    D&D 5E Improvised actions in combat

    My very favorite and memorable battles were from improvised actions in combat. Tons of great stories. I value creativity far more than rules based slugfests but that's just me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    D&D 5E Calculating fall damage in special situations

    That cat sounds like it has Evasion and if falls have a saving throw, which that sounds pretty reasonable, too. That would allow the cat to live after such a fall. Just thinking out loud.

    D&D 5E Calculating fall damage in special situations

    Just to clarify, we don't have a d20 ceiling on our draft rule. It's a d20 for every 10 feet after 50. Should be some sort of max, I suppose. Something to consider.

    D&D 3, or 3.5

    Have you found a game? Hey, I'll be moving down in two weeks and I'm looking for a good game. Did you find anything and are they still looking for a player? Thanks!

    D&D 4E Handling things like Riding and Craft with 4E Skills.

    Hmm, I think I understand your position which is about as far as we're going to get, I'm afraid. Please don't insinuate agreement in that ;) but I think I understand where you're coming from. Your answers show me your preference and reasoning along a certain linear path certainly, but that's...

    D&D 4E Handling things like Riding and Craft with 4E Skills.

    I guess we can go with examples and see what we see. So, under your premise that the game system is about amassing power (no argument here), a character's ability to (let's go with bardic performance but it could be painting a portrait, whittling a sculpture, making a sword, etc.) sing a...

    D&D 4E Handling things like Riding and Craft with 4E Skills.

    [In order for a crafting skill to be valuable in a gaming system, it needs to have a means to -exceed- the limits imposed by mundane equipment.] Hmmmm. I might suggest this is not THE reason crafting and skills are important in a gaming system. IMHO, in order for a craft of skill to be...

    D&D 4E Handling things like Riding and Craft with 4E Skills.

    IMHO I don't think there is a way to be all that helpful beyond what has been stated because that part of the system is simply missing. As I mentioned, I am warming to 4E's simplicity and you certainly can substitute "close enough" skills if you'd like, but its really because you have to, isn't...

    D&D 4E Handling things like Riding and Craft with 4E Skills.

    Riding, just riding. is a pretty basic skill, especially in a medieval setting. Hell, I rode a few times as a kid and I can climb up on a horse and steer it down the road decades later. I can't get it to jump a fence and hanging on at a gallop would be pure terror. For me, that would...

    Pathfinder 1E Looking for a Pathfinder game in Salt Lake City, UT

    Hey all, I'm a very experienced gamer looking to join a mature Pathfinder game. I currently have a group but looking to branch out into the Pathfinder world (they are Grayhawk diehards). While I can host (I have a pretty good gaming room), I much prefer to play over DMing. Let me know if someone...
