    Fantasy Concepts: An OGL Fantasy Saga Project

    A Special Thanks... As an aside, I would like to list all of the contributors and supporters that have joined in on this thread in support of this endeavor. My thoughts are to list everyone at least by their ENWorld names, but if you'd like me to include your mundane name in addition, I would...

    If X were OGL, I'd write Y

    Have you ever considered coming up with a post-apocalyptic fantasy setting similar to Dark Sun in concept, but uniquely enough yours that you could develop and publish your own stuff for it, and still capture the flavor of what you liked about Dark Sun? Just a thought, Flynn

    Fantasy Concepts: An OGL Fantasy Saga Project

    Status Update - 10/18/07 Good Evening, My Friends: The Magic draft, which includes notes on spell conversion, has been completed. It appears that my work, at least on the initial draft is done. The rest lies in the hands of EditorBFG, although if he needs the assistance, I am more than willing...

    D&D 4E What 4E class do you most want to try out?

    I'm curious about the warlord myself, so I put that down... Looking Forward To Seeing The Rules, Flynn

    Fantasy Concepts: An OGL Fantasy Saga Project

    Nope, that's not me, that's The_Gneech. I like his work, but as Lord Trinian says above, you need SECR to use it properly. Also, it's more Sword & Sorcery, a good style, but one that doesn't capture the manner in which D&D is usually portrayed. The_Gneech worked on his project about the same...

    [Rules Compendium] Degree of Success/Failure Informs the Narrative

    The runequest levels of success are present in D20 already. In the PHB, I seem to recall a paragraph or two that describes succeeding by +10 being an exceptional success and by +20 as an amazing success. Sadly, I can't find it in the SRD, which probably indicates that it is either closed...

    have 3rd parties gotten the srd yet?

    I found this: http://forums.gleemax.com/showpost.php?p=13462933&postcount=132 However, the referenced post was made at the end of Gen Con, and so timing may have changed with the changes in the release schedule for the three core books. Hope This Helps, Flynn

    A detailed town in the DMG: your preference?

    The way I figure it, WOTC could publish a town as a module or as a web enhancement. I'd rather not have a module in my DMG, when those pages could be filled with more stuff on world building, adventure creation, villian creation, and other, more widely applicable, material. But I realize that...

    Pick your "Starter Town"

    I notice that there's no option for not including a town at all. Hmmm.... The way I figure it, you can publish a town as a module or something. I'd rather not have a module in my DMG, when it could be filled with more stuff on world building, adventure creation, villain creation, and other...

    What would your next campaign be?

    I just got done running a Sword and Planet style game using the Grim Tales rules set, which seems almost tailor-made for such a game. It was a blast. Now, I'm building a somewhat standard fantasy game, at the end of an Age of Legends. More Later, Flynn

    Experience Points and D&D Economy - What I'd Like To See

    bruceparis: The XP system you mentioned in the original post reminds me of the "OGL Alternatives: Alternate Advancement System", which I wrote last year and released through Samardan Press. It is very similar to your concept, and incorporates a number of different criteria (which the GM selects...

    Fantasy Concepts: An OGL Fantasy Saga Project

    Another Status Update... Because of recent work concerns, I haven't had the opportunity to work on the magic and spell sections like I would have preferred. However, I am making an effort to get that section done by Thursday, in hopes of still meeting our deadline. With Regards, Flynn

    So, what published 3e adventures are you always going to remember?

    For a surprise entry, let me put in the following: "Heart of Amun Khonshu", an Adventure Keep mini-adventure by Alderac I also enjoyed "Against the Barrow King", also by Alderac, but with a few modifications. Enjoy, Flynn

    Question to the Designers from Edena_of_Neith

    It could be that the gods do, indeed, know that this is coming, but are bound by Laws beyond Mortal Understanding that prevents them from changing Divine matters. If so, Mystra knows what's coming, knows She cannot change it, and perhaps even knows that She cannot pass that information on to Her...

    Do you play in games you aren't enjoying?

    In the past, I have played in games I did not enjoy, and from those experiences, I've learned that my time is valuable to me. I am a lenient person, but once it is obvious that I'm not having fun, I do not feel bad about leaving a game. Of course, I do so as tactfully and as respectfully as I...

    This Means WAR!!!! (My players stay OUT!)

    This is what I use: http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=4037 It works great, and allows for a high level of abstraction, so that the actual battle doesn't eat up your game time and you can move on to the rest of the adventure. With Regards, Flynn

    Attn: Gamers in Austin!

    Looks like I need to make a trip to the local HPB (I live near the one that holds Ari's stuff), and maybe a trip over to Lamar as well. Thanks for the update, guys, Flynn

    Other plastic minis compatible with D&D minis

    Kris: If you don't mind me asking, how'd you convert those mage knight and Dreamblade minis? Mostly, I'm asking how you prepped them to put them on a base. Was it just some very careful cutting or something? With Regards, Flynn

    D&D 4E OK OK. A *NOT* negative thread from me re: 4E

    For me, my three favorite things about 4E so far have been: 1. Focus on reducing GM prep time (separate monster construction, simplified stat blocks, etc.) which will help alleviate burnout. 2. More things to do for players that don't lock them into "do nothing" rounds in combat. 3...
