I have a request about the main page, so I thought I'd post it here instead of starting a new thread : could the links to the hosted sites be shown there again? I'd have liked to go to the Creature Catalog website, but I couldn't find the address and I had to go back to the old page... :( Thanks

I do not totally agree with you. If you like to play in a game where things are explained when compared to balance, then do it. But I much prefer playing in as realistic a campaign as can be. If that means breaking balance a little, then so be it! The thing I do not like about this system is...

Re: Re: Wealth While I agree with you, since that's the way I play too, your system cannot be designed to be played YOUR way. It is true that it seems that WotC wants characters to be able to buy their magic items (e.g. in the Forgotten Realms, the Red Wizards of Thay now have enclaves in...

Re: Wealth That would really give strange results at very high level, wouldn't it? An ECL 200 creature (CR 53 if I'm right), would have a total wealth of 200 x 200 x 200 x 100 = 800 million GP of total wealth, but his personal equipment will only be 53 x 53 x 53 x 100 = 14,887,700 GP, less than...

Another question regarding ECL: will the modifier for an ability be the same for monsters and NPC? For example, an ability to cast a spell (let's say an offensive spell, like fireball or disintegrate) once per hour or once per year would have the same modifier for a monster since it effectively...

Oh, I know that, I'm quite knowledgeable about the OGL and D20 STL actually... What I meant was that WotC, after having bought TSR, didn't care about the electronic utilities that existed for AD&D 2nd. Now, they have given the opportunity to use their material to create material derived from...

What is a bit disturbing in the issue of software having to comply with the OGL/D20 STL, is that, before these licences, in AD&D 2nd edition, there were character generators that were allowed to exist and to thrive. Now, with the OGL, you can't even do that.

You just made my day with that! :D Seriously, though, I'll think I'll limit the number of attacks to 4 only for simplicity's sake. I don't imagine a very-high level fighter having dozens and dozens of attack every round. Furthermore, the more attacks the fighter-types have, the less impact the...

I think that's exactly the problem. You seem to think everyone plays your way. Just as with the fighter who you thought would always have a weapon of sure striking. I mean no offense, but if you try to design new rules, you must not limit yourself to how you and the groups with which you play or...

My players usually use slashing or piercing weapons, so skeletons are usually a good encounter against them... And I think that's the problem with a system to calculate ECL... A red dragon ECL is different if the wizard has fireballs prepared or if he has ice storms prepared... I don't think a...

Re: Plotting I never tried it, but as you can export in BMP, you should be able to use the program you usually use to print using your plotter...

I truly think this discussion is pointless... :D

IMO, that'll be the most useful part of the book...

I would say that another DM with whom none of the players has ever played before would be better, since clearly UK and Simon have the same view of the rules...

Hi all! I'm back from holidays (if you wonder, they were great, the type where you slept during two weeks rather than the type where you need to sleep two weeks AFTER the holidays!), and have spent some time reading all that was written during those two weeks... But the question I have for you...

I think you should take a look at Cyberzombie's article on page 36 of Asgard #5, it covers this kind of problem. The main problem with giving more skill points, be it only for knowledge skills or for any skill, is that the skill prerequisite for prestige classes are more easily obtained.

Ouch!:eek: I really look forward to read the tale of our adventure to see what happened after my leaving!

Just as his web was... Sorry if at the beginning you didn't like my staying at the back, but you told me to play the wizard defensively, and that's what I did... I hope the end of Saturday and Sunday there was great for you! It was great to meet you and the others!:D

Yasir mainly stayed at the back until seeing the troll when he turned invisible so that he wouldn't be attacked before casting the web on it... Afterwards, you'll have to ask to guy who played Yasir once I left...

I prefer this type of news everyday, but I'm afraid it's a lot more difficult to find something when you look for it some days after the reporting... Still, I answered Good because I believe it's better this way!
