    Kickstarter Sinless: Billionaire Bounty

    "Sinless provides a sorely needed firmware update to one of the most underserved genres in RPGs. Lovingly crafted, and honed to a bleeding edge. Highly recommended." — Sean McCoy (Mothership, Two Rooms and a Boom) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/agonarchartist/sinless-billionaire-bounty/...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    He kinda looks like a troglodyte.

    On Downtime

    I like motivated players. I think it's better to be a reactionary Dungeon Master, and let the players drive the play, while the Dungeon Master concentrates on creating the intrigue and drama. I've been running games for years, publishing for over a decade (hell, the only other thread I've...

    D&D 5E Social Challenges & Political Conflicts

    Again, I blame house rules. That said, you'd need a party with a non-negative Charisma modifier in B/X, and there's only a ~2.x% chance of a 12 anyway, and 5e characters will generally eventually have 20's in their stats, I did the best in the conversion that I could. I prefer, and...

    D&D 5E Social Challenges & Political Conflicts

    Hahaha at maxed out. Yes, a 13+ gives you a +1, a 16+ gives you a +2, and an 18 gives you a +3. However, these scores were generated with 3d6, in order. So, yes, if someone happened to get a 16, they would have a 15% chance at helpful (rolling a 10, 11, or 12 on 2d6) With a d20, you always...

    D&D 5E Social Challenges & Political Conflicts

    No, no, you misunderstand. It's a skill check, which means that there's a 5% chance of Helpful, instead of a 2.8% chance in the bell curve system. 2 Immediately Attack 3-5 Hostile 6-8 Neutral 9-11 Friendly 12 Helpful Which means any result of 15 or higher is indifferent - the same result as...

    D&D 5E Social Challenges & Political Conflicts

    Also, replacing the core stat with Charisma in all the checks is a great addition! I didn't feel brave enough to do it myself (and considered, I didn't want anyone to get that much leverage from that one single stat). It's a great idea!

    D&D 5E Social Challenges & Political Conflicts

    First of all, thanks for the wonderful comments. I worked a long time on this. It's based off the old Arabian Nights game, and is designed to preserve agency of the player characters and make social interactions less arbitrary. It was designed originally for older styles of games...

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Hoard of the Dragon Queen" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    I was most certainly trolling you with that name. :-)

    D&D 5E If you aren't buying magic items, where will you spend your gold?

    ITT: people who haven't read the downtime section in the PHB and seen that you can spend gold for proficiency.
