    D&D General PC Death: How do You Handle It?

    We handle it variously depending on the campaign and the situation and how we feel about our characters. In a 5e campaign, I lost two characters and everyone else lost one. This all happened at low levels so we didn't have the resources to raise dead. They were gone gone gone. In an earlier...

    WOIN O.L.D. Magic: Spider Climb

    The magic chapter has rules for giving a creature different movement modes using the movement skill - burrow, snowstep, swim, waterwalk, but not climb. Should climbing be included too? What would be the MP cost for climbing?

    Mobile Device Data Plans Vs “Power Users”

    Maybe he's not on wifi as much as you think he is - maybe he's not automatically connecting to one of those networks (because of a changed password or whatever).

    Druid Question

    Yes. All the beasts in the Monster Manual have their natural attacks (claws, bite, etc.) labelled as melee weapon attacks.

    Help Reading Dice Pools

    For Shadowrun, I have a set of d6's with the pips on the 2, 3, 4 sides coloured in with a matching Sharpie marker. It's a huge help.

    D&D 5E (2014) Recycling 5e

    Too many character sheets end up in landfills. Stop throwing out your characters when they die! Don't rip the sheet in half. Erase it all and re-use the paper for your next character. You've been penciling & erasing your HP for years, you can do the same thing with your entire character. Make...

    WOIN Elements of Magic, Range?

    The range of a spell is the maximum distance at which it can be cast. It's not a range increment like weapons. Note that the term "range increment" occurs only in reference to ranged weapons, and the weapon tables list this property under the heading "Range Inc" not "Range". On the other hand...

    Speeding Up Play (Without Being a Jerk)

    Seriously? I've known people who roll dice individually, but picking them out of the dice bag every turn? I don't know if anything you can say would make a difference because it sounds like those people aren't really there to play D&D, but rather to indulge a polyhedral fetish.

    WOIN Defenses and increases to them in v1.2 errata

    Hmm... So a "shielding" spell (O.L.D. chapter V, under "Abjure") only affects melee & ranged defenses? Is there a similar way for a character to buff mental & vital defenses?

    WOIN Immunities and Vulnerabilities?

    It doesn't seem right to get the benefits of both exploits without the drawbacks of either. Maybe you could get both immunities, and vulnerabilities to two other elements such as acid and lightning.

    WOIN Defenses and increases to them in v1.2 errata

    "+1 to all three Defense" should be "+1 to all four Defense". Vital Defense was added after the other three. I'm not sure about "+1 Defense". Looking at some places where it occurs, it looks to me like it can mean either melee & ranged defense, or all defenses, depending on the context.

    WOIN Trading Dice

    Yes, it's in the latest W.O.I.N. errata. Now that Morrus is finished with version 1.2 for all 3 books, it looks like he's getting a quick start on version 1.3. :)

    Cyberpunk Genre RPGs

    You can definitely have Shadowrun without the elves & magic, as long as you're not running adventures that require those elements. My group played a Shadowrun / XCOM campaign that started out with no metahumans (although they came in later via alien shenannigans).

    Acquisitions Inc Book Art From Aviv Or

    It's not a direction that D&D is taking, it's a book that grew out of a campaign played by the creators of a comic strip.

    WOIN New WOIN errata?

    I think it works OK for most character backgrounds, if you rationalize the REP as being spread out over the 5 starting careers and not something they were born with. I do like that you won't have most characters getting "Nondescript" as their low-attribute trait choice. The other low-attribute...
