    Elements of Magic - House Rules

    What I see, that you haven't detailed, at which level the abilities should gained. Also the spell caster progression, BAB, saves, hit die, prerequisites, ... did I forget something? Without this kind of information, a truly fair rating can't be made, so I look for really broken things. That is...

    Minor & Partial Transformations

    Soory for the delay, but I haven't been online yesterday. With "RC" I mean "Release Candidate" - a term taken from the software industry, where often a product is put out for testing, which has all the planned features, but isn#t deemed as stable for production purposes. Thus the company/team...

    Creature Types/Subtypes & Classification

    It is simple - use between the code tags enough spaces at the appropriate spaces - preview and adjust as appropriate. It took me for my table around an hour, but it should more easy for you. In principle, your idea is good. But some your corresponding elements are simple not appropriate for a...

    Minor & Partial Transformations

    Use Upper_Krusts CR-system - if you can build all kinds of monsters, then just a little addition shouldn't be a problem. I have an older RC-version, which I can mail to you - but beware, that there are some errors in it (like the XP system, where it accounts twice the party size), but they...

    Creature Types/Subtypes & Classification

    Actually, I consider Nellisir's system as a further deconstruction of Tonguez's system - using Nellisir's one, the main types could become "subtypes" for some general alterations. It is one step further "behind the scenes". Certainly possible, "Dragon" could even give always d12s - but that...

    EOM - Lyceian Arcana requestish thing: Is this broken?

    I can't say, that I find it broken - nearly everything, what I thought, has been already mentioned. Maybe you should let a caster know, which spell has been ended - it would be flavorful and not gamebreaking.

    D&D satanic; here we go again.

    Have you ever considered to ask your aunts: "Would you believe your minister, if he tells you, that the earth is flat and saying otherwise is satanic?" :)

    Elements of Magic - Spell Creation and Critique

    I haven't considered this path - thank you for the tip! Thank you! :o I'd like to see the ports - you could put them on the wiki. But beware, that you can't use the names, as they are IP. But ask Monte for a license, which allows the use. Good night and good luck.

    It could have been - the last email exchange is a bit due, but my partner seems to be busy with his job. I am not as much a linguist, as it may seem - that is the reason, why I have chosen to look for someone far more experienced than me. But if I have to search for a gaming group, I will...

    Creature Types/Subtypes & Classification

    Maybe I've misinterpreted your post, but I thought, that your houserule was a proposal - as such it doesn't go far enough. For the use in your preparation, this houserule can be applied on-the-fly. Roman: Your hierarchy has the disadvantage, that it is a bunch of threads joined together. As...

    Arbiter of Wyrms: Are you by chance "Ascarel" on some other forum? The person behind this nick helps me in the constructing of languages for my campaign world, which are supposed to be made OGC, if they are finished. Thus I find your proposal a bit too conspicious to be coincidence. That said...

    Elements of Magic - Spell Creation and Critique

    If you have seen the teasers, then it is no question, that Lyceian Arcana will be very useful. Combined with an updated EoMR (how shall that be called? EoMR 1.5?) it will be an invincible system compared to the core rules. And I appreciate the support, like RangerWickett surely does (although I...

    Editor

    There are two problems with the editor: 1. The simple click on a button yields the opening of a text edit field, but the entered text vanishes along with the tags, which should enclise it, into nirvana. I have to select the text, but after using the button, the editors scrolls automatically to...

    Creature Types/Subtypes & Classification

    Finally I know, what the problem is with this feat - you could influence centaurs, too, if they have the subtype (Equine). Better would be a restriction like "Works only on Equines of the Beast type with an intelligence lower than 3." You miss, that Oozes are a subtype themselves - Aberration...

    Creature Types/Subtypes & Classification

    So would you don't allow mount buff spells for non-equines or would you require to develop a new spell respectively new spells, which cover the rest? The first is flavor-vise(?) acceptable, but the core-rules shouldn't be shoe-horned (pardon the pun) into a particular flavor (IMO, there are...

    The slippery slope of house rules. When are there too many?

    If a flesh golem system is hideous or not, depends on the internal consistency. If you succeed on this goal, the flesh golem won't look as originated of Frankenstein's lab. But this means not only to choose the optional rules carefully with a certain theme in mind, but also to eliminate the...

    Creature Types/Subtypes & Classification

    How do you penalize oozes and constructs (those have poor saves, too)? A straight penalty won't cover the save advancement. Maybe saying, those types have simply the special quality "All saves are always treated as poor."? Do I interpret this correctly? You don't want to differentiate between...

    Elements of Magic - Spell Creation and Critique

    Lyceian Arcana has a feat like Overcasting, but it will result in Ability Damage. Any overspending beyound the actual caster level has to be carefully considered regarding its consequences. E.g., if you could spend more on Range, then you strengthen (not only) the fireball spells, because you...
