[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 3044042, member: 12460"] Ooo. :eek: I don't know if that would work at all. There needs to be some element of randomness in the game. Making all damage rolls average would eliminate the need for almost all dice but the d20, which means fewer dice are needed at the table. The only other dice I can see being used with any regularity would be d100 for things like confusion or miss chance (I wouldn't impose an average roll on something like that). But even those could be fairly easily substituted for a d20 roll. In a sense, yes. But I'm more concerned about what the individual player has access to as opposed to the group as a whole. I own all the WotC books and I am at least passingly familiar with most of them, especially the more popular options like radiant servant of pelor, exotic weapon master, and marshal (at least they seem popular to me). Good idea. I'll have to think about that. That is kind of what I am shooting for. I don't have the chutzpa to assume I can recreate what seems to be the halcyon days, but there are a large number of players who are my friends around me locally and I don't usually get to see a lot of them but a few times a year. This would provide the perfect excuse for more regular contact, which I would enjoy. [/QUOTE]
