    D&D 4E Social interactions in 4E

    I understand the preferences voiced here. I still believe that rules for social combat will just bog down the game... i.e. will become the equivalent of social grappling. Do we really want to halt play while we turn to pages of a book to decide how to resolve a social interaction? I don't...

    D&D 3.x 3E/4E Data

    Here's what I want for 4E. I would like to have all the game data available and tracked in a massive, clean database. I would like the database to be a living growing thing that can be revised over time eliminating the need for new editions...ever. I would even be willing to pay a modest...

    D&D 4E Social interactions in 4E

    Why wouldn't social interactions be handled through...oh, I dunno...good role-play? I'm not replacing role-playing for die rolls in my campaigns. I don't care what rules they write for it.

    Are you a 3.5e grognard? Post here!

    D&D is my game. I'll be playing it in whatever form pleases me. I have been through every edition of the game and the content of each has been both augmented and deflated. The new edition will be no different. My plan for today is to stay put and add things I like back into my 3E game from...

    SRD monsters in the new statblock format

    Wow. The rules for aerial combat seem to have been taken completely out of 3E. I thought it was strange and still do. Of course my assumptions are based on rules that are no longer in the Dungeon Master's Guide. In 2E when an aerial creature takes 2/3 of it's HP in damage it can no longer...

    SRD monsters in the new statblock format

    Yes, you're correct. Thanks for the clarification. In the case of calculating a dragon's skills, it's never really going to come into play then, assuming the standard stats. White dragons have the lowest intelligence bonus (-2) so they'll never adjust the base to zero or below. Thanks again...

    SRD monsters in the new statblock format

    Thanks Thanks for the information but I can't say I agree. Jump doesn't concern me, but ranks in climb do. It sort of confounds me that a wyrming with no ranks in climb could die from a 60' fall simply on a bad climb roll. It seems to me that dragons would be natural climbers but no where is...

    SRD monsters in the new statblock format

    Hmm, according to the SRD dragons always max out Listen, Search, and Spot at max possible ranks. Here's how I've started... I've calculated 49 skill points for a black dragon wyrmling: (6+Int OR minimum of 1)*(HD+3) --> (6+1)*(4+3) --> (7)*(7) = 49 skill points Also, I've determined that the...

    SRD monsters in the new statblock format

    Dragons SBF Okay I have been working over the last two weeks on getting dragons in the new stat block format. I'm now down to skill selections. I'm doing better at picking expletives for Wizards of the Coast than skills...but that's another show. In any case could someone please take a look...
