Yes, I'm very much interested in it. More details please :) I'm starting the game within the next couple of weeks, and I've already started the character creation phase. One player is interested in playing a psychic. So I'm up for ideas.

I posted this over on the d20 modern forum, but it didn't seem to strike a chord with anyone. Apologies in advance if you've already read this... I've been working on a skill based psionic system for d20 modern for some time now, and I want to pass one of my rules for it by the number crunchers...

Ok, maybe I posted this in the wrong place....

I've been working on a skill based psionic system for d20 modern for some time now, and I want to pass one of my rules for it by the number crunchers on the boards before I put it into play. Basically, I wanted a system where the different psionic powers are made into class skills the player...

So far I've purchased Modern Backdrops, Quickshots, and the Modern Players Companion. Two of the three were very solid purchases. I don't have a preference when it comes to the pdf/print debate, I just buy what I like, and both formats have their drawbacks/advantages. As for the popularity...

Here's what I do with potions: Every potion has it's own flavor. Healing potions tast like castor oil. The stronger the flavor, the stronger the magic. This allows the party to instantly identify any potion they have previously used. Plus it keeps them on their toes with the ones they haven't.

Landscape style DM screens are like theatre style seating. It's like, why didn't someone do this before?

I think the article was a nice primer for a future product. Just enough to whet the appetite. I'd hate to run a game just on the info provided. A few scant details and a couple of advanced classes does not a mini-game make. If you want to run D*M, take the advice of the article: Go get the...

Alas, poor Erky did not survive the encounter with that dreadful druid, but he died heroically. Honorable little Meepo also fell fighting the foul goblins. And here is the interesting part: The party only had time to retrieve one of the bodies for a proper burial before returning to the...

OldDrewId....you have a private message!

Enlightening. Once again enworlders save the day!

That's it. A simple question, really :)

Hi everyone, I see this is some sort of self-help support group for dealing with the acute pain associated with character loss. This happens to me almost every game session. You see, I'm the DM. I've found that it follows basically the same pattern. I introduce to the rest of the players a...

I second that.

Your kung fu is strong.

I'm interested to know how the DMs running modern campaigns are handling the spell component factor. It seems to me like this is an area that could really add to the flavor of the game, if done right. Of course in the typical fantasy setting the value of spell components is marginalized, but in...

I understand that it's a force effect, not a real edifice. What I'm trying to get a handle on is how much control I can exert over the dimensions of the spell as far as it's area of affect. The DM has ruled that it is basically a 40' circle, which is huge, and doesn't seem to fit the feel of...

The spell description says it's a 20' radius centered on you, making it 40' across if I understand it correctly. That's not tiny. That's pretty frickin large. The reason I ask is the DM in my group told me last night that I couldn't cast the spell in a forest because I didn't have an open...

I've started up a one-on-one FR campaign, and as I looked through the 'day in the life' section of the campaign book, I noticed something odd. The Faerun...er Faerunian? month is divided into three 10-day weeks. Ok, good so far, but the days of the week are given numerical names. Firstday...

I don't know if this is good or bad, but I've been dming almost non-stop since 3rd edition and I haven't lost a player yet, much less an entire party. I've come pretty close, and I've offed a couple of npc allies, but not a player. Now my mother-in-law on the other hand.... She decides she...
