They get an ability for every session they turn up...

Honestly, doing something for VTT would be too much work for PB's. Especially with the future of those other platforms uncertain due to the impact of the WoTC VTT.
Online presence is super important but I wouldnt be a good use of PB's' time until theyve seen the dust settle.

The Dark Elf

Yes I do. I really do.

The Dark Elf

Lot's of useful knowledge.

To add. It's also a fake world so you can amend as you see fit. Using IRL is a solid basis but don't forget to suit your world version of Palladium and you players.

The Dark Elf

It can be a "good" or "bad" thing depending on your playstyle but the PFRPG bad guys aren't given averages. Therefore fight an "elf bandit" (as an example) means that the bandit could have +10 to strike parry dodge or more or they could have +0. And that isnt even depen...

The Dark Elf

Cant recall any text on it, but we play that without a HTH skill the only attack you can do is the human fist (punch) as it's the lowest damage (it's 1D4).

The Dark Elf

There's a debate about what constitutes as ground but I don't allow levitation to begin from the air at all (so u cant use it to stop from falling either). But if someone levitated a cheetah running really fast I would rule that it stops horizontal movement and levitates up but doesn't take damage f...

The Dark Elf

I roll 3D6 eight times then allocate the scores to which every attributes I want. I don't change the results, just which attribute that result is allocated to.

The Dark Elf

I have allowed a mind bond (in the fantasy game) to allow knowledge of learned spell magic! But the limitation is amount of PPE the psychic has. It was an intersting way for the party to temporary have access to a spell of legend for a specific scenario.

The Dark Elf

Well, I'll address these in order. There's no such thing as attribute checks. And what number would these strike roles be against-just above a 4? Another house rule we add (I say another cos the first house rule is attribute checks, lol) is - in Rifts you can move and shoot at -6. So we allow a &qu...

The Dark Elf

LoB has maps of the elf-dwarf battles and besieged cities (and gravesites, battlefields and territories). Useful for locations. Place of Magic was dwarven as well.

The Dark Elf

Weapon.

BUT, that shouldn't be the limitation of the enchantments. Allocate whatever you feel is relevant and there is definitely loads of armour features that I would allow in my games, as well as other enchamtents from rings etc.

The Dark Elf

No - because that would be uncouth.

The Dark Elf

They answered this in one of the weekly updates I almost sure. It was definitely this year, but you'll have to do the trawling.

The Dark Elf

I trained with spear fighting and the drills were so repetitive to strike with a stabbing motion of a question mark (well, the top hook part) for the reason of ensuring that the chance of the spear head getting stuck in minimised. In game terms the smallest action cost is 1 action. So maybe if you a...

Boot Camp - Nice.
2nd level they are gonna be spending MONTHS without levelling - thats potentially a lot of sessions! Could get frustrating.
After that it seems like the options should be up to the players. They might like where they are...
Let them create THEIR merc company how they want it.

The Dark Elf

I dont recall any. Not even the Wolfen Tribes.

Buy a dog. Visit a butchers. Buy the bones for your dog....

Then slaughter the dog and use it bones!

The Dark Elf

IMHO (my initial thoughts): 1.Something that is holding your normal weight. 2. Gravity 3. Nope - ship moves on (if it was a flying ship you'd better be able to float down somehow or your screwed). 4. Nope (see #3) 5. No. You levitate within reach, grab on, cancel spell and you can now move onto the ...

The Dark Elf

I wouldn't make them any more special. I'm more into the race for the role playing sake and humans make up the dominant civilisations in most of the Palladium World which is a big advantage.

The Dark Elf

Well, to be honest, I didn't even read that book fully. It was not interesting. I thought it was a decent enough book (not finished it yet though). Lot's of stuff which is optional and that optionality is always good for GM's. I like gods but often worlds can be overpopulated with them. I would've ...

What Ones do You want?

New content. I dont want content I already own even if it's orderly.

The Dark Elf

Well I wouldnt want to amend the rules from written in any of my games but if I were to: I think the force is actually generated by thought (think a mind bolt) however the more the psychic believes it's powerful the more damage it does (hence the punch/kick difference). So maybe with that trail of t...

