    Minis or Theatre of the Mind? (Survey)

    I love miniatures and I've been collecting them for decades, but although my collection is very extensive, it always seems that I don't have quite the mini I want for a specific encounter, or I don't know where it is. You could say that I could just substitute another mini for it and let...

    No problem, hope you get good use out of it :)

    Using hit points to power magic

    It's not something I'd thought about, but I guess it could be considered an extension of necromantic magic. It would have to be the same sort of power level as other energy-draining spells, plus a bit to account for the fact that you get to make use of the energy being drained. I see no reason...

    Using hit points to power magic

    You make a good point — I shall have to do some calculations. Something else that was suggested is the advantage that high-hit-point casters (e.g. clerics) would have. That could be balanced, I think, by focusing the creation of magical power reserves more, perhaps exclusively, towards arcane...

    Using hit points to power magic

    OK, here's my initial plan for hit-point costs for spell-use. To cast any spell, it costs you (1d6 + spell level) points, which comes off your maximum hit-point total. Note that point: off your MAXIMUM hit point total. That means that magic use may actually cost you hit-points, but more...

    How to Encourage Melee Combat in a Sci-fi Setting? (5e)

    In ship-board combat, a miss with a destructo-ray or explodium grenade is inevitably going to damage something else — maybe something important, like life support controls. If it's a culture that uses fields for ship armour, it might even punch right through the hull. In that situation, if you...

    Complete AD&D-style Sandbox Wandering Monster Tables for 5e

    That's great, thanks so much. I was just thinking about doing something similar, and now I don't have to. :)

    D&D 5E D&D 5th Edition DM SCreen

    I know. As my campaign proceeds, and I get more experience with 5e, my house rules increase. That's why I haven't updated this file any more; the information I present on it is getting to be divergent enough from canon that the current state of the screen would be of less and less use to anyone...

    D&D 5E Gaining Additional Skills

    I'm pretty happy with the way skills are handled in 5e; I've never been very fond of super-detailed and/or prescriptive skill systems, regardless of how "realistic" they may purport to be. Having said that, I am quite happy for my players to set out to get training in new skills in-game, but...
