    Congrats to Changeling!

    I think Changeling is by far the best of the new World of Darkness. It returns a sense of wonder and beauty to the not wholly human that Vampire and Werewolf so sorely missed. I also feel that the bashing old the old WoD is only based on specialized experience, as the "problems" explained were...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder overhaul suggestions, pt. 2

    I second Kheti sa-Menik on this issue. The simple fix is to make a cheat sheet for people having difficulties to do some math. Let's not make Pathfinder into a simpleton game like 4E. While there is nothing wrong with simplicity, some of us like and even endorse complexity. It's like with the...

    Once per day non-magical effects destroy suspension of disbelief

    IMO, the rationale from the PHB is rather flimsy. Daily powers are the intrusion of metagame conerns into the story. Yes, yes, it does create a sort of illusionary balance that seems to pacify players that want win against the "monsters". Some in-chracter exchanges about daily powers: A:"Hey...

    free 4E?

    Mechanics like this exist in dozens of computer games. Lets couch it in Warcraft and Diablo terms: each class has a skill tree. Powers have a "mana" cost and a cooldown period. It's all doable in UA Terms: combine spell points and recharge magic and generalize for all classes. Spell points...

    4E, has your opinion changed?

    4E is totally, utterly a combat game. Everything elese is just a minor addtion. :eek: Daily and and Encounter are really destructive for verisimilitude.:uhoh: I could have lived with all that, the whole simpleton combat-is-everything approach to roleplaying, because there are some good points...

    So is the OGL alive?

    In fact, I was worried that sites like d20srd might go away. I was planning on making variant/optional rules for 4E, but as soon as I read the GSL, that plan went down the drain. :1: :1: So now I am back to the 3E drawing board, so maybe i will want to put some homegrown variant on my...

    So is the OGL alive?

    I spent this afternoon try to find out what will happen to the OGL and d20 3.x SRD .... WHat is definitive, is that the d20 STL will run out in 6 months. WIll that mean that the 3.5 SRD is no longer avaible, too? Or will it no longer be called d20? or is all that will happen that I cant use...

I finnally decied which way to go, which is to announce a whole new phase of this game, making it easy to either go away or to continue playing. There is a new OOC thread posted. IFF you want to go on continue...

    EXEXCRUCIATION - a Noblilis PbP

    As the Elatic summons Diadora, a wind rises. The people on the square of Derr flee to their houses. An ominous feeling hangs in the air. The wind speed rises and rises, then suddenly stops. You momentraily gasp, then realize the air is there. And also the Impatrix. With her apearance, the temple...

    Exexcrucication - a NOBILIS PbP

    While looking at the forum, I see that another Nobilis game has started. Torn between jealousy and relief, it feed me to see my own game in new perspective. Now that this languishing game is nearing irrelevancy, Diadoras speech needs major rewriting. Cutting away all detours and build-ups...

    Exexcrucication - a NOBILIS PbP

    <See the Parable of the Lamp, Nobilis Book p.184> ... Well basically, I finally completed what Diadora says, if and only if you get her the Imperator Point but I noticed that none decided what to do with the point.

    Exexcrucication - a NOBILIS PbP

    Well this time I caught myself a cold getting totaly soaked while having my coat at home. However, being confined at home alone, where I have no net, I am bored out of my mind and decided to drop in on an relatively nearby internet cafe: I will update the threads today.

    <Darn have to look up in the bok and forgot it. Doadora's reaction here soon.> Do you give the light to the Impatrix when she comes?!?

    Exexcrucication - a NOBILIS PbP

    I want this imperator point to be seen, as a reward for you all. Lichtenhart surely contributed to my feeling that I had to give you something "tangible" (not quite a character point yet, but something), but it's the sum of all your efforts.

    EXEXCRUCIATION - a Noblilis PbP

    <I really like that you finsh that last strand of the Parcival Scene, Lichenhart> Parcival turns to you, getting up. There are tears in his eye, but also relief. "Thanks, good Lord. I think that is the way. I locked everything away to forget, but it was exactly that what tied me to the past...

    The Reconquista OOC

    Hmmm, I looked at it. I am not adverse to playing women, but paladins: and then a lot of wasted potential on the cavalier class. :\ You found someone interesed anyways.

    EXEXCRUCIATION - a Noblilis PbP

    You can always talk to the Elatic, what he knows, Diadora will also know. However, if it is really important Diadora might apear. Why do you want to see her. <I completed the descrption of Innocence's castle, but now I wait till tomorrow to see if you want to see the imaptirx FIRST. If not, I...
