Can't agree with this more. v3 was a disppointment in so many ways that I can't say that Fuzion was the worst part, but my players and I liked Interlock and thought in ran very, very well. D.

Marvelous! Both Deities and Demigods and the Palace of the Silver Princess promise good stories! D.

I'd run it using timeshifted Witchcraft/Unisystem - or Boot Hill and just make a crap-ton of stuff up as I went along. D.

No harm, no foul. :) D.

I didn't say that they were underpowered compared to martial characters, I said they were underpowered compared to 1E casters. ;-) D.

And Rituals. I love the mechanic for Ritual magic, but it seems mostly like a wasted opportunity - on top of the somewhat odd applications of Concentration. D.

Honestly, and perhaps it's an artifact of my DMing style, it doesn't really become that much of a buff - or perhaps it's that the fact that spellcasters are such high value targets that this compensates. Compared to 1E magic generally feels so nerfed in comparison that none of my players feel...

I've plenty of solo games and even a couple of campaigns and they can be fun - with the right player/DM. When they work well it's for pretty much all the reasons people have listed, when it goes poorly, it's often for the "burnout" that a couple of people have mentioned or because the player...

Personally I don't like the way that 5E used Concentration (but I'm also an old 1E DM) - so my house rule is that character's can Concentrate on spell's equal to their Proficiency bonus - and then I'm ruthless in making them roll to check it, and equally ruthless in applying penalties. D.

Heya, So this is a truely obscure piece of fluff from the CP2020 (& 2013) canon setting that I'm trying to track down further details on. There was a "Cat Cult" mentioned a couple of times, the result of a Vodun priest helping spec ops troops during the Central American War handle their Black...

LOL, been playing SciFi and Horror lately - forgetting what's stored in boxes in the basement. There was also the City of Delights boxed set for... Calimport? Plus all the related materials over editions. D.

Thinking about it there was also City of Lies for Legend of the Five Rings, plus Manifest in/for Ghostwalk had a really decent hook and some details for 3/3.5. In addition to the City State of the Invincible Overlord there was City State of the World Overlord - plus, and I'm really embarrassed...

I've done that as well as I really don't mind high level casters maintaining many spells at a time - I also link having a familiar to some Advantage and Disadvantage mods for Concentration as well. D.

That's actually what I've done with Concentration. D.

Boring weapons and armor tables, and the (very) flawed rest and recovery/healing rules. I'm not a huge fan of the attunement rule either, so I pretty much ignore it. Come to think of it I like Concentration re. spell spoiling, but I dislike the limit to one spell at a time - I so tweaked that...

Other than nerfing wizards to a 10d damage limit and changing bards unforgivably, I always thought the big difference between 1E and 2E was that (stylistically) 1E was an emulator for Appendix N while 2E was an emulator for the TSR novels and other fantasy being written in the 80's and 90's -...

The old boxed set. D.

Run a game that *you* (the DM) find fun, *as the DM* - if you are running games that only the players find fun you'll burn out faster and resent things more. Some players may not like your game/campaign/style and that is fine, you're also not obligated to be ok with every single player and their...

I ran a regular campaign years ago during the 1E era that had... 8-9 players, with some of them also running henchmen in addition to their characters, plus a couple of regularly-appearing NPC's. I didn't do anything different with the larger group than I did for a smaller group. To this day I...
