ARRRRGGHH!!!! Why did I have to move away from an area with a WOTC store just minutes away, to a place where the nearest GAME store is 60 miles away? :( I buy very little today. Reasons: Lack of funds, but when I do I choose by: How much use will I get out of it. I agree with Henry that D&Dg...

Thorvald, I have a couple of questions. The material looks good but I am a little unclear about the templetes. You said you get 4 points. Do you apply that amount to the rating number as a cost, like buying HD and Saves? I think I missed it on your page. I would love to hear how you did this...

Back to the topic of the "History" feature. I thought it was ok, but they could have and should have not let the director, (I dare not say his name) ;) open his stinking mouth for that whole feature. I might just be my opinion, but it seemed like everything he said about D&D was stupid, and...

AS in Criminal Justice BA in Justice Administration

Regdar, I must confess. When I play the Adventure Game, I insist on playing Regdar. No other pre-generated character will do. :D

I agree the purpose of the AG is to "get them playing right away." It does that well. But, like mmadsen, I think either an appendix, or a downloadable file for chargen would help bridge the gap between the AG and the PHB. Also, the version of the 3e Lite I am putting together is MORE like the...

[/b] Sounds almost exactly like me experience. I too, am thinking of giving the old Basic a shot for fun. If I had to choose between a stripped down version of the 3e rules, or the older basic rules, it would be a tough decision to make. I feel that 3e has corrected a lot of the problems I...

P'Kitty, RPGhost killed all the free sites including mine. :( I have all the Eversink Files saved (back to a certain point that is) in case you want them, but I am guessing that you have everything in WP format. Welcome back.

If you can ever get it in either print or ESD from WotC, I highly recomend N4 Treasure Hunt. It is an introductory adventure for 1e (yet easily converted) and IMO one of the most helpful novice aids ever printed for the game line. It is no ToEE or ToH, but it is well designed for its purpose...

I know a guy back home in NJ that does. As a player it doesn't really matter to me. As a DM, I personally would love to run a basic game. There a re a couple of things I would change, though AC goes up not down Cyclic initiative Spot/hide/listen/hear noise/search would need to be implimented...

Something just hit me. Quite a few people don't like material components for spells. The statment of I made above gave em an idea, though. Opinions would be very helpful. I made the comment that a fighter or rogue can use his ability without a limit during the day. That is not entirley true...

Apoptosis, I really like some of your ideas, especially the Elven magic. In a way, I agree with Monte Cook, that sorcerers should have a differnent spell list.

Matt, while we have your attention, :D , if you can comment, has the LOTR game gone to print yet? And while the errata for the ST PG is quite minimal, compared to another gaming company's core rule books, :D has there been any changes to the LOTR manuscript based on the feedback received on the...

I have to agree that, while I personally don' t like core magic, it does work and is simple. For the sake of simplicity, if I could figure out a way to eliminate the slot/prepared/X per day/ known stuff, but keep the spells as is, I would love to use that. So essentially, take the sorceror, a...

I sure do. I love the Adventure Game. I think it is the most under-rated product in the whole 3rd edition line to teach new players. BUT The one major downfall is the lack of CharGen. I actually have stripped out all of the info to make a document for such. I just haven't had the time to type...

I am in the process of creating a "basic" version of D&D. Ryan, were you peaking at my notes? :D When I get it done I will post it. It is very easy and smooth, but may need some balancing. Just a glance, three PC classes, fighter, rogue, spellcaster. Three stats: Str, Dex, Wits No skills...

Maybe, I missed something. I am not really sure what you are asking. Are you asking for people to post other game systems' combat resolution method, or asking if the one you posted is correct as per the core rules?

I completely agree. This was, IMO, one of the major strengths of of pre-UA/WSG/DSG 1st edition D&D. There was no skill system, other than thieves, and the secondary skills. This lead to an adhoc method that for some sparsely know info, (DM tells, to roll vs. your INT to recognize the...

But they are also used to represent health. It just doesn't seem right that Cure Serious WOUNDS restores the skill one has to dodge blows. That is were many people find it difficult to swallow. Hence the inception of the VP/WP. At first I liked the idea. Now I am not so fond of it. I prefer a...

Greetings! SHARK, and mmadsen, two of some of my favorite posters. :D I have two classes I love equally. The first is the barbarian. The second is the ranger. I never really liked the straight knight archtype. Heavy armor never appealed to me. Therefore it was apparant what choices to make...
