Blockinlick, I very much agree with you. (sorry if I mispelt your name) and since there are only three posts this year, we should start our own. As a person who has never played before, I would like to start as a player. If one of you three or another would like to be DM or play, please respond and ...

I see a lot of people saying "Hey I would like to play this", a lot of people saying "Hey, I have some good programs to run this", and a lot of people saying "Hey, I'll DM", but NONE saying "We have a game going, anyone who is interested email me".

So it is my assumption that everyone keeps ...

The BG/IWD manual has most of the basic equipment listed, so that should be no problem.

I wonder, though: what is your intention? You've got no one to play with, as far as I know, and 2nd Edition is quite hard to find a forum-based game for. Is it just for fun? If so, why limit yourself to one ...

I gave you the links to the legally available free material for 3.5/Pathfinder. I can't give you free PDFs to the copyrighted stuff, but if you managed to find it for 2E, I don't think you'll have trouble finding it for 3.5/4E.
I wouldn't let sheer amount of pages make or break a deal: I found the ...

I always wanted someone to create Role-Play chat bot.

What is that you say?

Well, in my excessive time playing Diablo II, I have ran into a lot of cool chat bots. Ones that monitor "runs", ones that monitor duel games and record stats like deaths and deaths by whom, ones that organize that ...

First, let me state that there is definitely going to be more to a chapter than it's short desc. Especially since traveling from one place to the other will hold its own adventures. The numbers in bracket parenthesis like [2] measure how many adventures worth the chapter will hold. Some of these ...

Am new and currently studying 2e to become a DM. Unfortunately, I have no players, so it feels pointless, nevertheless, I am still designing my own elaborate campaign for s%!7s.

Since I am a writer, I already have every chapter written out. Now all I need to do is turn each ...

I have to point out that the out-of-combat support in 4E is very small. Skills work with scaling numbers (kind of like level scaling in Oblivion) and non-combat abilities for characters are few and far in between.


See, this is the kind of stuff I keep hearing. The problem is, I don't have 6,000 ...

The Elves in D&D are not small. Often a bit smaller than a human but taller then dwarves and halflings. In 4e elves are most often as tall as a human. In the 4e you can also chose the Eladrin who can even be a bit taller than humans. Your remark about elves beeing demi-human is something I don't ...

I have a question for you, Blockinlick. Given that you are running your own world, not a published D&D setting, and given that you have already noticed that D&D is a needlessly complex system, especially in the earlier editions, why are running the game in D&D?

I'm not going to advise you to ...

I can really only stress the point that the 4e rules are far easier to use than the old 2e. I never used 2e rules outside of computer games.

This is a blank character sheet.

Didn't find any for the second edition.

Eh... I have ...

The whole class and race bonuses are summed up on the character sheet of every character (At the end of each session I copy the sheet of every player). Regarding the items, dont take the whole list. Basic equipment should only be needed in the beginning and after that look at the players and how ...

Oh, I didn't mean to insinuate that you didn't. I was just providing further insight and elaborating on my issue.

I recently started as a DM for a small group of friends that i drew into the game with the help of a won bet. You don't need to have experienced the game as a PC. It can help a bit predict the actions of the PC's but it is not a must.
A good starting point are stories of the novels or pc games ...

I am new to D&D. I have played similar games as player characters, but never delved into the DM aspect. Now I want to play D&D and I am interested in being a DM.

I have some issues though.

1. I am new and it seems a DM needs to absorb a ridiculous amount of info.
2. I don't really have any ...
