I answered Yes because I have come back to DND even when I play other games. But. My favorite game is Alternity. I have yet to find another game that has rank benefits that give game mechanics to allow an experienced fighter to win against a talented fighter. As I type that, I know I like...

Thanks for the replies! I think part of my question is that I don't know African culture very well, so if the dwarves are taking from there, I would love some sources I could read and view. The pictures are straight from 3E FRCS and the descriptions are from Races of Faerun. The shield...

Can you point me to where this is the case? I don't see it but want to understand where you do. Thanks! I welcome the new depiction of characters, including the ones in the comic. I'm running an FR game where dwarves have magitech. I keep evolving my FR as I do another campaign in it. I...

This looks AWESOME! Can't wait to get my hands on it! Thanks!!

I said that and I do think CC3 is great. It's the most powerful mapping program out there. But It's not my first choice anymore. I use so many but if you want quick maps, I would recommend DungeonDraft for battlemaps and WonderDraft for overland. Really, it depends on what you need it...

There are a lot more resources to learn CC3 now. Profantasy has been doing weekly (mostly) live mappings showcasing something but showing how to do it all. If you need help, the FaceBook group is quite active. Or DM me.

In DND/PF, I use them all the time. BADD has sent me repeated notices, which I ignore. They usually fight one around fourth level, about the earliest it makes sense to me. The campaign, set in my own version of FR, will be in several dragon's area, according to them, and trouble eventually...

I love this discussion! Thanks to all of you! Where can I find some Epic Hero write ups? I'm not a master of the 5E rules so I don't know what a fighter or barbarian can do in terms of healing themselves. Other than potions. Or some insights into the feats or class abilities that can do...

I have been revisiting games from the 80s/90s when I was younger to see if they make more sense now. SR1 is still confusing and I much prefer 4th onward. While original Star Wars d6 does hit "do or do not" I find it too simple for as much math as it has. I also wonder about this game but...

Where are the ones made only from the finest frogs? For a cross over event.

I love that someone else uses Alternity. And thinks about it.

I think this discussion perfectly describes gaming in the 80s and 90s. Go to this table and the DM is using ten dragon magazine articles they loved and their own notes. Go to that table, and the DM is using twelve different dragon magazine articles, and three things from the DMG appendix on...

I understand not wanting to make it too complex. I took it differently. A fighter is already good with all weapons. They can pick up a bow or two handed sword and use them well. They are better at whichever one they have "prepared" for the day. I would hope that would mean bonuses to their...

As you said, stunned is one of the top conditions to inflict on an enemy, other than Anything that pulls away from there has to be seen as somewhat equal value. Maybe they could lean into the broken condition for gear and allow a sword and board fighter to avoid melee weapon damage with...

Having thought about this more, here are more thoughts. The other suggestion was more complicated but it involved needing to do more damage in a series of attacks greater than the target's CON score before they need to save v stun. It might mean that they get to one attack before a save due...
