so is that from a poem about N'ar l'ens??

Well thanks for all the input, points well made about over buffing characters. I will just write up some Hirelings to handle various sections. Again thanks for the input, a quick and elegant solution to the issue, and with a hireling you are not really spoon feeding success and plot to the PCs you a...

Thanks Graphil! I haven't set down with all the maps yet, but once the PC's start running through them those will become clear as day. How many randoms are you adding to pump the levels? It is always better to create a side quest in my opinion to grant the exp's. Otherwise the party feels they level...

Well, as a GM that will be running the Drow Wars Campaign. I have just begun reading book 2. I found the plot in book 1 to be very sound, alot of the players movements while linear will not be forced. There is some very fast paced sections, followed by a slowing do what you want period, only to have...

Since your players are almost to the temple . . . any words of advice?

Suggestions, issues, or problems you have had to deal with?

I noticed the Mass combat system had some similarities to the one from AEG in WAR and Rokugan. In the Rokugan system if you could go 3 rounds heavily engaged and live you where a genuine hero. I have not started the Drow camp, but looking at the mass combat system, in which both sides are loosing so...

I am still reading Book 1. I plan to start the campaign for my group after my wedding in May. However, from what I have seen in Book 1 all you NEED is the 3 Core books. That will grant you the basic Rule system for D20. And allow you play. Most of the monsters and villians, even a great number of NP...

Payote and Myself designed one when the game first came out. You can find a link to the topic here:

Hope that helps you out,

If any of your players are starfury pilots. Check out: http://www.babylon5gamer.org/B5d20/gmtools.php They also have some excel character sheets, Companies make the graphics heavy "Cool" Character sheets. With the advent of household desktop publishing software, Publisher, Word, Works, Excel, Quark,...

Well, just use the "normal" starting wealth rules for the game. You will get the down trodden hero feel. We had one player after creation, manage to buy a couple of items and a gun. He was then broke.

You what? Bow? Greatness? Uh . . . <looks around> You can't be serious, all I did was ask the question, will this work? so, uh, I guess it does?? Hmmm, I will have to remind myself to get the cybernet book out and double check my answer. . . . Some how I think maybe fixer could be a good match as we...

Hmm,

Intresting, Do you think you could simply take the corp class and just use the contacts skill tree, and other treefor rocker style contacts and goods? Then focus on Perform skills? Not to mention Bluff, and Intimidate.

What about space sickness, he did just land on the planet. Or better yet . . . INSANITY! His current mind set about, "I only kill the bad people to help the good people" would make him certifiable.

As for threatened areas, I am still reading my lone wolf book. Our groups list of games is quite full, and lonewolf may have to wait till winter sets in.

Rule 1. Have fun. Rule 2. It's your game, the rules are suggestions. Do what works for your group. Rule 3. If you're going to give a freebee to one player, give the other players something of equal value. Rule 4. Have fun. Sidney I concur, Sidney! And in the effort to grant a suggestion. The B5 uni...

I see the main answer being put forth is: Thats the rules! Deal with it. Thus, my players and I have delt with it. (By creating a simple houserule) And we will be happy about it. :) Now, I will go back to lurking, and let you discuss other possibilities on a way to fix the Balance Skill issue. Howev...

crizh, Your points are well made about balancing class abilities with skill points. However, I still do not understand your cross class arguement in regard to "Hobby Skills" As to class/cross-class, while it is possible to learn skills that are not directly related to your profession it is harder to...

That sounds interesting, do you have any details on this 'classless' system. I have heard the idea mentioned but never seen anything written down. Shem, It seems I am not typing plainly. I do not have a classless system. I simply play it that there are no cross class skills. I treat every possible ...

This was discussed a wee time ago, and August Actually wrote an article for it . . . here is the thread:
