I'm looking at starting a campaign, online, for the blue moon people here. Anyone interested? I say 4.0 just becuase it's the one I know best. Also, I will provide the books to anyone who needs them, as well as help people learn. :D


Here's the 'quick start' rules from the D&D website. :) <!-- m --><a class="postlink" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/files/QuickStartRules.pdf">http://www.wizards.com/dnd/files/QuickStartRules.pdf</a><!-- m -->


Update


Everyone who's going to participate, go start on your characters.
For your stats! I am going to say: Roll 6d8. Reroll 1's. (No, not 1's and 2's. I'm already saying a d8 instead of a d6, You don't get to reroll 2's. >:[) Take the highest three for each stat.

For the newbies, or people who are just lazy: Download character builder trial, <!-- m --><a class="postlink" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dn">http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dn</a><!-- m --> ... terbuilder . Create a level 1 character, make sure you're custom rolling your dice (use <!-- m --><a class="postlink" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm">http://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm</a><!-- m --> - Cheating and changing the numbers is a no no!).

Also, when you get to buying items... Tack an extra 100g onto the standard amount. Then, email me your character at <!-- e --><a href="mailto:bayonetta2@gmail.com">bayonetta2@gmail.com</a><!-- e --> . Try and have the characters in by Saturday night, I'd like to do the first writeup and start this thing on Sunday.


This would be good to download - I know it's a lot of links, and I'm sorry. I'll try to prioritize the list.

As for the party dynamic - We have the Tank, Cleric, and the Rogue. Pick what you want to play. Another defender, another cleric, some strikers, a controller or warlord? It doesn't matter. Play what you will enjoy.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

Fuck, I was hoping it'd be lax with the rules.

But I guess freeformin' is left for the most optimistic when you want to have balance in a game...

I could be interested. What's the "point" to it? RP? Action? Smut?
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

4.0 IS fairly lax with rules. o.o





But yeh, this would just be an action based settup... I would feel weird about smut in my D&D.


((And I don't like 3.5... It's all about the numbers, less about the story. >:[

Eeeeh, I think 4th would be more comprehensible and easy to use on a internet forum.

I bet the MMO gamers will feel right at home :cool:
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

Yeah, I haven't played much DnD (more of a d20 Star Wars guy), but 3.5 is the only one I've touched. I heard all the crap they did with 4.0 so I'm like meh. Granted I mostly heard the SW changes, so I dunno. Haven't tabletop RPed in over a year ;_;

:p I AM a MMO gamer. :D Meet Esa!

Also, 4.0's system was based largely on d20 starwars.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

Yeah, and they made some weird changes I heard, and a bunch of them were ones the fans said they would not want. But oh well, I don't want to derail lol

I would prolly join if I had the time and energy to want to read up on 4.0, but oh well haha

Well, as much as I've gathered, it's easier to use and more action oriented. All Combat skills fit into one category, and Non-Combat skills in another. It's easy to use, and honestly, it's a good rendition. The whiners who fanatically criticized it would have critisized it even if Gygax plated the character sheets with gold.

TL;DR 4th suits our needs.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

Trying to figure out a way we could adapt a D&D campaign to the forums.... or if we'd need to go somewhere else. Is there any way to roll dice on here? /hmmm
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

Well, that I know (I could just use my own dice, actualy. I do play D&D and have atleast 30 sets. >.> wow. a lot of dice.

Don't worry about me, I got some dices for my own purposes.

/rolls 1, yells natural 20.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

XD I'm scared of people cheating -


"Oh, shit, let me use my daily...! /rolls a d20. 'YES I ROLLED A 20! That plus 13 = 33! 33 to hit Georges AC! ...(/hides the '1' on the dice roll)"

If people don't act like cunts and take it as a fun game, then it'll be fun.

Hell, if my dragonborn would get snuffed, I'd just lol.

Funny thing is that my group has a nice special rule. Natural 1's don't cause critical failures. Hella soft.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

That's not a special rule, that's just 4.0. You can implement house rules to have crit failures on 1, and Natural sucess on 20... but basic 4.0 has the '1 does not mean critical fail' rules.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

Our group plays basic rules with lighting rules modified. It's stupid they way they have it. There's no 'falloff'... just 'BAM, 5 square bright light! It's dark outside that!... what, no! that's no dim light beyond it, it's DARK. See, there's this light wall, right? Right after five squares.' that shit is stupid. -_-

Oooooh.

Well then. I thought all along that it was a house rule. But I do remember that we got some extra "creation/stat points". Maybe Something like 5, 8 or 10 extra I think.

Hey, so am I.

You might have seen ReaganKharn running around on Harshlands, but we'll save that for another topic.

But I suppose I still have a little bit of differences with D&D 4.0, but at this rate, I suppose I can give it a chance.
 
Re: Blue Moon + D&D 4.0!

So there's atleast three people. Let me start looking for a campaign, and see how many it needs. :)
