My advice: 1) Keep it simple. Dont use fancy features and stuff for your first game 2) Keep it simple. Never ever ever draw maps. There are 9 million+ maps out there that you can steal. Do it. 3) Keep it simple. If you cant figure out how to do something on the virtual desktop just do it on the...

5 out of 5 rating for Fantasy AGE Core Rulebook A very nice rule system, and one that lends itself well to be tweaked for different settings. The character creation is based around race, background and class. Available classes and backgrounds are what you would expect. The magic system is...

Yeah, pretty much. The fully bookmarked high quality pdf has been available since BEFORE the the physical books where available where I live. If they were released legally I would buy them because I don't like pirated content. Why WotC adamatly refuses to take my money is... cursious.

Fair enough. No hard feelings. That paladin would be stripped of his powers and looking for attonement in an instant at my table. Maybe let the poor chap die and make the paladin seek out the bandits family and help them out with an old family curse to attone for his crimes? Not humorous, but...

I DM more or less every week for the last 30 years or so. It is just that perverse torture-hobos would find little enjoyment at my table. Karma, you know, cause and effect, all that. No-one at my table would enjoy a tale about extended and grotesque torture of a defenseless victim. Out of...

How disgusting. Just let him die. Next combat up the opposition 10 times. Capture the PCs. Spend the next session giving them absolutely impossible tests to try to escape or plead for their lives. Then execute them in a slow, painful and disgusting way. That is what I would do.

Just want to +1 this. A good old "I attack" is PERFECT role-playing in combat if that is what your character would do. "I try to stop the bleeding" or "I stagger back into the darkness" are other good examples because they express your character through WHAT he does not HOW he does it. "I jump...

I had the unfortune to play with one of these at an online hotdq table. Ruined the game for everyone. Kick. Kick. Kick. Never look back. Life is too short to play with arrogant pos cheaters. Did I mention you should kick his sorry arse?

Please dont give them ideas. Everytime they "update" anything it becomes much much worse than it was. One more round of "improvements" and the entire site is reduced to one cyclic dropdown menu where all clicks leads back to one of the previous levels. The ultimate, nightmarish, Kafka:istic...

One possibility: Add up advantages - disadvantages. Result: -3 or less: Double disadvantage -1 to -2: Disadvantage 0: Roll normally +1 to +2: Advantage +3 or more: Double advantage

I just reveal. I grew weary of "trial and error" two decades ago, and identify spells shortly after. I don't put time and effort into making cool magical items for my PCs to NOT discover their properties.

All flumphs are silent. Except the noisy ones obviously.

I guess I could. But if it is not even considered an option by the dev team I don't think it would matter much if I did.

Warlord not on the list :(

What Lancelot said. The game fully supports this concept: Battlemaster Fighter with Criminal background. Viola. Don't get hung up on names. Use the tools available to build the characters you want.

I feel the need to point out that bear totem does not do anything even close to doubling hp. It only adds resistance to magic damage. All barbs get resistance to weapon damage, which even at high levels is the majority of damage.

Sorry, cant really help you. You description of 5e is fairly accurate. It sports a fast combat resolution system that works quite well and a basic mechanic of ability+(proficiency)+d20>DC. Everything else, including things like a functional economy and meaningful downtime activities is left to...

In terms of playability it certainly did.

In my experience the quiet players are not the problem. The players who never shut up are. If only 2/4 players at your table are talking I would look carefully into these players behaviour rather than assuming that the quiet players are not interested. I have no social anxiety (in fact quite...

The teenage(?) drama in this thread is delicious. OP: Please come back. We want moar!
