Troll Lord Games

<t>Hey all, <br/> <br/> Probably only the trolls can answer my prayers here, but is there a Hi-Res version of the picture at the top of the Trolllord Game's new site? The one with the (looks like) hobbit fem trying to fast talk three trolls? What I really want to do is print an 11" * 34" (4 page wid...

In the 2E days, I remember how people hated the fact that Rangers could cast spells (and a lot of the FR Rangers in novels, DIDN'T ever cast spells, Icewind Dale trilogy and Moonshae trilogy come to mind). Not true. Drizzt cast a Wi...

Obviously you already have contributed a lot. I use your (co-authored) book all the time. But that's doesn't mean you get ...

If I only had the time to devote properly to such a project...

Just do one page. It only takes 10 minutes to do a page. Would you like pg. 98? No one's taken it.

<t>I like Metathiex's system. It is similar to Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved, which is one of my favorite magic systems. I use pretty much that exact system for Clerics and Druids.<br/> <br/> I have taken another route for Wizards, however, as a pet project. My system can be summarized as follows:<br/...

<t>I really like conditional magic, as naturaltwenty describes. I will probably adopt it. <br/> <br/> As for customizing the class in a more rulesy / crunchy way, I would leave the spell list alone and swap out Turn Undead. TU is only appropriate for some gods / faiths. It would be fairly easy to im...

<t>To beat the dead horse a little (I just thought of this after posting the last), using the "Does not stack" rule actual discourages racial archetypes. I mean, why would you bother taking the hit of losing a Prime as an elven ranger, when half your racial abilities just don't matter by 2nd level? ...

d20 + Dex mod + Level, once at the beginning of combat. Baddies have a fixed initiative of 12+HD

Yeah, higher level characters (and monsters) have more highly trained reflexes.
