    True 20 - Is it really Simpler?

    Nifty progression, Bento. I may present that to my player, to see if he likes it better than what we came up with. Thanks!

    True 20 - Is it really Simpler?

    Trying to create an exact analogue of the D&D monk in True20 is tricky. The monk is unbalanced compared to the other classes, and the sheer number of abilities they get is hard to fit in. We just did a trial conversion of one of my player's monk characters, and we got it *close.* I'd recommend...

    True 20 - Is it really Simpler?

    It's a different sort of work. While the Damage track is slightly more complex than hit points, in and of itself, the streamlining of combat, in general, makes combat go faster. Removing thing like Attacks of Opportunity, and adding things like minion rules make combat flow faster. It does...

    Why the lack of 3rd party adventures

    I think there are two reasons why adventures aren't strong sellers: 1. Every adventure is written to a specific power level; you might write it for a small range of levels, or you might include scaling information, but you're still targeting a very narrow window. In order for people to be...

    Amalara releases Dungeon Dive 7: Spawning Pits of the Tomb Bats

    Currently being worked on are a red dragon's lair, a corrupted swamp, and a "running the gauntlet" type location that's ideal for when you want to make life really difficult between point A and point B. As always, I'm open to suggestions, and anybody who makes a suggestion that ends up being...

    New Wizard's Statblock

    Jeffrey, if you want an "official" answer, email Rich Redman: Rich.Redman[AT]wizards[DOT]com. I did, and he was very quick and courteous with his answer. Unless something really strange has happened since I emailed him, you can derive from the above what the answer is likely to be.
