    D&D General Do You D&D OSR?

    He rolled two 5s, an 8, and everything else was a zero mod, 9-12. He rolled several more times and still couldn't get to zero or above. I changed his dice, and finally, he hit zero but the rest of us were at +2, so the DM let him try again and he got +1, which is all zeros and a 1.

    D&D General Do You D&D OSR?

    Eh...I would have missed a couple of magic saves without my +2 bonus from INT and the INT bonus subtracts 2 days from researching and scribing scrolls. It makes a difference for my magic user. The rogue's bonus with a bow has also been a close call a few times. If the DM had said, no rerolling...

    D&D General Do You D&D OSR?

    One of the nice things about LotFP (B/X), which we run, is if your modifiers total under zero, you reroll, but I can see someone rolling a 16, for stats 9-12, and a 4, and that is 0. We had a guy who rolled under zero four times till he finally got +1 total.

    D&D General Do You D&D OSR?

    Yes, we are playing a B/X OSR as an engine for Aaron Reed's Skycrawl (sky ship addon). I will say it's difficult to find players for OSRs in person in Washington, DC. We had a player move and are looking to fill 1-2 spots. 5E is really big here.

    OSR Anyone playing Aaron A. Reed's Skycrawl (or downcrawl) with an OSR?

    Oh, yeah, our DM had us a find a notebook (with loot) with some already filled in to update ours. later on, we bought a couple of answers form an orcery shop, and later yet, traded some with an orcerer that approached our ship on a barge. Oh, and we randomly tried Lazul Lode on our own (because...

    OSR Anyone playing Aaron A. Reed's Skycrawl (or downcrawl) with an OSR?

    I've been having a lot of fun playing Skycrawl (as a player) as an add on to an OSR, and it has been a lot of fun. You explore different floating islands in your skyship and combine different "heavy elements" for magical effects. Right now our party is wizard, rogue, cleric, and fighter and the...

    OSR Old school wizards, how do you play level 1?

    Ok, I am playing skycrawl (love it) but the engine is LotFP with the edgelord stuff (like 1st level summon) removed. I looked at the rules careful to see what equipment I was allowed and realized I could wear leather armor and still cast spells. And I could use a shortbow and not use spells. So...

    1st level characters. We just entered a dungeons through a 20' up secret door in a huge tree. after dealing with some traps and having our rogue bitten by a black widow, we found a large room (filled with bones) with a well in it. Instead of just entering, two characters combined the spells...

    Looking for a Game (DND 5E) online, EST on a Weekday evening

    Hi! I used to play years ago and started playing again a few months ago. I'm looking for an online campaign (but I could do one-shots in the meantime). I'm particularly interested in Strixhaven and Spelljammer but am open to other 5E settings. Trying to work on my DND roleplaying skills. Big fan...

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    We spent 2 hours "discussing" how to handle a kidnapping situation. The DM even had an NPC try and talk us through it but the party is all neutrals (CN and LN, but I'm TN) mostly more interested in keeping the ransom money (we are allowed to IF we save the kids) than actually saving the 5 kids...
