    TSR Blast from the Past- How to Go Full Monty Haul in AD&D

    Good catch. There is more weirdness the more you look. I am guessing the two entries for hammer +2 with different xp and sale values are a typo. Maces go +1, +2, disruption, +4. Scimitar only comes in +2 varieties (but then the description gives options for them to be like other magic swords).

    When you play in person, where do you play? (Poll)

    Usually at my friends' (a married couple) house, sometimes one of them are the DM, sometimes another of us in the group is. The last year plus face to face campaign I ran was at their house. They have a young kid (kindergartner) and we play in their first floor or basement after the kid is down...

    TSR Blast from the Past- How to Go Full Monty Haul in AD&D

    i.e., e.g., c.f., etc. When he said q.v. what did he actually mean? Did he mean it that way in the actual specific instance? Unreliable usage is kind of unreliable. The girdle use of q.v. is not quite the same as the use of q.v. in erase. In erase it says it can be used against glyphs of...

    Removing X ability score minimum to cast spells

    I used this as a house rule in my 3.5/Pathfinder 1e games (see "Magic is Easy" in my Freeport games' house rules). It makes lower stat characters more viable and more multiclass caster options more viable. I think of core multiclass casters generally as a big power drop compared to SAD full...

    Worlds of Design: In the Shadow of Tolkien

    I think I read the Hobbit around the same time I got into D&D, age 8, second grade. Not sure when I saw the 1977 movie, probably on TV sometime after it came out, I don't think I saw it in the theater. I know I had one of those kid records of it with an accompanying illustrated book and that...

    The hammer, gauntlets, and girdle? Yeah, your talking about the hammer, gauntlets, and girdle.

    TSR Blast from the Past- How to Go Full Monty Haul in AD&D

    It is written ambiguously, thus 1e rules lawyer arguments to be made. The girdle text says outright the two stack with any hammer, the gauntlets suggest it is desirable in combo with a girdle and any hurled weapon (so spears, axes, daggers, darts too) but does not state why, and of course the...

    As a GM, which monster do you find the most difficult to role-play?

    I think of the smooth talking deal making manipulators as the arch devils. Most rank and file MM devils are the legions of hell, lawful order-taking soldiers of different types.
