Range: 5-25/70/300*

It would be more accurate to apply a penalty to fire at point-blank range, since it's just more difficult, not imp ...

I had been allowing a FP to affect only a single roll in my campaign, not wanting it to get out of hand and (specifically) ruin climactic fights or set pieces. I think that it has cheapened the FP so ...

It also makes me think it would be funny to have an Indiana Jones like archeologist in Star Wars who just happened to look a lot like Han Solo without actually being at all related. Characters that me ...

Does anyone know if any of the supplement books have rules for flash paks and temporary blindness?

Most rules I've seen (in various rpgs) for prone characters, which would specifically mean on the belly, have given a bonus against attacks at range, usually equal to about 1/4 cover, and a penalty to ...

I'm not saying you need to just give the advantages to your players without using a balancing disadvantage. If you want to adopt any of them for your own campaign you could easily just let them buy t ...

I havent really used any for species in general but in our ad&d game Elminster somehow came out like Sean Connery. In Star Wars, the ancient Jedi master Phineas Wolf, who shares many of the Elmin ...
