    D&D 5E (2014) Minimum ability scores for a PC

    I see people not you talking about if is fun for them. If that's what is important for them then great but not everyone is that way. I'm offering a different view point. It comes from me an my experience which includes the 80's a decades of gaming. In that experience I have played in games...

    D&D 5E (2014) Minimum ability scores for a PC

    It all depends on if the player can be happy with other people's success or they can only be happy if they are doing well. My perspective also comes from decades of gaming. In 1e in the 80's we had campaigns that would go to 8th or so level. If a player character died or the player wanted to try...

    D&D 5E (2014) Minimum ability scores for a PC

    Any character is playable and I can have fun playing a really bad character stat wise so there is no minimum. It is very possible that a weak character will die quickly though, the game can be like that.

    D&D 5E (2014) Reach weapons: what's the drawback?

    Feats are optional rule. The game assumes people are not using them. My group does not use feats.

    Pathfinder 1E Mummy Mask AP: Thoughts?

    So far so good. We are still in book one but the different adventuring groups offer a great amount of Role playing opportunities. It is really easy to expand the first book and present different small places to explore. I am really disappointed with the map pack. There are some overland...

    D&D 5E (2014) Prediction: No OGL until at least May if not later

    This is what I'm thinking as well. I think if this is how it goes I'll be okay with it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Gem of Your Collection

    I really like my copy of GURPs Prisoner. It's an odd little book of a lesser known TV show but it is pretty cool.

    D&D 5E (2014) You Are Entering A World...Of Elven Trance. (Nns nns nns nns nns!)

    Is that what the kids are calling it these days? :D The elf in my group for the first session wanted his trance to be while he played an instrument like the Didgeridoo. The instrument was found destroyed the next day. Three of the party members swear that it took its own life by jumping off of...

    D&D 5E (2014) How do you kill a 10th level character?

    If there is something about my gaming or thoughts on it that need explained more please ask about them. This is not an argument it is a discussion. I don't feel my way is the right way for everyone, it is what works for me and my group. Like your self I have gamed for over three decades and I...

    D&D 5E (2014) How do you kill a 10th level character?

    I don't have players, I have friends. I don't want to play with anyone I would not be a friend with and I find by giving them the respect that one does friends keeps my players around a lot longer then DMs who treat them like players. There are plenty of bad players in the world that I am happy...

    D&D 5E (2014) How do you kill a 10th level character?

    I've been running this for a lot of new players and killing their characters does not discourage any of them. In fact they take it as a challenge to create a new character (and they all love making characters and have so many awesome ideas from the PHB) and to play better from learning from...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dark Sun in 5E?

    It would be pretty easy. Most of the classes and sub classes in the PHB are doing the work for you. Psionics obviously would be the biggest problem.

    D&D 5E (2014) How Often Do You Have NPCs Join the Party?

    As DM I never have NPCs join the party. That's a players choice so the players decide when and who an NPC joins the party. They do have it happen a lot.

    W... What!?

    I just read a compilation* of Sherlock Holmes stories that take place in different time periods and one was even fantasy. Holmes was male, female, and once a young girl. I'm fine with it. *Two Hundred and Twenty-One Baker Streets

    W... What!?

    I would love to see a Sherlock Robin Hood cross over, that would be awesome.

    Pathfinder 1E Mummy Mask AP: Thoughts?

    The simple plot is one of the reasons I am interested. The AP is not going to be the main plot of the campaign. Some AP's make for great full campaigns but I've found others make for better adventure archs. The party is not going to start at level one for this, they will be 8. I haven't talked...

    D&D 5E (2014) DM Advice: How do you handle a TPK?

    The last TPK we had was near the end of the nights session so we ended a little earlier and the players were wondering what was going to happen next. The next session they all found themselves standing before the God of Death to be judged. It was a solid role playing session were they had to...
