Hi ChainsawXIV, I have a pending template revision: Kenurion ADnD. It's backward compatible with the current version. Would definitely appreciate it getting released. Thx! kenurion

In-game Politics
June 2011
Hi Chomsky2, Here are some suggestions: 1/ Don't make it too complicated. Create 4-6 major political entities the party is likely to deal with (as enemies, allies or something in between). You don't need to map out the whole world. This lis…

Damage behind or across the screen
June 2011
I had a DM once who didn't even let us roll dice much less see how they came up. That was some of the best gaming in my experience.

Greetings from Pennsylvania!
June 2011
I should clarify. I use tactical maps, I just don't share them with my players. I describe what they see based on the map I have in front of me.

Hi BeefGriller, Here's a partial list of pbp and on-line games associated with OP. http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/compendium-of-pbp-on-line-campaigns I personally run an AD&D 2nd edition PbP game that's been going for over a yea…

Base of Operations: Castle, or Airship?
December 2010
Players have too much loot and no where to stash it? Why is this a DM problem? Let them figure out how to deal with it. You might provide a few trustworthy NPC's to facilitate options (NPC's they've helped in the past who owe them, relatives, etc…

"Scabbards EVERYWHERE!" - Managing Carried Items
November 2010
Ah, now _that_ sounds interesting... characters dumping their crap in order to flee, characters not willing to dump their crap to chase fleeing enemies who have dumped _their_ crap... I'll have to think about this some more. Thanks!

"Scabbards EVERYWHERE!" - Managing Carried Items
November 2010
1. Strict. Yes, I do limit what they can practically carry even if it's within their nominal encumbrance rating. 2. I use character sheets on OP to track encumbrance and practical overload. I look over players' sheets (especially low STR charac…

magic and warfare
November 2010
That's a great list. I would spend some thought on defensive magic. Stuff that improves the resistance of units to magical attacks, contingency triggered dispell magic devices, nullification zones that void all magic, parasitic magical organisms t…

Game Prep: NPC Spells?
October 2010
number one rule, never tell the players the name of the spell being cast. if you do, they will look it up, and chances are you will have overlooked some idiotic detail and they will argue to reverse the effect, re-roll, whatever. if you just descr…

Ideas for Gladiator Games
October 2010
Throw in something the characters have a role-playing problem with killing. If there's a druid/ranger, throw in some rare wild animals; if the characters are good, throw in some child-gladiators or obviously charmed combatants; if there are priests…

Hi Okami00! I run a PbP on OP. Consistent posting is important. I have an informal rule that I will move things along as DM after 3-4 days of silence. Players who go on extended hiatus b/c of trips or whatever let me know, and I just depriorit…

August 2010
In Google, you can force the search engine to only look within a single top-level website. One of my players (greengranolaguy) figured this out. http://www.google.com/support/websearch/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=136861 In the example belo…

Try this text. Doesn't do exactly what I think you're describing, but maybe it's close enough. Type this in the individual entry. You can see how it works on my adventure log. http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/saga-of-jaraah/adventu…

Ad&d 2nd edition- does anyone still play it????
August 2010
I wouldn't claim it superior to anything else, it's more of a sunk cost consideration for me. Besides the $ spent on books, there's also the time spent reading them. I'm comfortable with making up house rules to patch it up as needed.

How to handle exclusive player-DM information
July 2010
Yes, it could be done that way, but I think people who are looking for this feature want the convenience of a centralized archive as well as doc layout tools. I just had someone ask me if I could split the DST I created into a public section (bio a…

Ad&d 2nd edition- does anyone still play it????
July 2010
Jasonias, if you run a 2.0 PbP campaign, I'd love to play (haven't played AD&D in about 20 years, been DM'ing since the ninth grade). Like Idabrius, I also get nostalgic for playing a character. If Idabrius and Duskreign are in, that's 3 player…

Ad&d 2nd edition- does anyone still play it????
July 2010
By the way, if you want to run a PbP campaign, there seems to be a fairly steady trickle of AD&D veterans who show up on OP interested in PbP games. I started with 6 players from my old table-top crowd, 2 backed out, but I've found 3 more in th…

Hi Jasonias, There are over 200 AD&D 2.0 campaigns on this site (click on "Campaigns", then select AD&D 2.0 in the frame on the right). I'm running a 2.0 PbP campaign. I have room for one more. Take a look! http://www.obsidianport…

Make extra pre-gens, that way nobody gets stuck with the pre-gen character that nobody else wants.

Dealing with Dangerous Encounters & PC Death in Your Campaign

I thought I was making a joke, and you gave me a serious answer. I appreciate the context. Prosthetic replacements sound fun. I like your golem adaptation.

High magic campaigns
July 2010
This makes sense. The way I understand what your saying is that in a magic-rare world, raw numbers of non-magic-users provide an effective check against magic-users, thus enabling play-balance. In a magic-rich world, play-balance is still necessar…
