Another way the GWM can lose a weapon is some variation of disarm. In 3.5, I had a monk who had spent the feats for disarm and had great fun taking the opposition's powerful weapons away from them.

If the character is important, it stays with the party. Ran by either the GM, an existing player temporarily, or a new player. When possible, the character gets eased off the stage. Unless the new player really likes the existing character. Might as well be mostly honest with why the player...

Suggest finding a small module and run that first. Get used to being on the DM side of things. If possible temporarily break the group in to 2 groups of 4. Run each group through the same module. Fix mistakes from the first run in the 2nd. These learning runs can use temporary characters...

The players made a decision to dump Int for reasons. Now you expect the DM to give you a Get Out of Jail Free card because the dungeon is Int based. Nope. The party is stuck with it. One option is go back to town and Hire a competent secret door finder. Seems you are loaded with Chr so...

Ditto on the being fixed. Good job and thanks!

If I am NOT logged in, can see the last page fine. And even post a reply(but it then asks for a login, after which it will post.) But once logged in, the error returns even on the reply just posted.

Yes, getting same thing.

There, fixed. ;)

My problem is sometime remembering too well. Was that spell/rule from PF1,3.5,3.0,2,1,Original?

All this encumbrance talks sure highlights the advantage the Dwarves used to have(still have?). Naked or shambling mound of gear, they move 20 ft. The different speed thing is a separate issue. A lightly loaded human with a feat/trait that adds 5+ feet to the basic speed, so 35 vs an...

I think you left out the part about dealing the cards out to each player to form a supply hand. At least your advantages imply each player has a hand vs drawing the unknown top card for each die 'roll'. Assuming player hands, interesting idea. One possible downside is if a combat(or other...

Law and Order: pre 9/11 and post 9/11. Blue Bloods: the various public relations issues the police deal with. Two different series but the equipment and procedures used on Emergency! and Chicago Fire.

Maybe if the party is a set of grizzled 6+ level characters. A party of 1st levels isn't going to be much better then a set of just off the bus boot camp folks. Saying a 1st level fighter, wizard, bard, druid and cleric are all going to have learned tight military tactics at the various...

Encourage the party to travel with a caravan. Perhaps as additional guards. Perhaps just the larger group is safer theory. Now you have opportunities for social events. Maybe the caravan has a 1/2 way there feast and celebration. If there is a hostile encounter, it isn't totally on the...

By the book, probably no. But it is nice to reward innovative thinking so maybe let it work IF the face carving is good enough quality. But I agree with the above comment about what the plant saw in life. So no 'who passed through two hours ago' answers. Unless the critter on the other side...

Depends on the group. If mostly murder hobos, the 1-5 play loop is pretty close. If the group wants non combat encounters, you have a few more options. For both types, #2 can include monsters that run away. Are they leaving just to save their own life? Or to warn nearby groups? Rally...

Assuming that a party will maintain a rigid marching order through miles of travel seems unrealistic. Someone slips and another stops to give a hand up. A shoelace or strap comes loose and the character stops to deal with it. Character C gets sick and tired of Character B's mess kit clanging...

We are color coding goblins now?

Dislike the showing only the QR code and not a text link. For a company that touts inclusiveness, why are they excluding folks that haven't bought into the personalized tracking device(smartphone) ecology? Plus including ball bearings as beginning equipment seems odd for a fantasy themed...

One trick I have used a few times to encourage players to be ready is to declare their character "Stunned and Amazed" if the player is taking way too long. The slow character takes an involuntary delay action and the next character in the initiative order goes. When the slow player is finally...
