I just bought a square grid map, and am going to run a dungeon module, but have a question. I can see in the players handbook, that a character threatens and can attack the four adjacent squares and the four diagonal squares, but what about movement? Can the characters move like a queen...

Alright, I'm not posting MY characters or NPCs here. Instead I have a question ABOUT USING them, for the people in the thread that know 'em best! Im about to DM 3rd for the first time. I'm running the Sunless Citadell module, and it says its, "Designed for a party of 1st level characters, or...

I have three very self-centered PCs in my campaign at the moment. When the chance to talk comes up, or the chance to make a "funny" comment... a random two or alll of them will try to blurt something out at once. They haven't decided on a leader for the group, in fact, the characters actually...

We are hunting for other players, but in the meanwhile, we have two and a DM. We're having fun, but having two PCs isn't so hot. We thought of playing with more than one character per player, but... we feel the game loses too much intimacy. So, another option is adding some DM controlled...

Heya experts! Need a quick ruling on Weapon Finesse! I have a ranger using two short swords. Thanks to two-weapon fighting he attacks with both each round. If he takes weapon finesse, can he use his dex bonus for both attacks? Yes? The PH says nothing about two weapon attacks in conjunction...

...then come down to my Online Sci-Fi & Fantasy Book Reading Group at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Beyond_Reality Each month, this group elects TWO books (one from each genre); then we read the hell out of them; then we discuss the hell out of them! Why?! To discover some great new books...

I'm sure this has been posted billions of times, but I couldn't find the string. So I'll throw it up here in hopes that someone can give me a good answer! What are some of the best FREE map making programs out there for D&D?! Nothing to complex to learn, or time-consuming- Just a quick solid...

Just curious... 1. How much info should a DM give the player about a monster he's just come face to face with? ex: A newbie might not know that Trolls don't care for fire, or to run away from a beholder if he's only first level. 2. On the other hand, I have a few players who have basically...

I know some people do this... In my campaigns, we don't keep track of carried weight too much. We eyeball it, and keep it to common sense. But there are two main factors that sometimes give us trouble: Do any of you put a limit on how much gold, or how many potions a PC can carry at any...

I'm involved a few different games right now, and in one you can buy any magic item you want, if you have enough dough and go to the right store in town. This seems silly to me. In another game I'm in, the only magic items you get are spoils! This includes Healing potions and such. So if we...

Hey everyone. We all know the six standard attributes: Str, Dex, Con, Int, Wis, Cha How do you handle a characters appearance/comliness/beauty? One of my friends plays a swash-buckeling character whom he decided is "one of the most handsome gents in the land", and since there is nothing to...

I have a CN, 1/2-Elf Rogue-Ranger in a game with some of my friends. They are having a problem accepting him. Their characters don't have a problem with him, mind you. Its out of game that they raise complaint. They don't think I am motivating him properly. We write histories, and describe our...

I play in three separate D&D groups. One with three of us. One with 8. And one with 5. And here's something I noticed... Nobody will play a wizard or sorcerer. Unless, it's as a second class that is. They will consider adding one of those two classes after they've gotten more hit points from...
