As an offshoot of my low magic gritty fantasy game I hit upon a great set of options to differentiate weapons and add some spice. Given how situational some of these weapons are, it is not uncommon for consummate warriors to carry a variety of weapons for various situations. Weapon Styles...

I've been wrestling with ability scores lately, and it has gotten me to thinking that a few tweaks to what they "do" outside of skills could make 5e a lot nicer. Now, I know that sacred cows are sacred cows, and this won't happen, but if I hung the stars, this might be how I'd do it...

I have just uploaded New Class: The Magician, a low magic caster class to the downloads area. So you've decided to run a gritty, low magic game. Your healing rate is glacial, your coin has been set to a silver standard, and you even differentiated bronze and steel weapons, but there is just...

I have just uploaded Take Adventure into the trenches of the second Weird War to the downloads area. In 1942, war rages across Europe, Asia and Africa. To the Allies, it seems like no end is in sight, and victory is far from certain. From where we sit, we know how it will all turn out... or...

I have been attempting to update a few files I have in the downloads section, but while I managed to upload a new file, twice at that, I cannot find a way to delete old files, there is just this big blank white space with no icons, but some curious mouseovers out in the blankness. It seems...

I have been running a gritty low-magic game for a while now and am about to roll out a weapon and armor masterwork system, as opposed to magical items, and instead of just rehashing +1 bonuses I wanted something... grittier. Right now on my plate are two shield upgrades. Conceptually these...

I have just uploaded Fifth Age: A Hard(er) Science Fiction conversion for 5e DnD to the downloads area. It is the dawn of the 24th century, and an interesting point in time for the human race. Fifth Age chronicles the dawn (perhaps more like early mid-morning) of humanity exploring the stars...

In my ongoing war against the evil spell slot, and for my gritty low magic game, I have finalized my version of spell-less ranger. Leaning heavily on Superiority dice, you've seen most of the building blocks this class is made of. Design highlights are additional maneuvers and setting...

In my ongoing gritty low magic campaign, I have disallowed bards along with the rest of the casters, and have been left with a gap of support type characters. As such, I have allowed the following barbarian path to let the players play support while still being fearsome on the battlefield...

Well, in my continuing quest to strip enough magic out of dnd so that it feels like pulp fantasy, I have hit upon an alternative caster class to help fill the need for wizards, bards and healers. If you liked The Godsman, prepare to love.... Kind of like a cross between a warlock and an...

Recently I am running a low to no magic super gritty medieval style game, and as great as fighters, rogues, barbarians and spellless rangers are, I wanted a divine class. This led me to build a mostly spell-less cleric, the Godsman. The Flavor is campaign specific, but you generally get the...

My campaign has recently taken a more feudal turn, and I dusted off my old resources and polished up my manor managing excel sheet. This is pulled heavily from expeditious retreats magical medieval work, with tweaks and automation. I figured someone else might have use of this, and put it up...
