[QUOTE="DungeonMaester, post: 3463504, member: 44384"] Very fun. The party was down to the point where every one would die in one hit, when the cleric decided that the would be 'farmers' are actually drow who are controlling them. This does not take much convincing since every one is a elf or half elf in the party except the human, so the slay the farmers burnt down the farm and it's underpassages then reported back to town. The only thing that brought the game to a stop was a) Hit bonus chart and b) yard conversion. I have only been playing 3.5 for 5 years now, so the bulk of playing was AD&D, abet it was 2nd and not first. Durning all those years of D&D, no one owned a book other then the DM. We played enough to know class abilities and score bonuses like the back of our hands, but we required the Dm to fill the rest in. What I remember from that time was the melee characters almost always sucked. No matter the level, they would hit about 1 out of four times, and take two attacks to drop a single npc enemy. More for bosses. Now I see why. Exactly. Thus far the only house rules are: Static bonus rather then a chart Saving throws. I have no problem with saving throws as written, but ORSIC is not something I want to go off of using AD&D. They are alike, but it is written it is a bit off number wise when compared to the book. Movement speed. The yard to square thing I can not even begin to wrap my head around. Math bad.
