You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink...unless you charm is, then I might. Unless the water has a hydra in it, then the horse was the smart one in the start. ;)

Oh sure, I completely agree with you. The point buy is 32 already. I am just trying to work on the players who want to roll instead of using point buy. But I like my decision of 2D6+6 reroll 1s. So I think I am going to see how that works out. Thanks for the pointers tho, steamofthesky.

Absolutely nothing with wrong with point buy, I am offering my players a choice between point buy or rolling. Majority usually chooses rolling, which brings us this topic to attention.

You know what, you actually give me a great idea. I don't quite like just roll 2D6 and add 6 because i still leaves an opening for a negative modifier to be applied, in which I am trying to prevent. So I am going to advance on your idea, or the idea in PH2. How about this. Each player will roll...

Hey guys, I got a dilemma I need some help with l. We all know about rolling for stats 4d6 drop the lowest, but a lot of my players are not having fun due to the being restricted with their low rolls and a few suffering with negative modifiers. So I was thinking about letting the group reroll...

The last session was rather interesting to say the least. Two players found themselves thrown In jail for 2 days and 50g bail for claiming a false report to the local authorities, and if that was not enough, the PCs decided to brake another inmates hand to cause a distraction, but leading them...

You bring up some good points Axel, yes this is an underground layer leading into the Underdark. What I am thinking about doing, is just using verbal communication to the best of my ability without having to draw anything, but if I come to a situation where I need to, I will scale the location...

Hey guys, I got a small problem and I thought of a solution, but I want to bring it by you guys first to tell me what you think. I have a predesigned map for an dungeon that my players will encounter later on down the road. My problem is that the map is drawn out in increments of 10ft squares...

Thanks everyone. :) Character creation when smoothly for our first session.

Yep, today is the first day in which I will begin the Shackled City adventure path. This will be my (by far) the biggest challange that I have ever had to take on as a DM. Wish for me the wisdom of St. Cuthbert and the courage of Kord, while I take on this epic challenge taking my players from...

Awesome! I am going to consider what you put down and see how I can add the mechanics to my game. Thanks a lot :)

oh... I feel we have two different opinions the idea of "adventuring" then. I kind of think of the terms adventuring and exploration interchangeable in my games, but hell...what do I know :P and... I am really not trying troll here, I promise, but this is what my dictionary (Merriam Webster)...

I understand what your saying, but when your running a complex campaign I find that it does pay off to have specific locations in a town that allows the players to explore, thus feeding on the idea of roleplaying which gives birth to D&D. Now this is my own opinion of course. :)

I will take that into consideration. What I am look at doing is creating a specific inventory for my players to choose from, however I dont see much of a get around, rather than just looking up items randomly and creating a chart and putting them on a chart. I don't mind using this method, its...

eh, I think that kind of defeats the purpose of my idea. Thanks for your input though.

Okay guys, I am creating a magic shop for my game. I dont know how I am suppose to do this without spending a lot of time on it which I am finding myself doing. I was just wondering if there is a more efficiently and convenient way to do this. I have got a shop that has approximately 50,000g...

So this is what I was thinking, and you guys let me know if it will work. Taking control over what items that PCs can have out of MIC and then only allowing them to appear to play a role on my terms. The PCS can use items out of the DM guide and can create them as they so desire. Here is where I...

You know, I kind of always used intimated along the lines of maybe of a scenario that would imply making a diplomacy check, but as a second resort.

I completely understand what your getting at, and thus is the reason why I have made up my mind, and only make the items that I want available in the magic item compendium to be available under the circumstances that I see fit, but will fit in a background story, if someone wants to look up the...

lol, yes my friend has DMed a lot longer than I have, and over the years of just being in games with him, he is a total rules whore. I cant tell you guys how many times we hold up the games because he needs to look up something in the book to make sure its lagit. Hes pretty lawful, if you ask...
