For me, it felt like a Star Wars movie and looked like a Star Wars movie. I liked the attention to detail in the First Order base. The wall panels and background details looked like what an Imperial base should look like. I agree with the criticism that the Resistance should have sent more...

I attended an "Orphans' Thanksgiving' once. It was for people who wouldn't/couldn't go "home" for the holiday. They were mostly strangers for me, but it was nice to have somewhere to go. Another time, when I was living on campus, we decided to cancel the usual club schedule of dnd games...

Well, modules are modular..... I'd suggest running older material, or free material from drivethurpg, and graft it to the modules you are already planning to run. Mix things up a little. The basic format of most adventures runs like this: Clue leads to cross county trek to dungeon with...

Also, before you include a "New theory rule", make sure you don't mind giving the science officer this limited form of godhood. If he can just 'come up with new' theory, that amounts to actually changing the physics of the in-game universe. If the new theory has a transportation application...

What exactly do you want him to be able to do? "Modulate the EM emissions of the phasors at random to find a setting the haven't adapted to..." would be a new application of existing well understood theory. "Teleport to a ship moving at warp ... by treating space as the thing that is moving"...

Which is why we use editing discussion to make meanings clear. also Maxim 24. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a big gun. And I think we can adapt Maxim 44 : "If it will blow a hole in the ground, it will double as an entrenching tool." to cover "Anything that...

Real Life Science teacher here. The "Evolution Bit" on the basic is way off. also, this part is problematic (almost to the point of stupidity) Expert: PHd degrees in Science. (Research Directors), Increase Intelligence + 1. +1 minimum Tech Points Easy (30) - Theorize a possible outcome from...

But does it really count as "treasure" though if you can't move it? Real estate maybe, but not treasure. Now you've got me thinking of 30 ft statues of Tinkerbell. Also, the teacher in me requires that I mention that Frescos are painted on plaster walls and cannot be moved. Like "The Last...

Just wondering: To what degree do you think "quirky" and "make a degree of sense" can overlap? I mean, how quirky do you think something can be before it is too idiosyncratic to still "make sense"..."to a degree"? Are we talking degree latitude, Celsius, kelvin, or Ph.D in advanced game...

Take a look at the way odnd handled encumbrance. Encumbrance was measured in coins weight for a reason. The overall game was structured as a resource management game. The goal was the escape the dungeon with the highest value of treasure you could carry. copper, silver, and gold coins all...

Does this plant have a move speed? or is is anchored? I'm wondering as I think the situation would be logically different if we are thinking of it as an anchored immobile "fly trap" (FEED ME!) as opposed to thinking of it as basically a re-skinned octopus. If they have the same strength...

What is the wording? Does it say that if it grabs it can constrict immediately, or that it can constrict the next round?

The social consequences would be pretty dire.... Might want to include that the ability to gain xp only starts in late adolescence or early adulthood. Otherwise kindergaden becomes "fight school". Even if it does just start at adulthood, can you imagine the "tiger" parents trying to game the...

The Scarred Lands setting is named after the collateral damage of the creation myth. Standard Titans vs Gods. Most of the meta plot is titanic cults trying to free the titans. most of the monsters are titan servants or animals tainted by the spilt blood of titans.

You might try a 'test of heart' style thing. He has a time limit. Right before he gets to the finish line of whatever the assignment is, right before time is up, he hears cries for help and sees someone being attacked by a wolf some distance away. If he doesn't help, he fails the test. If he...

Are you counting psionics? DMG Adept? Are you concerned with slots, spells known, or spells readied?

Necromancer Games "The Wizard's Amulet 5e" segwaying, to the tower from "The Crucible of Freya" (3.5 but easy to convert, also easy to find). Alter the amulets to passkeys given by the wanna-be lich so his friends can visit him going along with the original storyline. Change out the orcs to low...

A few thoughts: (numbered by major suggestion) 1) ever see "The Chipmunk Adventure" (animated)? 2 teams taking different routes on a round the world balloon race, neither knowing they they are really smuggling diamonds... 2) Zelda syndrome (or just basic computer game and Adventure Path)...

Are there any d20 stats out there for a were-weasel, ferret, or mongoose? or a race based on the weasel type ? I'm thinking of setting up the possibility of a wizard/druid getting merged with his familiar/combanion via "transporter" accident resulting in either a blend or a shapeshifter...

So.... what happened? Has the situation improved? imploded?
