Troll Lord Games

<r>To be honest, I want to do this because I always thought it would make more sense that either the silver piece or copper piece was the main money system for non-adventurers. I want the players to be able to relate to commoners more by having them aquire the same kind of money they do during some ...

I might just check out the copper piece standard...

I wish to create a silverpiece standard for my new campaign world. How would you go about making it take place? I am keeping magic items in gp standard though.

Thanks guys. I plan on putting a respectible character into a deep slumber that mimic's death. I dont have the resources mentioned but i will begin hunting for them.

How would one go about creating a cursed long lasting fairy tale-style sleep?

I am considering the old edition elf class but I dont know much about it. Where would I find info on this old class?

I am currently using campaign creation information from 3.5 DMG and DMG2. I am using the 2nd edition monster's manual and attempting to find my Dungeon Builder's Guide from 2nd ed.

I bought into hackmaster. I love the comics because they spark my need to game. Unfortunately the game itself it much too costly. I have about everything I need to play but my players are scared of trying it.

Thanks for the sources. I actually did at one point own the thiefs kit guide for 2nd ed. I just dont know what happneed to all the 2nd ed books I own. The only one I can find is the monster's manual.

Anyway, I am currently working on a thieves, assassin, and fighter's guilds.

Actually that helps a lot! Thanks for the quick reply too.

Its not like i want my players to create arsenals, I am mostly complaining about the costs of scrolls.

Now that's what I call fall damage. Any more dice and I might have thought you confused the dragon ball z rpg with C&C. A fake wish would be pretty cruel though lol.

How would you go about creating guilds for the game?

<t>I dident think of the game as low magic. I just noticed that magic costs a lot more than I am used to. I am going to consider this matter further though. I was thinking of letting players start with items akin to their trade (training sword for a fighter, etc) and magic users might get a scroll o...

Do you think it would be too much if I had wizard or illusionist player characters start with a few scrolls of spells they know?

<t>I was looking at the costs lately and I wondered why it sometimes costs so much to make magic items. Even creating scrolls is a little expensive. I am sure that the only reason item creation is so expensive is to deter people from creating too many artifacts. But I also dont understand how people...

Ahh yes, i completely forgot that you wont get hung for changing something like this with castles.

<t>I am going to begin my first campaign either saturday or sometime in the very near future. I was thinking of giving PC's an HP Kicker to start.I am currently considering two methods. Either give a 5 hp kicker as well as max 1st HD or 10 hp kicker with a normal die roll.<br/> <br/> If you have use...

Why is wish a wizard spell and not an illusionist spell? I thought Illusionists where masters of reality manipulation.

Yeah, i was wondering how to tell whether a monster is a good challenge for my party.

Where does it mention how to gauge monster HD vs player level?

W007! I got my copy of the Players hand book today. I havent yet gotten the chance to read it though.

I use modules as a springboard. It gets things going and then I take it in whatever direction it goes. Even if it means ignoring the rest of the module.

That dosent sound like a bad idea. I might have to try this.

blackridge sounds cool and I like the dragonsfoot website. I do however want to get back into creating my own games again. I think I might read some of the modules and try to remember how it was done.

<t>i couldent wait so i bought monsters and treasures. Now I am trying hard to think of some motivations and such for adventures. What works for your group? what have you done in the past? where do you find ideas for campaigns? its been a long time since I have ran my own D&D game and I am looki...

I am so sorry to hear that. I hope my prayers are heard tonight.

Edit. wow, i should have read the update first. I am glad your peeps are healing and all that. I am also glad to know about your handfasting. good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions. So far, it sounds like I made a good choice by getting into this game.

<t>I just found out about castles yesterday and I cant wait to get my hands on it. I have a question though. One of the main reasons I started disliking d&d was because of its emphasis on killing for xp. Does this game do a good job of handing xp to players who dident kill as many creatures or d...
