No, you don't. The license defines Product Identity. If you declare something as Product Identity that doesn't meet the definition provided by the license, your declaration is of the same legal effect as a declaration that you are the Emperor of the United States. The definition of "Open Game...

In practice, I find "My back row is three magic-users who were originally 9th-level rangers, carrying fine long bows" is quite effective enough in Pools of Darkness. After all, arrows fire at 2/round anyway. (The shop in Mulmaster sells fine long bows, so run ahead and visit the city early to...

I mean, it would be interesting if WotC revised its book development process to an "art notes first" model. It would at least theoretically be possible, though it would constrain the writers rather more than the current system (used not just by WotC, but pretty much everyone else, where you...

Oh, I seem to have missed several of these. Anyway, in case those reading along didn't realize it, the reason the goblins in the Podol Plaza encounters swapped from surrendering to fleeing when their morale broke is because his characters started getting slowed down by the treasure they were...

I'm assuming he means the College of Dance from playtest packet #6.

Given how extensively the monk was reworked in the 8th PHB playtest packet, you might want to make some specific claims about what the unaddressed problems were.

PDF is an open standard, curated by the ISO. There are many dedicated readers for the format from rival vendors, and support for reading the files in major web browsers and word processors. The format is a major part of the product strategy of a Fortune 500 company, and there is a full set of...

It's substantiated. They are continuing to translate into "French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish."

Not really. There's a serious conceptual difference between "Every single being in the universe who is Lawful Good speaks the Lawful Good alignment tongue, which they didn't have to learn and which they cease to be able to speak if they change alignment, and the only non-Lawful Good beings who...

Amazing. I mean, the cartoon was cancelled before TSR bought the Realms.

Mm-hmm. No wonder you kids these days can't afford a fine longbow for everyone in the party, what with your insistence on staying at inns that serve avocado toast.

I note that once the slums are cleared, you can safely rest anywhere there. Which means that a real penny-pincher can save a platinum piece each time by ducking through the gateway to the slums before resting, rather than going to an inn.

You're actually confusing 1e (where elf multiclasses could, in fact, cast spells while wearing any armor) and 2e (where they were initially limited to elven chain, and then later elven plate was added). Pool of Radiance accurately reflects the 1e rule.

There was also using Player's Option: Spells & Magic to add Crusader, Monk, and Shaman classes.

Not much. Oh, it was derided as a too-soon cash grab by WotC, and there was definite criticism of WotC for "they fixed things that weren't broken", but approximately nobody sticking with 3rd called other members of the community who were switching to 3.5 traitors. But then, approximately none of...

I do grant that WotC never came out and explicitly said, in so many words . . . "We're trying to patch up pubic relations after our missteps around the OGL. And, of course, we want to do that at minimal expense and effort (that's why we went with CC-BY so suddenly, after all, it was faster and...
