    D&D Revamped: Basic Principles

    comrade raoul> It is true, that there's probably a few thousand full or semi revamped D20 systems out there. I am not in the belief that mine will become the new big thing, mainly making it to try out with a group of players. Its simply a result of a wide host of minor house rules being...

    D&D Revamped: Basic Principles

    Okay, I posted some of Combat Feats for the revamped project I am working on already. Its a work in progress, and a long and tedious one at that. Before I post anything else, I wanted to explain a bit more precisely what it is I am doing. This game system has four classes. These classes are...

    How to make House Rules fun. (Now with Beer!)

    Well, fun rules I have to say. I have to agree with the English, but since they are, after all, just copy/pasted house rules, you probably have adopted a language you are certain that your players will understand. It does give a bit of a humerous edge to the rules, the way you use the accent. I...

    D&D Revamped: Sample Spell

    I am working on the revamped spell system simultaneously as I am working on the other things, and I made a sample spell to set a standard for how the spells will be described. The spell is a simple, straight-forward fire spell, a first level spell. It is very similar to the Light spell from...

    Revamp: Combat Feats

    I actually went deliberately after making some specific attacks when designing these. The combat class gains a feat every level, and starts out with 2 feats, so I am making the feats less powerful and a slight tad more specific than regular feats.

    Revamp: Combat Feats

    Well, not straight. As written though, I did use the Rage concept from WOW. I was cracking my head to find a way to make combat more interesting for melee characters, and my best idea revolved around implementing Rage. Of course, I had to modify the WOW rules quite alot in that aspect, because...

    Revamp: Combat Feats

    Been away for ages it seems, back a bit, so lets see if all this still hangs on. Okay, just want to say a few introductionary words before I get on with the actual postage. This isn't a complete list in any way of the Combat Feats I am working for for my revamp of D&D. And I would also like to...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Hey Corvidae, sorry for the late reply, had a few days of vacation, so I haven't really been online, going to add your latest weapon to the wiki right away. I actually didn't work alot further on Bishop Laurent, for some reason I wasn't as fond of him and his spells as I wanted to be. I did...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Thanks a bundle Corvidae. Ill get cracking on getting it formatted for the wiki. Pricing is correct this time as far as I can see. The weapon looks good by the way, you do indeed do good fluff as you mentioned. Quite fond of the Bloodstone, are we? :D

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Well, the price mentioned for Cloudsilver under materials is for 1 lb., and a longsword weighs 4 lb. Another thing to keep in mind is that I kinda abolished the Masterwork property, and instead use a scaling quality level, should be located under the crafting rules. Looking tremendously...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Hey Corvidae! I just finished brushing up your weapon and I added it to the Craftsmanship site. Sample Weapons I really like it, very elven in story and properties. I altered it very slightly (I didn't alter the background story, materials or modifications). I don't use Masterwork property...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Thanks alot Corvidae. I did think of making the Equipment bonus to ability scores not stack, which would make sense since both the Alabaster and Elven Craftsmanship have a description slightly similar (Alabaster is a bit more expensive to buy, but Craftsmanship takes a lot longer and requires a...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Thanks for the input Corvidae, I did think of going ahead with making ranged weapon modifications as well as arrow types, just want to finish up everything with melee weapons before I move ahead. Once I get melee weapons finished up, I will definitely use the ideas you had for arrows below. I...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Thanks for your comments. I actually implemented jade now, as a gemstone. I went through different material about the history of jade to find some inspiration for special powers, and I found that it was often used by some cultures to make weapons or equipment used for ritual sacrifice. I came up...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Okay, made some more work on the materials. I am still far from satisfied with the list, hoping to get something along the line of 80-100 materials in total. Still need to finish some materials that I already have ideas for, as well as adapting some of the material from Kerrick. Indexed the...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Well, I already got something very specific planned with the Dragon materials, which will be Dragonscale and Dragonhorn (which includes teeth and claws). The Runes I think I might be able of finding some use for, as an advancement of the Dwarf Craftsmanship. My idea was to introduce that as...

    Advanced Weapon Crafting

    Okay, I updated the material significantly, the new stuff is all found in the links in the post above. Here's a list of the changes done. Added rules regarding Weapon Modifications according to Rage King’s suggestion, so a character learns a Weapon Modification for every 4 ranks he has in a...

    The weapon to beat all weapons.

    Its so cliché making people slip on banana-peels :( I am going to make a Rogue, level it up to level 20, get Weapon Focus (Orange Peel), Greater Weapon Focus (Orange Peel), Weapon Specialisation (Orange Peel), Greater Weapon Specialisation (Orange Peel) and Weapon Finesse (Orange Peel), just to...

    When a warrior stands at the wrong end of a crossbow...

    I agree. My post count is 1268, I wonder if I post again in this thread, will it be 1269? And I wonder what the original poster must be thinking after all this blatant thread-hijacking.
