Troll Lord Games

Thanks for the input, if anyone has a listing by spheres or school, I would love to have it... I will make an attempt at it too.

Ask yourself has my mage cast fireball more than my thief back stabs?

Natural 20 on a back stab.... does it do extra damage?

Sneak Attack is so weak... might as well let the poor class do it all it can that's reasonable... back attack aka backstab is rare too.

Morty, Please shoot me an email about the next Domesday... I have stuff for you, but have once again lost your email.

Did you find it? Download from Knights of the Crusade or download from the troll store at no cost?

Yep, Its Domesday 8. Nice little article on conversions. You can download your free copy of Domesday 8 (and all the others) at the Knights of the Crusade website in the free download section. Here is a bit... CONVERTING MONSTERS In most write ups we will endeavor to include sufficiently detailed sta...

Not much is needed, but I have not done it too often.

There is a Domesday 8 I think (if not 8 then 7 or 9) which has guidelines for conversions.

Focusing on 1st and 2nd level spells only, do you all see spells like: Chant, detect charm, resist fire, snake charm, and speak with animals? I see the last two as too druidic. detect charm could be allowed with detect magic. Chant and Resist fire could be added or something like them that blends wi...

Very cool level of detail.

Great input, particularly got a smile to the polytheist point of view... we've been living in a monotheist so long folks always say.. many gods to choose from, pick one... way back when they would have thought you crazy... you may, due to your job or primary efforts have a patron, but you must recog...

So every cleric of every god has the same spell list with no variation... Granting access to some but not others, dipping into druid, mage or illusionist spells to add uniqueness. I would love a custom spell list for each deity... in the days of Priest 2.0 I did just that... access to spheres varied...

OK, so let's start using the boards again...

Wait, Zombies have vital spots, head shot...

6# sword in one hand, by view of the thing it is heavy at the end... you better be strong to use this thing.

Great to hear from you here. Great point of view.

This thing does 2d6 like the 2-H sword. The bastard is d10 but 2-H d12. How is the Greater Scimitar NOT a 2-H weapon?

Is this a troll type-o or is this intentional and thus simple the most 1-H damaging weapon on the list?

Thoughts?

Here is a proposal... wizards research and learn spells all the time... a new spell to them is new... all laid out and ready to use from a book or scroll... but why should making a new one be SO costly and expensive... if the PC is willing to do the work and the CK to check it, let the PC make them ...

I hope to see more here than, great to hear.

What percent of your time is on this original board vs the Knights of the Crusade?

Speaking of Cutting both ways, A) We were just playing a game where the head assassin (Ruke?) came out of a wall, natural 20 on his back attack with powerful poison on the blade, and the CK gave 2x damage (likely the FG machine did this) for everything.... the guy went from full h.p to negative with...

The boards have been dead. When I first started at the boards, it was my first at any board... I got a tongue lashing by Ardune.

I hope life picks back up here... I hear its moved to other sites and formats like Discord.

Carona boredom?

In my history, back attacks and assassinations are rare... same for a Monk's Death Touch.

But I'm playing a game where the CK allows the thief to back stab anytime they are in the back or can get at the back, no surprise needed.

one more old DnD nod... but do we really want to slow combat more?

sorry about this ref, but New movie of Caspar... you can possess.. but to control takes power from the Ghost... rate it hp vs hp and so long as the ghost is in possession its burning "possession" hit points... when they are gone, it looses possession and then is tired? Or each round the possessed ge...

I wondered what got so many folks back tot he boards to post.... to bad its a old memory.. look at other spells of second level power.. +/- 50% size limit on growth.. so let that be a guide to sizes... "natural creatures only" also seems like a guide, by natural I mean mythic without a tone of spell...

How would you rule the time to remove a standard back pack? A full 10 sec? scale it based on that.

1 of 10 seconds in the round is "no time", I would agree. The 3 of 10 seconds sounds like a half move then some other action allowed with the half move. I think that might be what you state... but 3 sec should not be a full move and thus no other actions that round.

Good for you, the more you get involved the more fun. Creating themed special spells is in the game's history (Tenser, Otto, and many others I never spell right). Really new and novel are hard to come up with, but cool changes are nice too. A green wizard who's spell affects are all green... simple....

Dispel Magic claims to be an INT roll by the caster... making the Illusionist or Wizard better at it than the Druid or Cleric on average. We've had this discussion in other threads and I like your inputs... WIS for divine and INT for arcane is one option making each good at their type of magic. How ...

What a great summary!
