    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I can see it now. Hardcover, credits on the inside front cover, OGL license on the inside back cover, and one page containing the rules. :D :D :D

    Erik Mona's Lo-Fi Experience System

    I scrapped the core XP system, too. I read somewhere once that the D&D XP system was set up so that a new level would be reached after an average of 13 or so encounters; so I decided to sort of take that approach and run with it. I simply started having my players level up after 15 successful...

    Doctor Who: Love and Monsters

    I was rather underwhelmed by this episode, though I suspect that my reaction is influenced, at least in some part, by the fact that the 'Unquiet Dead' episode from Eccleston's run (one of my favorites) was broadcast on BBCAmerica earlier in the week. With that episode fresh in my mind...

    New listings on the WotC 2007 product page!

    Hmmmmmm.... I'll have one o' them there Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk thingys, I believe. Dungeon Tiles, too, as I'm pretty much picking up a couple of each set; and probably Monster Manual V. Don't know about much of the rest, but probably not the Drow or FR material, and I'd be burned...

    How do you read your PDFs?

    My general track is to look 'em over on the computer first. If the pdf is good, I print it, then store the pdf on a CD (in case I ever need to print it again), delete it from my hard drive, and have the printed material bound. If I don't like the pdf, I just get rid of it altogether. By and...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Both approaches would work quite nicely, and would even be easily made complimentary, and should probably make it into the Macropedia. Personally, though, I'm in agreement with Greywulf. One attack, and move the hell on. The faster combat goes, the better I like it. Regards, Darrell

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Oh, my Lord. :D WSmith, that GM screen is one of the coolest things so far. :) 'Wulf, that Macropedia is lookin' good. :D As soon as I can finish it up, I have a new pdf regarding an m20 Pantheon of Deities, with information on clerics of each god. I'll post it when I finish it...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    That's about right. That was really the last thing I was kind of questioning. Sure does! :) Agreed. ;) Well, ya got my nod. :) I'm ready to print out the full system's-worth of pdfs on some card stock and put 'em in my menu-folder thingies. It'll be cool to have our 'master'...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    And a darn fine job, too. Good job on the two-page fit. :) I noticed the same one-line bit in the license throwing it onto a fourth page that 'wulf did, but it didn't bug me that much, as I never print out the license page anyway. I've been thinking about doing this, but just haven't...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I don't see any reason for a new mechanic. The m20 rules are quite capable of multiclassing as they stand. In fact, one of my players is planning for his fighter to become a paladin. We're handling this by his taking a level of cleric when he reaches 3rd level. I hate to sound like a broken...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    That was kind of the feeling I was having to begin with. Having thought it over a bit more, I think I'll leave the Monster List as it is. (Though, I have to say, the 'outwrestling a hobgoblin' thing was an in-game example from Sunday night...it was fresh on my mind when I needed an example...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Agreed. They don't have to work the same. It might help, though, to have its STR listed if you and the hobgoblin are trying to throw each other off of a cliff, or its MIND if its trying to resist your spell. At any rate, it couldn't hurt to have its stats listed, just as an example. Let me...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    It doesn't make it more complex. One of the primary attractions for the +1d6 hp/level (It used to be a simple +1 hp/level...don't know how long you've been following the thread) was the variable nature of the random roll. A blanket +2, 3, or 4 doesn't have that random nature. Short answer...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Well, my vote goes to ability. I'd prefer it not to be restricted to clerics, but we're going for d20 compatibility, so there ya go. I think that's best. I think giving the option of Sadrik's simplification is optimal (because I really like it) but the more SRD compatible system should be...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I've kinda been thinking about that, too. It hasn't been a pressing issue, because I'm the only one who keeps track of 'experience' for my group, so if they have a cake-walk, they don't advance as fast as they do if they fight tougher opponents. Indeed, I tend to think along the lines of the...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Speaking for myself, by ignoring them for the most part. For my game, all information concerning the weapon is listed in the m20 Equipment List. There may be a magical +1 (to hit & damage) axe, or a flaming longsword that does longsword damage plus an extra 1dwhatever fire damage, but that's...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I kind of hate to agree, because I really like where Sadrik is taking the simplicity of weapons, but I'm going to have to. It is (IMO) too much of a departure from the SRD. :D Yeah, I think so. Even though I prefer my own 'Turning,' I think I'm going to go with greywulf's take, simply...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    I really think this is the best way to handle it for m20 Modern. A baseline game that can be used for 'normal' modern roleplaying, and a supplement or two to handle extranormal/paranormal subjects. That way, the game could be used for 'spy' games and such without having to work around a...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Yep. :) Taken from d20 and trimmed down (much like greywulf's original m20 document began). That's the underlying beauty of m20. It's the game we've been playing all along, just simpler. Regards, Darrell By the way...this thread is now 9 pages long. That's longer than m20 and all its...
