I get tired of people misusing the apostrophe. Any chance you could remove it from "Cliche's" please? Ugh.

Airwalkrr, good points all, and I think you've hit upon one problem with D&D as it is written now. One rule that still seems to be under-emphasised in the books it that everything is optional. The GM is expected to set restrictions, add limitations and put the controls into his own gameworld...

Thanks, Necromas. It's good to have you on board. Welcome to our little world :) 600+ posts, 10,000+ views. All for something with a wordcount under 900. Just....wow....

Let's just say that it's something /very/ tentative right now, so we don't want to announce anything without looking foolish if nothing happens :) But if it does, you guys will be among the first to know! Nothing mysterious, just cool. Promise :)

Thanks for adding that to the site, Kensanata. I'm planning to put the monsters and equipment up onto the site as a page too, so all of the rules are available online as well as on PDFs. There's a reason for this. Something to do with a project I'm working on with Snikle :)

Yep, doing it the old way is best :) Who needs all those silly Reach rules when you can give give 'em a bonus to Initiative for having a longer weapon (or bigger size) and leave it at that. Fewer rules = good. We only role initiative once in combat (unless something really strange happens)...

I highly recommend a look at Kensanata's maps. I want this beauty as a poster!! Superb.

Surely it's not "which Deity do you hate the most" now, but "which Deity do you like the least"? All the ones I dislike most are gone..........:)

Yep, You'll find no reach rules in Microlite20. That doesn't mean there's rules for weapons with no reach, but that there aren't any reach rules. When I say "no reach" I don't mean "no reach", I mean "no reach" as in "there are no reach rules", not "there are rules for using weapons without...

Aw c'mon! YOU GUYS ARE GREAT!!!!!! I've added snickle's map to The Scarlet Sea page. Really, it makes a great mini-campaign setting. Bert, I'd love to see more adventures set in and around the location. It could easily become m20's "default" campaign setting. Kinda like a microlite Greyhawk...

Odhanan, I've been following your campaign for a while now and it's probably the best, most entertaining series I've read for a long time. And I'm very jealous of the excellent food too :) When's the next one going to be up?

I've updated The Scarlet Sea to include the version with Bert's own maps and changed place names. It's now possible to play it using either the WoTC-owned maps or Bert's own. Your choice :) I'll add the pocketmod for this version next time I reboot into Windows.

Interesting post. While I don't think the Revolution wii will dint role-playing any more than any other console has in the past, I do think that the interface will change the future of gaming, forever. Console games have brought a lot of players to the hobby and boosted them no end. We're no...

Well said, Plane Sailing! I'm actually enjoying the debate; it's fun to see why other people use AoOs and get along just fine with them where we don't. Everything is open to review of course, so if someone could come up with a compelling reason to add them back (and a way to avoid all those...

Not a lot, really: - Initiative = Reflex save. Improved Initiative still adds +4 to the roll - No AoOs - Characters start at 2nd level for new campaigns, using the stat array 10,12,13,14,15,16 - Sorcerers don't use material components and can take Arcane Attunement (as per Duskblade) in place...

I'd say that d20 Modern is the bestest system for cinematic Action Adventure role-playing. If you want to be able to do stuff from the movies, then this is it. However, if you want something with a higher does of realism, then the latest version of GURPS is probably the way to go. GURPS 4e is a...

I like! I love the idea of a Christmas Treant. That's totally going to get snarfed. Thanks for sharing.

Good questions, all. Thanks for asking :) AoO is the only one that's been House Ruled as dead in the water by the group. The rest we actively use and encourage, even Grapple. And I agree - the grapple rules are another part of the rules that need a serious long hard revision as they are kinda...

Well, it wasn't Combat Reflexes :)

True :) Call it a character flaw.
