[QUOTE="James Gasik, post: 9273304, member: 6877472"] So our current game is going on hiatus, which is why I'm starting a campaign. 5e is not my system of choice, but it's what they're used to, so.... Anyways, the current DM doesn't seem to care about tracking ammo, rations, water, or even carry capacity. The party has 2 bags of holding (one cursed to give you a level of exhaustion for carrying it around, so we have it stashed in a safe location) and I'm pretty sure we're over capacity. I track my own rations, crossbow bolts, and Healer's Kit uses and don't really pay it any mind. I could continue with this laissez faire attitude easily, but three things prompted these rules. 1- our current group has a Ranger, and he has complained that he feels his Natural Explorer ability doesn't really do anything. 2- I wanted to test out limited short rests per day that can be taken without interrupting the flow of the game and thought giving players the option to decide how often they can rest with their wallet would be interesting. 3- I wanted to make exploration and travel matter a little more in this campaign. 4- I wanted a happy medium between tedious bookkeeping and "the heck with it". The way I see it, the party will likely be able to keep themselves supplied a good 90% of the time without much fuss. Whether or not this becomes an issue when they're a few days out of town remains to be seen. They might also (by accident or design) game their way around the system (but I mean, you can do that already, so whatever). Mostly, I want to see if the group finds this interesting or not. If they don't, it's not a big deal. It only took me 45 minutes to write it, lol. [/QUOTE]
