    What Will Become of the FLGS?

    What we need is protectionism for FLGS. Companies needs to offer special pricing deals that let your little shops meet and beat amazon prices, at least for core product. I routinely see the 5e core books on amazon, shipping free, for about what my store pays for them wholesale.

    Low Magic Alternatives: Full 20 level Class, The Scholar (alchemist fans, apply here)

    The intended gameplay is that whenever you take a long rest you produce an amount of items equal to your level plus int bonus. The guild then doesn't allow you to do this again until you've gone out and used them... this part is really sticky with no good way to write it that isn't ridiculous...

    Low Magic Alternatives: Full 20 level Class, The Scholar (alchemist fans, apply here)

    Well, in my continuing quest to strip enough magic out of dnd so that it feels like pulp fantasy, I have hit upon an alternative caster class to help fill the need for wizards, bards and healers. If you liked The Godsman, prepare to love.... Kind of like a cross between a warlock and an...

    D&D 5E (2014) Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    Whoo boy, my development of this project has been on the backburner while we played high and now low fantasy. The last revision I did was back in october. Alright, let me hit up some questions. The last thing I playtested: I find most feedback saying that players want on the ground action...

    5e 20 Level Divine Class: The Godsman

    I was really stuck on giving the godsman something competitive and cool at 6, when other classes are getting their neat toys. Continuing in the theme of "is this guy for real?", weather control seemed on point, but on reflection is a pretty high powered ability. I will iterate that some more...

    5e 20 Level Divine Class: The Godsman

    Recently I am running a low to no magic super gritty medieval style game, and as great as fighters, rogues, barbarians and spellless rangers are, I wanted a divine class. This led me to build a mostly spell-less cleric, the Godsman. The Flavor is campaign specific, but you generally get the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mind your Manors: A tool for managing your fief

    Glad you like it! If you have any questions or comments about operation, let me know, its just something I originally cobbled together for myself so there's a lot of inefficient junk in there that I might have missed.

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic item attunement, like-dislike?

    So far I have been really enjoying the limitations of attunement, especially in that it allows me to give out a bit more magical treasure than I otherwise would, knowing they can only use so many of them. I rarely hand out items that lack attunement nowadays. I think a few more attunement...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mind your Manors: A tool for managing your fief

    Let me know how it turns out! But keep in mind, this is more designed to model feudal income and obligations, with helpful pie charts so you know much you are squeezing from your peasants!

    D&D 5E (2014) Mind your Manors: A tool for managing your fief

    My campaign has recently taken a more feudal turn, and I dusted off my old resources and polished up my manor managing excel sheet. This is pulled heavily from expeditious retreats magical medieval work, with tweaks and automation. I figured someone else might have use of this, and put it up...

    D&D 5E (2014) Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    Unfortunately my group challenge rules didn't quite make it into the document I just uploaded, so here they are as well.

    D&D 5E (2014) Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    Alright here you go. I am in the process of a major edit for structure, as without the whole chapter of starship rules the thing sings lopsided now. Alternate Download site on Mediafire: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/b92nwlwcu98wm/Fifth_Age From previous version this edition contains...

    D&D 5E (2014) Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    Yes actually, this is still in development, I went back for rounds of extensive playtesting, and have added several new things, including a Robomancer specialization for Technician, an entire new class with two specializations, The Savage, and a background for primitives, and a new challenge...

    D&D 5E (2014) A case where the 'can try everything' dogma could be a problem

    The solution we found at the table is letting players collaborate on skill checks. Any players proficient in a skill contributes a d20 to the player leading the check, usually the one with the highest bonus, who rolls them all and keeps the highest. Players with no proficiency can attempt a...

    D&D 5E (2014) So what's exactly wrong with the fighter?

    Interestingly, I had this issue early on, and made my fighter variant far and away the best combat class in my sci-fi variant. To the point that no other class gets a second attack per round, except the fighter who can get up to three total attacks at the level cap of 10. So far in a skill...

    D&D 5E (2014) Fifth Age: A hard science fiction 5e conversion

    By the by, there have been delays of my writing, but I have been delving deeper in playtest. The space combat rules feel solid, but I am getting feedback that the spaceship construction rules are overly complex, which is especially true for a 5e style game. I am considering cutting the...
