Thanks for the list Rigon

I will offer to trade "for cloud" and "hullo infantry terrain" (great name for a rock band) for a copy of stoneskin



Re: weapon specialisation changes. Seeing as I suggested it, I would have to count myself for it

How do cleave and dominance work with ranged weapons? I assume the 5' becomes 5' from the victim, but pack the rabble in tight enough and that could be a pretty big number of victims for my rain of woody death. However, I am up for the challenge

How does cleave work with reach weapons?

Fog Cloud and Hallucinatory Terrain. No switchies.

I figured, but wanted to be sure.

Cleave and CD work the same for ranged and reach weapons as they do for melee weapons. I perhaps need to clean up the language as Cleave applies to another opponent if they are within 5 ft of the one the fighter dropped.

Ok, so I decided to give this a try. I changed how extra attacks are gained.

Extra Attacks: The martial classes gain additional melee/ranged attacks each round as they advance in level.
-fighters gain extra attacks at levels 6 & 13 (3 attacks max barring cleave)
-rangers, barbarians, berserkers, paladins, and cavaliers gain an extra attack at level 8 (2 attacks max)

I also changed the fighters weapon specialization to work with weapon groups, changed when cleave is gained (1st level instead of 2nd), and changed how combat dominance works.

Fighter: As the PHB, with the following changes/additions:
Weapon Specialization: At first level, the fighter selects one weapon group to become an expert with. The fighter gains a +1 to hit and damage rolls. This bonus increases by +1 every 6 levels thereafter (+2 at 7th, +3 at 13th, etc) to a total bonus of +5. At 7th level, the fighter can select a second group of weapons to specialize in for a +1 to hit and damage. This second group’s bonus to hit and damage increases by +1 every 6 levels thereafter to a maximum of +3 at 19th level. At 13th level, the fighter can select a 3rd weapon group at +1 to hit and damage. This group's bonus never increases.
The following weapon groups may be selected:
Axes: battle axe, bearded axe, hand/throwing axe, piercing axe, 2-handed axe, hatchet
Bows: longbow, short bow, comp longbow, comp short bow
Clubs: club, light mace, heavy mace, morningstar, godentag
Crossbows: hight crossbow, heavy crossbow, hand crossbow
Flails: sap, hight flail, heavy flail
Hammers: light hammer, war hammer, maul
Heavy Polearms: bardiche, glaive, glaive guisarme, guisarme, halberd, lucerne hammer, pike, ranseur
Lances: light lance, heavy lance
Large Blades: 2-handed sword, bastard sword, falchion, great scimitar, flamberge
Light Polearms: bec de corbin, bill or billhook, fauchard, fauchard fork, military fork, partisan, voulge
Long Blades: broad sword, long sword, scimitar, nine ring broad sword
Picks: light pick, heavy pick, crowbill
Punching Weapons: brass knuckles, cestus, katar
Reaping Weapons: scythe, sickle, hafted hook
Short Blades: short sword, rapier, tulwar, hook sword, flatchet
Small Blades: knife, cleaver, dagger, dirk, main gauche, poniard
Spears: spear, long spear, wolf spear, staff, triden, man catcher, sleeve tangler
Throwing Weapons: harpoon, javelin, aclis, dart, slings, bolas
Whips: cat-o-nine-tails, whip

Cleave: If the fighter slays his opponent, he may make an immediate attack against another opponent that is within 5 ft of his original target.

Combat Dominance: Beginning at 2nd level, a fighter can make one attack per level to opponents with half of the fighter’s hit dice. (ex: a 2nd level fighter can make 2 attacks against 1 HD opponent; 3 attacks vs 1 HD at 3rd level; 4 attacks vs 2 HD opponents at 4th level) Combat Dominance does not stack with extra attacks, but does stack with Cleave.

Just a reminder, I will not be able to run my game next week (5/26). I'll be working a concert at the park. Tree said he would run his game in place of mine, then I will be running a session on the 6/2.

[Treebore]

I may need to start the game up to an hour late, due to needing to get farming work done today (Crops need to be in on time!), if so, and I see enough of you waiting, I'll run the game, we'll get right into it, no chatting this time. Things may go faster than I anticipate, but we've had to do some work on the tractor, and its taking longer than expected, but if the plowing, etc... goes fast, I will still be on time.

Plan on doing the temple of Loki first, I haven't taken the time to upload the Lolth Temple yet. Took me a while to find maps I was willing to use.

[rom90125]

Is there a game tonight?

[Aramis]

Is there a game tonight?

No. Both Treebore and Rigon are absent this week.

[Treebore]

I am very likely to make tonights game.

[alcyone]

So, looks like the game has switched slots, and tonight is Rigon's game?

[Treebore]

OOPS! Never mind. Rigon, I am feeling crappy today, so I may not game. We'll find out come game time.

[Rigon]

Hope enough of you make it to play tonight.

As feared... Power brown out followed by flickering lights... I will try to jump on again in a moment.

[Rigon]

My game tonight.

[Rigon]

Hey guys, I hate to do this on such short notice, but I'm feeling like crap. I'm going to take tonight off and get some rest.

I can run mine if enough people show, IE 4 or more.

As long as the 4 includes you as DM, we should be good

[alcyone]

I can play. Are we doing your normal game or 5e?

[Treebore]

I can play. Are we doing your normal game or 5e?

Normal, and we have 3 confirmed, and I bet at least Kayolan will also show, so we have my game.

[Aramis]

The players are using C&C. Treebore's monsters are using 5E. Careful, they cause damage even when they miss!

[Rigon]

I'm assuming I'm running my game this week. Tree, let me know if that is correct.

R-

[Treebore]

I'm assuming I'm running my game this week. Tree, let me know if that is correct.

R-

It is your turn. So unless you say otherwise, it is your game.

Then prepare thyself to face the menacing ghost dragon of the Uth Tower.

[Kayolan]

So far only Rigon, Treebore and I are present, where is everybody?

[Aramis]

Where the other players at?

[alcyone]

Sorry, sleep caught up with me.

[Rigon]

No worries guys. We spent the time chatting. I didn't want to advance the game without every one because of the chance for a TPK in the next few encounters.

[Rigon]

My game Monday night. Hope everyone can make it. We should be wrapping up this little series.
