I've been working on my Drow campaign for more than a year now, and it is almost ready to launch. I want to show off the player races and ask for your opinions. The major drow houses are each represented as a different Drow subrace, with each house having some...

The best pre-written modules I have had the pleasure to read were "Wrath of the River King" and "Courts of the Shadow Fey", both by Wolfgang Baur. These were open-world, Sandbox mini-settings with lots of adventures and mini-stories thrown in, and they provided sophisticated mysteries to solve...

Maybe they meant it as "lifted to the air, hooks driving into armor, clothes, and skin" Mind you, the creature's damage output is clearly very unbalanced, and he is expected to insta- kill most PC within two rounds (or one round if it gets to surprise PC's from above)

Now we ARE talking mechanics now, right? So my question to ENWorld is this: Do high level games play fluently and as fast- paced as low level ones? We were promised short and fast combat turns and general task resolution, and I wanted to know if this premise still holds at the higher levels of...

Well, you got me there, maybe not simpler, but still far from complicated. I found it very easy to remember during combat because no numbers were involved. simply mark Minion #1 and three hollow circles beside it on a page, and place a check per hit the minion suffers. I didn't mean to say the...

The problem with minions is that they become completely useless at High Paragon through Epic levels, so in my games I tend to allow them to survive a little longer, about a hit per tier. Plus, I love to make them cooler than they are presented- maybe give them a special trait or two to differ...

Cool feats, I'd use these in a heartbeat, especially Flee!, which is by fur one of the funniest and useful feats I've seen. The Dragonborn feats are so full of gold it hurts, which seems to be the point. Keep it up!

I looks pretty cool, the math seems fine by my standards. I actually think it has that classic folklore feel to it that makes me want to write adventures around, same as the satyr or the unicorn, whose design I really liked. Good job, I'd like to see some paragon- level versions of that as a...

I tried something a bit different; I Googled "Tiles" and found a picture of some square bath tiles or something. Than using my limited skills I copied several of these onto a Word document and moved them around, stretching them to the size I wanted (1X1") and pasting them on top of each other so...

Well, I've played a 3.5 game for a couple of years that sounded much like your description- because poor adventure design on the part of the DM is edition proof... If my DM (and I guess Yours should listen too) were running a fun game that involved more than mere Hack N' Slash, well, it would be...

Damn, Ninja'ad, twice!:rant:

your idea is both simple and combines humor and creepiness to make it genius. I had an idea of an assassination attempt in an inn- A PC gets the special "Exotic Cocktail" with some ice cubes, only these aren't ICE cubes....:eek: Another idea is having one of those as a companion or Familiar...

When I'm building a character such as a fighter, first I'd think if a power works well with his role, and than I'll consider strongly against dull powers that lack that extra kick, like Brute Strike. Sure, it's balanced, But Man is it boring compared to the alternatives, all of which help make...

For a few years now I've been rolling four d6's, choosing the highest three. In addition, I roll seven times and pick the highest six for attributes. That way I get high results most of the times, and me and my players are happy with it. In comparison, the suggested Point-buy system seems too...

I'm totally stealing this hook! Is it just me, or the DM gets the most Alchohol mileage then most of the players? Plus, what about A drinking game when the PCs get into a Bar Fight, getting more druk, angry and hazy as the battle ensues? Just a thought, were the PCs also taking sips from hidden...

I'll be 18 in july, started playing AD&D in 1997, DM since 2004. Actually, everyone I know stopped playing around the ages of 18 to 21, 'couse recruitment to the army is obligatory in Israel. Most israeli roleplayers return to good ole HackN'Slash when we're released from duty, though :cool: ...

I can see any character being a Demigod, but only one an archmage or a Deadly Trickster. Kinda lame, dont you think? Guess I'll decide once I'll read through it all. If all those ED's only fit one class, we will see tons of Demigods roaming the land 'couse there aren't enough options to go...

Skimming through MM2, I spotted a cool solo: Spell Weaver- this guy has 6 hands and can cast several spells per turn, and uses several magic items at once (might be evoking a ritual while attacking two- three PC's with spells, etc.) Other ideas: Ragewind (also MM2, undead hurricane that carries...

Man, you creep me out ;) I probably won't be able to get a hold on them cores before july (Damm slow Amazon shipping rates to Israel!), but I have my plans... (my sister: "When will we get to America? I'm tired..." me: "Shut up and keep swimming!")
