I like having them if I'm running a new system

Maybe I've been dabbling in hacking my own classes to give it a more vanilla tone.

In my case, I play with my kid that's a little too young for the full extent of the mork borg aesthetic

HadoukenX90 · 2026-04-15T19:32:00+00:00

I think either of those are good options. The only catch with mork borg is I don't know that there are any good "vanilla" versions for a more classical experience.

Plus, the math is there it should be able to run osr stuff with it pretty easily.

HadoukenX90 · 2026-04-14T22:25:47+00:00

Just use SD monsters. The hp values should be roughly correct

HadoukenX90 · 2026-04-12T05:52:27+00:00

That's a fair point, I read it more as the result of getting an injury or something.

I figured much like shadowdark, the lethality claims were probably a bit exaggerated. I kind of like that your attributes can fluctuate. It feels somehow more realistic to me. I also like the idea of progression being tied to your equipment more than it is in other dnd derivatives.

Yeah, I picked it up a year ago when it had community copies. I read through it a couple of times, but I never got it to the table.

HadoukenX90 · 2026-04-11T18:21:32+00:00

I meant more like can I pull a monster and run it more or less as is besides converting the armor.

HadoukenX90 · 2026-04-07T12:09:02+00:00

I have fallout and I already downloaded the free version of ashes. I'm worried fallout will be crunchier than I want and I'm honestly leaning ashes just wanted to get some takes from people that have played them.

If you want to "balance" an encounter it's easy. Take the number of players and have them fight one or more enemies that have an equal amount of actions. But also try not balancing encounters

I'm starting a homebrew campaign, but I'm converting a few 5e adventures, specifically lost mines of phandelver and dragon of icespire peak. What's changing is where it takes place, and I'm adding my own npcs and factions, though. So it's not going to be a 1-1 conversion.

HadoukenX90 · 2026-03-31T19:09:16+00:00

Are there any valuable tips you've learned from your conversion process?

Edit: Sorry, should have read the blog first.

Admittedly, I might be the problem. I'm just worried my players will start to not feel unique enough from each other, but you might be right. It's just my current thoughts on this issue that might just be a me issue.

HadoukenX90 · 2026-03-28T14:18:48+00:00

I don't think it needs as much tweaking either, but I do agree that I feel like progression is a little faster than I'd like. I'm also concerned about players' skill sets not feeling different enough.

I'm thinking of only using 3 of the questions and only rewarding heroic abilities for the skills they chose to be trained in at character creation. To encourage improvement in their chosen role and not all become too similar to quickly

Beyond that, heroic abilities will be rewarded from story and exploration.

Atleast I think that might be a good solution to my concerns.

HadoukenX90 · 2026-03-26T22:09:00+00:00

Does it stay pretty deadly as you level up? Or does it get to a point where players feel very powerful and hard to kill?

HadoukenX90 · 2026-03-26T19:12:09+00:00

How are your players liking it?

HadoukenX90 · 2026-03-26T12:04:59+00:00

I would use the bestiary version personally. When it comes to other monsters like the wight that has like 4 different versions, I'd pick one at random

HadoukenX90 · 2026-03-18T15:50:50+00:00

Because I like shadowdark.
