GURPS is another 80s one that has fantasy as a core option. Point buy instead of class and level system, stats cut down to four (str, dex, health (con) and int), lots of granular skills, 3d6 instead of d20 for rolls gives a bell curve result, hp are like D&D but generally start and stay around...

Horrible distraction plan. Burns hurt!

Aslan was originally part of the Forgotten Realms, later renamed Nobanion. I based my Golarion ice witch queen of Irresen on the White Witch pretty hard, even had the wolves talk in running the associated adventure path.

Time Traveler's Codex Mutants & Masterminds 3e Undead, Unquiet Dead: ? Ghost: ? Ghostly Advisor: ? Spirit Follower: ? Vampire, Old World Terror: ? Zombie: ?

Good catch. There is more weirdness the more you look. I am guessing the two entries for hammer +2 with different xp and sale values are a typo. Maces go +1, +2, disruption, +4. Scimitar only comes in +2 varieties (but then the description gives options for them to be like other magic swords).

Usually at my friends' (a married couple) house, sometimes one of them are the DM, sometimes another of us in the group is. The last year plus face to face campaign I ran was at their house. They have a young kid (kindergartner) and we play in their first floor or basement after the kid is down...

i.e., e.g., c.f., etc. When he said q.v. what did he actually mean? Did he mean it that way in the actual specific instance? Unreliable usage is kind of unreliable. The girdle use of q.v. is not quite the same as the use of q.v. in erase. In erase it says it can be used against glyphs of...

I used this as a house rule in my 3.5/Pathfinder 1e games (see "Magic is Easy" in my Freeport games' house rules). It makes lower stat characters more viable and more multiclass caster options more viable. I think of core multiclass casters generally as a big power drop compared to SAD full...

I think I read the Hobbit around the same time I got into D&D, age 8, second grade. Not sure when I saw the 1977 movie, probably on TV sometime after it came out, I don't think I saw it in the theater. I know I had one of those kid records of it with an accompanying illustrated book and that...

The hammer, gauntlets, and girdle? Yeah, your talking about the hammer, gauntlets, and girdle.

It is written ambiguously, thus 1e rules lawyer arguments to be made. The girdle text says outright the two stack with any hammer, the gauntlets suggest it is desirable in combo with a girdle and any hurled weapon (so spears, axes, daggers, darts too) but does not state why, and of course the...

It was the 1e Oriental Adventures. The 1e Kara Tur boxed set just looks like a list of TSR people in the credits though I do not recognize Jay Batista or Deborah Christian
