I think this also depends on how one views the origin of the different .... species. In my world, the deities are supposedly the creators of each; so the dwerves have a goddess/god; the urks a goddess/god, the gnomes a goddess/god, the elves a goddess/god and the humans ... well, they're sorta...

You can't monetized sandbox. D&D has become a business, which is why its recent products are .... well, met with mixed reaction among us old farts. Too many think "sandbox" = "buncha random naughty word," but the reality is that "sandbox" = "fluid", which requires a DM who has the time to prep a...

I went old skul (and then modified things). I went with a raised chalkboard, but.... I have a large monitor facing player-ward. I can drop appropriate scenery there, or "here's the letter you found on the dead rogue's body."

I think the terms should be species/race/culture in descending order. If the creatures cannot interbreed, they should be considered separate species. My Dwerves can't interbreed. Neither can my Urks. Both are seperate species from humans and elves. Humans have races with cultures. Elves have two...

Eeh, I'm gonna push back on that. I've got a 2d10 combat mechanic, but it's essentially a THAC0-adjacent approach, with AC starting at 0. Got D&D classes, D&D xp, even D&D spell levels (albeit spell point based.) So, in short, I'm gonna disagree. Shocking thing for the Interwebs, but there you...

Omen of basilisk; party petrified.

Who gives a royal fig about the art? The game isn't played by flipping through the monster manual for pictures... Egad, that's petty. Couple of background comments: I came to the game in the eighties, exposed to a heavy homebrew of 1e with 2e infusions. The game (RAW) has changed a lot. I dunno...

"Woah. Rangers on drugs, man."

I have AC starting at zero and ascending logically. Math works with a 2d10 to hit, Roll must >=10-F+AC. So the math explains diddly. Descending AC never made a lick of sense.

I, too, wanted to get a bit more of that feel .... I may have gone a bit more into rapid gaining of hit points, however. Long rest: A long rest is defined as eight hours time, during which three quarters of (ie: six hours minimum) must be spent being sedentary. After such a time, a being will...

Don't like this - it doesn't allow for adapting to circumstances that develop.

It's basically an entire game system, but the attachments seem to work fixed armour class so unarmoured is 0, and AC increases from there; hit matrix is Hit >=10-F+AC did away with d20 rolls (now 2d10 for rolls to hit, 5d6 under a stat [modified by spell level of caster] for saves, 4d6 for...

It should. I pillaged the core from RVR. You might be interested in some of the alterations I've made.....

Break a combat round into 10 seconds. D10 for initiative. Int bonus adds to initiative. Movement is fluid; Movement per round (m), or km/4 hrs Walking March Jogging Sprint Unencumbered Human 15 20 40 60 Dwarf 15 19 39 58 Elf 16 21 42 63 Gnome 13 18 15 53 Normal...

When I rebooted, I had no armour at zero. Boiled leather at 3. Mail at 5. Shields adds 2. Easy to do the combat stuff as well.

Who gives a damn what AI "thinks?"

My next adventure might be an interesting one. An oracle - new to the job - hires an adventuring guild to solve a crime. The crime? The Oracle has predicted her own kidnapping.

This is my homebrew, because 5e made things so that people just long rest and poof and I wanted gritty. Body points: Body points are a function of a creature’s species more than anything else. To put in blunt terms, small creatures are generally more fragile than large ones. For player...

It would seem you have issues with comprehension. Don't bother replying to my posts in the future.

Meals. Room rental. Armour repair. Paladins/clerics making suitable donations? Spell components. Pearls .. they damn expensive things in the middle of the desert if you wanna identify something. Arrows, bolts.
