    Kickstarter Kickstarter: Rules-Neutral Monster Manual for Asian/Oriental Games

    Hey everyone, I just launched a Kickstarter today for my third yokai encyclopedia. Yokai are the ghosts, spirits, and monsters of traditional Japanese folklore, some of which have inspired D&D monsters, or have directly become D&D monsters themselves. While not strictly written as a gaming...

    Additional Spell Effects

    Has anyone made any home-brew spell effects that can be bought like the other spell modifications in EOM already? I'm thinking of adding a Scalable Spell ability to replicate some of the spells in Core that get better as you go up in level (i.e. Magic Missile, Fireball, etc.). This especially...

    EOM:R vs EOM:ME

    I'm really excited about Mythic Earth, as I am a great fan of EOM Revised. I'm going to be buying it anyway, but I was wondering if someone could elaborate on the specific differences between the two systems? All I really know is that ME was made to be able to recreate the magic in myths... but...

    Haste Question

    Hi, I'm curious as to why it's 4 MP for an extra attack per round, yet only 5 for an entire extra standard action? It doesn't say otherwise, so I'm assuming this 1 MP makes the difference between casting one or two spells per round? For fighters, this obviously makes very little difference, but...

    EOM compared to Core

    Has anyone used an EOM/Core combination in their game? My game is going to go in that direction eventually, but not for a few more levels. I was wondering if anyone who has had experience with a combo game, or comparing the two systems could share any advice. As it stands, EOM seems much more...

    Evil Cult Prophet Encounters

    My players are investigating an evil cult in a heavily modified RttToEE game. When they reach the next village on their journey, they're going to find that there is a decent amount of evil cult influence, and eventually encounter one of the out-of-their-minds, drugged-up, creepily-harmless...

    Cantrips and Beyond

    Hi, I have a question about the costs of spells after cantrips have been spent. The way I read it, it seems like the following is true: Let's say a mage gets 6 free cantrips per day. He uses these to case Heal 0 to heal 1d6 on his friends 6 times. After his 6 cantrips are spent, it will cost...

    Unearthed Arcana Wound Points & Subdual

    I'm using UA's Wound and Vitality hit point system in my game, and for the most part it's pretty straightforward. However, when it comes to dealing nonlethal damage I Get a bit confused. It says that there is no nonlethal damage in this system; treat nonlethal damage as vitality point damage...

    Town Adventures

    In a few hours I'm running a game. The players just finished a dungeon, and there's another small one nearby, but for a change of pace I want them to stay in town for tonight's session rather than run off to another adventure. I'm running the search for the cult in town part of Return to the...

    Converting PHB Spells to EoM

    Just curious, has anyone undertaken this task yet? Or begun to undertake it? We haven't tried it yet, but it's something to consider doing if nobody has started yet. After seeing the monster thread, I just thought this would be probably one of the most useful things to add to the EoM system...

    Using EoM with "Buy the Numbers"

    Hi, I created a post about converting the EoM magic system into a point buy version for "Buy the Numbers" campaigns. The final version is at the bottom of the page, along with the house rules I've been using to keep the system balanced. Here's the link...

    More powerful spells at first level?

    [Edit: I changed the title of this post to match the topic better... as I wrote the original post in a hurry and just threw that title in. It used to be "How do you deal with spell differences?"] I'm really enjoying using EOM in my game. The flexibility is fantastic, and all of my players...

    Help Me With A Math Problem

    For my game I'm combining EN World's Elements of Magic: Revised with S.T. Cooley Publishing's Buy the Numbers system. I've got almost all the kinks worked out but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out an equation to convert the magic point system from EoM to the point buy system of BtN. The...

    First-Timer Questions About Publishing Material

    Hi, I've read through the FAQs and the SRD and the OGL, but I still have a few questions before I start working on anything that could be published. I've done some research on e-publishing, but still I've got no experience and would be vulnerable to making some mistakes. Anyway, to get to the...
