Hmm the party looks interesting so far.. A half orc cleric a charismatic dwarf! A rather naive man at arms a big lummox overconfident woodsman an of course an assassin ( which just sounds cool) I await Andrew and Troys concepts to see how this party rounds out. Should be fun. Sado I put your...

Githyanki. Silver sword carrying, world conquering, Lich queen lovin, red dragon allied,mind flayer hatin Githyanki. Just too cool, and very scalable for a campaign.

If James drops the pack, he'd lose 7 ENC which would put him at 10. Given his str he can be at 10 and be considered unencumbered. EDIT: I forgot you have stuff on the pack..so yea hed drop to 8..oops. Maybe the easiest way to cut and paste would be to quote the PC post I put up and then copy...

Ok listed below are the four PCs submitted so far. Ive placed a few stats in places easier for me to read when I copied them, and changed some ENC's. The errata and PHB are all confusing in that they list items with their carried weight then denote some items are wearable. A "w" simply denotes...

TroyXaviers gold for a druid TX's gold (2d10=11) 110 gold. mps42's gold for either a fighter or wizard... fighter:mps42 fighter (3d8=13) 130 gold wizard: mps42wizard (1d10=5) 50 gold

Nice review now if it would only show up at my local FLGS.

FYI for those of you without the PHB the conversion rate of coin is this: 10 gold =1 platinum piece 10 silver=1 gold piece 10 copper=1 silver piece Troy and Sado, I eagerly await your PCs :) The fighter militiaman sounds good (and Im glad your still with us Sado. mps42 I am of the school of...

Works for me. Do you have the C&C PHB perchance?

Also, in case you want to measure the utility of a helm/coif, in my game a crit occurs just on a natural 20 and does x2 damage. Thats not as lethal as in 3.5 but could be nasty in certain situations.

One rule that Ive been mulling over, but was made crystal clear to me by a player in my PbP game regards helms. Helms and coifs dont provide an AC bonus or head protection. Instead, helms provide protection vs critical hits (in my game natural 20s that do double damage). Such hits are treated...

Check page 3 of the erratta for explanation of helms. Basically they provide protection vs blows to the head. I dont believe they stack. This is very much a AD&D thing in my opinion, and I dont know of a situation where youd need protection vs. a blow to the head. What I am leaning toward...

Yes and no. That is the one I remembered, so at least Im not crazy! It less on mechanics of PbP rping than I remember however. But thanks for confirming my sanity-such as it is :)

No questions. I just thought a general guide, etiquette, dos and donts might be handy for new players. I could have sworn there was for a while a sticky to that end. Or maybe it was just a post. I know theres an old argosy of PBEM faq. Guess Im imagining things. I blame video games :)

I think stuff like this is great but how do they avoid litigation? Because its free?

Ok Ive looked and searched. But was there not once a FAQ/how to/do and donts guide to play by post rpg on the boards somewheres? I ask since I starting a PbP with soem relative newcomers to the genre, and I thought it might be handy. Or am I imagining things?
