Wanted: 4-6 players for D&D 3.5 Forgotten Realms campaign!
OK, one more try! :\
I'm looking to DM a "3rd Edition rules with a 1st Edition flavor" campaign set in the Forgotten Realms. I like a mix of strong roleplaying with a fair amount of lively combats thrown in, and am looking for serious long-term gamers who are willing to commit to an every other Sunday night (from 3:00-3:30pm to 9:30-10:00pm) schedule - with occasional Thursday nights during some of the year. I'm aiming to play twice a month, although I understand scheduling conflicts will occur.
Munchkins, powergamers, or players who expect to gain a level every session, won't be happy with my DMing style; combat XP is reduced so as to focus on roleplaying, I encourage players to have long-term goals for their characters, and I don't believe in rushing the game along just to "level up". I'm 44 and have been DMing for a long time. The following are some of the "house rules" for my game:
Alignments to choose from: LG, NG, CG
Classes to choose from based on race(and all the eligible races):
* Human: bard, cleric, favored soul, fighter, marshal, monk, paladin, ranger, rogue, sorcerer, wizard
* Dwarf: cleric, favored soul, fighter, marshal, paladin, rogue
* Elf: bard, cleric, fighter, marshal, paladin, ranger, rogue, sorcerer, wizard
* Half-elf: bard, cleric, favored soul, fighter, marshal, monk, paladin, ranger, rogue, sorcerer, wizard
* Gnome: cleric, fighter, ranger, rogue, wizard
* Hobbit: cleric, fighter, paladin, ranger, rogue
Classes you can choose to add if you want to multi-class (if not on this list you
can't choose them): bard, cleric, favored soul*, fighter, ranger, rogue, sorcerer*
* special events must happen in order to qualify to add this class
Players start with 28 points (30 points if human) & build their PCs accordingly using this table:
09 = 1 point
10 = 2 points
11 = 3 points
12 = 4 points
13 = 5 points
14 = 6 points
15 = 8 points
16 = 10 points
17 = 12 points
18 = 15 points
(some of My Rules Zero)
* Prestige classes must be approved by DM in advance
* There are NO ranged sneak attacks
* Free Wizard level spells can
only come from the Players Handbook, and must be approved by DM. If you're a specialist, one of the free spells must be from your specialized school.
* Fighters do NOT get additional Attacks of Opportunity from using the Cleave/Great Cleave feats during an AOO.

My goal is to get a game going by the end of the Month.
