    Spelljammer Spelljammer Crew Cost

    I’ve googled this and for every link I clicked I got a different answer. My group has finally made it into Wildspace. Though it’s more like Star Trek Voyager or Farscape in that they got shot across the galaxy with no idea how to get home. The denizens of the area have never heard of their world...

    D&D 4E 4E Transfer Enchantment to Pathfinder?

    Okay, in Pathfinder, it's a 2nd level ritual... what would be a simple spell to transfer the magical properties of one item onto another? I don't want to penalize the players because the magic items they find aren't things that they normally use, and more importantly, to prevent characters from...

    Speeding up combat

    Okay, after the first few sessions (Kingmaker), I realized one of the things I hated about 3.5 and 4E.... The combat that never ends. What things have you tried to speed things up? Here's what I'm experimenting: Halve the monsters hit points Giving the monsters +2 to hit, damage, and saves...

    Lesser Wyrm Rods?

    Back in BECMI, the PC's had a Rod of the Wyrm that ended up becoming part of the family, so to speak. It took until Epic that we got the return of it, but it was MUCH more powerful than before. SRD:Wyrm Rod - D&D Wiki What I'd like to do is make lesser variations of the rod so that I can use...

    Splitting the Leadership feat?

    My players (we only have 3 PCs) want to have cohorts to make up for lack of PC's (they'll be playing Kingmaker, so the extra bodies will help with the kingdom) when they hit 7th level but don't want the bookkeeping of having followers. I haven't played in a few years, but wasn't there feats that...

    Pathfinder 1E Rate my Pathfinder Rakasta

    Okay, one of the last ingredients I have for my upcoming Pathfinder campaign is getting Rakasta converted over... I'm partially using the one CleverNickname did, but doing a few modifications based on the old Dragon Bruce Heard article. The reason I chose Int as the other bonus is campaign...

    D&D 4E Switching from 4E to Pathfinder. Conversion advice?

    Almost two years ago, we started a brand new campaign with a brand new homebrew world with 4E. We went through the first module and were on the Thunderspire adventure. Then it just fizzled away. It felt like a board/strategy game more than D&D, so we just stopped. With tax refund time coming...

    4E Adventures Treasure breakdown?

    My group's going through Thunderspire right now, and we already did KOTS, and man, it really seems like there's a lack of treasure. I love how 4E's treasure parcels works, and I know someone went through the adventures and broke each adventure down and listed all of the cash and items... and...

    Why can't you have more than one multi-class feat?

    Okay, let me elaborate... I have a player who wants to take the Beast Companion Ranger build... but wants to use the ranger Multi-class feats to get the other abilities. You can take toughness and defensive mobility as regular feats. However, the Prime Shot (which I think is useless, and yet...

    Point of Light Timeline?

    I'm trying to put a timeline together, and we're using Points of Light as a starting point, and then attaching the things I want to that. Approximately how long has it been since the human empire fell? How long did it last? Were the Tiefling and Dragonborn empires before that? If so, how long...

    Tournaments, Fairs, & Taverns

    Tournaments, Fairs, & Taverns is a d20 PDF format sourcebook by Natural 20 Press. It ran me a whole 5 bucks for over 70 pages. First Impression: Before I start this review, I want to make it clear that I honestly did not intend on buying this product. I saw it hyped on EN WORLD for a while, but...

    Figurines of Wondrous Power!

    Fey step out of glue bomb?

    I had some Kobolds tossing glueballs from slings at the PC's. Then the next wave will hurl cages of scorpions (the ones in the Dragon article). The Eladrin PC feystepped, and said that it left all the glue and bugs behind. I said no, if the glue is left behind, then so would your clothing...

    How does the GSL affect me?

    Simple answer: It won't. Okay, so I'll probably spend less money on books I'll never use this time around, but in general, it won't affect my ability to play D&D. 4th Edition is here and it's here to stay for at least 8 years or so. I've read through the PHB and some of the MM, and I like what...

    What 3E Core Races have you used and LIKED?

    With all the talk about 4E races getting cut, I'm curious what races you've used and liked from the core rules. Myself, if I'm ever a player (or using a party NPC), I actually prefer humans and elves. It's hard to take halflings & gnomes seriously, and I've just never played a dwarf or half-elf...

    Other Paladin Mounts...

    For the life of me, I can't find a guideline on suitable Paladin mounts. My wife's paladin wants a Riding Hare (from In the Saddle, which is unfortunately not 3.5, but shouldn't be hard to convert), but wants a template added on to give him some more "meat". The DMG says the mount's CR should be...

    UA Class Defense.... Armor as DR?

    I let my players character use the Unearthed Arcana Class Defense bonuses. It gets their AC up pretty high, but I get to use it for my bad guys too. :D However, I was initially combining it with the "Armor as DR" rule from UA, but the players brought up a pretty good point. What's the purpose...

    Firearms reload time

    Okay... here's the scoop. I'm using Dragon #321 for reference. Normally a firearm reload is a standard action. The breachloading quality changes it to a move action (one step better) Say the rapid reload (firearms, yes, it's fine in my campaign) feat makes it one step better than that, so a...

    No Resurrection.... Clone?

    A couple years ago, when my players ran through the RttToEE, Tharizdun had been freed, and it began the War of the Gods, where gods of various pantheons (Greek, Asgardian, Egyptian, D&D) were selectedly made insane by Tharizdun, and proceeded to destroy each other. In the end, only a small list...
