    Level Up (A5E) Conjure spells

    I think the casting times on 1 minute vs 1 action are the same as the original O5e summoning spells. In my own games I'll probably house-rule the rapid casting to be 1 round only, as I can't see any of my players having fun sitting around doing nothing for 2-5 combat rounds.

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    I'm playing now with adding NPCs to the roll20 sheet. Here's some observations and suggestions: Saving throws?: There doesn't seem to be a way to roll or modify saving throws (without adding them all as skills) Bloodied HP: Since it's listed in the Monstrous Menagerie, it might be convenient...

    Level Up (A5E) What A5E rules do you intend to import into an existing 5E campaign?

    I run 2 campaigns. One of them we'll be incorporating most of the new mechanics from Levelup. In my other group, the players prefer the more traditional game, but I'll probably be sneaking in Levelup monsters and maybe a journey or two.

    Level Up (A5E) Character Sheet: Exploration Knacks?

    OK! Makes sense, thanks for the reply!

    Level Up (A5E) Character Sheet: Exploration Knacks?

    I have question about the Levelup character sheet design. There's a boxed section dedicated to Exploration Knacks on the second page, but as far as I can see only Rangers get Exploration Knacks. Would it make more sense to just expand the Features section and Rangers could put their knacks...

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    (Me again. I know.) Possible Bugs: When I add Tools, the roll button next to the tool doesn't do anything. Size: Only allows numbers, where I would expect to put "M" or type "Medium" for example.

    D&D General How Long Did You Play the Different Editions of D&D? (+)

    BECMI: Got started with the Tom Moldvay (Erol Otus cover) basic set in 1981, played till about 1982 when we discovered we could be Advanced! 1e: 1983-1989 2e: 1989-1993 - Stopped playing regularly right around the plethora of "Kit" books. (1994-1999: Wasn't doing a lot of D&D playing; I...

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    Initiative: Currently Initiative is a static text label on the character sheet ("Ability or Skill Check"). With understanding of the design intent (i.e., LU5e can use various skills or attributes for initiative) without a dedicated Initiative roller the Roll20 turn tracker can't be...

    Level Up (A5E) What's your favorite thing about Level Up?

    There's a lot to like, but Combat Maneuvers was a big selling point for me!

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    Another request, if I may be so bold... An ability to add a static modifier to skills. Sometimesthere are items or other factors in my game that might add +2 to Stealth, for instance. On Roll20's vanilla 5e sheet, there's a little gear icon that opens up a page where you can add those sorts of...

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    I think it's a little hard to see, but there's a d20 icon right above the ability modifier for each ability. That should roll an unmodified ability check OOF, no I was totally wrong. That button was for rolling Saving Throws. Yeah, there doesn't seem to be an unmodified ability roll. That would...

    What tropes do you want to see more of in sci-fi RPGs?

    This comes very close to describing Iain M. Banks' Culture books, which I highly recommend to anyone interested in these themes. They can be read in any order, but I like to suggest The Player of Games as a good entry-point. And all that being said, it would be a fascinating sci-fi setting!

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    Regarding importing data from the standard O5e sheet, I believe it tries to match up variable names.

    Level Up (A5E) So where do ya'll plan to start with LU?

    I've been running a game using the playtest Levelup rules (level 5 characters). I plan to upgrade it to the full-version asap. I'm also running a second more conventional 5e game, but I still plan to sneak in some Levelup Monsters and Journey rules into that campaign.

    Yes, Roll20 only allows 1 character sheet type for each game you create.

    Homebrew Level Up Roll20 Character Sheet is live!

    File under "Be Nice to Have..." I tried importing NPCs using the "Transmogrifier" from a standard 5e game with the following results: Name and Ability scores do come through (str, dex, etc), but that's about it. It does not auto-calculate the bonus modifiers. Nothing else comes through. Even...

    Level Up (A5E) What class are YOU most excited to play?

    While I mainly DM, I'm excited to see the final draft of the aforementioned Ranger, but I'm also very interested to see the Marshal in action!

    Level Up (A5E) Plan your pledge tiers...

    I see... sorry if I led you astray then! I tacked on an extra item to my pledge but I didn't realize the extra items weren't all there. Maybe one of the VIPs can assist!
