    Saga Encounter Building by XP Budget, Revisited

    The party's level stays the same -- but the foes' CLs are lowered. It's in Starships of the Galaxy, but here's a quick summary: For battles where the characters are in vehicles, you need to determine the "Vehicle Difficulty Modifier" (VDM), which is: {(CL of their ship) - (crew quality...

    Saga Encounter Building by XP Budget, Revisited

    I haven't tried converting HTML to PDF before, but it shouldn't be too hard. I'll put that on the to-do list! -TG :cool:

    Saga Encounter Building by XP Budget, Revisited

    A while back I built an "XP Budget" model of encounter building in Saga Edition to a) take advantage of one of 4E's stronger concepts, and b) plug what I felt to be a major hole in the Saga Edition ruleset. Well, some time has passed, and particularly with the new Battlestation Rules in Galaxy...

    Fourthifying healing in SWSE

    Interesting thoughts re: CT movement being persistent. The idea wasn't so much to make them "all persistent all the time" as much as to make a Treat Injury check (and thus "treating the wound") the fix, instead of standing back and taking a deep breath to go back up the CT. Basically, I want hit...

    Never get on the boat.

    I've begun at least two campaigns with shipwrecks, does that count? ;) I also did the classic "kraken attacks" moment in one campaign, and "waylaid by pirates" moment in another. I loves me some swashbuckling, indeed! -The Gneech :cool:

    Fourthifying healing in SWSE

    In my game, I changed Second Wind to be usable per encounter, but treat all movement down the condition track as "persistent" until the character is treated (either via Treat Injury or a Medpac). There are some talents and feats that need tweaking in that context, and it removes the "recovery"...

    How are melee characters expected to deal with flying creatures?

    Marking is LoS, isn't it? (Don't have my books handy.) That's one way to get them to come to you -- and in fact, half the purpose of the ability. -The Gneech :cool:

    Tiles and Maps, Actually Printed -- NOT Pdf. Any Ideas?

    I'm pretty sure I've got most if not all of those, at least from the release of 3.0 forward. Thanks tho! -TG :cool:

    Tiles and Maps, Actually Printed -- NOT Pdf. Any Ideas?

    The Dwarven Forge stuff is nice, but I'm leaning more towards 2D maps/tiles than 3D terrain specifically because of the price/storage issues. I'll look into Rackham, thanks! -TG :cool:

    Tiles and Maps, Actually Printed -- NOT Pdf. Any Ideas?

    Well, we all know that Dungeon Tiles/Galaxy Tiles are awesome. Many of us know that Paizo's Flip-Mats and Gamemastery tiles are slightly less awesome due to being thinner cardstock, but still quite good. I have recently managed to score some tiles from Christopher West's personal site, even...

    Saga Edition Quickie NPC/Critter Levelling

    As you may know, I've sorta given up on the pursuit of Saga Edition as a vehicle for a sword-and-sorcery game, mainly because 4E does the job well enough if you are careful about what you allow in. However, I haven't given up SE for other stuff, not the least of which includes, y'know, my...

    Which edition poll for October

    I moved to 4E because Windows Vista killed my copy of E-Tools; so far it's great for building adventures, but not so great for player characters. -The Gneech :cool:

    Galaxy at War

    I finally got a chance to look at my copy of this over the weekend, and all I have to say is... BATTLESTATION RULES FTW! It's "page 42" for SWSE, cleverly disguised as rules for building bases. Very clever. :) Although it could have used some damage ranges. ;) -The Gneech :cool: Edit...

    Adventure long forgotten

    Could it be Wrath of the Minotaur and/or Eye of the Wyvern? These were both great-but-tiny "fast play rules" mini-adventures put out near the end of the 2e era. -The Gneech :cool:
