    What levelling up rules do you use?

    Here is how we have done it since 1994 (have been a few exceptions), not sure what option to use in your poll, maybe the 4th? 1) All monster, magic item, and treasure XP goes into a pot that is divided evenly. This prevents issues and keeps things fair. 2) No excess XP is lost. So if the thief...

    How were these "rules" supposed to work, anyways???

    We did not bump up the skill percentages, they just had to suck it up. Also, most of the thieves people played where some kind of multi-class, many being fighter/thief and even one magic-user/thief. A few times we allowed the thief characters to use the 2e Method if they wanted to allocate...

    I think 1e also gave additional +/- based on the race you chose, and I think we use to use that as well.

    Thats the way we played it, but the DM rolled a 10 on how deep it was, so it was 100 Feet deep. :) Of course both fighters fell in....

    D&D 5E (2014) Against the Giants for 5e

    The problem I have with henchmen or folks running two PCs (which we have done in 1e), is combat slowing to a crawl.

    D&D 5E (2014) Against the Giants for 5e

    Thanks for reading! The group wants me to run Against the Giants (AtG) since only one player has been through it, and its legendary. I have played it 3 times and run it once in years pass. Yes, I know about Storm Kings Thunder (I have read it), but I don’t feel like running that. Also that’s...

    D&D 5E (2014) Bruenor in Out of the Abyss?

    I would have preferred they just pretend it never happened...just pick up where it left off in Cloak & Dagger or the 3rd FRCS.

    Love me some AD&D with str limits for females....we still play it, but I am a straight white man. I just checked....no limits on gender you can play that I can find. Also, we never used STR limits for female PC characters, and still don't. Mostly because no one remembers to do it, but I dont...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: The ranger, revised... overcompensation?

    Our next campaign will have no multiclassing unless its a special event during normal game play, so 1 level dips will not be an issue.

    Yeah I think the gaming scene is doing well overall, in Austin and the surrounding area, we have tons of game stores. My proof is anecdotal, but I have lived here all my life and I have never seen it like this.

    D&D 5E (2014) DM is in a Good Mood but I need help fast! The UA Revised Ranger but how to make it spell-less

    I was surprised my DM went for it since its during the campaign but he is letting me bring in the Revised Ranger tomorrow. I think I might push him more and see if he will allow even more homebrew action. Give an inch and they take a mile! :D What would be fare to give the new UA Ranger in...

    D&D 5E (2014) Training to Level Up

    This is how we did it in our 1e games when we did do it, which was not for every campaign: You can level up during the adventure, even more than once. As long as at some point you pay the cost and have the downtime. We tended to have a lot of downtime so for our games it was not a problem.
