to be mortals because the deities are made up of the belief that has collapsed. you could...

    Look out, D20...here comes HYBRID!

    Wha??! I can't even make a comment relating to any part of it...just... Wha??! Even the disclaimer made no sense what so ever but was hilarious as he seems to be claiming to be a misunderstood genius. ie.... ----------- Would my rpg system be off-topic, just because you don't like or/and...

    Fighting Fantasy

    Yeah i've got the world book lying around going mouldy somewhere. I also have their surreal guide to this sort of LARP thing. Only they present it as making a movie or something and at times it seemed they wanted you to play with dice and just sit there and at others they suggested bringing...

    Bards and Elves

    I thought that elves should probably get sorcerer as favoured class but then i reasoned it through. Elves believe in art, in grace and in mastery. They believe in time producing things of worth and beauty and are deeply magical. Therefore they are wizards. They turn magic as a primal force...

    Worst RPG Ever?

    Your right it is quite fun, BUT it does say you should have a GM at one point and then thet person has nothing to do. I agree that those hack and slash board games are fun but there are better ones than that with far cheaper miniatures. PS. I thought Everway was quite good :p

    Fighting Fantasy

    The fighting fantasy books contained little in terms of rules so there isn't anything really to convert is there...except the mosters I guess. I used to read those books and played the version with a GM and players. If you wanted to play an adventure based around the lot of the book i would...

    Worst RPG Ever?

    I don't think you can even call it an RPG but it was meant to be one... WARHAMMER QUEST by games workshop that was the most dire thing in history, there was no story, generic random dungeons, all interaction with the out side world was done on dice rolls and the random encounters created so...

    Does any one else miss Planescape?

    I always loved PS, Its by far my favourite setting. Thats not to say that everyone shuld like it in the slightest, I mean I don't like dragon lance and that doesn't mean that it isn't very popular. I always loved things that are a bit surreal, not just fantasy but fantasy that doesn't seem to...

    MotP's Inevitables - ever used them?

    Well we used t have the Rilmanni but then they got removed...I always liked them though. If people were going by logic then they LN and CN characters would actually summon Slaadi and Formians (Modrons far better IMHO though :p) I always thought that the idea was that each plane being of an...

    What's so cool about the Manual of Planes?

    Planescape was always by far my favourite setting so I like anything on the planes because of that. However I agree with UD they did sort of manage to take the 'heart and soul' out of all the description and character in the planes IMHO. But it means that I have to do less work converting a...

    new demon - Black Venger (no relation to the D&D personage... ; )

    If it's supposed to be an assassin and so subtle and quiet then maybe it shouldn't summon anything too ostentatious...It would hardly be in spirit to sneak about everywhere then get near your enemy and summon a balor on them :D Looks great though...I love anything Planar, demons are great :)

    Hi!....I'm new :)

    Thanks for the help I think I'll try the equivalent option (ie. Both the Gold Dragon and Tien Lung have 41HD etc.) I could try the sage though...never tried that before.:)
