Adressing the issue of homogenization, think of it this way. Before we lived in a 'global' community, even before there were well-established shipping routes across the globe, each society would be considered very homogenized. Examples include northern Russia, China, India, even the Americas...

Re: Crime, One Way Portals, and the Middle of Nowhere First of all, excellent thread. Couple things: I agree with this completely, of course. But it seems to indicate you're forgetting one thing in your (very sound!) economical analysis: security. I don't recall how much money a typical...

As far as being evil for sic'ing that Leviathan on them, I'll make sure they survive. Somehow. :) I'm starting them at 5th-level (I know, kinda high, our preference though); is that module/sourcebook applicable to 5th-level PC's? If they have it at my FLGS (or is it FNGS?) I'm sure I'll pick...

Heh, well heck Nightfall, the Scarred Lands being what they are, ANYTHING is a right danger to a party without a cleric. Thus, I plan to introduce an NPC dwarven cleric of Goran to the party right away (they are all going to meet on a ship headed for Mithril -- what they don't know is that the...

Thanks Graf; I did read the thread first thing this morning, and found a lot of the ideas there to be really helpful. I think I will do what PirateCat does and allow clerics (and probably druids) to replace divine spells on their spell list with new ones (although if I had any, I would...

Buffalo. Dwarven War Buffalo. Or possibly a dire warthog.

Thanks Nightfall. While I was at the site I grabbed all the downloadable goodies there too, like the ancient ledean maps! That's something I've always been very curious about, what a great freebie! I guess I don't need to ask if you are, but MY GOD am I anticipating the Calastian book! I'm...

Can you post a link to this? I can't find errata for the R&R 2 on the official site. All I see is the errata for R&R 1. But then, I'm kinda dumb like that sometimes. :p

That's exactly how I feel. It's hard enough sorting through books of rules when I play now (most of the people I play with not exactly being what you'd call 'rules experts'); the last thing I want is more complexity added to an unrealistic game for the sake of 'realism.'

What about R&R 2? Also, I being a big fan of the SL, sometimes find myself thinking that some of the cleric spells are a little on the powerful side. Especially since, unlike arcane casters, they basically have access to "them all." Does anyone running a SL campaign have any opinions on this?

Gotta go with the twelve-sided-die, if for no other reason than once having our hobby immortalized to the masses in that weezer song they used ot play on the radio. :)

You know, that one is so good I'm going to put it in my sig. Hope no one minds. :D

I guess that's why they call you the king. :) I'm with you, Trapper John was to the 'good guys' of mash what Major Frank Burns was to the 'bad guys.' And likewise BJ was to the good guys what Winchester was to the bad; watered-down versions. :D

Re: Re: Silly economics of DnD I'm not sure most people could supplement their income by farming, unless they own land; if they farm a noble's land, then they are basically working two jobs, thus earning (I would guess according to the DMG) 2 sp per day rather than one. Same thing with...

Well, in all fairness, I did say Richard Pryor. :D

One thing I keep thinking is the relevance druids would play in a fantasy world's economy. Casting spells to help bring in a better crop would certainly be the best way to help eliminate starvation. Having an abundance of food would surely propel the economy above that of the real Medieval...

I for one will be buying this product if it's even reasonably good. It's clear to me from all these 'D&D economy' threads that the d20 market could sure use a well-thought-out product which incorporates fantasy elements, as well as an 'adventuring' economy, into the D&D game, rather than just...

I just can't help it. :)
