Nov 14	comment	Calculating and balancing challenge ratings That calculator is very helpful. I know raw numbers aren't the complete answer, but having them to hand makes it much easier.

Sep 28	comment	Combat rules for large battles Turns out it's going to be a long time till I actually run this game, so I'll return to the question and select an answer in due time. Thank you all for the answers.
Sep 6	comment	Beyond hit points: injury in D&D +1 for it being tied to the story and at the DM's discretion.
Sep 6	comment	Beyond hit points: injury in D&D I guess I'm trying to nudge the group in the direction of being willing to try a more sophisticated system, without scaring them off by doing it all at once.
Sep 6	comment	Beyond hit points: injury in D&D I don't want to kill that hero feeling, which is why I wouldn't disable the players on every single hit, or give them penalties without a chance to save.
Sep 6	comment	Beyond hit points: injury in D&D I guess my attitude might seem half-hearted, in not wanting to make the major modifications that D&D needs to become more realistic. My focus here is above all what's fun for the players; realism is only one means to that end. And the fact is, my gaming group are lazy hack-and-slashers, so trying to force them to play something too sophisticated is likely to fail. Fun is also the reason I favour specific nerfs over simply killing the PCs.

Sep 3	comment	How can you add character to in-game religions? +1 As a designer of character sheets, you've prompted me to go replace the word 'deity' in a dozen places.
Sep 3	comment	What can I do to keep my cool at the table? +1 for 6. If you treat the game as a place to explore unusual options, then losing the game can be a win.
Sep 3	comment	What can I do to keep my cool at the table? +1 for being willing to ask for advice. That's actually really mature.
