[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 3051996, member: 12460"] The reason is simple. If you want to play around with an entirely different rules set (like Tome of Magic, Tome of Battle, Magic of Incarnum, Expanded Psionics Handbook, etc.), you don't really need any other tricks. Characters using these rules will get plenty of new material to deal with without having to worry about LA races. I want to reward regular players. However, a fresh player or one who only shows up occassionally, could go on a sidetrek to earn extra XP. And actually, I plan to award 1/4 the XP and GP, though I am not 100% sure on that number yet. We will start at 1st-level however, because, well, 1st-level is fun. :) That is a good point, perhaps I will allow sign-ups on a web page ahead of time (first come first served) and limit the number of players per session to eight. I could possibly increase this limit when/if I get a co-DM. That is essentially the idea behind using Castle Greyhawk as the backdrop for most adventures. Were I FR junkie, I'd use Undermountain. That is the way I would work the side treks. Good suggestion. I was thinking about building a website for the campaign and I think you've convinced me. Ah, very nice. I will have to store that suggestion away. Thank you. :) [/QUOTE]
