Different soundtracks for different things. City Music: Skyrim, Witcher, a few Square Enix games. Tavern Music: Witcher 3's Gwent matches music fits perfectly. Dungeon - exploration: All themes from the PC game Dark Maus fit perfectly. Dungeon - battle - easy: battle music from the PS One game...

Sylvester voice: YETHHHHHHH!!!!

I think that, just like suffocation is equally deadly for a 1st lvl character and a 20th level character (1 min + Con modifier holding breath limit), lava should be equally deadly for low and high level characters. Lava should be instant death. And if that creates problems with certain...

Alright Morrus, sorry. Wasn't so much making fun at the guy as much as I was making puns.

Heh ... Chris Cocks. Hahah! ... what? Don't give me that look. You all thought the same thing.

Okay, here are the rules in a more complete form: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY This is a system to be used for large-scale battles between armies, no matter how many soldiers belong in a unit, how many armies, and what abilities they have...

I will write about this tomorrow - basically the PCs and the monster commanders are called VIPs, they possess the ability to find and take out particularly troublesome units or be a tool to roleplay a particular type of encounter (i.e. have the PCs go and sabotage the ballista of the hobgoblin...

I will probably update the rules tomorrow and give it a more concrete feel - although most of the things that annoyed you guys are still there. As for the math, I don't think it's really hard if the army owner has an army sheet which has the amount of hp at 100, 75, 50 and 25 percent...

Thanks for taking the time to comment on this. This is a very rough draft I'm thinking about, so the armor has more than a few chinks. #1: Yup, that's a typo on my part. #2: For simplicity sake. #3: Because that's how Handling Mobs worked in 'to-hit' situations. Based on the enemy's AC and...

This is a system I just came up with, and I want to hear your thoughts. Basically, I take the rules of "Handling Mobs" in DM Guide page 250, and expand on them a little. My design is the following: An army has a total of hit points based on Monster HP x Number of soldiers. The army has five...

Temperatures seem to be rising a lot on this thread ... In the end, a number of gamers are dissatisfied with the lack of digital tools, and it's fine to voice that displeasure - that's how supply and demand works. But there's no need to aggressively challenge other people's opinions. As long...

Still, I don't understand why Paizo's sales are (apparently) not hurt with their books also released as PDF, while Wizards' will be. I understand why people think that Wizard going digital (besides printable) will hurt them in the long/short run, I just don't understand why it doesn't hurt Paizo.

About Monster Lore. I think the MM of 5E did a wonderful job with bold titled paragraphs of the monster - it gives you a way to have the PCs roll multiple intelligence checks - each success giving them the info of a paragraph, but the DM can choose to increase the DC by 5 for every new...

I can't even imagine how necrotic damage can be used to 'knock someone out', but the rules are rules. :D

Sucky spell? I don't know ... having the ability to do a 3d10 damage roll as a 1st level spellcaster isn't bad at all, imo.

Inflict Wounds: "Make a melee spell attack against a creature you can reach. On a hit, the target takes 3d10 of necrotic damage." So what happens on a miss? Does the spell dissipate (that is, it's lost and the spell slot is wasted), or it remains 'active' until you dissipate it yourself or it...

Or, it two words, Nostalgia Goggles. :P Frankly, I love 5E because it took us to a time where the rules were simple and the game was about fun, not mathematics. The first thing I said when I read the rules of 3E was "They turned it into a video game", not because of shallow writing, but because...
