Hey Krust!

Hiya mate!

That's an elegant approach to the megaverse.

Its pretty straightforward (a literal interpretation of Supreme Being), but I am glad you like it.

Is the relatioinship between Supreme Being CR and number of dimensions linear or does it track otherwise?

I don't know what you mean by 'track otherwise'?

The CR of the Supreme Being is simply the highest CR you want to use.

BTW -- I like the strength "fixes" that have been proposed by you and CRG (and strength damage bonuses needed to be "fixed"). I'm going to be scrolling back a bit to see if I can catch the solutions from the ground up.

Let me know if theres anything you want answered.

Hi UK!

Could you look at this thread, please? http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?p=1798067#post1798067

On the last two pages, I discuss with others a possible translation of the Practiced Spellcaster feat to EoMR, the magic system, I use. I've brought up the CR equivalent of a spellcasting level with two feats, but RangerWickett doesn't think, that I (respectively your math) am right. I've answered it already, but maybe I've overlooked something.

Thanks!

Just replied.

The problem was that (I think) RW wasn't taking into account the secondary implications of removing spellcasting abilities in a character built almost solely around spellcasting.

Hi all!

I was wondering which of the following you prefered with regards size classifications?

What I initially had was:

...
Colossal
Immense
Titanic
Enormous
Humongous
Prodigious
Elephantine

But its a forlorn task since you run out of adjectives.

What I was thinking was to use the Macrobe (Devastation Creature) Template as a guide.

So you would have:

...
Colossal
Titanic (replacing Immense, just because I like Titanic more )
Macro-Fine
Macro-Diminutive
Macro-Tiny
Macro-Small
Macro-Medium
Macro-Large
Macro-Huge
Macro-Gargantuan
Macro-Colossal
Macro-Titanic

One thing to consider though is that there is no specific creature in the bestiary technically bigger than Elephantine (Macro-Medium) anyway.

Although obviously if you added the Macrobe Template to an Ogre (for instance) it would be bigger than Elephantine/Macro-Medium.

Any thoughts?

By the way I appreciate the love Rulemaster mate!

I believe I posted a size progression I like earlier in this thread, but here it goes:

Colossal
Enormous
Titanic
Vast
Vast+
Vast+2/Vast++
Vast+3/Vast+++ (your Macro-Medium)
etc.

As you said, at some point, you have to change to a more "templated" writing, whether it is a +x, or the macro-size thing you proposed. That said, I'm not a fan of the progression you proposed, partially because it is ... counter-intuitive to go back to the earlier sizes. Also, what about sizes larger than that? Macro-Macro-Fine?
Macro-Titanic would be Vast+9, which I believe would be the neighbourhood of Neth, the demiplane.

Hey U_K

Maybe add some examples of what sort of creature(s) would be in those size categories?

BTW, I like the "Titanic" more than the "Immense" too. Kind of keeps it.. I dunno.. with the big creature derived names, or something like that.
On that note.. are "Titans" in the "Titanic" size category?

Hey Krust!

Let me know if theres anything you want answered.

Thanks, and this might be a bit long but here goes (my apologies in advance for any misunderstandings).

The default base unarmed damage for a medium size creature with a strength of 10 would 1d6.

Every +15 in strength equals a doubling over the prior base damage. Ex (for a medium sized creature):

Str.

10 = 1d6
25 = 2d6
40 = 4d6
55 = 8d6
70 = 16d6
85 = 32d6
100 = 64d6
115 = 128d6
130 = 256d6
145 = 512d6

And so forth?

Also, my rough understanding is that an increase in damage die (1d6 becomes 1d8).

That's the limit of my understanding, basically.

Its pretty straightforward (a literal interpretation of Supreme Being), but I am glad you like it.

Indeed I do.

I don't know what you mean by 'track otherwise'?

The CR of the Supreme Being is simply the highest CR you want to use.

I was curious as to the formula that you use to determine the Supreme Being's CR based on the number of dimensions. I was wondering whether the relationship between the number of dimensions and the Supreme Being's CR was linear or whether it followed another progression.

BTW -- did anyone ever correctly guess one of the Time Lords from real world mythology?

Thanks dude.

Hi Knight Otu mate!

I believe I posted a size progression I like earlier in this thread, but here it goes:

Colossal
Enormous
Titanic
Vast
Vast+
Vast+2/Vast++
Vast+3/Vast+++ (your Macro-Medium)
etc.

I think you may as well stick to Colossal + (++, +++ etc.) unless you have a specific reasoning otherwise.

Of the two ideas I propose, one is an (admittedly ultimately futile) attempt to give a new adjective for each size category. The other inputs Macro scaling into the mix at a factor of x1000 (technically x1024) or effectively +10 size categories.

As you said, at some point, you have to change to a more "templated" writing, whether it is a +x, or the macro-size thing you proposed. That said, I'm not a fan of the progression you proposed, partially because it is ... counter-intuitive to go back to the earlier sizes. Also, what about sizes larger than that? Macro-Macro-Fine?

Mega would replace Macro, if you ever needed it.

Macro-Titanic would be Vast+9, which I believe would be the neighbourhood of Neth, the demiplane.

Thereabouts, although being spherical it would technically be one full size category larger.

Hey U_K

Hi Kavon matey!

Maybe add some examples of what sort of creature(s) would be in those size categories?

Well technically a Devastation Beetle would be Macro-Fine (in my opinion). Obviously I'll have a few amongst the IH critters.

BTW, I like the "Titanic" more than the "Immense" too. Kind of keeps it.. I dunno.. with the big creature derived names, or something like that.

The only thing I don't like is that Godzilla would become Macro-Fine which doesn't sound as good as Titanic. In fact Mega would fit with Megasaurs but it would defeat the meaning of the word Mega.

On that note.. are "Titans" in the "Titanic" size category?

True Titans...yes.
