I uploaded the Shadow Dwarf to the Moon Shadows project page for my #bx #dnd #ose #osr setting. Shadow dwarves (or duergar) suffer from the Chorus Curse. They hear a cacophony of voices in their mind. To get them out of their head, they psychically project them into animated poppets, semi-independent servitors. If you like being a druid or ranger with a bunch of pets but wish you could be a weird subterranean albino too, this is the class for you. So many little guys!

Played some more of my D&D but with percentages, version 2. The players were kind enough to agree to playing a modified version of the rules.

Previous game, we tried out Damage Reduction "DR" for armor instead of having "AC". You can find a version of DR in the 3E Unearthed Arcana, page 110.

3e Unearthed Arcana is one of my favorite books by the way. It is similar to the 2e Player's Options: Skills & Powers. It is like a toolkit of alternate rule ideas.

The problem, if it is a problem, became the fights really dragged out. The DR reduced damage being done so much, that it felt like the battle was a series of 12 rounds where everyone did 1 hp of damage each round.

So, for the new modified game, we tried out that armor just has its own "hit points" and it can absorb any damage taken. When it gets to 0 hit points, the armor needs to be repaired.

The result was, everyone's armor got destroyed after just 1 combat encounter with some kobolds.

And the player's complained like they usually do. They had this nice safety net of DR keeping them from taking big damage and now they do not have it.

The new player said this homebrew game is much deadlier than D&D. I had to seek some clarification. They meant 5th edition D&D.

Still, everyone had a good time and agreed to keep testing next game.

Como Google me tiene aislado el blog, tampoco me salen las publicaciones automáticamente aquí. Pero por si acaso, que no os enteraríais, la semana pasada publiqué en el blog un artículo con un objeto mágico reshulón:

CORONA DE PÓCIMAS

Un poderoso objeto mágico que permite a los personajes consumir pócimas sin usar las manos. Porque hay magia más allá del pegar más. También está el poder hacer otras cosas mientras pegas igual.
