Carse and Tulan of the Isles ,now out of print were also done by Midkemia press then reprinted by Chaosium were good medieval cities as well. The Cities supplement is a great resource but would still have to create the town or city.

<t>Now days there are many fine miniatures available, but there is no standard size. In general I would say 25mm minis today are 28-30mm compared to the old Ral partha line. In a recent game I ran , a player chose a an old viking miniature to represent his dwarf fighter.<br/> <br/> Of the miniatures...

I had a pickpocketing wannabe wizard last week. I ruled it the same as Breakdaddy . He failed , tried to pickpocket a drunken thief at the Outs Inn. The Guild will be paying him a visit soon.

I haven't allowed them yet some players expect them. If I cave in to pressure I would give a natural twenty maxium damage.

I like serlerans' point if the palyers get them so do the monsters.

Newbies get max hp + con at 1st level, roll btb afterword. Replacement characters roll btb . Everyone gets one reroll that can be used for any attribute , hit points, or starting money ( you keep the best score ). So far most players rerolled for more money.

I voted yes because the secondary skills options are available in my CZ Yggsburgh campaign. The most of the players want skills ( 2 out of 3) and are not too keen on spending XP to pick up skills. I hope after tomorrows game they will see that skills are not necessary.

Yes it is in the Yggsburg book, I haven't even read much of the two expansions I own yet. Maybe it is a little too trivial... .

His lands are to the east offmap. Only mentioned briefly in an envirions of Yggsburgh adventure hook, and only stats given are for his men.
