I'd like to hear someone's take on Underground (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undergrou ... ying_game)). Never got to read/play it myself, but I was always fascinated by the adds for it in Dragon when I was a kid.

Death's Breath is probably the most important shadows spender in a Neph deck (from my limited experience). You need to be able to drop those 3 wards to have any chance against Roach, and they do good work against Daria Rune too. Beyond that, Undying Resentment is a no-brainer and Foul Tempest gets w...

Talozin, I believe that White Wolf published theses really really early in 3.0's life. Like so early that their Creature Collection came out before the Monster Manual. So they probably actually didn't know how to play the game.

Welp, as a long time MTG player who does not particularly like Hearthstone, you have me installing this now. The Izzet mage in me (Red/Blue) is particularly excited to see what the Runcraft faction is like. Good job :)

Thanks for the replies guys.

I had looked elsewhere on the net and not found a single negative comment on the system, but it didn't take long for you guys to find some major holes. That's why I keep lurking here, the lack of fanboi and the reasonable analysis.

Cheers.

Where are you seeing flight at 1st level? It is caster level 5 in Alteration and Telekinesis (for a small creature, requires 8 for a medium creature in telekinesis). I have to admit to not really delving into the advanced talents yet. It is true that the E8 (or E6) systems have a greatly reduced pro...

[Pathfinder] Spheres of Power

So in my never-ending interest in finding off the wall replacement systems for Pathfinder, I have been spending my holidays reading the Spheres of Power system. It is intended as a complete replacement of the Pathfinder Spellcasting system. It replaces spells with a series of at-will powers (divided...

I'd like to see someone do Underground from Mayfair games.

The adds in Dragon always fascinated me as a young teen (up until I hit my White Wolf phase and I promptly forgot about anything that was not pretentious bullshit for a few years).

Sigh. Thanks guys. I had realised that it was missing a few things (how Vital Strike works was the one that leapt out at me, as does rapid shot/manyshot), but good to know there are also a whole bunch of other problems there too. I wonder if it could work if you added back in a swift action to every...

Pathfinder Revised Action Economy

So, does anyone have any experience with this (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/other-rules/unchained-action-economy)? On first look, it appears to be an interesting take that makes combat a bit less static. Or is it complete garbage? It doesn't seem to be being talked about much, so I assume i...
