[QUOTE="Theocrat, post: 1442972, member: 16778"] [b]Stroun Campaign House Rules[/b] Hi all- We have several house rules, but the most noticeable ones are Spell DC saving throws. We believe that All Spell DC's should be 15. 10 is just too low. So from this all base DC 10 Save are now DC 15. All base 15 saves are now Base 18. This makes things a little harder for lower level pc's but I found that things were just way too easy for our last higher level PC's. Next is Initiative. We roll Int. every 3 rounds. 1, 4, 7 etc... Also all multiple attacks are at -2 to the Int. So if you have multiple attacks, your first attack is on your roll and then your subsequent is at -2, and so forth. If you are hasted, then your hasted attack is the 2nd attack at -2 Int, but at the highest attack bonus. Gnome is of course still an Illusionist but Bard is acceptable as well for favored class. Not that I've had anybody play any of the three. I've also created an Ultimate PHB 3.5. I cut my PHB and inserted the Classes, Eq, skills, feats, and spells from Kalamar Players Guide, AEG Mercenaries, Fantasy Flight Games Spells & Spell craft, as well as Dragon Mag 310+ - all the ones with the additional classes. I then took my PHB to Kinko's and had them copy the front cover and put a clear cover on it and velo bound it (it's got little spines that hold the pages, and only the pages for it's spine).

With chapter tabs and customized dividing pages (for the additonal classes from KPG, MERC, etc..) it makes it very easy to use and comes in around 700+ pages. Kinko's told me that I'd have to remove the Magic and Spells section to add anything new.
