    World's Largest Dungeon in actual play [Spoilers!]

    Wouldn't Pro Energy (Acid) work? My group just made 14th level. They've been trying to clear out the Fire Giants and been fighting a battle of attrition. They hit them, kill or perma-blind some and then retreat to rest. After a few battles like this the Giants had 5 members blinded with no way...

    Notes from a Savage Worlds fantasy campaign (updated with 05/28/08 session notes!)...

    I've not run any SW games yet but hope to in the future. I've read though the newest rules book and I think I'll have the same problem as you in this regard. One thing I have thought of: Get index cards or a sheet of paper and write down each player/character. Then stack 3 tokens on/under each...

    Notes from a Savage Worlds fantasy campaign (updated with 05/28/08 session notes!)...

    Good stuff. How was it having to handle 10 guys (5 wolfs and 5 bandits) including the 1 wild card vs other game systems? How do the players llike the leveling up process (I assume they have done so at least once by now)? rv

    'no two creatures more then 30' apart' simple phrase, big fight

    Wow guys. Thanks for the interesting discussion! There are enough people here that agree with my ruling (and at least one convert :) ) that I feel right about how I did it and will keep that ruling going forward. Thanks, rv

    'no two creatures more then 30' apart' simple phrase, big fight

    No... but I did let him pick which of the 2 Giants in question he wanted to effect. If he had pushed to cast another spell I would have let him, but he didn't ask and we just went with it effecting the 2 Giants I ruled he could get. BTW, this is probably start to come up more as the players...

    Magic Vestment

    Ok, thanks. The caster is more in the lines of a Cleric/Tank. He can already get his AC up into the 30's. This might push him to 40 (at level 14... 12th level Cleric). rv

    'no two creatures more then 30' apart' simple phrase, big fight

    Well, yes. I guess what it comes down too is does the edge of a square include the whole square. 2 examples: 1. If I took a piece of string 30' long and laid it from the end of one Giant to the other, the string would end before it got to the other Giant. So, they are not within 30' of each...

    Magic Vestment

    I think I saw a thread on this a while back but I don't remember (or didn't follow it close enough...) the outcome. Can a caster put this on both armor and shield and recive the benifit from both at the same time? I don't see anything that would stop it from working but it seems a bit strong. rv

    'no two creatures more then 30' apart' simple phrase, big fight

    So, in last nights game a cleric casts a Greater Command spell on a group of Fire Giants. When checking the spell details it has the limit listed in the title. Upon checking the distance between two of the Giants there was exacty 30 feet of space between them (6 squares). I said this made them...

    Mystic Theurges and Domain Spells

    As a character goes up in Mystic Theurge levels and gain's +1 divine caster class (cleric) do they gain access to the domain spells they would normally get as a cleric of that level? Thanks, rv

    D&D 5E (2014) Critical Hits Appears to be Next in D&D Archive

    And that is not a bad thought. I just can't see saying "Rolling more dice = BAD!" and then turning around and saying "Being able to roll more dice = GREAT!" On the whole issue, I'm leaning more towards liking the 3.5 version then what I've seen so far on the 4.0 rules. Maybe the parts we've not...

    D&D 5E (2014) Critical Hits Appears to be Next in D&D Archive

    I haven't been able to make it though all the messages yet so maybe this has been pointed out already... But it seems like some of the people saying 'this is a good thing because it reduces the number of dice rolled' are the same ones saying 'this is a good thing because it can trigger a feat...

    Wall of Thorns - Overpowered? How to balance...

    Hah, that is interesting. We've never read it as other then the blindness fades when the glittering does. I always like seeing others viewpoints on things, though it does make for a confusing game. :) Thanks, rv

    Wall of Thorns - Overpowered? How to balance...

    There is actually a lot of this in our game. The party hits a big group of bad guys, fight till nearly out of spells/HP's and run away. They rest up (at a safe place) and come back to find the bad guys have changed their SOP (Guards and teams ready to attack or move around to the rear/gone...

    Wall of Thorns - Overpowered? How to balance...

    I started a thread about this a while back and the consensus was that the effect was permanent as per the low level Blindness spell. One issue with linking the blindness effect to the spell duration is that the spell ends after the caster uses up all the sun beams. I suppose could link it to...