I have it sound like a voicemail.

I guess the birds could look different - or maybe their are variations of the spell depenadent on who taught you. So all yours look the same but someone else's might look slightly different maybe(?)...

The Dark Elf

Well, DE, you are out of your mind with the free stacking. I know it would take around 1 million gold, but in theory someone could wear 10 rings that boost PS by 10 each and boost their PS by 100. That's a cool +85 damage. That's assuming only one ring per finger! No denying it! Do you get +85 dama...

Same.

Save per each cloud.

Save clouds dont have cumulative damage but if you dont save again on the last cloud then the duration may now be longer.

Different clouds DO stack.

All IMHO.

The Dark Elf

IMO: 1. Yes 2. No. It enables you to perform tasks as if your attribute was high but does not later your physiology to get there. 3. Yes. I would honestly also say if the ring power says +10 to PS then 2 would equal +20. The wording is plus ten so multiple are cumulative! If like some spells it indi...

The Elemental can manipulate its shape to rinse the flour off. Plus the water elemental is a being so does the flour actually mix with the water or just lay on top of it?? A lot depends on the amount of flour (I expect its not a lot) Also the heat isn't a slow bake so it my not rise (not that I know...

Did we KS the D'bees2 book? I cant recall. If so, that should be published before launching any other KS - and really should be finished before any other publications. I have never heard of a D'Bees 2 book. PB has only done one KS, that was RTT, and the only outstanding Insider crowd funding is Bes...

Every conversation at the start. I then use the difference between any fail and the skill to denote the jist of what they can pick up (if anything).

Shifter and LLW are very different and clear character concepts.

The Dark Elf

Well, we're starting a campaign in the Western Empire so I went back to look at that book. It's great. But I saw that many of the cities have problems with subterranean creatures like Ratling and Rattons. Why wouldn't they just hire a few warlocks to summon a couple of lesser elementals and tell th...

Great combo!

The Dark Elf

I GM'd for a group of 4 players for years and years. 3 had 3 OCC's, one had 4 OCC's. This was first edition and it wasnt unbalancing in Palladiums rules. It's one the reasons we like PFRPG. My "The Dark Elf" character is a 6th lvl wizard, 6th diabolist, 8th lvl Summoner and again it's not ...

The Dark Elf

This still going on? OMG! Any interpretations of the rules even misinterpretations aren't really house rules. A House rule would be someone knowing the rule works one way and choosing to ignore or amend that rule or add a new rule entirely. Even your interpretation isn't a house rule, it's a misinte...

The Dark Elf

Yeh - I can create anything I want sure but we are talking about what we want to see from the books. I am also talking about creating nations-if I was to do this in the western empire I would be overwriting the content already there which again anyone can do but isnt something I want to. I like to u...

Prysus is thorough, cites evidence in his arguments and is engaging to OP for a debate to see where the thought process was. OP - others have cited evidence as well to back their claims. And their approach merits consistency. Yours does not (especially on the part of others effect acts like they hav...

The Dark Elf

Curbludgeon put it nicely. But Drewkitty you can houserule it in your game any way you want it it be so you shouldnt feel bound by what Palladium has written. In fact it is encouraged to play it off RAW if you prefer it a certain way.

The Dark Elf

What is a 3 or 5 level of edit and what on earth was this post from the title?

The Dark Elf

Ive not checked the book but you quoted sentence reads as though it's only talking about doing so without loss of potency.

If LotD 3, Lopan, Phi, LotSW, OK books all came out I think I would be a little sad. The regions are then written up. I remember someone saying at the POH that the Isle of the Cyclops needs more detail and my reaction was "Absolutely not!" - Let GM's create as well. Yes there is still area...

The Dark Elf

1st edition the animals had a lot of attacks. I always remember thinking it was a lot and then when we played and I used those attacks to dodge it balanced out the encounters.

The Dark Elf

I do the same as Vek - surprises are more narrative assassinations. Unless the surprise is an improved hide or something. If I need to its a prowl or perception (one roll for the players - not both. Theyre not opposed rolls). Just curious, what do you do when player(s) have detect ambush? I would u...
