    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    This system is great, but isn't it only usable for AD&D? It looks like it wouldn't work too well with D&D... By the way, would Immortals be supported under your system as low-level gods or are they just Epic Level Characters but with immortality? Another question : while converting "official"...

    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    OK, now I think I understand the logic behind the system to calculate XP. Instead of comparing Level with CR (as it is done in the DMG), you must compare the CR, right? However, I have some problems with the examples you gave : A party of 4 level 40 characters wouldn't be CR 30, would it? After...

    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    Hi there! I have another question (yet again!:D ) : How will the change in CR calculation modify the XP table? Let's take an example to explain the question, it will be easier : With the current system, a party of level 40 characters defeats a CR 40 monster. They gain 12,000 XP (300*40 ...

    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    I don't think it would work... It is near enough at the very first levels, but from level 4 to level 19 it is quite far from the actual value. Level 20 is quite near from the actual valour, but from level 21 upwards, it is less than what I thought, which already seems to be too low. See this...

    Character Wealth by Level chart for level 20+?

    THat's not too far from what I had created... You may take a look at my guessing in the Immortals Handbook thread, but I'll repost it here : Level 2 : 900 Level 3 : 2.700 (+1800) Level 4 : 5.400 (+2700) Level 5 : 9.000 (+3600) Level 6 : 13.000 (+4000) Level 7 : 19.000 (+6000) Level 8 ...

    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    Thanks a lot for the update! I'm writing a campaign right now that will lead my players from level 10 to about level 25-30, and after that, godhood (I should have your book by that time. I hope! ;) ). However, while designing the (mortal) archvillain (Nec15/Acm5/Bargainer10), the chief servant...

    Character Wealth by Level chart for level 20+?

    I think I remember seeing once the chart or at least guidelines for character wealth above 20th level (I believe it was in a preview for the Epic Level Rules by WotC). However, as you probably already understood, I didn't save it and can't find it anymore. Does anyone know where it was...

    Immortals Handbook (aka The Worship Points System)

    Great to see a more up-to-date Table of Contents! However, I have just a little question : do you handle some kind of Epic Level Rules? I think that you said before that you would, but it isn't present in the new table of contents... I suppose it is somewhere in the book, you wouldn't let us...

    Stupid skill question (but I don't have my PH at hand!)

    I have a Wiz 2/Rog 1 character who will soon become Rog 2. And I just can't remember the rule for max skill rank : can I have 5 or 7 ranks in tumble, a skill that is only on the rogue skill list? What about craft, which is on both?

    The Worship Points System

    No, you need the credit card to register with paypal. Then, everytime you want to pay using Paypal, you don't need the credit card anymore, just the login name and password for the paypal site. The cost of the thing(s) you bought is automatically deducted from the credit card account... There...

    The Worship Points System

    I would prefer to have a non-illustrated book ASAP and wait for the printed version to see illustrations. I never print pdf books anyway as it uses too much ink. The best option for me would even be a rtf or doc version of the book, which would enable me to print only the parts of the book...

    The Worship Points System

    Re: Am I Ao? You should be careful not to let power control you, you're not Ao... yet! :D BTW, is Ao considered head of the FR pantheon? Does he get WP for every god in the FR? What about the Mulhorandi pantheon? Does he get WP for them too or is this a separate pantheon?

    Looking for comments: New wizard spell casting system

    I believe you're mistaking : if you assume an Int score of 18, then the 1st-level wizard can cast 2 spells or 3 if he is specialized. And quite frankly, I do not like much the fact that the wizard doesn't need to rest and can prepare spells back to his maximum as he sees fit. You'll see things...

    Looking for comments: New wizard spell casting system

    Some help, but not very positive... :( Things I like about your system : 1. It is an easy way to lower the power of wizards in the game, which is cool when you want a low-magic setting. I prefer high-magic setting like the FR, but if I wanted to run a low-magic campaign, this system would be...

    Problems with HP

    I am not a huge fan of the VP/WP system myself, except in this specific case. The VP/WP system creates a sense of danger for the players Unfortunately, at low level, it REALLY unbalances things : you now have to deal 15 damage to kill a goblin (4 VP and 11 WP). The best way would then be not to...

I do not come often to the general forums, nice to same the same faces there too, I feel more at home! :cool: Unfortunately, I was not the one choosing the destination, and as these holidays were offered to me, I didn't feel like refusing and staying at home.:D Sorry to repost a subject...

    Redesigning the Reviews Page

    There is one thing I'd really love: the ability to search only for PDF products... I'm a great fan of pdf products, and if I could have a listing with reviews of the books that have been published like this, it would really be great!

    Anyone here from Dublin?

    Hello guys! I'm coming to Dublin on next Monday and Tuesday, and when I last went to Ireland (to Cork if you want to know), I saw that RPG books were a lot cheaper there than here in Belgium (don't ask me why). This may have changed witht he coming of the euro, but I think I'm still going to...
