in D&D/d20 magic February 2012

Yup, in fact, the system that I hope to put together would attempt to maximize player flexibility not only in the realm of magic, but also with regard to options for character advancement. I'm planning on bucking the whole level system altogether i…

Hey there Morkleb. I think that the 3.5e "Spell Slot" system is simpler and requires less book keeping, but that a "Mana" system is more flexible and allows the players more options. So you have two competing goods here that you have to decide bet…

On Killer's recommendation, this discussion has been added to the "Hot Topics" discussion page, which is a new Sticky. Cheers, -Arshees

in The "Review my Campaign" thread February 2012

Regarding "The Chronicles of Erdon":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/erdon I've just taken a stroll about your campaign site. I don't really have time to give you the kind of feedback that you requested (not that I've had time to review a…

@ Nightstorm and Ceronomus: I've got a little "HTML walk-through":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/age-of-legends/wikis/html-templates-for-age-of-legends at my site that shows how to do this. Cheers, -Arsheesh

in Favorite GM game systems January 2012

@Hurst - Intriguing idea; I'd never thought about using HP as the limiting factor of spell-casting. However, I can see why it would be desirable to have magic "cost" it's wielder something in a more realistic game. For one thing, this would help t…

in Favorite GM game systems January 2012 edited January 2012

Are you talking about a system you designed yourself Hurst? If so I'd definitely be down for checking it out. Yeah the whole "flexible magic system" reference is a bit cryptic, but that's only because my own thoughts on the matter are a bit va…

in Favorite GM game systems January 2012

I'm game to try anything (well, nearly anything) once when it comes to RPGs. My favorite genre though would have to be low to mid fantasy (I'm really _not_ a fan of High fantasy). As to systems, I tend to be of the school of thought that less is m…

in Sandbox vs Canned January 2012 edited February 2012

I'm with Frank on this one. Both adventure styles have their benefits and drawbacks. I think the adventures I remember the most and have the most fun running are those which emerge from the campaign itself. Part of that I think has to do with the…

in Enter the Turncoat, Stage Right January 2012

Hey there Turncoat, welcome to the Portal. You know, I could really go for a good Sazerac right about now. I love my whiskey and generally drink it straight, but I'm a sucker for a good Rye mixed drink every now and again. Sadly, having just move…

in Most Popular? January 2012

Search me. Here's my none-to-scentific hypothesis though: popularity might be a measure of the overall amount of people who have added the campaign to their favorites list at one time or another, rather than a measure of how many fans the site curr…

in Arsheesh is now a Kiwi! January 2012

Thanks everyone, it's been a crazy first week but my wife and I just got settled into our new flat today (after having spent a week in a youth hostel), and are feeling much better all around. Well that's the latest from Lake Wobegon. Cheers, -A…

Mike, perhaps we should clarify it thus, "Portlandia", a place where chickens roam free, bikers rule the open roads, and young people go to retire! Cheers, -Arsheesh

in Strangest thing that your players have come up with in a campaign January 2012

CuRoi, that's one of the more creative campaign plugs I've seen! Sounds like you've got one hell of a party, and quite frankly, as a former GM, I'm envious. Cheers, -Arsheesh

in First time DM!!! :D January 2012

Welcome Gyoza, always nice to see a fresh face here at the forums. Looks like you've already met some of the usual suspects, but I thought I'd hop on the welcome wagon as well. Friendly crowd this, so if you ever need anything, advice or what have…

in Looking for game in Portland January 2012

Mikeinpdx, your response to Savannah was "whispered" meaning only he (and forum moderators like me) can see it. However, since I take it that you meant this reply to be public, I'll just relay your response to the rest of the forum: Mike lives i…

Yeah I think a CoTM for "A God Rebuilt" is long overdue. Looking forward to seeing Killervp's campaign have it's day in the sun. Cheers, -Arsheesh

in Work Exchange December 2011

Great Idea Rase. Like the recent "Review of my Campaign" thread, this has the potential to become a Sticky. However, it makes much more sense to have this placed in the "Classifieds" section than in the "General Discussion" section so I've gone ah…

in I need some simple banner graphics work done (artist needed) December 2011

Yup, looks fairly legit. BTW, I like the idea of bartering with one's skills. I knew a guy who did some logo work for a local trucking company in order to secure free shipping for a year. Cheers, -Arsheesh

in Artist available December 2011

Rase, if only time allowed I'd love to bring it back myslef. Alas however, I'll be otherwise occupied with acadamia for the forseeable future. However, if anyone else feels like raising the dead, here's the link to that Lazarus "WIP Thread":http:/…

Welcome to the Portal Horsecanswim, it is great to see some new artistic talent joining our ranks. About a year ago there was an artistic Renaissance that occurred within the forums, wherein many people within the community began posting their artw…

Hey there Maze Controller, welcome to the Portal! To answer your last question, currently the Portal does not have any file hosting features other than the media upload feature. I've always thought this would be a really handy feature to have, esp…
