[QUOTE="aco175, post: 8460831, member: 27385"] [USER=7033182]@Khel[/USER] Welcome to the boards, enjoy the show. I'm not sure there is a question in your long post. I did start to drift when most of the way through and lost track. I know a lot has changed from 2e to 5e and some may depend on the carrying capacity of characters and what strength means. A 2e 9 strength fighter and a 15 strength fighter were the same fighting-wise and only one could carry more. A 5e 15-strength fighter is a lot better than a 9 strength fighter in 5e. A [I]bag of holding[/I] weight 15 pounds when full (I think). Tying the 2 gallons of water to my waist is difficult for me to walk and fight with, since I'm more of a strength 10 person and not trained to do this. I would likely default to the old paperboy method of slinging over one shoulder. I would also go with the game having lots of things that do not make a lot of sense. Some I may worry about and a lot I do not. I tend to be the DM that does not worry about arrows and food unless it becomes part of the plot, say you are in a desert surviving or using the arrows in a castle siege. I could justify the [I]bag of holding[/I] fitting comfortably by default- "It's Magic!" It could adjust like a magic ring to fit the form and function of the wearer and I would likely be cool with it. [/QUOTE]
