Does shadzar think that there were literal wizards and magic-casting clerics back in the 1400s? With him, I actually can't be sure he doesn't. This word vomit about medieval and what stuff should be core and what stuff should be optional and his boner for an absurdly-limited paradigm of what setting...

Where does it say that zombies can't be polymorphed? I don't see that anywhere in the Baleful Polymorph text, the Zombie template text, or the Undead type text. Anyway so the process caps out at a 16HD zombie cat after fully five castings of Animate Undead and four castings of Baleful Polymorph. And...

Except even at level 1 combats are over before three rounds is up. And they're spending a truly insane amount of resources to do so. At level 1, color spray, sleep, and silent image win entire encounters at the cost of one spell and some non-consumable actions. If you have the entire party spamming ...

Are you guys telling me that rather than dismotivating people, having obsolete options that they've once outgrown on the character sheet actually encourages and excites people? I thought I was fairly explicit that it does indeed dismotivate people, but that alternatives also include dismotivational...

the core of game design is ensuring there is no dominant strategy Eugh. No. There is ALWAYS a strategy that is maximal, by being better than equal to or incomparable to every other strategy. In most games, for combat at least there is actually a finite possibility space. There's finitely many possi...

There's gonna be some unhappiness no matter which of the options presented we choose. The big problem is that there is a tension between having a big pile of tactically distinct options, which we like, and having a game that most players can easily wrap their heads around, which we also like. There ...

I'm trying to think how much of a difference it could ever make. So, we're assuming that monsters have 6-7 HP per level. So, at level 10, monsters have 60-70 HP and your evocations to 1d10 + 45. So it always takes exactly two hits to drop the monster, no matter how you roll. Actually, even if you gi...
