Troll Lord Games

I like her very much, and will definitely look for opportunities to use her.

Any chance of continuing your medieval monsters series? I enjoy pretty much all of your monsters.

I'd say around two or three levels later. It can fly, but it doesn't have too much else over a heavy warhorse. I suppose it depends on how valuable you think the ability to fly is.

EDIT: I didn't realize that a pegasus is also intelligent. Level 10+ it is!

Congratulations greenman!

<t>In the spirit of the games that the Red Mage comes from, I have the following suggestions:<br/> <br/> - Spell slots should be unified into one type. The limited quantity of spell slots and the severely restricted spell lists should already go quite far in preventing a Red Mage from being worth tw...

Nooooooooooooo, stop it! Stop that at once! >:-(

Perhaps you should define "encounter" to mean something like two or three turns?

I'm pretty sure all the regular games are full. Maybe ssfx or Wulfgarn have room, but I think they play on the days you can't.

Actually, thegreenman is already in my Friday night game, and was the one who set up the wiki.

That is definitely what I would call "dedicated."

I used Amazon.com so did not have any problems.

If you want the Troll Lords to have more minions, perhaps you would like to volunteer for some unpaid manual labor?

I like very much!

<t>For me, the difficult part is not to rationalize why illusion magic works at all, but rather, how it can be not too far behind wizard magic and yet have a totally different set of saving throws to resist or negate the effects.<br/> <br/> The way I see illusionists (compared to wizards) is that th...

I can't do it anymore. It was so much easier when my chemicals hadn't settled down yet. Now, it's nearly impossible for me to not think of fine steak, fine women, or bloody battle.

If the change can be done through find/replace, go ahead and do it.

He was truly a critical element of the chemistry on Stargate. He will be missed.

I don't see anything wrong with druids (and clerics) lugging around weapons that hit hard. Their limitations are because of ideology or religion. And anyways, what is steel if the hand that wields it does not have a very good bonus to hit?

If you have a lot of time on late Friday nights, you may be interested in my currently-running game: http://sites.google.com/site/cckeytotheheart/

The players are fairly laid-back and good roleplayers for the most part.

I'm working on house rules to allow spellcasters to cast spells that they already know as rituals. I may also steal some spells here and there.

Yes, I definitely agree. You would simply need to design abilities that are based on ability level.

What's your schedule for the game?

Also, TLG is a bit busy slaving away at all of their C&C products. I think it's fair to say their time is booked for the next two or three years at minimum.

*cracks whip* Work harder, brothers Chenault!

<t>As far as I can tell, 4e uses C&C-style saving throws. However, the fortitude / reflex / willpower system exists alongside it, as something like AC ratings. For example, when casting magic missile, you have to make an "INT attack roll" and defeat the target's Reflex score.<br/> <br/> This mak...

I had no idea it was even possible to create a site like that. I think I'll be manually saving the pages to my computer as HTML.
