So when you said that "the net effect would be that people would participate in the rituals with even more enthusiasm." the people you were talking about is limited to only high level clerics and not other people? I can see D&D cleric spells as priestly rituals, but not really sacrifices, most...

The best for the thief/assassin cover story is he would always say he would check for traps, I would roll and say "You don't find any." and he would then have the party ranger who had the most hit points open up the door or chest or whatever "just in case."

Not always. In my long term 1e campaign my brother and a friend played wild elf assassins and convinced everybody they were thieves for a couple levels, even though neither of them had any thief skills until third level and my brother was running around with a trident and shield from the start...

One big fighter advantage is that most other classes were not combat balanced against them. In original OD&D the three classes seemed decently combat balanced, the Fighting Man was tough, had great defense and decent offense including the ability to use powerful magic swords. Magic Users were...

But every 1e Monster and god entry has those psionics lines. Which are just taking up extra space since there are already monster stat lines for special attacks and defenses where this could come in.

It does not have to be a bad faith thing. I have two friends who I consider great DMs who I really do not ever want to play a cleric or warlock in their games (and paladin in one of them) because what they consider the cool parts of the classes (specific ways to handle the god/patron...

But sacrificing to the gods in D&D does not unerringly cause a wall of fire to surround your city when enemies attack. The closest would be high level clerics having consistent powerful magic. How the gods interact with people in D&D varies greatly, often there is a don't act directly on the...

From B/X Basic

Magic Users xp charts started slow but accelerated once they got going, noticeably around 6th level when they got multiple fireballs things became easier. It then slowed down again at really high levels. From 7th to 12 MU levels though they are often higher level than the fighters who are just...

Yes, but it is a 1,000 page $100 PDF.

Another pact magic model is something like the 3.5 binder from Tome of Magic who makes a daily pact from a variety of vestiges for powers for a day. Mechanically you make a check for the pact to see if you are in complete control or whether the vestige has influence on you. The various vestiges...

So to get back to the fighter, the ranged weapons thing is pretty striking. Sling is not on the 1e PH cleric weapons list table although the class description only prohibits edged or pointed weapons. In B/X it is explicitly called out as allowed as a non-cutting edge weapon and in 2e they are...

Apollo, Poseidon, and the other top tier Olympians explicitly did not create the world, they just currently rule it from Mount Olympus. Grandma/Great-Grandma Gaia predates them. :)

In B/X Basic it is clear for the xp maximum: "MAXIMUM XP: A character should never be given enough XP in a single adventure to advance more than one level of experience. For example, if a beginning (0 XP) 1st level fighter earns 5000 XP (a rare and outstanding achievement), he or she should...
