[Update to Game File and Scroll Style] 2017-03-20 Finally got around to creating scroll imprints and ribbons for the new spell domains. Updated to Game file to include Hexblade, The Raven Queen Patron and Metal Magic to Support UA Warlock and Sorcerer options. Spell Scroll style updated to...

I agree. DM's have to be prepared to describe the world when the player's go off script. However, it is much easier to do so when a framework is already present and nodes within the branching framework can be presented as opportunities to remain on track and towards the goals the players have...

I use a technique that appears to be "reverse branching" to create a variety of different hooks that provide different motivations (and sometimes goals and rewards) to embark on the adventure. Sometimes the hook choice will cause start point to vary a little, but it is ultimately the same...

This is how I design my adventures. I only account for major decisions and the minor choices created by the players are ad-lib according to the story/setting at the time. For some encounters, especially combat encounters, I have several variation depending on the choices. These are not minor...

I just hope it isn't the same type of character builder as the other one where none of the saved characters were usable (or printable, or recoverable) once the software stopped being supported.

I wasn't intending a critism of the job done, but remarking on the challenges you face keeping the site clear of spam. They sure are persistent though. Sent using EN World app.

Good Lord there was a lot of spam this morning. ugh.

Attack Wing uses alot of the same mechanics as any aerial flying game (Wings of War, Star Wars, Star Trek, etc). Game is made by wizkids. Each flying creature has an attack radius, a flight speed, and a set of maneuvers they are capable of making. Each flight stand also comes with elevation...

The old D&D rules had glorious amounts of guidance in the DM guide for aerial combat. Monsters had turn radius ratings and really allowed for differences between maneuverability classes between flying creatures. That said, it might be worth adopting the D&D Attack Wing rules for aerial combat...

Nice article -- thanks for the share!

I recall a conversation during 4th Edition D&D on their podcast discussing the appropriate length of combat. In general, the length of combat should not exceed the use of their special powers. When the combat devolved into a simply trading of blows (i.e. attrition), then the combat has lasted...

What is the process for creating new badges for the site?

What type of feedback are you looking for? That is what will guide your survey. Automated surveys are nice, but fairly limiting. Questions and answer options have to be very clear or the survey will not reveal anything useful. Unless there is a large group to poll, I prefer one-on-one...

Well, a charisma of 1 is pretty repulsive. It is up to the DM, but I would expect every NPC to avoid you and every monster to attack you. You could role play it also for an interesting effect.

Interesting mechanics for the RPG. (And doesn't require special dice like others that change the dice mechanics)
