They've also produced two other editions, each of which has legions of fans, they've reprinted old editions and re-introduced a vast range of PDF titles. Rarely but sometimes the company's decisions have irritated me. However, I congratulate them for the efforts they have made to appeal to fans...

Surely it sounds like this?

The first - and most of each of the last two - chapters are system agnostic but there are plenty of ideas throughout that could be grafted onto other systems with very little effort. I think it's one of WotC's better 3e era books. It compares favourably with the Races Of… titles. The opening...

To my recollection, this was a big deal, certainly among gamers I knew at the time.

I prefer rolls. All characters are disposable, as are monsters; I roll their stats too. Yep, from every little kobold to every major NPC. A few years ago, I ran a short campaign in which every PC (and every creature) was rolled 3d6 in order, before being modified accordingly. That particular...

Other Word Mapper does look promising. I'll keep my eye on that. Thanks for the link.

Sorry for the late reply; just been catching up on a few pages I'd missed. I haven't but one of my players once did. Grak of the Yeti Tribe (a 3e neanderthal). Grak was brilliant.* He often didn't get the memo when the party was facing imminent danger but once he saw his friends get hurt, he was...

I found these guys yesterday and thought that they might find the attention they craved if I introduced them to people over here.

D'oh. I knew that and meant to mention it. Then I had to make a chilli and… Thanks.

The first generation of S1 players couldn't even do that. There was no MM2. I point this out not for reasons of pettifoggery but because I think it backs up your argument about the module's design in general.

All of the above, as everyone else has already said. They did learn from what had gone before but, in my opinion, they also introduced entirely new mistakes or missteps. For instance, I always associate the term 'railroad' in the context of RPG adventures with Dragonlance. Maybe that's unfair...

Your memory is admirable. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. With deity's favoured weapon, yes.

Thank you for the quick reply. I thought VBA heavy-lifting might be at the heart of the issue. Well, please continue the good work and I'll look at buying into Office just for Excel!

I confess to being incapable of creating or editing anything but the simplest spreadsheet. When I do need one, I use Apple's Numbers or Google Sheets. Heroforge Anew does not appear to be entirely compatible with either (the sheet opens in Google Sheets but with errors; Numbers just falls over)...

Welcome to the boards, DrAlexander and Omegastrike. I like this poll, because it wasn't easy to choose an option. In the end, I chose electronic tool suite, because (a) my laptop has been my primary DM's aid for years now and (b) a good suite of tools can save me precious time, and help me...

Sure. But grinding the game to a halt for a discussion, not just a query about the placement of a monster doesn't seem like an appropriate place to have that kind of in-depth communication, to some of us. That certainly speaks to the issue but that's kind of my point. The payers should be...

Great news! However, before you leave, can I just remind you of Dandu's suggestion, above?

In my home-brew campaign setting, I reworked the MM goblin. Instead of making the goblins good riders (with racial ride skill bonuses) à la the MM, my subterranean dwelling goblins were good climbers, enabling them to move with greater alacrity up, down and along stalactites, stalagmites, the...
