The same rules where you have to make Con checks every hour or take damage when the temperature reaches 70 degrees F, and every minute when the temp reaches 90?MerricB said:Towards the end of last year, I ran a D&D 3.5E session in a desert using the environmental rules in the 3.5E DMG.
I'm not sure how one could actually run a game in a desert setting using those rules. "Everyone dies of heat exhaustion - The End." Or how having each PC roll a d20 for every minute of game time lends itself to playing the game.
I always figured the DMG rules assumed an environment where the humidity was relatively high. The numbers don't really work for arid regions like deserts.
